I like the Japanese and American elements of the series, but it's clear most people who like one or the other, well, only likes one or the other.

>kill the all or nothing bullshit okay? that's why sonic team is shit
No, I'm aware it doesn't have to be all or nothing but the way the games are set up it definitely is.
I'm judging it based on the game's characterizations of her pretty much from anything in the dark ages. To be honest I don't even care that much about her swooning over Sonic period, because it's old at this point and the flanderization has soured my taste for it completely, she should either be his girlfriend or get rid of that unnecessary character point period; or at the very least make it quite minor.
>it's nice to have a character who likes sonic openly and was inspired to become a more courageous person because of it
I don't like shonen tropes with the "power of love" bullshit, it's just corny to me especially since it's played as one sided or boringly ambiguous. It's partially the reason why Amy was never as popular as Tails, Knuckles, and Shadow in the West.
>now we're talking about modern amy? which is it?
I was talking about both modern games amy and classic games amy, which I don't really like either the design of.

>I don't think she looks better at all. Amy's game design looks much more in line with the rest of the characters and doesn't have weeb characteristics so exaggerated that I'd say she looks like "weeb trash".
No she doesn't, the characters are based off heavy pop culture references and have street or causal wear, or motifs heavily based on Western cartoons at least the classic cast; do I have to explain this really?
>What do you mean with this in terms of character designs? And while you're on it, it'd be interesting to discuss that in a general way too. What "street and pop culture aesthetics" you see when you look at GHZ, Chemical Plant, Lava Reef Zone, Ice Cap Zone, or whatever other zone you want? In some cases I could see it, like those based on real life things like the casino zones, but otherwise?
Dude, it's the fact Sonic was based on Michael Jackson and Bill Clinton ,the fact that Knuckles has a nike symbol on his chest, the fact that every character wore tennis shoes, the fact that the music had heavy New Jack Swing and R&B influence, the fact that Sega was marketed to the urban crowd back in the 90s, the fact Sonic itself is heavily based on Americana, ect ect.
Are you a Modern fan or something?
