Amy Rose, also known as Rosy the Rascal, is my favourite character in the Sonic the Hedgehog series of video games, comics, and animated series developed by Sega. As a pink hedgehog, she is not only my second favourite colour but also one of the most prominent and popular characters in the series. I promised in an earlier article that I would go into detail about what I like about Amy Rose and why she shouldn’t be pushed aside (The problem with Sonic Origins) and those reasons are a bit more than having a cute and bubbly pink appearance with big round eyes!

This “rant” will go into detail on why I believe Amy Rose is the best character in the Sonic series, highlighting her unique characteristics, her role in the series, and her impact on the franchise.
