I know they never show it but...it kind of makes me wonder if Blaze's parents were still around...or if she was orphaned? I think that might be the case with a lot of Sonic characters...but the reason I ask this is because she's still a princess.
If her parents have died, or are missing somehow, I'd imagine she'd have undergone a coronation ceremony and would be known as Queen Blaze the cat. I could have sworn some manuals might have referred to her as such? I'd have to look into it.
It also seems if she's indeed the crown princess, the one responsible for being future Queen, she'd have a lot of responsibility between that AND guarding the Sol Emeralds. You'd think they want to divide some of that responsibility...unless of course she's the only surviving descendant of the royal family. Maybe they have a tradition where you have to be a certain age to be officially coronated? Hard to say.
Sally is a good parallel, though I think she knows her father's still alive and she's still pretty young yet...which might be why she hasn't been coronated either. I'd like to see her meet Blaze...but I can't remember if it happened in Archie or not. I imagine though if they met in SatAM, they'd be rivals at first...but maybe later friends? Hard to know. I do have a hard time believing Mobotropolis is the only Kingdom on the entire planet...but if they went the alternate dimension route for a hypothetical SatAM adaptation (since it won't happen in real life...unless you know...Sonic Prime uses SatAM references and we finally get the closure we've been waiting for for years) then that could still be a possibility. But Blaze's Kingdom could also be a separate Kingdom on Mobius itself...which might be interesting. I dunno how they would handled it.
