Sonic being stronger than Shadow is so not true. And Shadow calling Sonic the ultimate life form is a dubbing error. Plus, I think Silver is more inspired by Cable from MARVEL comics. Being inspired and being a ripoff are two completely different things.

Exactly

Just to spread somore awareness, Sonic's design mentioned in the video was the modified western design by Greg Martin. Sonic's original design was from Japan, and was changed during the localization process. It was the base for Toei Sonic in the Sonic CD intro. That said, Sonic CD would likely have been many Americans' introduction to the more standard Sonic design during that time period, so the confusion is completely understandable. All in all tho, sick vid! I actually never truly understood all the discussions, but this was informative!

@@SonicIsTheGoat14 Actually Dragon ball took like not much insperation from comics. Cell and the entire cell and android arc was all original from Toriyama as he wanted to put sciencefiction in his creation and he tought about time travel making the entire arc inspired by nothing. Actually even the frieza saga was not really inspired by anything and more so wanting to further the story. The buu arc was inspired by a few things but not comics. Goku black was inspired by Goku Ginyu and wanting to make an arc out of it. T.O.P. Universe 6 tournament BOG and RF were also just all original. And same goes for Granola arc and Moro arc. So yeah DBZ was barely inspired by anything and super is pretty much original. And DB is inspired by journey to the west. Btw Sonic isn't a ripoff of dragon ball however it did take alot of insperation from dragon ball.

Fiction was always inspired by other fiction, since the dawn of storywriting. Inspiration =/= ripoff If it was the case, then Goku would've ripped off Sun Wukong at the beginning of the Dragon Ball, and by the start of Z, he became a copy of Superman.

Thanks for clarifying this that yes. Inspiration is different from ripping off. Inspiration is looking at something and taking ideas from it while not making it a 1 by 1 copy, more than likely will be different to it's original counterpart in some way. Ripping off is straight up copying someones homework on paper. In this case say if the chaos emeralds granted wishes instead of the form itself and you could argue the super form is a rip off however it also works differently from super saiyan and as of frontiers and a few other games has an entirely different moveset.

It certainly doesn't help that DBS Broly made his backstory EVEN MORE similar to Superman.

The answer is no. While there are similarities, like Silver, the Chaos Emeralds and Super Sonic. They aren’t direct copies. Even Shadow and Vegeta aren’t direct copies. If you look at Shadows backstory he has amnesia and is trying to get revenge by destroying the world. Shadow wants to destroy the world because he thinks that’s what Maria wants, Vegeta wanted to destroy earth because he wanted the Dragonballs. There’s no deep reason why Vegeta wanted to do this other then to defeat Frieza. We see at the end of SA2 Amy begs with Shadow to see the good in humanity and give them a chance, Shadow remembers what Maria ACTUALLY wanted and it was to protect humanity. Shadow goes super to help Sonic stop Space Colony Ark and dies in the process asking if Maria if he fulfilled her wishes. Vegeta is nothing like this, even when they are fighting Frieza, he wants revenge because Frieza killed the Saiyans. After when Frieza is dead we see Vegeta is still cold hearted and doesn’t really care for anyone, when we get to the Buu arc Vegeta grows and cares for his family and the earth but this is in an entirely different way then Shadow. Shadow went from a complete nihilist to a hero in the span of one game. This isn’t even mentioning Shadow the Hedgehog where we get the most insight on his character.

@@RiasGremoryS54 You are correct sonic is inspired by goku BUT They didn’t steal anything

For me, Silver is similar to Trunks but isn't much of an exact copy or inspiration. 1. Silver came back to the past timeline because the antagonist of 06 (Mephiles) told him to do so. Trunks however just decided to do that. Another massive difference is that Silver's purpose during 06 was to kill Sonic, the protagonist, but Trunks went to the past to help Goku, who is also a protagonist. 2. Trunks isn't seen mostly in the present timeline as he is supposed to belong in the future otherwise he could potentially ruin the whole db timeline. Except for Silver, he is always present in the present timeline ever since 06 and it doesn't seem to be messing up Sonic's timeline at all. 3. Number 3 is a pretty obvious one. Silver can use telekinesis and can glide in the air at times. Trunks uses his sword and flies around most of the time. This is a big difference that many leave out when talking about this. Nobody sees Silver with a sword and neither does anyone see Trunks move objects with the power of his hand.

@@user-tn2uf4ow4f i can see that but a major difference is that Silver got tricked by a person to kill Sonic, whilst Trunks had his mind fool him into thinking that Goku was Goku Black since they are similar.

I said it before, and I'll say it again. The Sonic franchise does have a few inspirations from Dragon Ball, and denying that is just being in denial. BUT, there's exist a huge amount of differences to the point the similarities are pretty far and in-between. Silver was inspired by Trunks. I'm pretty sure there's even an official source for that. However, the two characters are drastically different. Trunks is basically just a regular saiyan. He's from the future, but he's no different than say Goku and Vegeta...just weaker. He's experienced and confident when we first see him. He knows what he needs to do, and he does it...when others don't get in his way. Silver is a hedgehog, but he's completely different from Sonic and Shadow. He doesn't even share their moves, instead having his own unique fighting style and set of abilities. Silver is a naive boy who got nervous when Blaze wasn't around the first time they got separated. He's lost, unlike Trunks, he didn't go back to save the hero. He got manipulated and went back to kill him. The two only share the "destroyed future from a threat and goes back in time to stop it". But their deeper purpose, personalities, comparison with their peers, and so forth are just too different to call Silver a clone.

Another big difference between silver and trunks is how they're usually presented. in vs shows like death battle, you guys know the xeno vs archie one? Well, it's basically a fight between strongest offense vs strongest defense. Trunks has the upper hand when he's up close. Same with Silver when at a distance. Ofcourse, silver can slip pass trunks while trunks can power through. Trunks has fighting edge, while Silver has the environment. And that's kind of what dragon ball and sonic the hedgehog is all about. One franchise is good for the superpowered fights and beat 'em ups, while the other is good for using environment and traversal. It's probably why don't see much strength feats coming from knuckles when compared to sonic's speed feats. B'cuz it ain't about the beat' em ups like dragon ball. (Another reason is that these characters are not handled pretty well in the series.) Though, I can't say the same about frontiers and idw.

The Chaos Emeralds were always meant to be a collectable power up. Sure Super Sonic is similar to Super Saiyan, but there's also the fact sonic NEEDS the chaos emeralds to do that transformation. Really the only similarity is that sonic turns yellow and his hair sicks up, but that being said, there are lots of characters that have their hair start to float when they power up due to their "aura". For some reason, in dragon ball I never feel like his hair is actually flying up, more like it just points up for some reason, because his hair never really has to much physics, but Sonic's quills do.

Hey trycolden i love ur videos ive been a fan for a long time!

Short answer no. The chaos emeralds, and super sonic while inspired and are a direct homage to super sayain and the seven dragon balls are the only similarities these two franchises really have outside of fighting literal gods. They have no real similarities out side of that, with maybe the adception of Siliver and Trunks, but even than dragon ball didn’t create the trop of a hero going back in time to save their future.

While they aren't exact copies of each other, i feel that both Sonic and Dragonball as a franchise share an unspoken mutual inspiration from each other throughout the years and could possibly still do to this day.

Sonic takes inspiration from just about everything. Shadow is an inspiration of Bass. Silver is Future Trunks. The Death Egg is inspired by the Death Star from Star Wars. Tails' flying ability is taken from Goku's ability to fly by using his tail during the 21st budokai tenkaichi. Sonic's super form is an inspiration of SSJ. The 7 chaos emeralds are just the 7 dragon balls with a different concept. Silver Sonic is a gag of mecha godzilla.

No doubt inspired, not a rip off. Other people are already giving reasons, and I agree with them. The Mewtwo thing was interesting.

Sonic did NOT copy Dragon Ball! The only thing similar about the two series are the characters. Dragon Ball is heavily inspired by Sun Wukong and Superman. Sonic was created because Sega wanted to rival Nintendo’s mascot (Mario), but Sonic actually has way more connections to Wally West. Shadow is very similar to Mewtwo, but he actually has more connections to Adam Warlock, and Knuckles has some connections to Juggernaut. Goku and Sonic are friendly and prideful, but Goku is naive and idiotic, while Sonic is adventurous or egotistical depending on which version of Sonic it is. Vegeta is prideful and egotistical but never wins, while Shadow is edgy and stubborn but he sometimes wins. Some characters from DBS are similar to other Sonic characters, and even DC and Marvel. For example, the Goku Black Arc is similar to Sonic 06 because of the story, the characters (Goku Black and Zamasu are similar to Mephiles and Iblis), and how bad the writing was.

Sonic and Goku’s personalities are definitely during but similar in a few instances. But Sonic possesses more common sense than Goku. Also the 7 Chaos Emeralds are a node to the 7 Dragonballs. The Super Emeralds are a better version of the Chaos Emeralds as the Namekian Dragonballs are superior to the Earth’s Dragonballs. Super Sonic was definitely inspired by Super Saiyan. Both have genius friends with Tails and Bulma. Both have friends and former rivals that are connected with the Dragonballs/Chaos Emeralds with Piccolo and Knuckles. Plus both Goku and Sonic are both similar and partially inspired by Superman.

@@porobotboyxxx the only thing I disagree agree with is Sonic beings inspired by Superman. I can see a few connections for both, but they're not similar. Sonic is often compared to Goku, but Goku has more connections to Superman than Sonic. And I personally believe that Sally Acorn is more like Bulma than Tails is. Goku and Sonic have two best friends (Krillin and Tails) who they have grown up with and fought. Both also have rivals who were enemies at first, but then became frenemies (Vegeta and Shadow). Both also have time-traveler friends who come from the future (Future Trunks and Silver) and they are enemies who try conquer Earth no matter how many times they lose to the main protagonist (Frieza and Dr. Eggman).

The Saiyans do have similarities with the hedgehogs.. although, their intent comes in different ways. We compare them in our childhood and we always thought that if they crossed paths, they’d make good teams upon their instinct.

no😭crying rn Trunks is basically just a regular saiyan. He's from the future, but he's no different than say Goku and Vegeta...just weaker. He's experienced and confident when we first see him. He knows what he needs to do, and he does it...when others don't get in his way. Silver is a hedgehog, but he's completely different from Sonic and Shadow. He doesn't even share their moves, instead having his own unique fighting style and set of abilities. Silver is a naive boy who got nervous when Blaze wasn't around the first time they got separated. He's lost, unlike Trunks, he didn't go back to save the hero. He got manipulated and went back to kill him. The two only share the "destroyed future from a threat and goes back in time to stop it". But their deeper purpose, personalities, comparison with their peers, and so forth are just too different to call Silver a clone.

Everyone: Sonic vs Dragon Ball Also everyone: Sonic 🤝 Dragonball

Since the Sonic O6 game Shadow was a completely different person. I have proof : In Sonic Adventure (2001) final boss, Shadow had started respecting Sonic and even called him the ultimate lifeform. After 2006 Shadow appeared less in the games and mainly as a boss fight sometimes. And in his short appearances he used to call Sonic weak and boosted himself about being the ultimate life form. Like what happened to him saying to Sonic that he is the must be the ultimate life form. (6:04).

Why do people even care about all of this? Both did good job on their franchises, so why do we care about all of that?

I consider Metal Sonic as Sonic’s true rival, he’s perfect and people want Shadow instead, so sega leaves him in the trash wich makes him even less popular I mean, metal sonic is litterally built by eggman, the main villain of the sonic series, he’s made to be an exact replica.

The only similarity between them is that they are both from the future. Their reasons for going to the past are different, there personalities are different(Trunks is a lot more serious or emotional while Silver is more naive and funny type), Trunks has mainly the same abilities as Goku and Vegeta while Silver has many different abilities from Sonic and Shadow.

The only one I truly think was copied for Dragon Ball was Silver. Sonic and Shadow are only similar to Goku and Vegeta because they both are similar character types. Sonic/Goku, being the fun loveing goof ball that is always down for a good time (be it fighting or an adventure) and Shadow/Vegeta are the edgey loner types that will work with others but will always prefer to do things their way.
