Sonny Slaven, also known as TangentGrub4, is a British YouTuber and former Go!Animator. He's the creator and main protagonist of the Go!Animate comedy channel, Sonnyslavenproductions, where he portrays a fictionalized version of himself and gets up to random shenanigans on a regular basis. He is also the oldest of the four Slaven siblings, along with his brother Billy, and his sisters Rachael and Emily, as well as the co-star of the crossover Go!Animate sitcom series, Lawl Bros, alongside fellow former Go!Animator, Adamp5104.
Entrance: Motivational Wake Up Call[]
Sonny appears in bed trying to get up while Shia LaBeouf motivates him to wake up and start his day.
Move Origin[]
This entrance is inspired by the real Sonny Slaven's answer to a question on Ask.fm, as seen in the Gallery below.
Playstyle[]
Sonny, as a character, would frequently lose his shit in his old Go!Animate videos to the point where it seemed like it was just something he liked doing. More often than not, he would do reckless things without considering their consequences. Therefore in battle, he's seemingly too nuts to remember the drawbacks to his moves, and ends up suffering more than his foes if he isn't careful.
Neutral B: The Black Egg[]
Sonny throws an egg which causes 4% damage. Spots for the last 6 eggs thrown will be invisibly recorded. If Sonny runs into one of these spots, there is a 1/6 chance the black egg will be revealed to poison himself.
Move Origin[]
This move comes from a video which was a parody of this scene from an episode of The Simpsons.
Side B: "Awesome" Fighting[]
Sonny fights with Wheat, causing damage that keeps racking up like any other poisoning move. If anyone else gets involved, they will fall over gaining racking up damage also. If this happens, Sonny will gain 3% more damage than normal. This move lasts for 4 seconds each time. If Sonny gets hit with weak attacks, the Side B's damage ratio will increase by an extra percentage. If he gets hit by a strong attack or a special move, Wheat will be sent flying and knock Sonny back.
Move Origin[]
In one video, Sonny, Daniel Weywards, Chaos Sonic and Wheat started fighting after Wheat took offence to a dirty joke about Uranus, the joke being told by Daniel. The video was also a parody of an Adamp5104 video.
Up B: Flutterfly[]
Sonny gets carried by Fluttershy, his favorite pony. Because she is shy, she can only fly for a half-second per flight.
Move Origin[]
This move comes from the fact Fluttershy is Sonny's favourite pony.
Down B: The Clone Bomb[]
A barrel will be dropped onto Sonny's spot. After 3 seconds, the barrel will explode and create a clone of either Sonny or the closest enemy. The clone acts like an extra fighter in the same team as Sonny's opponents by only attacking Sonny. They can't be KO'd though. The only way to get rid of the clone is to defeat it. Careful because if Sonny tries to place another clone bomb while a clone is on stage, he'll explode.
Move Origin[]
In one bizarre SSP video, it was revealed that Sonny cloned Daniel, and gave the clone version Plastic Surgery, whilst killing the original Daniel by dropping a bomb on him, blowing him up.
Final Smash: Troll Runover[]
Sonny's sidekick, Daniel Weywards, decides to run the opponents over and asks Sonny if he has a car. Sonny says "no" but asks him if he has one and he does. They arrive in Daniel's Mystery Machine, where Sonny tells the opponents "You won't get away with this!" and drive after an opponent slowly. If it hits somebody, they will get buried to the ground with 100% more damage. Sonny will stay in the Mystery Machine for a while giving the opponent a chance to jump out and attack Sonny in the vehicle. Eventually, he'll get out.
Move Origin[]
In one video, Sonny and Daniel decide that they've had enough of Troll J's annoying attitude, and decide to run him over with Daniel's Mystery Machine. (Where'd he purchase that?) They find Troll J eventually, and, despite moving slowly, (To be fair, Sonny was still new to GoAnimate at the time) they succeed in running him over.
KO Sounds[]
KO Sound 1: Ahahahahahahahahahah!!!
KO Sound 2: Sawft!
Star KO: How can this get any worse?!
Screen KO: You suck!

Side Taunt: Points and angrily says "You shut your mouth!"
Down Taunt: Says "I will never die!" with his arms crossed.
Victory Options and Losage[]
Option #1: Celebrates by saying "Yes! Yes! Happy Days" and makes a glitch sounding cheer.
Option #2: Says "Thank you for watching Wiggles wo o o o o o o" before getting hit by a bottle.
Option #3: Says "Until next time GoBros, let's GoAnimate!"

Angry Boss: Finally... I have been waiting to funking destroy this rotten tomato for a very long time.
Angry Boss: Of course I have, you fool! You have no idea what it's like, Maddox! YOU HAVE NO IDEA! I have been forced to stay cooped up inside this fool's brain for AN ESCRUTIATING NUMBER OF GODDAMN YEARS!
Maddox: I understand, Boss--
Angry Boss: NO, YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH! YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND! YOU WILL LET ME TALK! If this is where I am to be fired, you let me have my moment to speak! The fool doesn't even know when to allow someone the right to speak! You children don't know anything...
Maddox: What are you talking about, Boss?
Angry Boss: I'm not even relevant anymore. I am forced to just stay in this child's brain. Nobody knows who I am. The viewers don't know who the Angry Boss is. A Boss? I am not a Boss, I'm just a funking character... I am not even a real person. I AM NOT EVEN A REAL PERSON, DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME!?
Maddox: Boss, you are real to the viewers--
Angry Boss: *Distraught* I'VE NEVER RUN A CORPORATION! I HAVE NEVER FIRED A MAN! I HAVE NEVER EVEN EATEN A REAL EPIC CAKE FOR GOODNESS SAKE! I DON'T KNOW ANYONE CALLED BRUCETON!

Maddox: It's more than that, Boss...
Angry Boss: Of course it isn't you fool!
Maddxox: Yes, it is. You're a part of Sonny. You're the parts where it's so obedient and so on track with things. You keep people in track.
Angry Boss: I just want people to remember me...
Maddox: They're going to remember you. Everything you did and how hard working you are... Boss, you need to win this match to prove that you can be better than Sonny ever was.
Angry Boss: Do you mean that?
Maddox: Yes, sir. It's something we need to do.
Angry Boss: For the greater good... I want this...I need this to be how they remember me... Very well, but I must ask you. Before I go, I demand that you promise me one thing... That folks will never forget the day that the Angry Boss saved us all. Do you promise me that?
Maddox: I promise.
Angry Boss: Lord have mercy... Farewell, Maddox, my favourite confidant.

To Donny Dlaven[]
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! YOWIE WOWIE!"
"Donny...? What the bloody hell are you doing here!?"
"It's good to see you again too, Sonny. I mean, look at you. LOOK AT YOU! You're doing great, man!"
"Quit sucking up to me, you sicko! What do you want from me!?"
"I'm gonna stop you right there. You do have me all wrong, Sonny. You see, I'm not sick. You are. I know why you came here, Sonny. And I know why you can't say no."
"Oh, really? Why do you think I'm here? Cause I have no interest in dealing with you right now. So please go away."
"You don't REALLY think we think that you care about this tournament, do we? I mean, Sonny Slaven cares about Sonny Slaven right? And it doesn't matter who he has to smash or bury along the way, as long as he gets his spotlight."
"The hell? That's not true at all!"
"Oh, yes it is! You see, a long time ago, when we were younger, you... You took something from me. And I thought about it a lot. Matter of fact, I thought about it so much, that I wanted to take my hands, and push them into my skull, and smash my brain into a million pieces just so that I could have five seconds of peace, without the voices talking to me. But the voices, they never stopped... And then, something magical happened!"
"What are you going on about? If you're here to fight, get on with it!"
"One day, I...I stopped fighting the voices. And I started listening to them. And they took my crooked little world, and they turned it into a majestic dollhouse! You broke me, Sonny. But the voices... They put me back together. And now, I'm going to break you. This is going to be a slaughter. You just don't know it yet."
"Right, that's it. I'm not just gonna stand here while you keep threatening me. I'm gonna do what I should've done years ago. I'm gonna end the existence of the most over-hyped, over-valued, over-privileged All Star Smasher in existence."
"Let me in, Sonny."
If Sonny Loses[]
"Sonny! Now that I'm done with you, you're gonna play with me... FOREVER!!!"
If Donny Loses[]
"Good riddance! Now take that stupid sweater off and go back to wearing my suits, you lunatic!"
To Lee Saunderson[]
"Bobby? Is that you?"
"Hey, what's up Doc? No. Now bow down to the king of Go!Animate. This battle will be easy."
"You? King? All you ever did in your Go!Life was make grounded videos."
"Says the guy who tries to flood his bro with a tsunami of character suggestions."
"Hey! Let me do the joking around here."
"It's no wonder you were given a joke moveset!"
"Egad! Let's fight!"
If Sonny Loses[]
"I may be the king of the tournament, Sonny, but you will always be the joker."
If Lee Loses[]
"Who's the joke now, bitch?! Now I'm the king of this tournament AND Go!Animate!"

Trivia[]
- Originally, Sonny's Screen KO involved him saying "You suck!" whilst in the appearance of NormsBarStool. In Horrid Henry's Final Smash, his Screen KO was updated to saying the same line, but in his normal appearance.
- Sonny was initially one of the 2 characters on the roster to have 3 KO sounds instead of 2. The other being Action 52. This was changed as of his Update Patch.
- He was also initially one of the 3 characters to have 2 Entrances. The others being Pete the Cheerful Bus Driver and Finn Palmer. This was changed as of his Update Patch.
- Originally, Sonny's Side-B also included Daniel and Chaos Sonic. However, as of Sonny's Update Patch, only Wheat appears in his Side-B.
- Sonny's line "How can this get any worse?" actually originated in All Star Smashers, before he said the same line in a future episode of Lawl Bros, which was confirmed by Adamp5104 to be an intentional reference to ASS.
