Other ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' animation adaptations which are made by other studios.

'''''[[Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie]]''''' is a two-episode OVA film series based upon the game ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog CD]]'' and the video game series as a whole. It was made in Japan in 1996 and released as a dub in North America in 1999. Unlike the games, the film takes place on a world named [[Planet Freedom]] that, as with many anime series, appears to be a crossbreed of a fairytale land and [[Earth]]. At the time of its creation, the anime did not differ as far from official canon as it does today; at this point, it could be considered to take place in an a different continuity than the games, just like other versions of ''Sonic'' from other media.

The anime series '''''[[Sonic X]]''''' is the longest-running and most successful animated series based on ''Sonic'' to date. Originally planned as a 52 episode series that would be inspired by the story lines of the ''[[Sonic Adventure|Sonic]] [[Sonic Adventure 2|Adventure series]]'', ''Sonic X'' has now expanded to 78 episodes with the latest 26 episodes set primarily in outer space (which those episodes were not broadcasted in Japan). ''Sonic X'' is also the only animated series to include [[Super Sonic (Sonic X)|Super Sonic]]. The main difference that sets this series from the other continuities is that [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Sonic X)|Sonic]] and his friends originally came from an unnamed planet that is in parallel dimensions with [[Earth (Sonic X)|Earth]].

The CGI animated television series, titled '''''[[Sonic Boom (TV series)|Sonic Boom]]''''', features a comedic take on [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Sonic Boom)|Sonic]] and his [[Team Sonic (Sonic Boom)|friends]] and their never-ending battles with [[Doctor Eggman (Sonic Boom)|Dr. Eggman]] as the main media of the ''[[Sonic Boom (series)|Sonic Boom]]'' sub-franchise. More than one hundred episodes with a duration of eleven minutes each have aired.

The latest show in the franchise called '''''[[Sonic Prime]]''''' was released for [[Netflix]]. ''The show'' is described as a "high octane adventure" and a "journey of self-discovery and redemption" following [[Sonic the Hedgehog/History and appearances (Sonic Prime)|Sonic]] and his race to save a "strange new [[multiverse]]." A fierce battle between Sonic the Hedgehog and [[Doctor Eggman/History and appearances (Sonic Prime)|Dr. Eggman]] results in a universe-shattering event which prompts Sonic to set off on a quest to restore the [[Shatterverse]] and save his friends, whom up until the moment he had taken for granted. Along the way, Sonic discovers both new worlds and new allies. The first season has eight episodes, while season two has the same amount of episodes that season one has, bringing the total of episodes to sixteen in the show. The third and final season was released in the beginning of 2024.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://twitter.com/rouleau1/status/1679980685489221632|work=Twitter|title=Duncan Rouleau on Twitter|publisher=Duncan Rouleau|date=14 July 2023|accessdate=13 August 2023}}</ref>
