5* ''Ask the Sonic Heroes'', an animated series where fans are asked to submit questions to the cast.

7* ''Sonic Goes To...'', a plush series highlighting the sights of any particular location.
8* Kn also hosts weekly live streams on the channel, often with a castmember on board, where she usually colors in her drawings of the characters.
9* ''Fun Friday'', as the name suggests, a weekly stream every Friday where members of the cast play games, often in character, such as ''VideoGame/AmongUs'' or ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}''.

15!!This web series provides examples of the following tropes:
16* ADayInTheLimelight:
17** ''Silver's Neverending Story,'' the interactive adventure about Silver's quest to find Blaze.
18** ''Blaze Goes to Disneyland,'' starring the female cast of the series, primarily Blaze (obviously).
19** ''Team Chaotix, Master Detectives!'' stars Team Chaotix looking for main character Sonic the Hedgehog.
20* ArtEvolution: ''Ask the Sonic Heroes'' has now seen two character design overhauls.
21* ArtShiftedSequel: ''Ask the Sonic Heroes'' consists of hand drawings while the rest of the content of the channel is plush-based.
22* AwfulWeddedLife: Invoked by Infinite, who proposes to Shadow purely to make his life miserable. Shadow does everything he can to get out of the marriage, including [[TilMurderDoUsPart trying to kill Infinite]].
23* BreakTheCutie: {{Averted}} in Episode 17 Part 1 of ''Ask the Sonic Heroes'' when Knuckles and Rouge convinced Cream to wait on watching ''[[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Madoka Magica]]'' until she was older, due to its violent content.
24* CanonWelding: While the series takes place primarily in the game universe, in various episodes it is revealed that the events (or at least, aspects of them) of several animated Sonic cartoons (excluding ''Boom'' and the ''OVA'') have taken place in this continuity:
25** ''Anime/SonicX'': Bokkun and Chris appear in the series, Tails mentions Cosmo on more than one occasion, and Sonic references his Dark Super form. Cosmo eventually makes her series debut in ''Among Us on the Ark''.
26** ''WesternAnimation/SonicUnderground'': Sonic mentions his siblings, Manic and Sonia, as well as his mother, Queen Aleena.
27** ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog'': Dr. Eggman mentions Robotnik Jr. Scratch and Grounder also appear in both ''Sonic Chefs'' and ''Among Us on the Ark''.
28** ''WesternAnimation/SonicTheHedgehogSatAM'': Sonic confirms that he had worked with the Freedom Fighters in the past, even name-dropping Princess Sally.
29* ComicBookTime: {{Lampshaded}} in Episode 14 of ''Ask the Sonic Heroes'' when somebody inquires about the characters' ages. Tails is the exception to this, jumping from eight to twelve since the last episode.
30** Tails's age-up is justified given the in-universe explanation is that the events of ''VideoGame/SonicGenerations'' [[PlotRelevantAgeUp messed with the flow of time]].
31* CompositeCharacter: Every AlternateContinuity created [[WesternAnimation/SonicBoom before 2014]] is treated as canon for the characters, with BroadStrokes covering any discrepancies.
32* {{Crossover}}: Mario has made a couple cameos, in ''Sonic Chefs - Christmas Tree Cake'' and ''Silver's Neverending Story''.
33** Peach and Bowser have also made appearances in ''Among Us on the Ark''.
34* DarkAndTroubledPast: Shadow, Silver, Eggman and Maria suffer from this.
35* DraggedIntoDrag: Poor Knuckles was on the receiving end of a makeover by Cream in ''Ask the Sonic Heroes'' Episode 17.
36* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness:
37** ''Shadow and the [=Thir13en=] Ghosts'', as the first movie in the series, has its moments:
38*** Shadow utters the word "damn" a couple times. Since then, there has been no cursing.
39*** It is the only movie that has NoFourthWall, given the amount of times it's broken.
40*** The organs are recurring minor characters, but one of them was cut after making her only appearance in this film after Kn realized their work was attracting an audience and wanted to make their content more family-friendly. The character that was never seen again? Una the Uterus.
41* EpicFail: In ''Sonic Chefs - Mini Caramel Apples?'', the recipe failed to work out, resulting in hard, inedible caramel (as Big found out the hard way).
42* GoKartingWithBowser: Dr. Eggman joins in some of the ''Ask the Sonic Heroes'' episodes, and even participates in the Let's Plays on one occasion.
43* HeelFaceTurn: As revealed in Episode 17 Part 2 of ''Ask the Sonic Heroes'', Big apparently did some pretty awful things in the past, but is good now.
44* InsaneTrollLogic: Some of Big's reasoning for things can be this, as shown in ''Ask the Sonic Heroes''.
45* MysteriousPast: Discussed in Episode 17 Part 2 with Big.
46-->'''Big:''' (Now sounding like Duke Nukem) "There are many details to my origins that I dare not relate to mortal souls. For their spirits would crumble at the true horror that is... BIG THE CAT! (back to normal) I got better, though"
47* NoFourthWall: Fans ask the characters questions via the Website/YouTube comment section in ''Ask the Sonic Heroes'', making the fourth wall nearly nonexistent. Played up to eleven in Episode 20 when the characters start start referring to Knux and how much work she needs to put in upon viewer request.
48* OffTheShelfFX: Being a fan-made puppet show, this is pretty much a requirement.
49* PaperThinDisguise: Espio's disguise in ''Team Chaotix, Master Detectives!'' Charmy's is even thinner!
50* RippleEffectProofMemory: Despite the events of ''[[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006 Sonic '06]]'' being erased from history, everyone present during the events of the game remember the events clearly. The only exception to this is Princess Elise, and even then, she accidentally refers to Silver as Sonic during ''Silver's Neverending Story'', despite having never met him after the reset.
51* ShipTease: For somebody who is "too cool" for romance, Sonic spends a lot of time with Amy alone under his own free will.
52** Naturally given what happened between them before, Tails and Cosmo have received their own share over the years, only increasing once she was introduced into the cast properly during the ''Among Us on the Ark'' series and
53* SpaceMadness: A recurring theme during the ''Among Us on the Ark'' series, often used as an explanation for why those who are chosen as Impostors would dare to kill their Crewmate friends. While mainly a mental condition, it has been known to provoke physical changes to certain characters, most notably Cosmo during her first outings playing hide-and-seek.
54* StoryArc: Silver debuted in ''Be My Valentine - Or ELSE!'' and mentioned in the movie that he was looking for someone. This would become a recurring theme in his appearances until he finally found Blaze in ''Silver's Neverending Story,'' two years after his debut in the series.
55** Cosmo's memories seem to be the next story arc, if the latest episodes of ''Among Us on the Ark'' and ''Ask the Sonic Heroes'' are any indication.
56* ShowWithinAShow: ''WesternAnimation/SonicBoom'', ''Film/SonicTheHedgehog'', and ''WesternAnimation/SonicPrime'' are treated as in-universe adaptations of the characters.
