Mario VS Sonic | Sprite Battle

Hey everyone!

After many requests, I'm finally weighing in on the topic. Two iconic gaming rivals go head to head! It may or may not be noticeable, but I've started to draw heavy inspiration from animators like Jamix007 and OMM's TheWind, as I seriously admire their respective styles. I hope you all enjoy the video!

The channel just hit 3, 000 subscribers! Getting this far used to be a fever dream for me! I seriously can’t stress how thankful I am for all of you 😁

[eltonsstuff]

Nicely Done! I especially liked the ending- where Sonic offered a hand to Mario, Them sparing off as friendly rivals is such a welcome and refreshing change compared to other all or nothing battles they are usually depicted in!

[hyde]

I love how we’ve reached a point where Sonic and Mario do these matches for fun rather then to kill each other

[ari_dexel]

Ah the finishing blow is Sonic punching Mario into minecraft, classic

[SpacePea]

This is what I love about Sprite Animations and their creators. With every video, you'll see lots of improvement.
My God the choreography and everything was so amazing! Extremely satisfying to watch! And I see your channel exploding to
new heights, CONGRATS

[WahnTawns]

"Put 'em up, plumber!"

I love that line and Sonic's shoto stance.

[navyo]

Sonic smash moveset should have looked like this.

[teamsonicforcesquadts]

I like how instead of Sonic killing Mario, he helps him back up. Which is honestly why other channels get criticized in which ever side wins (cough)Deathbattle(cough)

[averagemariorpgfan]

I love how you gave Mario and Sonic distinct fighting styles that Most animators just forget about:

Sonic: Reliant on his Speed and Racks up damage Progressively (1:12 Example)


Mario: Utilizes his Firebrand Ability and Combat Knowledge to Deal as Much Damage as he Can without getting Rushed down (0:43 Example)


This Animation is Absolutely Perfect, and I mean Mark Haynes / Studio B.Animacao Perfect.

Inaccurate, Mario didn't go to Minecraft.

But seriously, loving sprite animation and voice acting.

[HeroTheHedgehog]

Hmm a Mario vs Sonic fight where the comment section is at peace? That’s a first

[benjaminmcneil]

Putting the emphasis on the 'friendly' part of their friendly rivalry, rather than battles to the death.

That alone made me love this above many other battles between these two.

Everything else was a very welcome and major bonus.

[vito]

The most realistic Mario vs Sonic fight.

[somerandomguyonthenet]

I like how the characters weren't too overpowered like in most animations. Since in the games their powers are very inconsistent. Sometimes they can survive a giant fall from the atmosphere to the ground and get up relatively unharmed while some times they can barely pack a punch because of plot.

[cober]

I think this is the only Sonic vs Mario animation on youtube that neither over-exaggerates nor underplays their abilities

[divineflamesanimations]

This looks so clean! The fact that u improved THIS much after the doomship remake is really impressive!

[AquaBlueTea]

Sonic’s dialogue at the end is TOP NOTCH. Sheesh man. Better than the recent games honestly lol

[rcventz]

I imagine Mario thinking at the beginning, “I can never get used to that speed.”

[kwuvdgq]

This sprite battles never get tiring, the battle was so good. I'm not sure if it was voice acting, but if it was, it was really good, and how Sonic roasted Eggman, really made me laugh. I wish they could make some type of crossover besides Olympics. That would be pretty amazing. Keep up the work dude.

[kovidarthehedgehog]

You voice Sonic here?

Edit: That sprite of Metal looks cool.
