Sonic 06! I unironically enjoy the gameplay despite the glitches, I love the ost and story, and it has two of my favorite Sonic characters (Sonic and Elise, also my favorite sonic ship). It's a game that means a lot to me in general.

Thirteen (サーティーン, Sātīn ? ) is a character that was set to appear in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. During the initial development of the original Sonic the Hedgehog, Thirteen was created to serve as a replacement antagonist until an ending could be decided. Like many other early ideas, the figure was scrapped before the final release.
Concept and creation
Thirteen was created around 1989 as the main antagonist of "Twin Stars", a game concept introduced to Sega by Naoto Ohshima. This concept would eventually evolve into Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit) and as such, for a short time, Thirteen served as a replacement antagonist for the game until the final antagonist, Dr. Robotnik, was created.
Appearance
Thirteen is a giant monstrous creature with a gaping mouth full of sharp teeth, a long nose, eyes with white pupils and red sclera, and at least one three-fingered hand with claws. Thirteen's torso and lower half are not seen.

Curiosities
• The name Thirteen is a reference to superstitions about the number 13 being unlucky.
@death-rebirth-senshi oh god no wait i'm remembering decades of "chris thorndyke is SELFISH" discourse because he did a stupid thing where he almost made the world explode or something because he didn't want sonic to go home and if he didn't then it would apocalypse and it was that much more potent because people hated the character anyway for regular reasons and that just tipped everyone right over the edge
but that's because it's a bad show guys
this is like people going "oh man cloud is SO AWFUL and HATES HIS FRIENDS in advent children" sincerely like there is not even enough going on in that movie intellectually to judge it on that level? shit let's talk about the queer coding of paul blart in mall cop 2 while we're at it i guess
