The rise, decline, and surprising rise of Sonic the Hedgehog is a fascinating tale, and no one is more familiar with it than Takashi Iizuka.

Ehm, no? Christian Whitehead and co didn’t singlehandedly save the franchise, to think that is absurd.
Frontiers was the most acclaimed game of the franchise created by Sonic Team in years, and Sonic X Shadow Generations was created on the basis of Frontiers and was a success.
What about the movies? I’ve met more new Sonic fans who were introduced to the franchise by the movies than by Sonic Mania. It doesn’t even come close.
What Mania have to do with the fact that Sonic Racing Crossworld is one of the most anticipated games of the year?
Mania is great, and yes, it was an important part of the renaissance of the franchise, but not the only one nor the most crucial. We have to quit treating Mania like the second coming of Jesus, please.
