shadow the hedgehog looks like that bc he was made to cater to the interests of a 12yo girl. hes a weapon of mass destruction but hes also her guardian and a little guy thats why hes so silly looking like an emo carebear. "shadow is a cartoon hedgehog bc hes based on ancient murals" my ass. if u were a preteen wouldnt u want to customize your personal care aide to be a cool looking anthro cartoony animal with stripes and eyeliner and spiky hair? yeah thats what i thought

#what im implying is gerald based shadows appearance on marias drawings. wtv the equivalent of a deviantart oc was in the 50s #if this contradicts canon dont tell me im happier believing thats what happened #sth #shadow #shadow the hedgehog #blingee.txt
