Shadow the Hedgehog is a major antagonist in the Sonic Boom spinoff series.

He is the rival of Sonic the Hedgehog, who seeks to prove his superiority over him in every way. He is also notably darker and more villainous than his mainstream counterpart.

He was voiced by Kirk Thornton.

What Makes Him a Base Breaking Character?[]

What Do People Like About Him?[]

  • He is a powerful fighter and a genuine threat to the heroes, raising stakes whenever he appears.
  • He is one of the few characters whose redesigns didn't draw massive complaints, due to not differing too much from his main series counterpart.
  • While his voice in the games and the first season of TV show was criticized, Kirt Thornton's performance in Season 2 earned some appraisal.

What Do People Hate About Him?[]

  • He is criticized for being two-dimensional and having no role other than that of Sonic's arrogant rival, devoid of his main series counterpart's complexity.
  • Him being an outright villain instead of an aloof anti-hero and lacking any sort of backstory or sympathetic qualities is considered too unfaithful to the source material by some fans.

Trivia[]

  • He was originally on the Scrappy Wiki due to being hated by fans for being a flanderized version of the character. However, after time had passed, some fans had warmed up to him.
    • He was once the Delete template in the Scrappy wiki.
