It seems to have gone down very well indeed with fans who were repulsed by the original, and now Sonic&#8217;s creator Yuji Naka has also shared an opinion.<\/p>\n<p>Back in May, Naka-san expressed that <a class=\"external\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2019\/05\/sonics_co-creator_feels_responsible_for_movie_trailer_backlash\">he felt &#8220;responsible&#8221;<\/a> for the backlash received by the original movie trailer and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2019\/05\/yuji_naka_thanks_sonic_fans_for_encouraging_movie_director_to_change_controversial_design\">thanked fans<\/a> for encouraging the film&#8217;s director to make changes. It seems he, too, is mostly happy with the new design; he shared the following message to Twitter alongside the new trailer (translations by <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dualshockers.com\/yuji-naka-comments-new-sonic-movie-redesign\/?utm_source=dlvr.it&amp;utm_medium=twitter\">DualShockers<\/a>):<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;This is the new trailer with Sonic\u2019s new design. The design is much more Sonic-like now that he\u2019s wearing gloves. However, his eyes still aren\u2019t joined together, as expected. I can\u2019t help but feel weird about that one point. But I\u2019m looking forward to the movie\u2019s release.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><\/blockquote>\n<p>Interestingly, just before that tweet, Naka revealed that he still wants to be able to see how the original film would&#8217;ve looked. <em>We&#8217;re not sure we agree, but there you are<\/em>.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Sonic\u2019s new design for the movie is out. However, it seems they\u2019re making it as if the old design didn\u2019t exist, as the movie official account\u2019s old tweets were deleted. I wanted to see a special DVD version of the movie which used the old design. Too bad.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Earlier today, we took a closer look at the new trailer and the original to create <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2019\/11\/gallery_sonic_movie_trailer_comparison_pics_-_check_out_before_and_after_sonics_redesign\">a gallery of side-by-side comparisons<\/a>.
