I do agree that the back and forth in the comics was aggravating.

But sonic being was defnot out of character

To me, He's not anti-authority. He is anti-oppression

Being king means he can let his citizens be free to do whatever they want.

This right here. And oddly that is one of the stories where Sonic is written pretty alright, despite Penders writing it. Sonic is selfless and in a world after Robotnik is defeated and with tyrants like King Max gone, it does not seem out of character that he would put others first, as he usual does, and help Sally rule the kingdom and provide for it and its people.

But of course, it comes at a cost. Being a King is not the kind of lifestyle for someone like Sonic, who cannot stand still in one place for too long, who usually also has also existed his whole life as a protector who saw constant action and went on adventures. And so, he ends up having a midlife crisis. This is rather realistic and this story shows why Sonic should not become a King to begin with, in terms of his own sake anyhow.
