Sonic Generations (ソニック ジェネレーションズ, Sonikku Jenerēshonzu^?) is a manga written and illustrated by Makoto Hirono that was published by ASCII Media Works in their Japanese gaming magazine Dengeki Nintendo DS. It is based on the video game of the same name. The first chapter of the Sonic Generations arc, which is chapter 38 of the overall Sonic the Hedgehog manga, was released on 11 September 2011. This arc would last for 7 chapters (overall 44 chapters), and would be the last Sonic game to receive a manga adaptation in Dengeki Nintendo DS.

It was preceded by Sonic Colors and followed by Sonic the Hedgehog (4-koma).

Synopsis

Notice: This product was only released in Japan and does not have an official English translation.

Tails invites Sonic to a birthday party where all his friends are waiting for him. Sonic thanks Tails and runs to the party. He greets them, but all his friends are staring at him in silence. Knuckles asks who he is. Sonic, confused, says: I’m the worldwide known hero, Sonic the Hedgehog! My favorite food is chili-dogs!

Tails then tells Sonic to look to his side. Sonic looks and sees a smaller version of himself. Modern Sonic claims that he is the real Sonic and gets in an argument with Classic Sonic. To resolve this, Modern Sonic challenges Classic Sonic to a speed challenge. Tails says this is nonsense, but Classic agrees. Tails shoots a pistol in the air and the two hedgehogs race through Green Hill.

Modern Sonic and Classic Sonic having a picnic.

Tails and Amy watch the two race and both agree they are about equal in speed. Modern Sonic starts to doubt himself, but then the hedgehogs come to a grinding halt when a Moto Bug and a Buzzer get in their way. The two heroes Spin Dash and destroy the two Badniks. Afterwards, the two hedgehogs befriend each other. As Tails, Knuckles, and Amy look for the two Sonics, they find them having a picnic in Green Hill eating chili dogs.

• The lineup of characters that attended Sonic's birthday party is slightly different from the game. Compared to the console version's cutscene, Blaze and the Chaotix members are absent, instead featuring Big, Froggy and E-123 Omega, who didn't appear there originally.
