Can we talk about how confident Tails was in this clip? I really loved that, apparently, the writers understood the real essence of Tails, he is a boy who is shy, polite, kind and curious but he also has these little moments where he shows this confidence of his, it doesn't get to be ego or acting like a sarcastic little shit, they are moments where he has total confidence in what he does and is happy to show it.
Here he challenges Sonic and even encourages him during the race, he is small and not at all exaggerated, I loved it.
