>>36298792Edgy typically refers to one of two things, either attempting too be on the cutting-edge in an attempt to be cool or something trying too hard to be cool while being unaware of how it actually comes across. It mostly gets used in referral to things that are dark in nature for that second reason. The Sonic series is mostly a victim of this, first of all with Sonic being a progressive "way past cool" character in his early years and then much later with Shadow whose sombre tone heavily contrasted with the rest of the animals in the series, coming off so strongly that he became an easy target to make fun of.
