Halloween 🎃

Characters are written with a certain age in mind for reasons! It explains the way they think and act within a narrative, and what choices that leads to. Genre and primary target audience are also very common factors.

Why do the Spiderverse movies put more focus on the teens? Why are the main characters and most of their rivals kids in series like Avatar: The Last Airbender or Pokemon? Why Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles specifically? There is thought put into all of these choices.

Just because you are getting older, doesnt mean your favorite characters should, too. Maybe Sonic was your childhood, but there are children TODAY discovering these things for the first time and they are more likely to do so via new releases & reboots, rather than the originals (especially when older media isnt as accessible to them)

Sure, there can be some variation among individual titles geared towards either younger or older audiences (compare Superstars and Frontiers) but theyre still distinctly kids/teens. You can still enjoy these stories and empathize with its characters, but maybe from a different perspective as you grow up.

actually did not realize how bad the age debate was until recently, ive been stumbling over way too many blogs glad they "removed canon ages" or saying that the characters should be way older because it "doesnt make sense" with how many adventures theyve had

its a cartoon franchise. primarily aimed at teens and children. the whole Point is having these kids stand up to evil & injustice and go on world changing adventures. the characters are within that age range so the target audience can relate to and be inspired by them

Team Cybonic -> Cyborg Amy -> ROSETTE

Rosette is the most drastic change among the cyborgs. Ironically, she loosens up much more compared to Amy, accentuating her energetic nature.

She sort of slowly stumbles into the rock scene and eventually makes quite a name for herself, often performing together with Cyan or touring artists. Her baking hobby is kinda substituted with metallurgy, usually keeping her out in the field and in forges.

She's also one of the few cyborgs to wear actual clothes, both for fashion and because she otherwise feels nude with nothing but her metal plating.
