afro-japanese-brazilian rouge. who here sees my vision (because brazilians are often considered latine or latin american in at least usamerican contexts, some degree of african, usually nigerian, ancestry is common in many brazilian people, and japanese because in sonic prime, her voice actress, kazumi evans, is a japanese woman).
this way we can combine many popular headcanons for rouge (namely black and latina headcanons, though unfortunately many people forget afrolatinas exist) AND add a new one based on one of my favorite voice actress' for rouge in the current year's ancestry (kazumi evans is so good and captures so many nuances to rouge's character through her playing of various paradox prism version rouges) (BUT PLEASE WHOEVER DOES THE VOICE CASTING AND DIRECTION FOR MODERN SONIC GAMES FIRE KAREN STRASSMAN AND HIRE TIANA CAMACHO FOR ROUGE. I BEG OF YOU. TIANA CAMACHO HAS DEMONSTRATED THROUGH GOODBYE LARA THAT SHE CAN DO A ROUGE THE BAT LIKE VOICE WITH GRACE/LADY WITCH'S FISH FORM GON-CHAN. AND SHE ACTUALLY SOUNDS LIKE IN THAT RANGE 4KIDS ERA ROUGE WHO WAS MY FAVORITE ROUGE PROBABLY OUT OF NOSTALGIA BUT SHE WAS GENUINELY SO GOOD THAT SAXOPHONE MUSIC IN THE SONIC X SOUNDTRACK 4KIDS ADDED WHENEVER SHE WAS PRESENT /FIT/ HER. PLEASE. LISTEN TO ME. I KNOW MORE ABOUT VOICE CASTING THAN MOST STUDIOS AS AN AUTISTIC PERSON WITH A LIFELONG SPECIAL INTEREST IN VOICE ACTING. NOBODY LISTENS TO ME BUT I'M SO RIGHT.)
