Something that always bugged me about the intro...

Not to mention that Japanese Sonic is a bit of a JerkAss IIRC.

Pretty much. I remember reading something about where they had to "soften him up" for the American release.

I suppose it depends on what generation we're talking, seeing as Sonic became MUCH snarkier on travelling to the US back in the pre-Dreamcast days.

As soft as a pillow, from what I've read.

It's always like this - espescially in Anime.. where alot of the blood, guts and swears are censored out.

Sonic X, anyone?
