[SFM] Cherished Companion
Фильм және анимация
Towards the tail end of last year a lot of comments seemed to want a sequel to Disposable Design, so after giving it some thought I put this together and I hope you enjoy this little continuation ^^ And if you're curious the 300k sub special is still in the works, I'll be most excited to show you that one when it's complete!

The concept of Tails rebuilding and repurposing the original Metal Sonic as a guardian of the Chao and their Gardens, is pretty cool and wholesome.

I suspect that (mini) metal Sonic may become what he never could under Robotnik because while sentient and one of if not the most advanced badniks ever made, Robotnik doesn’t foster his ability to learn- not even his enemy- to any significant degree. Robotnik used him like a tool- not a being that needs interaction to become better as intended.

@@watch50er yay, we saw that in the mainline games, after Metal became increasingly intelligent and powerful, Eggman stripped him of his Neo form, despite his ability to almost conquer the world, solely because Metal could not be fully controlled by Eggman as long as the had the Neo abilitys.
This truly shows why Metal Sonic claims himself to be the real Sonic because he doesn't only have his Sonic's speed but also a big heart like Sonic does. He truly is a real Sonic

Sequel to this animation
I knew Metal Sonic had a good heart...or good circuitry? You guys know what I mean. Great video as usual!!
even without using a single word in a single video you demonstrated so much expression and emotion, that is a lot of talent
I always wanted to see the Classic Metal Sonic becoming a "Cherished Companion". Now that I have seen the video. I give this video a perfect 10. I love seeing it. It is fun, funny and cute. I want to see more videos like this. The thing that touched me about this video is, when Classic Metal Sonic becoming a guardian of the Chaos. I love this video.
This was such a fun video! I loved the how the music and the actions all played off so well together. Also that ending lol

Why did metal walk like a baby when he was regenerated or something
i'll never look at Metal the same way ever again
I love how the rebuilt Metal Sonic (or our “Cherished Companion” aka CC) is treated with such care and kindness by the others. Tails works hard to make sure CC is working the best they can be and to keep it that way, not just so that CC can work well for them all, but so that CC is “healthy” in a way. Tails is encouraging to CC’s growth and is almost like a caregiver for CC. Cream treats CC with unwavering kindness and Cheese clearly trusts CC, and Chao are great at telling someone’s character. CC comes to love the Chao thanks to Cheese and Cream. Sonic is confused at first, but once he knows what’s going on, he treats CC like any other friend of his. No prejudice or bias towards CC for the past, just his usual kind, lighthearted attitude and light teasing. He even (seemingly) invites CC along for an adventure, much to CC’s excitement. And, even better, CC is given the chance to choose who they are, and what they want to do. Heck, they’re even encouraged to do so. In the end, they *choose* to love and protect the Chaos.

This comment really made my day, I so appreciate your analysis of how everyone contributed to CC's new lease on life! It makes me happy that these animations were able to convey that to you without words ^^
Im honestly hqppy to see people animate or create stories of a different metal thats friendly, or in this case, a broken metal made and learned good in opposition of the metal who started the good metals life in the first place [In short, im saying this was awsome -w-]
PLEASE, WE NEED A THIRD EPISODE. MAKE THIS A SERIES!
My only critique is the wobbly camera. The movements and animation has greatly improved. Love watching your work! ^^

It’s like seeing into an alternate reality. The metal sonic from eggmans’ control has run into the metal sonic that had his life liberated and cherished. The replaceable sonic and the one that is his own being and is loved. Seeing each other is a showing of what is and what could have beens.

Now that was adorable I always love metal he was my favorite character of all time and I'm always glad to see him as a good guy
Loved every second of this, Mike, great job!
Awww this is so wholesome abd it puts a smile on my face, sega why cant we get a game where we see the other side of metal sonic
Such a neat idea I'm absolutely hooked! I hope more comes out from this particular metal sonic story
so classic metal sonic turned to a friendly robot?
This should be a full blown series!
Really nice and funny a times in this video with Good Metal Sonic. Like the soft side of him with the others in this video of yours. Glad to see your work back on here once more, Mike. Don't know when your next video will be, but I hope it's good.

This Video was Beautiful, I love it X3
Awesome animation! Looks like Metal Sonic can finally have at least a friendly rivalry with the real Sonic! Personally, if I were Sonic, I would perceive Metal Sonic as a worthy foe. If there was a mutual problem that both Metal and I would face, the 2 of us would have to work together to solve the mutual problem. If anything were to happen to Metal, I would mourn his demise (similar to the ending of the OVA movie), as I would never want him to perish before finally developing enough of a heart to develop a true friendship (or at least a friendly rivalry) with me. Matter of fact, I could even say the same thing about Eggman.
Metal knows that he cannot escape his life in his fate but his older version can’t escape and so he gives a parts3 Kouns to repair him
Aww, Metal is soo cute here. You really did a fantastic job.
Thank you so much this animation made my day😊
Eggman will not like what Tails make to your robot
Freaking awesome & heartwarming. 💜
I love this video good work!
I remember how when I was a kid, after seeing the ending of the OVA movie, as well as how Sonic offered Metal Sonic a rematch at the end of Sonic Heroes, I really wanted Metal Sonic to be a good guy. Nice to see him as one here.
I really like seeing that Metal Sonic is friendly, nice animation!
2:41 i think modern metal sonic wanted classic metal sonic to join him, but when he saw that metal change…. He just leave….. to let him life a second life 🥺
Nice to know you added collision choas good future jp
Before: Modern & Classic Sonic Team Up. After: Modern vs. Classic Metal Sonic Battle.
I love your videos they are amazing and that I am a Sonic fan I always love watching your videos.

Awesome animation! :D
I love your videos I'm subscribed and watched all of your videos can you please make a video about hypersonic I would love that.
That was an adorable animation! 🥰
I love it so much hands down the best animation if all time
This is a well done animation and tiny or classic metal is cuteee
i find this series very heartwarming 😭😭😭😭
Awesome animation!
I love it. Keep going, original Metal Sonic deserves a resurgence in mainline games. A idea of original Metal Sonic rebuild for something better is awesome to behold. Hope We could see more interaction between Original & morden Metal Sonics like brothers tried to reunite with each other,no matter what Eggman wants

Awww It was cute I love your video :3 ❤️
In 2:39,Classic Metal meet Modern Metal and They says: Modern:Bro...brother? Classic:*Look those mini-Eggmobile kidnapped Chaos and Save Them* Modern:WAIT! Classic:*Save all chaos and Said*Go away,Ass****! Modern:*Sad and Fly away*
metal sonic becoming an ally to the chaos garden is pure genius
Most adorable killing machine
Me: Okaayy... That was... weeiird... Metal Stormer: Looks like Metal Sonic, the classic one anyway, is on Sonic's side. Me: Yeah. You can say that again. Cynder: But, wasn't that just so cute? Me: I guess I agree with you.
Chaos would feel safe knowing his fellow Chao are safe. Classic Metal and Modern Metal side by side is an interesting concept.
Aaaawww that was so sweet & wholesome 😊 Not gonna lie, the music in the beginning always unsettles me. Plus the black & white flashback. Creepy O_O Now time for sth sweet. Classic Metal Sonic is like a little child & his new big brother Tails is taking care of him & teaching him ^w^ And when he pets the chao. My heart melted X3 I'm really getting Shadow the hedgehog & Generations vibes here. And starting to feel bad for Metal. Also thanks to the sad music. Now the question is: Who's the real metal Sonic ? Can we trust him ? Are there more ? I really wonder what's going on inside modern Metal's head.

Aww thank you so much! Yeah it is a pretty unsettling song but one I feel suits the mad Dr. Eggman in his hey day. Setting up his bond with Tails and the Chaos at the end was definitely my favorite part to work on! And this definitely leaves a lot for Metal to consider, he saved his past self by giving him to Tails, but what will it mean when they clash?
0:52 Green Coca-Cola.
I hope to see this story continue
Awesome!
Just a bit of a headcanon as to where this could lead in the future. Classic Metal, after seeing what his more up to date version was doing, became repulsed in the idea of sharing a look as him and started to draw up a new design that he wished Tails would update him with, changing his body to match Shadow's in height and quill shape, with a primarily black paint job as well, but using yellow for his accents instead of red. He received a voice box with his first word being his new name, "Shard, " the bot uttered in a voice somewhere between Sonic's lighthearted tone and Shadow's more subdued and serious tone, "I am Shard the Metal Sonic, guardian of the Chao." Modern Metal, seeing his younger self step into a life all his own, decided that it was time he claimed his freedom again, becoming Neo Metal once more he flew off into the night to craft a plan to bring an end to the pain that he and his 'brother' share.
