The mysterious pink-haired character from SEGA's Sonic the Hedgehog series has resurfaced in a new television spot for Paramount's upcoming third Sonic film, appearing on an animated billboard in Japan.

Why it matters: Fans have speculated about her role ever since first appeared in a 2022 episode of TailsTube, a YouTube animated series hosted by Miles "Tails" Prower.
