Who is Better? "Sonia or Manic"; (the bother and sister of the famous sonic)

Just wanting to know one thing;
is sonia or "Manic" better?

here is all you need to know about them:

Manic
----------
Manic plays the drums in the band of the three siblings Sonia, Sonic, and himself. Like his siblings, he possesses a medallion resembling a drumkit that doubles as a weapon.
Manic's character is a pickpocket, placing him in the lowest role of growing up for the siblings: Sonic lived in an average home, while Sonia lived like a princess. When their mother was forced to separate them, his basket was stolen and brought to the thief, Ferrel, who raised Manic to be a thief. Though Sonia has a distaste for Manic's lifestyle (and his tolerance for sewers), his thieving skills and mastery with computers and machines is greatly needed. Manic seems to be the only one of the three that can pick locks, get away with stealing, fix auto machinery, and hack into computers. While he gets defensive when his old background is criticized, he grew up without ever feeling he had a real home until he met his siblings. Manic is the "laid back" sibling, and slangs sometimes in the show.
Manic possesses neither his brother's speed nor his sister's strength, thus making him the only member of the Sonic Underground with no superpowers on his own. However, when used properly, his drumset can control the earth, creating seismic activity under Manic's direction, and can also fire lasers like those of his siblings. His cymbals can even reflect laser fire. According to the Oracle, his drums are the most powerful weapon of the three. He rides on a hover board which also acts like a surfboard.

Manic, of course, plays the drums in Sonic Underground. He can twirl his sticks with his left hand (later episodes show with his right hand), twirl both sticks in his right hand (shown twice), and throw them in the air and catch them like what most drummers do. His sticks are small, and "bend".
Manic's singing voice was done by Tyley Ross. His voice is smoother (in the French shows it was scratchy like Sonic's singing in the American), and can go pretty high in songs like "Working Together In Harmony" and "Fun In The Sun".
However, for some reason, in the episode "Sleepers", Manic's speaking voice is lower than normal

Sonia
---------
Sonia is one of the heirs to the throne of Mobius, who are prophesied to rule as the Council of Four. In order to fulfill this prophecy, Sonia was separated from her family shortly after birth. She was raised by the wealthy Lady Windemere until she was 15, when Windemere was roboticized by Dr. Robotnik. Following the "song in her heart", she found her brothers Sonic, and Manic. After a period of training, she and her brothers set out to find their lost mother, defeat Dr. Robotnik, and restore order to Mobius.

As she was raised with luxury and wealth, Sonia tends to be quite high maintenance, spoiled, and snotty. She hates getting dirty and constantly worries about the condition of her hair and clothes. Although she appears to be selfish, she is generally good natured and helps those that are in need. Sonia is known to occasionally talk like a valley girl, despite being voiced by a male in the English variation of the show.
Sonia is very self-sufficient and does not hesitate in taking on any threat or challenge that she may encounter, often coming out on top. She likes to think things through and on many occasions, has helped her brothers out of their own troubles (altough she sometimes thinks of them as nothing more than pains)

Sonia and her brothers are the members of the band "Sonic Underground", who perform various songs as they travel. She plays the keyboard as she has been a great pianist since childhood, as shown in the episode "Beginnings". Her keyboard occasionally sounds like an organ. In the song "Liberty Rocks", Sonia is shown to be able to play the piccolo as well. Her singing voice is so remarkably different from her regular voice that it sounds country-like, as opposed to Sonia's normal high pitched, "girlfriend" voice, however, in Fun in the Sun, she can sing very low.

it is way too cold for this
-waves the "I'M THE MANIC FANATIC" flag-

He'll always have a special place in my heart. He's one of the characters I talk to in my head sometimes.

Plus his singing VA is <3. He's got the best one. Sonic has freaking... Double D. Why couldn't Manic have been the lead vocalist? Maybe people would've liked the show more. xD

Okay, I understand that you might not like the two, but that made you come off as sort of a prick.

I like Manic, he is so cool. Sonia's voice is kind of annoying and I don't think she's that cool.
