* HilariousInHindsight: The idea of non-final bosses being strong enough to challenge Super Sonic would become canon with the Titans of ''VideoGame/SonicFrontiers''.

* CharacterDerailment: Besides living in a different setting, [[VideoGame/NightsIntoDreams NiGHTS]]' personality here doesn't have much in common with the original one, being a BigGood and TheGoodKing instead of a PeterPanParody and AntiAntiChrist. Thought it could be {{justified}} thanks to a majority of the series being released before [[VideoGame/NightsJourneyOfDreams the sequel]] (released in 2007) better estabilished [[=NiGHTS=]]' canon personality [[AllThereInTheManual outside the manuals]], and/or the [[=NiGHTS=]] series in general being a CultClassic.

** The most iconic piece of music associated with the series, to the point of being arguably a BootstrappedLeitmotif for Seelkadoom, would be "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDWnzJR2ZZI Welcome to the Darkness]]" from ''VideoGame/ChaosLegion''. This is the theme heard during Episode 8 when Sonic and Shadow confront Seelkadoom, as well as the theme that plays for [[spoiler:Apex Seelkadoom during the third phase's second half in Episode 10]].
** The final phase of the boss fight against [[spoiler:Apex Seelkadoom]] in Episode 10 is accompanied by "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alLogjK5ESQ The Apex of the World (Thunder)]]" from ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThreeHouses'', which serves as a frantic but climactic last struggle against [[spoiler:Apex Seelkadoom]], where the player must clear a series of [=QTEs=] in order to distract him long enough for [[spoiler:Knuckles to recite the Master Emerald's chant and defeat Seelkadoom once and for all]]. Its usage makes the moment sound like it's truly AllOrNothing at this point.

Added DiffLines:

* SongAssociation: Many likely only heard of ''VideoGame/ChaosLegion'' and its first level theme, "Welcome to the Darkness", thanks to this game, where it is usually treated as Seelkadoom's theme. This is strengthened by after appearing once in Episode 8 during the boss battle between Sonic, Shadow and Seelkadoom, it plays a second time during Episode 10, [[spoiler:during the third stage and second half of Apex Seelkadoom's fight]]. It's hard to come across a video of ''Chaos Legion'''s OST without someone mentioning ''Sonic RPG''.

* RecurringFanonCharacter: Possibly on the same level as [[WebAnimation/NazoUnleashed Nazo]], Seelkadoom is a frequent character that fans love to mod into to games or make animations about, mainly due to him just being [[EvilIsCool a powerful and evil villain]]. [[spoiler:His super form, Apex Seelkadoom, also gets the same treatment, despite being on-screen for a very short amount of time]].

* RetroactiveRecognition: Sonic, Knuckles, and Eggman's voice actor, starting from Episode 9, is [=TomSTheVoice=], aka. Tom Schalk. This was before his breakout popularity in popular Internet-based productions such as his meme reads, ''WebAnimation/ReturnToKrocodileIsle'', and appearances in productions by Creator/TeamFourStar.

* DifficultySpike: Episode 6 is reported to be the hardest episode in the entire series. While Mecha Sonic isn't that difficult of a fight, Dr. Eggman is the definite show stopper, thanks to his Master Emerald-empowered attacks doing a disproportionally large amount of damage while Tails has pathetically small resources required to put him down. It's not uncommon to find yourself near-death and lacking the MP needed to defend yourself from the next big blast.
