Continuity in the Sonichu comics

Among many things, the continuity in the Sonichu series is entirely full of fail. The following is a list of continuity errors and retcons in the series:

Every Sonichu comic ever

Character disappearances

Because the Sonichu comics lack a clear overall plotline, essentially consisting of whatever pops into Chris's autistic head, many characters disappear from the strip without explanation. Chris presumably forgets about them, and only gives them cameos in later issues after the fanbase ask what happened to them.

  • After Sonichu 1, Kel (Rosechu's original trainer) inexplicably disappeared from the comics. Chris later retconned in the CWCipedia that she "continued her Pok'emon Master Journey." She was mentioned in Sonichu 9, with minor details that so far had only appeared in the CWCipedia being referenced. She returned in Sonichu 10, killing Sean.
  • Sonic does not appear after episode 6. He will supposedly appear again in Sonichu 11, but Chris likely won't make it that far.
  • Doctor Robotnik and Giovanni were set up initially as the main villains, but Robotnik vanishes after Sonichu 1 and Giovanni after Sonichu 3. They briefly reappear in Sonichu 10.
  • Metal Sonichu went to the fucking moon in episode 6, and is never seen nor heard from again. As with Sonic, Chris claims that Metal will return in Sonichu 11 or 12.
  • Crystal Weston Chandler was trapped in the Dark Mirror Hole during Sonichu 5, and whilst she was mentioned afterward in a few issues, was mostly forgotten by Sonichu 8 and not even mentioned in Sonichu 9. However, Crystal was finally saved in Sonichu 10 by Collosal Chris-Chan, who simply enters the mirror and picks her up with very little drama or fanfare. It's possible that Chris had entirely forgotten about this particular plot thread, but was reminded of it after several letters complaining about discontinuity in the Mailbag.

Character appearances

  • BILLY MAYS suddenly appeared in Sonichu 9 (page 32) with Chris proclaiming that he has been his bodyguard and body double (and never mayor) all this time. However, he never gives an explanation where he was during the numerous times when Chris was getting the shit beaten out of him by Jerkops.

Chronology

  • Sonichu 0 says that Sonichu is 16 years old and Rosechu is 15, which would be true in 2004 when the comic was drawn but not in 1998, when Chris later declared the story took place.
  • It is not certain when Rosechu and Sonichu left Kel and moved into 14 Brunchville Lane: Chris has given the date as November 1998 and 8 June 2000.
  • Chris claimed that he became Mayor of CWCville in July 2000, but this date is after the events of Sonichu 1, in which he was referred to as Mayor, and also occurs after he granted Rosechu and Sonichu a house using his mayoral powers.
  • Chris has claimed that Episodes 13 and 14 occur on 29 April 2006, but date is before Patti-Chan went to CWCville on 27 June in Episode 12.5.
  • Bionic puts Reldnahc into a coma on 11 October 2007, and he doesn't wake up until 20 December. But he is somehow present at Slaweel Ryam's meeting on 2 November.
  • In Sonichu 10, Crystal says she'll get President Obama to remove the Asperpedia, although this event takes place during August 2008, three months before Obama was even elected.
  • In that same issue, Chris "cures" the world of homosexuality and asexuality. Near the end of the issue, he goes about making homosexuality legal in CWCville, but not same-sex marriage. Also much earlier, the vaccine to cure homosexuality is developed thanks to him donating his blood in the future, in effect creating a time paradox.
  • Chris has claimed that all of the Electric Hedgehog Pokémon except for Sonichu, Rosechu and Blake came from eggs sent back in time to 2 February 1989, but he's also established that Darkbind, Zelina, Jamsta, Lolisa, Simonla, and Silvana are too old to have been hatched on this date. BlazeBob, Chloe and Zapina are hatched much later for reasons unaccounted for.
