Thanks so much for this video! I never knew about this manga and wish to read it in person myself! I really do think it would be so cool for this to be a game series because the sonic and nickey characters would be so cool and interesting in the game and since they are the same person, it would be so cool for this to be a game series! I hope sega makes this a game series some day! Have a blessed day sonicsta and everyone! 😁💙

I like Nicky a lot, but poor guy, I wish he knew he was Sonic. I think if the manga got rebooted I would like Sonic and Nicky to be the same personality, maybe starting out as shy and scared, but getting braver and a little more confident as he starts fighting evil. I also think it’s funny that Nicky is basically jealous of himself because he stole the attention of his own girlfriend.

I always saw Sonic as a hero, but not necessarily as a Super Hero. I like the fact that Sonic could retain one identity and use his powers whenever he wanted and or chose to do so. I did compare him a lot to Spiderman, but that's mainly from their attitudes and cool factor. Sonic having an alter ego is an interesting interpretation though. I like the emphasis on character development for Sonic having to juggle two sides of his personality. At the same time, Sonic being unabashedly his true self is a trait I appreciate a lot more when it comes to defining who Sonic is. He isn't tethered to one location, but continues to scout other areas using his super speed to help those who can't fight for themselves.

It's funny you should say that, because Sango Morimoto (one of the creators of this manga) also did a side-story set in prehistoric times where Eggman was a caveman and Nicky and Amy were cave-hedgehogs, and when I saw that piece of concept art from Prime with Amy as a cavegirl, that was the first thing I thought of. It's probably just a coincidence, but interesting, nonetheless.

Fun Fact: Naoto Ohshima was actually involved in someway due to the creation of Charmy and this Manga being Amy's very first appearance before Sonic CD was made.

Sooo glad to finally have the context for why I saw a lot of Sonic with glasses for so long. Now I know! Nicky is super adorable tho, I actually really like this interpretation!

If the Sonic games were to be more like the manga, the gameplay and story of the games probably wouldn't be all that different. However, it would give us a different side of Sonic/Nikki's character, including a more equal relationship with Amy. Also, Robotnik would probably get taken care of more easily, considering how often his gets his face charred after boss fights in the classic era.

Alternate tittle : The time Sonic was Moon Knight

American and European Sonic comics: a fast hedgehog trying to save the world from Eggman's tirany Sonic manga: Sonic has two personalities and fights against Eggman who also has 2 personalities

In the Shogakukan manga, Nicky transforms into Sonic out of stress. And this is usually triggered by Amy being taken away from him. Nonetheless, Amy is a good girlfriend. She cares a lot for Nicky and always supports him. As for Metal Sonic, in this continuity, he's more of a giant mech.

There are a few sites where you can read translations of these. But, yeah they're kinda rare. I do think they’re fun and worth checking out. -- Funny thing is: as weird as this manga is, it is _technically_ official. Like, it’s just supposed to be promotional. But, it’s still odd that they let it go on for so long. -- And, this is just one of *several* comics, manga, and shows released around the same time, all with wildly different stories and characterizations of what is supposed to be the same brand. -- Like I am prone to point out: SEGA has been playing fast and loose with Sonic since day one. So, the fractured state of the current fandom is not at all surprising. ( Heh... I wonder will Nicky be in Sonic Prime? That would be a DEEP cut.)

I don’t know if anyone has said this yet, so sorry in advance but charmy and Amy actually debut in this manga and got reused in the games. So it’s actually the games that changed charmy design and not the other way around

Every sonic comic series started completely crazily.

This would be perfect for a 90's anime.

Sonic was always a Super Hero to me, just like Mario

I've actually heard of this manga before but I have never read it. I do know already that characters we see in the games like Amy and Charmy actually dates back to this manga, even before Tails and Knuckles were around.

2:45 just like how sonic was unaware of the destruction fleetway super sonic was causing in the fleetway sonic comics

It’s an interesting concept. I think the closest I’ve seen to it is Buddy Blank from OMAC and Gemini. Both are unassuming every guys until danger happens then they turn into superheroes. Though in their cases it’s a top secret organization that handles the transformation and part of the drama comes from the lengths said group will go to keep them in the dark(Gemini’s handlers freaked when he woke up in his civilian form and started to question why he couldn’t remember the face in the mirror).

I remember seeing this. Good Stuff

I'd love to see a AU reboot (Whether Comic, Show, or Game) of Nicky Parlouzer's Sonic where it takes more inspiration with Sailor Moon, Spider-Man (Specifically Miles Morales or Peni Parker's universe) and/or Mega Man: Battle Network, yet stand out compared to the mainline Sonic in a good way There's a lot of neat concept that can go through with this universe if done correctly

I not want be the who sey this but in this manga sonic loves amy to where he kissed amy onec or twice i think(not in the wey you mey thing but he did kiss her) unlike games where sonic cant sey his feeling to amy. Anuwey nice to see someone review this 👌👍

Well, since Sonic is speedy just like The Flash and Quicksilver & has all those powers, he may as well fit the superhero genre.

You know, while it is unlikely that the old Sonic manga will get rereleased or anything, I still hope it happens someday; this manga looks so charming!

it is very cool!

I actually want to see a revival of this manga and maybe a storyline where sonic doesn’t remember his time as Nicky and through spending time with his friends slowly gains his memories back

Oh I thought that Niky is married with Amy and I thought he was way older

It's been YEARS since I read this when I was a kid, from what I remember I loved it! Thought it was a really cool comic along with the UK's STC I always liked when people take there own spin on properties. Looking at different angles are good every once in a while.

This is really good this should've been a cartoon

I give him a 100 out of 10 and I wish more mangas were made

I always thought Nicky was a cool concept and I really wish he would come back but unless they make like a cartoon out of it i don't think that's gonna happen.

Amy,mighty,ray,vector and charmy were all created before tails 😟

Isn’t he already a super hero

I'm happy to see more people talk about the Sonic manga because it needs more attention with it being half lost, and most issues not being translated, and I find it interesting how it's one of the earliest Sonic media outside the games, especially since due to the limit of characters at the time, it had its own cast of characters that make it stand out as its own thing. I definitely hope it will eventually be entirely found and translated. Personally, I've always considered Sonic to be a superhero because he is a hero, and he's fast enough that his speed qualifies as a superpower like with The Flash.

Emi and Nicky such a great manga

6:44 here is something interesting I heard he and Amy originated from this comic so wouldn't it be more of Charmy doesn't look like how he did in the comics

Sonic with a secret identity is a little weird

This is basically a Sonic Spider-Man adaption

If this becomes a full cartoon series that would be awesome

I never thought that Sonic will ever have a Manga but I like to see Sonic with his regular stories not Spidersonic stories But any way he looks cute

I think that this is how I would integrate this story into the overall Sonic lore. I would say that the siblings that NikkI (which would be spelled Nicky in the new lore, as Nikki is a feminine form of the name)/Sonic has from Sonic Underground are his older siblings that are adults, and Tanya and he are like the two younger siblings that are at home. I also think that Sonic's parents were captured by Dr. Robotnik/Dr. Eggman. Little John is like a childhood friend of his as well, and Dr. Robotnik/Dr. Eggman was actually captured by his demented dad, who was also the same guy that captured Shadow the Hedgehog, and he made his poor kid into almost a Harvey Dent/Two-Face kind of person, who gradually went from a cop to a somewhat more benign, and curious, if not slightly mentally unbalanced, scientist, and inventor, to a full on megalomaniac, as portrayed in the video games, Western, and Eastern, anime/OVAs, and manga. Now, as for Little John, well, he was kind of like Rotor, but a bit more behind the scenes, as his fighting skills were even worse than those of Nicky. Anton Verruca would be kind of a bully that would later become an enforcer for Dr. Robotnik/Dr. Eggman, though who he is exactly, I do not know yet, nor if he either retained his normal form, or if he became a bot. I would also say that Anton is the son of the second in command of his dad, and that his dad, as well as his mom, both kind of feel like they owe their boss, and so they kind of use Anton to goad Nicky/Sonic to become Sonic the Hedgehog, and to make Dogman/Dr. Robotnik/Dr. Eggman become a mentally unbalanced warlord that would turn the world into an evil Fascist police state, which was ruled by science, and his ego. This is just the start of things, mind I tell you.

okay nicky looks cute ngl Modern Amy: Sonic can we keep him?

Sonic interestingly has an Urkel persona.

I thought it was a super cool concept but I wish Nicky Learned he was sonic at some point.

Imagine if this manga had Shadow in it. Maybe he would have an friendly alter ego who was friends with Nicky but would transform into Shadow who is Sonic’s mortal enemy.

Silver Surfer. Norrin Radd had a crisis of faith in 1989 when he learned Galactus had tampered with his personality, while he made Norrin into his alter ego in a bid to spare his homeworld. This happened as Norrin was hopping between dimensional planes, to beat Thanos and his 6 magic emeralds. Something people seem to forget in Sonic 1.
