The official Sonic the Hedgehog social media account posted a comic created by Hololive Vtuber Inugami Korone. Korone was announced as an official Sonic ambassador back in 2022 and has since been involved with several collaborations with Sega.
The comic appears as part of the “Fast Friends Forever” segment, which presents comics drawn by notable Sonic fans followed by short segments where they talk about their relation to the franchise. The segment has previously featured voice actress Yuuki Aoi (Shuten Douji in Fate, Madoka Kaname in Puella Magi Madoka Magica), and VOFAN (Illustrator for the Monogatari light novels).
In her question segment following the comic, Inugami Korone stated that her first experience with Sonic the Hedgehog was in 2021, when she played the original game on Mega Drive/Genesis. She also noted that her favorite character is Knuckles, citing his cool name and gloves as reasons.
You can find Korone’s comic, as well as the Q&A segment, in the tweets below:
As well as the comic, other Sonic and Korone collaborations included her appearance at the 2023 Sonic Square Event and her Sonic-inspired outfit revealed back in 2022. Meanwhile, film director Jeff Fowler teased the appearance of Shadow the Hedgehog in the upcoming movie Sonic the Hedgehog 3.
