SEGA has announced it will be releasing a new manga on 18th October which documents Sonic Chao and Shadow Chao on a special journey.
It's officially titled Sonic X Shadow Generations X Chao and will be written by fan favourite Ian Flynn, with lines by Misa Shion and colours by Min Ho Kim. No other information has been shared beyond this, but we do have an illustration to go with this announcement:
"While Sonic and Shadow go through their journey in SONIC X SHADOW GENERATIONS...what are the Chao up to? Join the Sonic Chao and Shadow Chao on a special journey by @IanFlynnBKC ! The SONIC X SHADOW GENERATIONS X CHAO manga releases next Friday, October 18th!"
As you might have guessed, this is all part of the lead up to the release of Sonic X Shadow Generations which will arrive next week on 25th October 2024. Sonic fans have also recently been treated to a three-part anime-style series called 'Dark Beginnings'. The final episode aired for free last week.
When we find out more about this new Sonic manga, we'll let you know.

Bring back the chao garden already! How hard can it be? It was my favourite feature in Sonic Adventure 2 Battle. What a great game.
@Drachma I spent more time farming the levels for my Chao than anything else in that game, lol. They really should bring it back!
What about a standalone chao garden game with expanded upon mechanics?
@Pillowpants
Same!
Pretty cool, really should check this and the other Sonic manga/comics when I can!
And yes, despite what Iizuka said (https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2024/09/sonic-fans-dont-get-your-hopes-up-for-a-standalone-chao-garden-game) there's no good reason to not have Chao Garden as a standalone game or at least as part of a non-Adventure game considering they did exactly that in the past between a standalone phone game and its inclusion in the first two Sonic Advance games and Pinball Party!
It’s so hollow the way they keep using them like this, remember chao? Remember chao garden? Well don’t worry we won’t bother to ever bring that back but remember chao? Here’s a a manga by Ian “Remember This” Flynn.
After the last article about them "not being able" to separate the garden for a standalone game, I dug out my Dreamcast to fire up Sonic Adventures 1 and 2. Unfortunately, my Dreamcast has lost the ability to read discs. However. I did find 2 Sonic A1 chaos and 1 Sonic A2 Chao on my VMUs (Along with the Skies of Arcadia ship).
BRING BACK THE GARDEN!

Really wish they'd be bringing this to Europe as well; Would love to read more about the Chao in Flynn's style. Excellent writer
Do younger generations even really know what these are? I grew up with the SA series and I love them, but apart from Cream's chao, have they been in anything else substantially?
