comment
Sonic Destruction is a series of videos done by the crew of Real-Time Fandub on the SnapCube channel. The project isn't actually a dub of any Sonic game, or any media at all: instead, it's a live reading of a script of a Sonic fanfilm/fanseries titled, indeed, Sonic Destruction. The catch is that the script was generated by AI Dungeon with some minor influence from RTF cast member Penny Parker. Hilarity Ensues thanks to the nature of the AI creating inane lines, which the dubbers try to keep up with as they maneuver through the increasingly nonsensical storyline.You can watch the series here.

Canon Foreigner: Amongst all these Sonic mainstays and Elise is Mayor Jason King. There's also the Ultimate Lifeform, but that's at least based on the games. Knuckles' list of 'people who can help' the protagonists starts off unusual but still within the Sonic games' universe, quickly ventures off into the comics, veers into obscure Welsh animated childrens' programmes, before making up four entirely new characters: Captain William Buckaneer, Sergeant "O", Professor Uma "Moebius" Fargod, and Lucas, the Flaming Centipede. None of these characters have thus far appeared. Episode 2 introduces a new antagonist in Daedalus, a character created by the AI. He's responsible for the creation of the Book of Prophecies, Sonic's transformation into a human, and the death of Shadow.

Related Differently in the Adaptation: Like in the Adventure 2 fandub, Gerald Robotnik is Eggman's father... But he also at several points calls Eggman "Dad". It's unknown if he's just senile and Eggman is playing along, or if there's something else going on.

Ambiguous Situation
 Sonic Destruction (Audio Play) / int_1f6983f7
comment
Ambiguous Situation: Even by the standards of the series, Shadow's B-plot in Episode 2 will make anyone wonder when or where it's happening. At first, it's implied that the entire sequence is a virtual recreation of a past event played by Silver through the Shadow the Hedgehog video game, but said B-plot is also intertwined with Sonic the Human's story, so it can't be a past event, and seems to concurrent with the events inside City Hall. It's enough of a Mind Screw to send anyone trying to pay attention to the nonsense plot for a loop.

 Sonic Destruction (Audio Play) / int_23698fa8
comment
Aborted Arc: While Episode 1 starts with Eggman trying to conquer the world with robots, it quickly goes completely unfulfilled after Sonic and his friends realize they're susceptible to Paper-Thin Disguise, with him instead focusing on his Ultimate Lifeform. Shadow suspects that Princess Elise is influencing Sonic's behavior somehow — potentially explaining why he's acting so weird — and Knuckles makes an off-hand comment that she's an evil fake created by Eggman. Neither of these plot points are ever fully addressed before Sonic dies and Elise is defeated, while Eggman makes no comment on what, if anything, he did to Elise after he gives up. At the end of Episode 1, Shadow and Elise decide to leave to visit Earth. Episode 2 picks up immediately after the end of Episode 1, and quickly reveals that Shadow and Elise are still on whatever planet the series takes place on. Their intention to visit Earth has yet to be revisited.

Establishing Series Moment
 Sonic Destruction (Audio Play) / int_41c08e5
comment
Establishing Series Moment: Early in episode 1, we get a glimpse into just how absurd the series can get. Three people, almost certainly Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles, are standing in front of a billboard, and due to how it's written, it's hard to tell whether the billboard has a picture of the Earth with a giant hole in it with a caption saying "The End of the World?" or there's actually a giant hole in the Earth with the caption at the bottom of it. Whichever it is, all Sonic has to say about it is "Uh, you guys hear about this?" only for the conversation to quickly derail when Knuckles mentions the news. And then, Sonic is called "Sonc" by the narration.

The Un-Reveal
 Sonic Destruction (Audio Play) / int_5a3b8032
comment
The Unreveal: Episode 2 has no less than two instances of a build-up to important information going nowhere. After Silver reveals that he's actually Shadow, Knuckles asks how that can be possible. Silver gives his backstory, which involves him being the prince of Soleanna, with Gerald as his father and the king, and the king and queen of another country dying in a meteorite crash when he was visiting. And before he can get to anything resembling a point, he just says that he doesn't want to talk about it anymore. After Shadow tells Rouge about the Harbingers being a Dark Gaia-worshipping cult from the Middle Ages, Rouge asks for further elaboration. Shadow's reply? "I dunno, that's all it says."

Not Me This Time: There are multiple points in the script where it's very clear that Penny inserted her own jokes and/or was trying to wrangle with the AI to keep the story going. When the crew notices and asks her, she fesses up to it. However, there are a few instances where lines that are suspected to be Penny's doing were purely of the AI's creation, such as a couple comedically timed swears.

Behind the Black: The AI keeps forgetting that it didn't establish certain characters being in a scene before they start talking, which leads to them appearing out of nowhere to speak. This is especially true with Knuckles, who seemingly teleports in so many times that the cast jokes that he's just out of frame constantly, waiting for his chance to jump out.

Foreshadowing: It may be entirely accidental, but very occasionally something will tie back into an event that happened previously. At one point, Penny makes an offhand comment about how even though Elise doesn't kiss a hedgehog in the Episode 1 script, "she does in the next one." Sure enough, in Episode 2 she very briefly appears to go on a date with Shadow, kiss included. During said date, Shadow makes an offhand comment about how his "user" can play the piano. Later, when Silver brings in the PS2 with Shadow the Hedgehog on it, he declares that he is actually Shadow the Hedgehog, and that he's playing Shadow's life through the game.

Random Events Plot: The very first episode involves the apparent end of the world, Eggman creating the Ultimate Life Form only to apparently switch sides off-screen, a completely abrupt appearance from a second Shadow the Hedgehog, The Reveal of the planet the characters are on not even being Earth, and Sonic being a human being at the end despite having apparently died. The second then introduces Daedalus, a mysterious entity connected to the plot in a number of increasingly confusing ways.

Take That!: Previous cast members Hayley and Blue were removed from the channel after invokedbeing outed as manipulative abusers. When the cast introduce themselves and say who they'll be playing, the actors taking over their roles claim they've always portrayed these characters. Possibly unintentionally due to the randomized nature of AI Dungeon, but Gerald reveals at the end of Episode 2 that the Shadow the Hedgehog video game (which somehow exists in the story itself) was a government experiment that was seen as an embarrassing failure.

comment
Trauma-Induced Amnesia: After being resurrected as a human, Sonic can't remember anything that happened between his conversation with Shadow about Elise, and his waking up in Mayor King's office as a human. Knowing that Shadow went through the same thing, he asks for his assistance in getting his memories back, only to learn Shadow (actually Daedalus) was the one who erased them in the first place.

Precision F-Strike: While everyone in the cast swears frequently, they have to inject the cursing into their improvised lines or commentary; the actual script avoids profanity almost entirely. However, it does come up a couple times due to the AI trying to be comedic, which makes a big impact on the cast and they burst out laughing.

Mind Screw: The whole thing, but especially once Episode 2 and everything to do with Daedalus starts up. There is a lot going on and no clear explanation to how it all connects. Particular highlights go to: Eggman calling Gerald (actually his grandfather) his dad, then, without missing a beat, switching to Gerald referring to Eggman as his dad. A second Shadow appearing out of nowhere. Silver boots up a PlayStation 2 (in the form of a small, black cube) to reveal that the video game Shadow the Hedgehog exists within this universe. Silver then immediately revealing that he has somehow been Shadow this whole time. The relationship between Shadow, Silver and Daedalus, who are somehow all the same person despite the fact that we've seen Shadow and Silver separate from each other.

Tomes of Prophecy and Fate: In the first episode's climax, Jason King, the mayor of the city, reveals he has a book that details a 7000-year prophecy, which includes Gerald causing destruction, and that Sonic showing up as a human means it's fulfilled. The second episode reveals that Daedalus not only wrote the prophecy, but also turned Sonic into a human, thus ensuring its fulfillment.

Possibly unintentionally due to the randomized nature of AI Dungeon, but Gerald reveals at the end of Episode 2 that the Shadow the Hedgehog video game (which somehow exists in the story itself) was a government experiment that was seen as an embarrassing failure.

comment
Dumbass No More: In previous Real-Time Fandub projects, Knuckles was portrayed as The Stoner with some shades of outright cloudcuckoolander. The nature of the AI-generated script combined with a new VA means he's become far more lucid. He's practically an Only Sane Man, taking initiative to combat Eggman and mostly lacking any crazy moments.

Offscreen Teleportation: Knuckles is constantly showing up in scenes and interjecting. Most of the time, this is without ANY indication from the script directions that he entered the scene or was there to begin with, leading the cast to presume that he is simply teleporting around.

comment
Suspiciously Specific Denial: At one point in Episode 2, we cut to Shadow in Skygard saying to absolutely no one that he is, in fact, Shadow the Hedgehog. However, with the later reveal that he's actually Daedalus in disguise, along with Silver having just said that he's Shadow the Hedgehog, Shadow's claim enters this territory.

The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: The good guys frequently talk about how they need to save the city while doing nothing to actually help. Eventually they start getting to work, though it's ambiguous how much they're actually doing since these actions are mostly offscreen. Eggman falsely claiming they've already saved the day indicates this trope is still in play.
