TBF Team Sonic wasn’t trying to be anything groundbreaking.

This animation was very stunning. Writing, art design, Knuckles' portrayal, everything is just perfect! Ian Flynn, Tyson Heese, and the rest of the team did an excellent job making this beautiful animation. That makes Ian and Tyson a perfect team in the Sonic franchise.

Now *THIS* Is the Knuckles we know and love. The king has return!

Really glad they gave Knuckles a chance to shine in preparation for Frontiers. As the dude tasked with guarding the master emerald, it's always nice to show him as a threat to his opponents and not just a loveable meathead.

His thing was not even being meathead - he was easily tricked because he was "fish out of water" not because he is comedic levels of stupid as he was portrayed in 2010s.

You can tell Sam has most of these answers already but can't let on any of it.

Dave b mitchell really improved his Knuckles voice since Team Sonic Racing and Mario & Sonic at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. Love the adventure flashback and that Sky sanctuary is here with chao.

This is really cinematic. The way it turns around the "I like being alone" at the end, and how Knuckles really seems like a badass. It really sets up Sage a lot better as a ruthless heartless character than what we've seen of the game, and...overall, it's amazing.

Frontiers is giving me major cliffhanger ending vibes with the mood and story but especially the ending theme itself and I'm all for it

I still am in shock over the whole thing! I was not expecting to be transported back into the early 2000s, but man, seeing the Adventure lore and Knuckles FINALLY being himself again (in the games) after so long, is so refreshing. And of course the animation was outstanding, really want to see more of that in the future! I am so excited for this game, and this is a huge W for the Sonic community!! 😎

We all know you’ve completed frontiers Sam

To be honest, it's genuinelly incredible seeing how much the optimism for Frontiers gets better and better the closer we get to the release of the game. It's been a long way since the original reveal where everyone was distrustful and had no hope for the game.

Genuinely enjoyed this prologue, I got Sonic X vibes.

Dave Mitchell's Peformance of Knuckles in the Sonic Frontiers Prologue is amazing, I am so happy that his Knuckles voice that debuted in TSR was given a Chance to improve in the prolouge and Frontiers itself, and I think the animation is stunning, I really like the writing, art design, the portrayal of knuckles. I am glad that Tyson Hesse, Ian Flynn and the rest of the team did a great job at making the Sonic Frontiers: Prolouge animation and I hope that there is another Sonic animation when the next game after Sonic Frontiers releases.

Sam's trying so hard to not spoil anything

This is a first I'd never seen knuckles spin dash in an animation before

IAN FLYNN FIXED HIM!!!!!!! Like Knuckles acts how I envisioned him in Sonic x!

That shi was fire, tyson hesse and ian flynn went all out

Gotta say Sam, between this and your recent non-specific comments on Frontiers the hype is real right now. Still gonna go in with a level head, but damn I'm excited.

Honestly if we continue to get the special episode game tie-ins at this quality narratively and visually from this point onward I'd look forward to buying the games more often than not

That animated prologue is absolutely incredible. A huge thank you to everyone involved. 2022 is such a good year for our favorite echidna. I love it!! Looking forward to your Frontiers review Sam!! I hate what we got in the last decade (except Generations and Mania), especially Forces, so I'm very pessimist about Frontiers, even if I saw many promising things in the trailers until now. I really hope that Sonic Team finally managed to do something right. Can't wait to watch your review!

This animation was incredible. :)

The animation was really good, Big W

The prologue was awesome and the animations are looking fantastic, I'm glad to see Knuckles the real king making a comeback

The animation looks stunning even better than the CG cutscenes in general.

So is no one gonna peep the fact that he mentioned different Echidna tribes?

Something tells me you know more than you're letting out Sam.

This might be me just thinking a little too much into it, but since the Starfall Islands are named after Greek Gods/Goddesses and one of the islands is named Ouranos (the sky god), I wonder if that might be the original name of Angel Island?🤔

There he is! *The Boy!* The legend that is *Knuckles,* has returned 🙌

I absolutely enjoyed every part of the prologue and am even more HYPED for this game

Honesty I wasn't thinking about getting Frontiers. It just doesn't look that interesting to me and none of the things they are showing shows me that they are listening and changing their ways. But after seeing this and seeing what Ian Flynn is capable of, I'm thinking about buying the game. Thank you, Tyson and Ian, for understanding Knuckles and the Sonic brand. I thought we will never be able to see the characters themselves again, but you prove there still hope. At least now I could confidently say the story might actually be good for a change.

I can say that I was wrong about one element since they gave us that teaser for this animation. I really thought that the Master Emerald would have gained an important part of the game, once more, but I'm just glad that Angel Island is safe for the time being.

I need Ian Flynn and Tyson HesseTo work on an animated series together because this was outstanding

I was so happy seeing the Adventure flashback. I’m so buying Frontiers when it releases thanks to this prologue alone!

Dave...... please stay, you're my favorite knuckles voice, please stay His voice for him sounds like it's a mix of Dan green and Travis, anyone else hear it?

SONIC FRONTIERS HYPE!!!!!

Why do I feel like for DLC cosmetic, the Kocos will have random Chao skins. But either or, this was a really great animation. Maybe not to beat Riders but it's up there. This was just great and cant wait for Sonic frontiers. And btw, the voice of Knuckles is definitely improving in a very good direction and step up from TSR

We really need a Knuckles Adventure.

Woah, woah, woah... The Frontiers review is coming BEFORE the stream? I hope that it's based on what he had the opportunity to play so far. I'm really looking forward to getting his sincere first reactions to the game proper.

Man this animation is off the chart

Not sure what some are saying about the audio but its fine for me

Awesome prologue, view of this is amazing

Like goddamn I always get chills when I see that shot of asura and then they zoom in on sage just looking imposing

I just watched this with sound first time here and GOD I LOVE IT EVEN MORE

Same, I just can't get used to these voices no matter how hard I try. Some times it sounds fine and then I find myself wincing. Knuckles still just sounds like a boneheaded muscle brain.

The last Sonic related thing that gave me goosebumps before this was Advance 3. Animation was amazing.

So since you played Frontiers already, did you record a play through already or no?

The video i've been waiting for.

Can’t wait for that “Forces 5 years later” am I right. 😉

Sonic lore is back I’m so dang happy

I want to meme the part where Sam just says "Chao" out of nowhere

Sam has lost his voice! Has Knuckles stolen it? Find out in "Knuckles stole his voice?" next.

Yessir love to see it

This was so fucking awesome.

Do you think Shadow has a chance of turning back into his old self like Knuckles?

The environment of Angel Island gives some vibes of Laputa: Castle in the Sky

How cool would it be to have a whole Sonic series animated in this style?

My guy knuckles is back

This is just godlike.

Knuckles feels like Zoro now, and that's meant as a compliment.

No sound yet seems like I'll have to wait a bit

yall, i literally hear the audio, what r yall talking about

SAM YOU LIED TO ME YOU ALREADY PLAYED THE GAME!!!!!!! Anyway can’t wait for your review on the game ☺️

i am very hyped

man now i wanna play as knuckles >:( why'd they have to make his character finally good! AND THEN NOT LET US BE HIM! hopefully we can actually.

Woah 🤯

if this is the writing we can see in frontiers we are in for a treat

Now this is the knuckles I know

I do wonder, since you already played the game, did you beat it fully? if so, does that mean there's not going to be a let's play on your channel when the game comes out..? or are you going to live stream it...?

Knuckles Voice Was Better In Tails Tube

The animation is what I want from we been waiting for, I heard the game was good I can't wait for Sega to finally change and have good games again.

Wonder when that reviews gonna be out

2:33 I've noticed the "Ash Ketchum" lines on that Chao.

Why oh why haven't we gotten a solo Knuckles like this yet?!

Did you record an initial play-through for you to upload when the games out? Or did you just play it uncaptured?

Oh man. Knuckles got trapped and a victim to Sage. I do hope Sonic will save him. 😎

Does the audio desync around 3:10? Wasn't sure if it was my end or Sam's.
