As for the ending, I think the writers were pressed to name the village after Sonic the Hedgehog in one way or another, so instead of Sticks naming the village Pleasent Valley or Roseville to more directly honour her friend, just went with the name "Hedgehog" because thats just so happened what Amy is to relate to Sonic. I mean, when has Amy ever been refered to as "Amy Rose the Hedgehog"? I guess Sonic Chronicles technically counts.

Also, are we renaming the Unnamed Village artical to Hedgehog Village? I don't doubt that's going to happen, seeing as no one had a problem with the name in-universe (except Knuckles... and maybe Sonic, being the egotistical guy that he is).

Anyway, I also enjoyed the episode. Felt pretty bad for Sticks, getting nothing but hatred spewed in her direction simply for being the descendant of an evil man and learning that unfortunate truth in the first place.

Also, I have to give Amy a hand-- she really came through for the Village this time, with aid from the library. Honestly, she kinda deserves the honor of the Village being named after her for that. Eggman gets an honorable mention for (briefly) managing to finally take over. Sonic Chronicles technically doesn't due to Penders lawsuit, but I mean on a regular occasion.

I just wish Sticks put more thought on naming the village than just the word "Hedgehog". Sonic did thought it was in his honour to begin with and I bet that was the intent on the writers part. In a sense, Sticks was manipulated by the "Man".

I did thought the village would end up being called Pleasent Valley and I genuinely liked that name. The very least "Roseville" as to be actually named after Amy as Sticks intended.
