Music

Numerous composers have worked on the music of games in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. Masato Nakamura of J-pop band Dreams Come True was responsible for the music of the first two 16-bit games. Ys/Streets of Rage composer Yuzo Koshiro composed the tunes for the first 8-bit title, barring what was retained from the 16-bit version.

Sega's in-house music company, Wavemaster, did the majority of the music in later titles. One Wave Master employee, Jun Senoue, is part of the band Crush 40, and through his ties to the band they have played the main theme tunes of the two Sonic Adventure games, Sonic Heroes, and Shadow the Hedgehog. Heroes and Shadow the Hedgehog also featured other bands, such as Julien-K. For the 2006 Sonic the Hedgehog game, Senoue and Crush 40 performed a remix of "All Hail Shadow" to play as Shadow the Hedgehog's theme for the game.

Richard Jacques, a frequent composer of music for Sega games, contributed to the soundtracks of Sonic R and the Saturn/PC version of Sonic 3D Blast: Flickies' Island. Runblebee has done songs for Sonic games such as Sonic Riders, the title theme and the Babylon theme, and the Sonic and the Secret Rings main theme, "Seven Rings In Hand".

Continuity

The events of Sonic the Movie are very different from the ones in the Sonic game continuity, and as such the movie's canonocity is sometimes disputed among fans. Newer, often American or European, Sonic fans sometimes jump to the conclusion that the anime is part of the official canon because it was created in Japan and overseen by Sega and Sonic Team. In some cases, the action portrayed in the movie is true to Sonic gameplay, particularly a scene with Sonic jumping on a spring while avoiding Badniks and obstacles in side-scrolling fashion, an intentional reference to Sonic 1-era games.

However, the movie contradicts several points of the game canon, such as Metal Sonic being destroyed, Knuckles having nothing to do with Angel Island, and most notacibly, the movie is not set on Earth. Sonic the Movie was possibly intended to be a vague telling of the happenings of Sonic CD or Mega Drive games, and it didn't widely differ from the game series at the time of its creation, but Sega has steered the continuity of Sonic in a different direction and retconned many elements of the 2D-era games since, making it possible to consider the movie an alternative universe or simply non-canon.

Since in 2003, 4Kids Entertainment licensed Sonic X for American U.S. licensing in a joint effort between 4Kids and VIZ Media (it was formerly with ShoPro Entertainment before ShoPro and VIZ, LLC merged into VIZ Media) and distributed by FUNimation. It is also shown in Europe, Australia, Israel, Brazil and Latin America by Jetix, and in Canada by YTV. Originally planned as a 52 episode series which would be inspired by the storylines of the Sonic Adventure series, Sonic X has now expanded to 78 episodes which were shown in Thailand, and France in February and March 2005. As of 2007, the series has supposedly ended its run, although there are rumors that the show may continue (see below). After almost a full season off the air in the US, Sonic X began a "new" run on May 5, 2007, starting with the series' first episode.
Since in 1999, While it was believed for a while that 65 episodes were made of which only 40 aired, Ben Hurst, a notable writer from the Sonic the Hedgehog television show (dubbed "SatAM" by fans), who was also involved in Sonic Underground's production, stated in a chat at the Sonic Amateur Gaming Expo (http://www.sagexpo.org) that only 40 were produced.

Sonic Underground takes place on Mobius, similar to SatAM, but with notable differences. Elements that are not included in Sonic Underground but were present in SatAM include Snively, power rings, Knothole Village, and the Freedom Fighters. Though the Freedom Fighters were included, many of the characters in the Freedom Fighter group that were in SatAM are completely left out (including Tails). Another difference with the Freedom Fighter group is that Freedom Fighters do not remain in one Knothole-like refuge but instead travel around Mobius to battle Robotnik's forces on a global scale; and that Robotnik has left most of the Mobian people unroboticised, leaving multiple cities, a poor underclass, and an aristocracy for the heroes to interact with. Also, unlike SatAM Sonic and AoStH, many of the minor characters were not easily recognisable as being based on Earth animals, instead appearing far more alien.

Jaleel White provided the voices for all three siblings. The main theme was composed by Robbie London and Mike Piccirillo. The musical underscore was composed by Jean-Michel Guirao and Mike Piccirillo. The series featured 40 songs spread over the series as featured music videos. Each of these songs were composed by Mike Piccirillo.

Animations

Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog (or AoStH for short) is an American animated television series that was first broadcast in September 1993, and ran in cartoon syndication for a number of years afterwards. It follows the escapades of Sonic and Tails as they stop the evil Dr. Ivo Robotnik and his array of vicious robots from taking over the planet Mobius. The plots very loosely followed the storyline of the video games series; at the time the Sonic games were still quite new, and lacking much plot or character development, which was in turn filled in by the show's writers.

The animated television series simply called Sonic the Hedgehog originally aired from September 1993 to June 1995. While Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog is known for its bright colors and whimsical humor, Sonic the Hedgehog featured darker stories which constituted a departure from the tone of the Sonic games of the time. To distinguish between the two series, fans typically refer to this series as SatAM because it was a Saturday morning cartoon while Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog aired on weekdays qnd recently on the radio in syndication, and using the show's full title would cause confusion in many situations because the series' title is the same as the character's name.

A two-episode OVA series based upon the game Sonic CD and the video game series as a whole, Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie was released in Japan in 1996 and released as an English dub in North America in 2000. Unlike the games, the film takes place on a world named Planet Freedom that, as with many anime series, appears to be a crossbreed of a fairytale land and Earth.

The cartoon Sonic Underground ran for only one season, 1998 to 1999; it bears little relation to other entries featuring Sonic (including previous games, comics and animated series), and shares few established characters. Forty episodes were produced and released. Unlike its predecessor, SatAM, the heroes do not remain in a sanctuary-like refuge but instead travel around Mobius to battle Robotnik's forces on a global scale. The Mobian civilization featured in the series includes multiple cities, a poor underclass and an aristocracy for the heroes to interact with. Sonic Underground is the only animated series based on Sonic where Tails has not made an appearance.

The anime Sonic X is the longest-running and most successful animated series based on Sonic to date. Originally a 52 episode series that would be inspired by the storylines of the Sonic Adventure series, Sonic X has since expanded to 78 episodes with the latest 26 episodes set primarily in outer space. The series borrows more from the games than any other Sonic cartoon before it; with the exception of Blaze the Cat, E-123 Omega, Babylon Rogues, Silver the Hedgehog, and Metal Sonic, every significant and playable video game character has made an appearance in the series. Sonic X is also the only animated series to include Super Sonic.

Marketing

The first teaser trailer was first released in July 2, 2006 attached from The Lake House and 4 Kids on Fox by animation film from TMNT produced by Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie released in USA in 1999 and followed by next film, Sonic X: The Shadow Snow releases in 2008. In November 2006, The first animation was showing from pictures from Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) and Sonic Heroes retype a film poster with Sonic within his main friends, behind was Raven Radix preparing for himself to destroy the world as for Sonic was the leader. The film has been based on tv series, Sonic X that was not yet available in 2007. Lewis has been announced the voiced actors, Jason Griffith, Amy Palant, Dan Green, Lisa Ortiz, Kathleen Delaney, Mike Pollock, Rebecca Honig, Bella Hudson, Alexandra Williams and Marc Thompson on November 2006. The music themes has been created from Sonic history games would used for an Sonic X: The Movie video game following from Sonic Rivals 2 released in autumn 2007. Even for the main items from movie appears to be collecting all 11 main action figures characters from store, Burger King.
The story follows a giant mecha (known as Black Eggman in the Japanese version and Evil creature born in 6000 years ago in English dub) who appears in planet ploto (called Raven Radix in English dub as a tie-in with the Sonic cartoon) and banishes the doctor. The mecha takes control of Eggman's robotic army, to lure Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy and the rest of the gang were into the evil dimension, the Land of Darkness. Once there, the blue blur defeats city, who turns out to be Eggman himself who lured Sonic to his base in order to copy his memories and knowledge for his new villain, Raven RADIX an evil Sonic-shaped creature who shares his memories and feelings, and essentially lives the same life as Sonic himself.

In the English dubbed version, the two regions are referred to as being "separate dimensions", most likely due to a translation error.

The Land of the Sky consists of an unknown number of continents that drift high in the stratosphere of the planet, all of them connected to a massive ice formation (referred to in the dubbed version as a glacier, but more likely a mountain) which also serves to anchor them to the planet's surface below, much like the Little Planet from Sonic the Hedgehog CD. According to Knuckles of this continuity, if this ice network was destroyed, Planet Freedom's rotation would hurl the Land of the Sky into outer space, undoubtedly killing everyone on it.

The Land of Darkness is the title used to address the actual surface of Planet Freedom, a post-apocalyptic wilderness where only one known individual lives: Dr. Eggman. Most of its terrain is untamed and mountainous, but Sonic and Tails eventually reach a very modern city, where they see that the ruins of buildings are crumbling into the sea. This is where Robotnik's empire of Eggmanland is located (landmarks strongly suggest that it resides in what was once Manhattan). The Land of Darkness may earn its name because the thick clouds that block out most of the sun's light. Despite its gloom, the Land of Darkness is quite verdant, though all of its regions are littered with deadly booby-traps and killer robots designed by Eggman. The Land of Darkness can only be accessed in one of two ways: by a whirlwind-like "portal" in the Land of the Sky, or by chancing into a warp zone; an extradimensional link between two points on Planet Freedom. The city and look of the land strongly imply that planet freedom is a post apocalyptic Earth that was built upon with floating islands known as the land of the sky.

Book Series & Toy line

In September 2005, Archie Comics, publishers of the North American Sonic the Hedgehog comics started a Sonic X The Movie comic book based on Sonic X. According to writer Joe Edkin, the first nine issues will take place in the TV continuity between episodes 32 and 33, which falls between the Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 story lines. After this, the stories' chronological positions will vary for some time, although in progressively later points in the series. The series is based off the English version, though for the most part fits the continuity established in the original Japanese version.

The 4Kids version of the show was backed up by a toyline. The early figures in this line were in fact re-releases of an earlier Sonic Adventure toyline, criticised by many for awkward poses and poor sculpting. The line has currently moved onto more accurate and updated figures. Taking a concept from the popular Marvel Legends toys, one wave presents each of the 5 characters in it with part of a generic E-Series robot. Fans who buy the whole wave can complete the robot as a 'bonus' figure. Further waves include the re-release of the first wave with the addition of a special keychain, the Space Fighters collection (depicting the characters in science fiction-style armour) and the Chaos Emeralds collection.
