Take a good look at yourself, Sonic! Doctor Eggman?! It's the last look you'll get before I close your eyes forever! Hoo ho ho ho ho ho ho ho!
It is a nameless room located in White Space. The “Mirror Room” is a corridor with a dark layout surronding a wall of transparent glass that stands in the middle of it's room, creating two pathways.
A row of white chandeliers hang on both sides of the glass. At both ends of the room, doors of sentient made, marble-like architecture of unknown, non-egg or metallic themed origins lead into and out of the space. The same marble that held up the windows. Above the doors, a lead-like ring hang over the entrance. One of the doors, when open, exhibit pouring light that happened to lead directly to the Death Egg. It's unknown if the doors can be seen from outside of the room.
It is further unknown if other Boss Gates contain this space, aside the one leading to the Death Egg Robot. Given the decorations, the space seems to have some sort of significance. However, the location doesn't appear to be advantageous to the traveler or dangerous with any sort of trap, leading to it's purpose ultimately unknown as it seems unnecessary for an individual to traverse through in the Boss Gate portals.
History[]
Past[]
When the location was created is unknown. It likely was created by the Time Eater as White Space formed, as Dr. Eggman knew to taunt into the space to get Sonic into the boss room faster.
After going through the Boss Gate, two Sonics from the past and the present found themselves in a dark hallway with "mirrors" in the middle.
As the Sonics walked through the corridor, they notice each other on the other side of the glass. As the glass is shift transparent, they saw the other as a strange reflection in the mirror and began mimicking each other's movements. As they were beginning to notice something strange, they suddenly hear the echoing voice of Dr. Eggman taunting them. Modern Sonic reacts with an "oh brother" attitude but Classic Sonic storms ahead after the doctor with urgency. Modern Sonic then realizes that the other Sonic was not his reflection, but literally another Sonic, and tries to go after him, only to be shut out.
Trivia[]
If one were to play both versions of the cutscene side-by-side, they won't sync up properly:
In Modern Sonic's cutscene, he looks around after hearing Dr. Eggman's voice and later puts his left arm on his hip. He does neither of these in Classic Sonic's version of this cutscene.
In Modern Sonic's cutscene, he realizes it was another Sonic before Classic Sonic jumps through the door. In contrast, he comes to this conclusion only after Classic Sonic has already gone through in Classic Sonic's cutscene.
When rewatching this cutscene in the Collection Room, it will only present the version played when first entering the boss fight.
This cutscene was reanimated in MotionBuilder to test out character expressions and movement via deform technology for Sonic X Shadow Generations.[1]
