My "Cool Running" doujinshi arrived today ^_^

As far as I can tell, it's based on/before Sonic 2, and basically it's the story of how Sonic and Tails met. I gathered that from the small snippets of Japanese I could read... such as Tails staring wide-eyed at the Tornado, saying "Sugoi!" ("cool!"). Also, it looked like Tails kept calling Sonic "Sonic-san", and Sonic kept telling him to just call him 'Sonic' ^^; Aww.

Anyway, it's a cute doujinshi. But as usual, they misspelled a lot of the names in English. I can't really blame them, but still... you'd think they could look up the correct spellings since they're used on official merchandise everywhere :P Knuckles was "Knockles" (no 'uh' sound in Japanese, so I guess 'oh' is closer than 'oo' n.n;), Miles Prower was "Mails Prower" (again, makes sense phonetically - ma-i-ru-su = mails XD), and Rosy the Rascal (Amy) was "Losy the Rascal" XD Weird thing is, other times they spelled them right ^^; Oh well...

The back page had human versions of Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy and Metal. I'm not big on human versions of the Sonic characters, but I do like how they did Sonic's hair n.n Maybe I'll scan in that page.

There's also a page with a Pokémon comic on it o.o Ash, Misty, Brock, Gary... and Onix O.o

There's a small mini comic where Sonic kicks Tails and he lands on a spike-bed ;_; MEAN!

Oh yeah, and at the back there's a page with Sonic and Tails dressing up as a vampire and a wizard for Hallowe'en ^_^

The whole doujin is in old-school style (based on the art from the Sonic 2 era I guess), and the last page of the story says "To be continued..."... I wonder if they ever did? I haven't seen a sequel to this particular doujin, but y'never know o.o

It's awesome anyway ^^ ::Hugs it:: So, that brings my Sonic doujin collection up to a grand total of... two! :P Yay.

XD For some reason they got the 'R' in "Rascal" right... just not in "Rosy". Selective Engrish :P

I might ^^ The art's pretty simple... nothing fantastic. But it's still a great little doujinshi. I guess I could scan it in.

Gah, curse not having any time recently x.x

Anyway, it's awesome that it came in! The story of how they met and became best friends, eh? Badass, simply ^^

Why would Sonic kick Tails onto a spiked bed? o.o That's cruel! ;_;

Also, Onyx is a cool pokemon. At leasst Brock's was - I say this because it was the first one I ever drew well, I think =P
