I wish he were still around. It sucks that Sonic Team and the like keep chipping away at Rouge's bust size and sex appeal, although I suspect the CERO is partially responsible for pushing those changes. Given how much Japan's aging public makes a big stink about "public morals," it really isn't surprising; yet those same moral guardians carp about men being "herbivores" (i.e. sexually passive and not vegan.)

Of course, we also have the Californian puritans applying pressure too. It sucks that busty women have to be so marginalized by the moral authorities.

This would be her fate if the guy who designed Rouge was still around.
