Sonic Underground - Vol. 1 (Animated) (DVD)

I loved sonic underground when I was younger, so when I saw it priced at just £0.97, I had to get it. The disc includes two episodes - "Last Resort" and "Come out Wherever You Are". As I am keen to start writing a few reviews I've decided to review both episodes. Please note there are no special features on this disc.

LAST RESORT
Written by Michael Edens

While escaping from some of Doctor Robotnic's warriors Sonic, Manic and Sonia stumble across an oasis which looks just like Mobios before Robotnic placed himself in charge. This oasis is called Lake Valley Resort. Sonic is amazed by the sheer beauty he is surrounded by during his stay. The person in charge is a tiger named Stripes. He and Sonia fall in love at first sight but Sonia goes on to find that Stripes has made a deal with Robotnic. Robotnic leaves the valley alone if Stripes robotosizes all members of the resistance. While Sonic is out playing tennis with himself (he's so fast he can serve the ball and return it himself) his brother, Manic gets caught steeling. Manic is surprised to receive a whole bag of apples once he is caught. However, as soon as the resistance is mentioned everyone gets REALLY angry at Manic. The people of the valley think that if the resistance were to stop fighting there would be peace again. Stripes then turns Sonic and Manic in to Robotnic. What will happen to Sonic and Manic? Will they get out alive or will they be robotosized? This is one of my favorite episodes
Features the song "Listen to Your Heart Girl" sung by Sonia.
Episode Rating: 5/5
I loved this episode when it was on T.V. and now I watch it at least once a week. I think I'm addicted to Sonic Underground.

Come Out Wherever You Are
Written by Ben Hurst and Pat Allee

Sonia gets an invitation to the debutante ball, where she will be officially announced to society. Before she goes, she and her brothers have an important mission to do. Robotnic has constructed a plane which will go all around the world catching freedom fighters. There is one last part needed on the plane. An organically grown brain. Their mission is to put a sleeper on the brain which will give them control of the plane. Their mission doesn't go exactly to plan as Sonia is very sidetracked by her invite. She gets caught while fantasizing about the ball. Once they have finished their mission, Sonic and Bartlbey, the person in charge of the ball, come up with a way to get Sonia to go to the ball. However, Sonia is chosen as the pilot for the plane but it's on the same night as the ball. Will Sonia be able to do both? Or will she have to choose between the ball and the plane?
Features the song "Society Girl" sung by Sonia.

I love this episode too but don't watch it as often as "Last Resort"

Theme Song

Three triplets born,
The throne awaits.
A seer warns of a deadly fate.
Give up your children,
Separate.
Bide your time,
Lie and wait.

CHORUS
Sonic Underground
Sonic Underground.

They made a vow,
Their mother will be found

The children grow,
Learn what's right.
Leaders of the freedom fight.
They seek their mother,
She knows the do.
This in time is the only do.
Will the prophecy come true?

CHORUS

"I long for my children,
But I have to wait.
To act too soon could seal their fate."

They made a vow,
Their mother will be found.
SONIC UNDERGROUND!
