Fan Poll Wave the Swallow and Marine the Raccoon Battle in May Sonic Channel Fantasy Poll

[Sonictrainer]

In what has become a monthly tradition, SEGA's Japanese Sonic Channel team has opened a poll to ask fans which character they would like to see in the next Isekai 'Fantasy Artwork' episode due later this month. This time around, Tails will be the star of the show, but only Wave the Swallow or Marine the Raccoon can ultimately join him.

Just like many of the previous polls, both options feature side (or minor) characters that would benefit from some new official artwork. Wave the Swallow made her debut in the spinoff racing series Sonic Riders, while Marine the Raccoon's only appearance has been in the Nintendo DS sequel Sonic Rush Adventure.

It is probably the latter fact that explains why Marine is currently pulling ahead in the poll at time of writing, which is now taking place on a Google Form rather than directly on Twitter. There are many fans that want to see more of Marine, it seems!

As for the scenario, as per usual that is mostly a mystery but we do have some clues. According to machine translation of the Sonic Channel's social media accounts, Tails will be presented as a "prince of the entertainment world", and whoever wins this next poll will join him as his "princess".

Who would you like to see win the poll? Let us know in the comments section below!

It's great to see some more obscure or forgotten characters getting some representation! I love Sonic Riders so I've got high hopes for the Wave art.

Actually, the results were posted and Marine won

and once again it wasn't even close.

I guess I can't complain too much considering we are getting art of long lost characters like Vanilla and Marine, but it'd be nice if the polls offered an actual choice in the winner.

 

Having such lopsided victories defeats the purpose of even asking us in the first place.  Its not much of a poll if you already know who's going to win.
