Sonichu Fan

For a web-comic it's not a bad idea. The fact that Chris treats it like copyrighted material is ridiculous, but it is a clever character mashup!
Sonichu Why do people hate Sonichu? -
- Thread starter Sonichu Fan
- Start date
it is a very good webcomic, in fact it is the best webcomic in the entire history of the universe including the webcomics of the ancients and the goa'uld @Sonichu Fan
Why I hate Sonichu?
1. Stolen Materials from other franchises.
2. Chris can't make an original script and takes things from movies and tv shows. Plus he draws his ideas as final draft.
3. No one cared about Pokemon anatomy and how they have sex.
4. Sonichu is racist and sexiest and homophobic.
5. He keeps making new characters and never uses them again.
6. He takes his real life stories and twists it around to look true and honest.
7. He spoils his own comics.
8. Horrible character development.
9. He thinks his art is at a professional level. he knows for a fact people draw better then he can.
10. Chris breaks the fourth wall.
11. Unexplained events
12. The tools he uses to draw are for children.
Trust me, I can go on forever.

I think it's an avant-garde masterpiece.

Those are mostly nitpicks. I can point to pretty much any manga and say the same thing.
I don't hate Sonichu. I don't like it, but I don't hate it.
It's gay and unrealistic.
The comic itself is actually a creepy sci-fi political thriller if you read it the right way. A mentally ill dictator enforcing his insane rule against a town he's held hostage with the aid of his weird mutant monster army? It's like Dr. Moreau mixed with 1984.

(Though I assume you meant "sexist" in which case I wholeheartedly agree.)
Simple- It's dumb as a bag of rocks. Every character's a direct ripoff from either a well-established franchise or Chrissy's own personal life (I am aware that other people do it too, but at least they try to hide it or just use it as a coy little reference. Keyword being try). The art's a mess that I doubt even a five-year old would call good enough. There's way too much exposition and not enough actual action. And on top of it all, the plot feels like there's too many storylines and details going on at the same time.
It's fun to pick out a lot of the individual moments though. That much I can admit to enjoying about the comic.

The comic is bad, but a reason the comic is bad because Chris injects his whole life into the comic. Many webcomics are bad because the artist is a horrible person. It's like how someone beautiful has an awful personality. It makes them uglier. Because we know so much of Chris through his comic, Sonichu is bad by association. Sonichu is an avatar of Chris' inner thoughts and that's why it's seen as bad. Not to mention that Sonichu is not even important in his own book, how it's supposed to be a harmless comic until Rage Against the Garbage. If Chris didn't fuck up his own story, it would be bad, but interesting.

I don't hate it, but I do think it fails even as a so-bad-it's-good type of comic. For once, it's filled with huge textwalls which I just can't bear to read. Second, the word balloons are arranged from right to left even though the comic is written in english, it's very disorienting to go read. If it weren't for the audiobooks I would have never been able to go through Sonichu.
EDIT: I mean just look at this comic page:
It's a fucking mess and the word balloons of the first panel are crammed into the last panel, figuring out everything that goes on there requires you to put some effort in deciphering the whole fucking thing.

I like it for all the wrong reasons.
I could never hate Sonichu. In fact I think it has a weird kind of charm.
Does that make it a good comic? Ha ha, no.

That's like saying that any given fanmake on fanfiction.net is Citizen Kane-worthy narrative. I don't hate Sonichu to some degree, but like the others have said, the comic has a multitude of problems like this:

Take a look at this page of the Archie Sonic Comic:to this image from Sonichu #8:and tell me which is better.
Clearly the second one. One of the few times Chris focuses on "Show, don't Tell." Compare the suspense of Chris's page to the wall of text above.
I was actually pondering making a "Positive Aspects of Sonichu" thread, but I guess this will do.
While Chris is so beholden to Pokémon and Sonic for the main characters of Sonichu, what little creativity there is goes to his villains. For example, Count Graduon.
Sure, his design was limited by ModNation Racers, but this version of Graduon actually looks original and like he could win in a fight against most of Sonichu's cast. Additionally, characters like MLW have motivation and drive, compare to the "Let's abandon our efforts to get Crystal out of the Dark Mirror to fuck around at a beach."
Lastly, Chris's characters seem more open minded than he does. Wild has no qualms about entering CWCville's version of an interracial relationship, on which Chris's thought are...well documented. And we all know how Magi-Chan's psychic surveillance has gone...

It probably doesn't help that it looks like it was drawn by a 3 year old.
