>>41047 How about nine?

Tails is the best Sonic character. He can be used in any story and not feel forced, his main ability is woven into his design, easily recognizable silhouette as well as a great and unique color scheme. His backstory and motivations are simple and don't tie him down. Gameplay wise he's pretty fun in 2D, haven't been able to play as him in 3D. He also just... fundamentally works. Characters like Shadow, Blaze and Silver, which also have backstories, can't work in some settings. The story often needs to accommodate these characters in some way. But Tails is so flexible he's the go to for the supporting character His inventions and genius also serve him well. It can give the writer an easy excuse to give him new things to make and research, keeping things fresh similar to Eggman and his new robots. Of course it's not to the same extent as Eggman, but Tails' knowledge is also versatile. I really can't think of any flaws narratively wise. He's a character that grows and evolves, helping others and being friendly, and that simplicity makes him endearing

>>41283 Well said!

>>41284 Arigatou I'll take a break from 4chan for a while but I'll still check in on this place I thought about turning this thread into a "Tails information repository". Like having images of concept art, posts about Tails related info, kinda like a digital library. But this thread is mostly fan art and maybe it would muddy the waters a little

>>41285 Oh I think that's an interesting idea actually. I don't think this thread should be limited to fanart only just because that's how we've used it so far Maybe we can compile a list of everything that's been said about his creation >I'll take a break from 4chan for a while but I'll still check in on this place Oh alright! Any particular reason for that? Just curious

>>41286 >I don't think this thread should be limited to fanart only just because that's how we've used it so far I know but maybe it would be better to create a separate thread for this "project". Though having two Tails threads might bloat the catalog. Eh >Maybe we can compile a list of everything that's been said about his creation It could be used for anything really. Development info, concept art, general artwork, interviews, bios/profiles, trivia, etc. >Any particular reason for that? I really liked the Tailsposting of early 2025 but it seems that it fizzled out. Also there's too much obvious bait and shitposting and drama and general crap. I like this place better but there's barely anyone here lol. I'll still draw on the whiteboard occasionally. Speaking of I saw your drawing, pretty cool

>>41287 Makes sense, I feel the same way. The threads haven't been very good recently I'll look forward to your posts whether they're here or elsewhere And thanks! I'll finish it soon

Done! >>41295

>>41296 Cool!

Old fanart

>>41388 Classic Tails is so cute Well all Tailses are cute but still

>>41406 Of course <3

I just read that Sonic Team increased Tails' running speed for Team Attack Amigo. I wasn't sure if I believed it at first but I tried it myself and it seems to be true, it feels faster and better. I didn't notice before because I try to fly most of the time but it is a good change. I also just realized Tails' stages in the rest of the game don't make much use of dash panels, springs, and rails, but they are used much more often in Team Attack Amigo, and I think those also make Tails run faster on top of the increased running speed. In the base game I think the only Tails stage that uses them is Tails' Wave Ocean, which mainly uses dash panels and springs for some automated sections, but the playable parts still avoid using them. It seems the game design for Team Attack Amigo is a lot different than I realized, it's like they combined Sonic's style of level design with Tails'

>>41361 Tailsfag made this, Marine idolizes Sonic, she's friends with Blaze, but the whole >She's alternate reality Tails, so she has to be Blaze's sidekick is completely off the mark. Blaze wasn't even playable in her game until like, 4 hours in.

>>41472 You don't have any proof of this, and the character associations exist regardless both in and outside of the game

>>41473 There's a million lines of dialog in the game that you can infer their character from, what do you mean there isn't any proof?

Tails!

tails FUCKS

>>41646 True.

Fun fact: when asked to describe their ideal boyfriend, most people will give a description that matches Tails (>>41600)

The new chapter of Blade of Courage is great

Tails!
