Happy birthday Sonic!!
今日でソニックも29周年ですね。
6月23日をソニックの誕生日って僕が決めたのですが、今思うと色々と気になります。
ソニック誕生日にソニックナノブロックが届きました。
日本では今週映画ソニック公開で楽しみです。

Looking back I’m filled with memories as I was the one who originally decided that his birthday would be June 23rd. By pure coincidence today Sonic Nanoblocks arrived at my house.
This week the Sonic Movie will come out in Japan.
Thank you to all the fans who have loved the Sonic series for such a long time.
