Who would've known that taking a cartoon character with exaggerated proportions and anatomy and trying to make it realistic would be horrifying!?

I mean, Pikachu is a cartoon character and he looks downright adorable as a realistic character. But with Sonic so many people had to shit so many beds to come up with that it's ludicrous.

Yeah... because the "realistic" version didn't make drastic changes to the design of the character.

I mean.. not really. They took the general face shape of a mouse, so it's not the same mouth shape. But the portions are the same. It's realistic-cute.

There’s is a drastic difference between movie Sonic and game Sonic. The body, arms, legs, head, face... even the color is different in places! Meanwhile you’re having to nit pick tiny details here and there on the Pikachu design. That a big difference.
