    OK, so today I check my video of Sonic CD's ending sequence (Mega CD version) again just for kicks right? Well, I look at it again and I notice the part were Little Planet is hovering up to the clouds. As the planet's (I don't care what it is, that's not the point.) panning out, I thought I noticed it making a sad face. :(

    Here's a PNG of the poor looking thing in action.

    Here's another one close up too:

    Is it sad that Sonic rescued it? Is it sad that this is the only time it will ever be in a Sonic game ever again? I don't have a clue.

    EDIT: But doesn't it look like it has a nose and a frown face? Though, just like Flygon said, it's probably just me.

    It's probably unintentional and the human brain is picking it up as a human face unintentionally.

    God bless psychology.

    Probably not done on purpose, but I wouldn't be surprised if it were.

    What's more interesting to me is that the planet is apparently 80% landmass, with 98% of that mass being forest. Unless there's one massive ocean on the other side, where is all this life coming from?

    Under the surface of course. An underground ocean of MUD.

    Note that we never actually see much native life on Little Planet. Robotnik's robots all contain flowers, and you could assume that the animals that are freed from holo-Metal Sonic are Sonic's friends who tagged along - or perhaps, holograms themselves?

    Yes, it does. For about a few seconds I believe.

    I'll go ahead and make an animated GIF. Where can I get software to make one?

    Anyways, seeing as Little Planet appears over a lake, there could be some sort of transfer of water (vapor) from the lake to the planet. Perhaps it is the missing R2 level "Fog Forest."

    I love pareidolia!

    This is funny because the ending video contains two other intentional "hidden" faces - Sonic's as the sparkles cover the LP, and Robotnik's in the explosion.

    edit: in a desperate attempt to go back on topic, yes, little planet seems indeed sad.

    I never noticed the sad planet before...and damn how our minds love to play tricks on us like that.

    It's in the atmosphere of another planet. Rain from the larger planet should sustain it.

    Or they're really deep, but narrow lakes.

    That, or we're trying to make sense of Sonic again
