Misconceptions

In his How TMS Changed The International Version Of SONIC X video, the videomaker Hensama made some mistakes, because he used the Stitch Encodes as the Japanese version, although these encodes used the French masters for the video of season 2.

Namely:

  1. In episode 71, at 12:16, Amy’s shopping list is not blank in Japanese.
  2. In episode 76, at 10:35, the color of the text is only different in French.
  3. In episode 78, from 12:04 to 13:36, the color of the background and of the hedgehogs is only different in French.
