(Thread) Big the Cat isn’t stupid. In Adventure, He builds fishing poles (that double as multi tools) from scratch in the woods, he built a working windmill that powers the lightbulbs for his house all on his own. He piloted a plane, navigated to his home, and landed it.
Adventure was the game that let us learn about Big. The other games he’s in, he’s with groups of characters. Big’s ‘weak point’ in his smarts is social interaction. He comes off as stupid to viewers because he talks slower and doesn’t get social cues quickly.
It isn’t fair to equate slow speech and social confusion as stupid. Big is just wired differently. His speech/social shouldn’t be the deciding factor when hes lived alone probably his whole life, and he’s in a game where everyone’s hyperactive and WAY TOO FAST
Misconceptions about Big:
-dub voice actor(s) purposely making a cartoonish dumb voice. BUT in Japanese he sounds like a little whimsical character from a kids cartoon (JP Winnie the pooh VA)

-people think he’s stupid (or even creepy) for being obsessed with froggy. Across tons of sonic media, it is shown that Froggy loves being with Big. They’re literally friends. Froggy wants to be found (in SA, he’s just brainwashed by Chaos)
-people think he’s dumb because he is always hanging out with the girls. He is based on Totoro, he is protective of those smaller than him, and he’s everyone’s friend. He’d give his life to protect Amy and Cream like his own little sisters, change my mind
ANYWAYS
a dopey, simple-natured Big is a good Big, but if you dare touch him with mean words like stupid, idiot, or the r-slur, I see you and I think you’re unnecessarily an asshole to the one slower-processing, fat character and it says a lot about yourself. Be nice

Can’t believe I have to make threads about this every single year I’m on the internet because I always see the meanest comments towards Big by fans everywhere. Hate a bitch that has a cutesy sonic oc avatar and is like “big has 1 IQ XD” go fuck yourself you’re not funny or cute
