Guys Shadow is literally an amphibian now
He started his life in liquid (test tube juice), and now can live both in water and on land.
OKAY TIME TO LOSE MARBLES FELLAS
Something about the new trailer of Shadow Generations has really given a harsh reminder (albeit also a cool one) about the reality of who and what Shadow the Hedgehog is. How he was made. What he's literally, physically made of. What kind of freakish powers lay deep within him because of how he was created. And it's. Freaking. AWESOME!!!
This post wouldn't be complete without screenshots from the trailer!
First off, OOF. Watching Black Doom seemingly trigger Shadow's *cough* special abilities, was terrifying. It looks horribly painful for Shadow. He was mostly clutching his head but grabbed at his chest/stomach as well at one point. Makes me wonder if he even knew about these kinds of powers he literally had inside him. 😬🔥 Also, did y'all see the words "colony Ark" appear across the screen briefly?! It's in the first screenshot I have there!! 💥💥
OOOHOOOHOOOO LOOK AT THIS DUUUUDE THE BRIGHT RED GLOWING SINGULAR EYE JUST BEFORE HE LUNGES!!! I WANNA MAKE A DRAMATIC SILHOUETTE REDRAW OF THIS!!!
Why is he so dark and edgy and cool and alndckalnfkwaldmal HE HAS THE FIERCEST EXPRESSIONS AND THE INTENSITY IN HIS EYES ESPECIALLY RIGHT BEFORE HE KICKS THE VIEWER HALFWAY ACROSS THE WORLD HAHAHAHAAAAAA THE ULTIMATE LIFEFORM 🔥🔥🔥❤️🖤
*slams piano into ocean* WHY!!! IS!! HE!! SO!! FREAKING!! COOL!!!!???? 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm about as normal about Shadow with wings as I was back when we first found out - that is to say I'm not normal about it in the slightest. I'VE BEEN WAITING SO LONG TO BE ABLE TO REDRAW IT!!!! HE LOOKS SO EXTRA COOL WITH THEM ESPECIALLY SINCE THEY'RE NOT PRETTY WINGS IN THE SLIGHTEST. THEY'RE TWISTED AND DARK AND ARE JUST TERRIFYING BUT THAT'S WHY THEY'RE COOL 💥💥💥💥
LOOK AT THIS!!! SHADOW BRAINROT IS REAL AKSMCMSKDNCMKASNFNMAKWNDMXKAWNNFMSWKNDND
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥🖤❤️🖤❤️🖤❤️🖤❤️🖤❤️🖤❤️
I finished my comic with Night! It's tearing my heart out honestly.
Quick context: Basically Night gets kidnapped by a villain who is curious about Shadow's alien DNA. She experiments on Night and infuses him with energy or whatever, causing him to grow wings like Shadow's Black Arms form. Shadow and Whisper show up before she can do anything else. Shadow leaves Whisper to beat up the villain while he goes to find Night because he can search the facility faster.
😭😭😭😭😭
Shadow and Whisper take him home obviously, it takes a couple days before the wings shrink down into his back again. Once Night's older, he's able to control his Black Arms form fully and can use it in an extreme emergency.
Oooohhhhhhhhh I just realized that if Shadow can sprout wings and who knows what else, my fankids for him might have those same abilities...
*NEW ANGST IDEA UNLOCKED*
ACK THIS CONCEPT IS KILLING ME RN
Like there's no way those wings sprouting out of your back aren't painful so um yeah I'm torturing a child rn I'M SORRY NIGHT
Oooohhhhhhhhh I just realized that if Shadow can sprout wings and who knows what else, my fankids for him might have those same abilities...
*NEW ANGST IDEA UNLOCKED*
Kinda thought the black liquid from the game fest trailer was his blood splatters whenever his release his wings.
I just rewatched that trailer and you're right, that does look very blood like. Shadow having black blood would be so cool and creepy!
Either way, I just love the angst potential of the wings graphically ripping out of his back. I'm not into gore whatsoever, but there should definitely be some sort of blood with that violent of a transformation!
Okay but like what if the red on the ends of Shadow's wings are actually blood from them ripping out of his back tho
I swear the concept of Sonic X Shadow Generations is so funny because it's like:
Sonic's story: Let's take a fun little trip down memory lane! Sonic gets to interact with his younger self! Let's go save all our friends!
Shadow's story: What if Shadow got to relieve all the worst days of his life and also experience body horror
This is why Shadow doesn't come to any parties Sonic is involved in
There’s just… something so insane about seeing this image, and being able to post it, and being able to say it’s the coolest thing I’ve seen all year so far
