Chao are like Chuck E. Cheese in the movies
Chao are little alien-like creatures in the Sonic universe, looked after by the blue blur and his friends. These guys debuted in Sonic Adventure and have been a mainstay in the franchise since, but they’ve never appeared in the movies, until now…sort of. It looks like Chao will debut in the live-action films as mascots—in the trailer we see Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles hanging out in a Chuck E. Cheese-like establishment in Tokyo, where performers and servers are dressed as the little guys. The place is then shown being attacked by what we assume are Doctor Robotnik’s machines. Between this and the fact that Sega refuses to make a standalone Chao Garden game, Chao can’t catch a break.
