i didnt know where to put this, so I guess it goes here. A few weeks ago there was a topic about the similarities between sonic and various other shows/movies etc, this got me thinking, being a major fan of the DB universe I started comparing the sonic db universes togeather, and they share so many similarities! I just thought I should post them, tell me what you think:
characters
Sonic = Goku (obviously, dont really need to go into this one)
Tails = Krillin/Gohan (couldnt decide which one, both kinda fit)
Knuckles = Piccollo (both started out evil then turned good)
Amy = Bulma (obviously)
Shadow = Vegeta (this one is blatantly obvious, im sure Vegeta was a big insperation while designing Shadow)
Big = Fat Buu (DEFINATLY!!)
Charmy = Chaotzu (both are small, weak and annoying)
Vector = Tien (both tall and act very serious)
Espio = Yamcha (both think the'yre cool)
Chaos = Cell (perfect chaos/perfect cell anyone?)
SH Metal Sonic = Super Buu (absorbing power)
Robotnik = cant decide, maybe dr Gero? (hard one this, theres not really a villain to compare him to)
Cream = Pan (maybe)
Rouge = Maron (krillins temporary horny girlfreind)
E-102 gamma = Android 16 (both became 'good' whilst rebelling against their masters)
Mobians = Earthlings (both act completly oblivious to our heroes' goings on)
locations
Floating island = Kamis tower (quite obvious)
Mobius = Earth (ok getting silly now....)
objects
7 Chaos Emeralds = 7 dragonballs
ill update and post more as soon as I can think of more. Comments/suggestions anyone?

two things I dont' think this has to go to the boomer zone and two we had a thread about this, its kinda weird but even if sonic is a rip off of db I still like him.

Yeah, we did have a topic similar to this. Although wasn't the other one to compare the simalrities between Sonic and DBZ. I thought this one was something like the Sonic Wars topic at the boomer zone. Or is it? Oh dear I'm confused.

In all fairness, most forms of media, particually anime tend to have Dbzish refs in them, one of the most common ones I notice is the two char rivally stemming from Vegetta/Goku. Besides, Sonic does do the coolest impression of a SSJ  |

Mike Its the characters personalities that keep reminding me of DBZ, not the fact that there are two of them. One is the allround good naturred and sometimes hot head main hero. The other is the arrogant loner with the dark past and can be extremely (censored) of at you counterpart who arrives about halfway through the series. Sorry but it just keeps popping up.  |

I 90% agree with Omega. Shadow is like Vegeta in many ways. But both Sonic and Goku are different. Sonic can get extremly confident at times, and never really does show respect to anyone. Goku, however, is completly the oppisiate to what I just said.

Goku, however, is completly the oppisiate to what I just said. well im really talking about the SegaSonic universe a opposed to the StC universe, in that hes I little more caring. Besides, theres a lot more similarities than differences with sonic eg: first one to turn super main character the most powerful out of of his friends (and fastest) he DOES respect his freinds like Goku does. in a way, both are stereotypical 'good guys' |

I know Sonic shows respect to most of his friends, he just rarely admits it.

There was a lot of ideas taken from each other, and a lot from Japanese legend, 7 was a very lucky number to them I think.

Yeah they must have got the imspiration from there, the cell/chaos resembelence is too close not to be!
And Robotnik would do exellently as Dr Gero, he has a huge ornage moustache and his creations keep turning against him!
*Creates his own robot, but it just throws him through the wall and goes on a killing spree*

I see many similatires between Sonic X and DBGT (the horror)
Sonic is the most powerful character and no one else has a chance against the villians. = Kid Goku
Knuckles is the only other character who can fight the villians, but the is always busy somewhere else. = Vegeta
Amy = Pan. Need I say more
Cream and Tails, two major characters in the sonic series who can do absolituly nothing. = The rest of the DBGT cast.
I also hate the fact that sonic is a weakling until he gets a ring and cannot spin attack without one, and also how they have made him so much better than Knuckles.
Note: sorry for my raving but I hate that show, also sorry for bad spelling
