* It was a tad confusing in "Donkey Kong Country," Mario survived getting knocked down into the pit but Candy didn't. It seems like it's because Mario is naturally tough while Candy is pretty frail. However, considering Candy was the one that knocked Mario down the pit and Mario is a very vengeful person who carries a large knife around, it's safe to assume Mario killed her brutally off-screen.

!!FridgeLogic:

* Continuity aside, why didn't Sonic stay when he found his "happiness" in Scribblenauts?
** Maybe he forgot because he was pissed off at Tails, he got a pile of [[ItMakesSenseInContext onion rings]] instead of the rings he uses, and he just got a gun to rob a gas station. Also, [[IdiotHero idiot anit-hero here.]]
** Maybe Scribblenaut's idea of Sonic's happiness didn't agree with the lifestyle he actually wanted.

* The last episode. Sonic gains godly powers. So, that's interesting. But, remember what he says when he gets them? [[VideoGame/SonicExe I. Am. God.]] Yeah, Sonic being such an asshole and crossing into reality comes across in a different light now.

* I figured out why Mario seemed only slightly annoyed when Luigi died a second time. He had the Epoch, so he could have easily saved him from death if it wasn't destroyed.

* Another interesting one is that in "Crash Bandicoot", Sonic changed "Crash Bandicoot Pong" to "Sonic and Pong" (Which looked messed up). The paddles there looked like chili dogs. [[WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog Guess what Sonic's]] [[WesternAnimation/SonicSatAM favorite food was in]] [[WesternAnimation/SonicUnderground the Sonic cartoons?]]

* In this series where everyone is prone to injuries and death, two characters are rarely seen getting even damaged: Kirby and Soniqua. They are both NighInvulnerable and dish out curb stomp battles to anyone that dares to fight them. This makes sense considering who/what they are. Kirby is a powerful Star Warrior who is considered one of Nintendo's strongest characters of all time (yes even more so than Mario, Link, and Samus). Kirby fights planet destroying beings on a daily basis and can take a ''lot'' of punishment not to mention his ridiclous amount of powers thanks to his Copy Ability. And Soniqua is half-Sonic, half-Metroid. Sonic himself is an already tough guy but being part Metroid is what really makes Soniqua so strong. Metroids are ''very'' tough beings to take out and the most effective way to even damage/kill one is to freeze them than blow them up with missiles. If you don't have any access to ice weapons (which fortunately for Soniqua she never encounters any), you can't even scratch the Metroid. Combine that with Sonic's agility and parkour-like fighting style and you have one very effective fighter in Soniqua.

* When Sonic confronts Crash Bandicoot about the Epoch, he mistakes him for VideoGame/{{Bubsy}} and hates him even more. ''Sonic The Hedgehog'' spawned a sort of craze for anthropomorphic MascotWithAttitude platformers as other companies tried to emulate Sonic's success. Bubsy is not only the most infamous failure to do so, but also the subgenre's eventual [[GenreKiller killer]].

*** Tails could gain Player One mortality, though, by being selected at the File Select screen. But Sonic would not agree to doing that, since selecting Tails as Player One drops Sonic from most of the game, and this version of Sonic doesn't like other people taking his spotlight.

** Later on, when the universe starts falling apart because of the gang's time-travel shenanigans, Tails laments that he didn't get the chance to kill his time clone as originally planned, right before Sonic hits the reset button. His chance would've been when they were all still in ''Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Knuckles'', in which he was Player Two. And therefore immortal. Making it a wasted effort, anyway.

* Earthworm brains don't have the higher functions, such as cognition and self-awareness; they only exist to enable the worm to dig, eat, and move. So when the rest of the gang get high off licking the Battletoads, Jim remains unaffected.
** How can that be, when he's previously gotten high off coke and roofied once by accident? He was inhaling the coke and drinking the roofies. The gang was licking the Battletoads. Worms breathe and eat, but they don't have tongues.

* As seen throughout the series, Sonic kills a lot of other characters without remorse. Real hedgehogs are not far off, as they feed on not only invertebrates, but various amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. Like shrews and moles, hedgehogs take on animals larger and/or dangerous than themselves, . Against a snake it's both for hunting and self-defence.

Added DiffLines:

** Sonic and Tails are less friendly to each other here. [[AnimalJingoism In real life]], adult foxes will try to eat hedgehogs. When hedgehogs curl up in a ball, foxes pee on them to make them unravel. Much like Tails did during the filming scene in Season 4. Not to mention that Sonic gets peed on by other characters too.

* Eggman often craps himself during the series. Linked to his egg motif, when eggs are first retrieved from nests, they are still quite dirty due to being in hen's cloaca (where the digestive tract ends as well).

* Sonic's behavior itself. If something or himself keeps him for killing, he resorts to being a jerk. When trying to not be a jerk, he'll be apathetic and snarky. Only when it seems his lifestyle (or later even life) is threatened Sonic gets of his butt and let's off his pride. Of course he can't change himself completely, thus being oblivious, incompetent and immorally opportunistic at nearly all his jobs he gets. At least he made through some of the job interviews (then again said jobs were often deadly).
