Full panel

I wanna say one thing... People are blaming Sega. but this is just how the cookie crumbles in union productions.

Dang, not sure how to feel if they do the Jp dubbing route and grab a different guy for the voice, OR if he's just gonna be completely mute Looks like they're in a bit of a pickle here... which is... funny, cuz the Werehog ain't even a different guy

I LOVE this panel. Roger is so funny, man 😭

For real! I don't know HOW he does it. He's like an energy vampire that somehow can take any situation and rizz it somehow. You can tell he started as a comedian.

Yeaaaaah at this rate, the werehog is gonna be mute. I have a bad feeling about this

Well that would explain why he didn't play metal overlord, you would've have thought that would have been a given due to the fact that it's freaking metal sonic, but instead of paying roger more, they decided to go for another voice actor

"I wish for more Sonic characters"

Modders, you know what to do

😔
