How come the Sonic fandom being as humongous and obsessive as it is hasn't hovered toward and took control of DCT discourse online?
It's one of the biggest pop acts in Asia (and for good reason, they are good musicians, make great songs and their live shows are incredible). Nakmaura-san often references his Sonic works and they even released a Green Hill Zone single a few years ago.
Yet the Sonic fandom is strangely silent about them.

QRD on this obscure weab shit?
Any proper SEGA fan knows about it, it's just that there isn't really anything to discuss about it
J-Pop band who's responsible for a lot of Sonic music. For example Green Hill Zone in Sonic 1 is this song:
Pretty interesting. Thanks for sharing despite the weab shit comment. I apologize, sirs.
>Any proper SEGA fan knows about it, it's just that there isn't really anything to discuss about it
Are you kidding me? DCT keeps releasing new material and doing stadium concerts all the time. As already stated, they also released a GHZ single a few years ago.
Complete silence from the Sonic fandom. And we're talking about a fandom that obsessses about every little single thing related to the story of Sonic.
We live in a time where more Sonic fans know about the 80s hair metal band of the Crush40 single than the J-Pop juggernaut band from the creator of the "Sonic music" sound (every Sonic soundtrack tries to recreate the Nakamura vibe).
I dunno there's a weird disconnection between an obsessive fandom not talking about a hyper popular band from the creator of music like GHZ.
>J-Pop band who's responsible for a lot of Sonic music.
It's just Sonic 1 & 2 and it's just one member of the band, Masato Nakamura. You don't even know what you're obsessing about
>It's just Sonic 1 &
You say it like that like it's just 2 minor games. Sonic 1 and 2 contain more inconic music than the entirety of the rest of the series.
Also in the games credits, Dreams Come True appear, not just Masato Nakamura (who is the band leader anyway)
>obscure
They are literally one of the most popular asian music acts of all time

Sonic 2 ending theme
It was very cool to see his name in the credits of the Sonic 1 movie since they use the Green Hill Zone theme a lot in that. What I don't understand is why SEGA hasn't just bought the rights to all of his music, it's weird to see the actual Sonic 1/2 theme return in Generations and then just disappear again. I also wish he was just on better terms with SEGA in general. If Jun can still work on the games there's no reason Nakamura can't. Would be nice to see him return for once like Ohshima did
Also, forget everyone who thinks Naofumi Hataya and Michael Jackson were the best Sonic composers. Nakamura and Jun are where it's at (and Spencer Nelson, of course
Literally just Google it, it's not even that obscure
It may not be that good of a series, but they did contribute a song for that mid 90's Swan Princess animated movie. That's the only way I knew of them before I ever found out one of their musicians did the Sonic OSTs. The only problem was it only played during the end credits.
The Japanese side of the Sonic fandom is the niche section of the walking zeitgeist.
I don't even think most zooms remember that one chick who use to do smut before getting a job at SEGA.
>How come the Sonic fandom being as humongous and obsessive as it is hasn't hovered toward and took control of DCT discourse online?
because it has nothing to do with sonic barring one man and one song
He composed the entirety of Sonic 1 and 2
the sonic fanbase cared a lot more about them 15 years ago. then all the z**mers that played sonic adventure 2 grew up and we all know how much worse the sonic fanbase is now
Is it? Seems a lot more chill than it was about a decade ago. Then again that was probably the last time I played any modern Sonic games
that was during the 2d/3d civil war brought on by the influx of cube kids, now that sonic is good across the board its calmed down and sega acknowledges both parties
>sonic is good across the board
fricking laugh of the century right here
Weird slide, anyway lets laugh 😀
>Everyone who disagrees with me is a shill sliding my thread
You tards never fail to amuse.
>people really angry at sonic being in a sonic thread
The jokes write themselves
is it that im really angry? or is it that you're really asshurt?
>Because people confuse Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 with the 2006 game and games that have nothing to do with Sonic
...uh, no?
>no u!
You were called out and lashed out. No need to be so upset, it's just Sonic. Why not find a thread about a game you're into? Like Mario?
you have hoards of teenagers and literal children arguing that the adventure games aging poorly is "just a meme"
even in 2007 that was acknowledged by people who actually liked the games for whatever reason
>now that sonic is good across the board
lmao
