Sonic Colors English vs Japanese script

[Miles Storzillo]

Personally, I greatly prefer the Japanese.  The English script just makes me want to slam my head in my door.  It's so immature.  There are 2 scenes I especially detest.  1: The scene before the Aquarium Park boss.  2nd: (Groans) Baldy Nosehair.  I am not kidding (though when do I?) when I saw outside of Teen Titans Go the English script is probably the worst thing in all of media I've ever heard.  That being said, because the body movement is still the same I find the Japanese one runs into an entirely new problem.

Of course, those are just my 2 cents.  How about you?

Mike Pollock as Eggman is always the highlight of any Sonic game in the 2010s. Roger's portrayal was kinda new at the time, but he didn't really take off like Ryan and Jason did. I don't blame the actors, they just didn't have much to work with the bad writing, and that's noticeable throughout the decade. The writing sorta got better in TSR towards the end of the decade, but even then it was mere bearable compared to what came before Colours.

The Japanese script is much more tolerable. For starters, the writing is always on point and doesn't rely of cheap,cringeworthy one-liners that mock the game and it's reliance of Sonic's revival. Sure, the animation stays the same, no fault on the writers, but the Japanese script's tone leans closely towards the likes of the Dark Age era. To me, that's what I like from Sonic games.
