'''''Sonichu'' #5''' is the sixth issue of the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' series.
In [[March 2026]], ''Hyperdimension Neptunia'' announced a new game set for August, which introduces new official characters. Among those are '''CPU Blue Heart''' Ciel of Lastation (a reference to [[Sony]]), with a backstory contradicting Chris's lore. An upset Chris took to spamming the Twitter feeds of official accounts promoting ''Neptunia'' as well as accounts of fans approving of Ciel's design. In his tweets, Chris angrily claimed himself the real Blue Heart and attempted to convince ''Neptunia'' to change Ciel's title.


By this point in his life [[Chris]] was obsessed with [[Megan]], and it's painfully obvious in this issue. For one thing, he's suddenly using ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' cards all the damn time. Chris brushes premises like his [[Love Quest]] and the Chris/[[Wes]]/[[Sarah Hammer]] triangle under the rug so that he can introduce [[Sailor Megtune]] and the storyline that she is clearly meant to be Chris's sweetheart but is mysteriously uncomfortable with his affections. Reading Megan's dialogue in this issue suggests he has no earthly idea why she would refuse his advances, and Chris doesn't even invent a fictional explanation for the sake of drama.
According to Chris, CPU Blue Heart (also known as Scarlett Celestia and later Scarlet LaRose) is the [[Hyperdimension Neptunia|Console Patron Unit]] Goddess of the Nations of [[CWCville]] and Comma, and of the [[Commodore|Commodore Consoles]]. Conceived by Chris after being force-fed ''Hyperdimension Neptunia'' lore by the [[Idea Guys]], Scarlett serves as one of his escapist alter egos, providing a [[coping|coping mechanism]] and enabling his [[messiah complex]]. Through this alter ego, Chris has also emerged as the figurehead of the [[Dimensional Merge]], with his own [[Enablers|group of "worshippers"]].


Episode 13 introduces the first major multi-issue story arc, in which [[Mary Lee Walsh]] finally sets her sights higher than assaulting a single moron and instead invades his entire town, [[CWCville]], as well imprisoning [[Crystal Weston Chandler (sister)|his sister]] in a dark mirror. The elements introduced here would continue to play out until Walsh's final defeat in [[Episode 21]].

This issue also abandons any pretense of featuring [[Sonichu (character)|Sonichu]] in any meaningful role. In commentary on the ''[[Sonichu 5 Official Videobook|Sonichu 5 Videobook]]'', Chris explains that his [[Barbara|mom]] has forbidden him from writing any more [[Sub-Episodes]] about his real life, so he does the only logical thing: he makes his life the ''main'' Episode. Whereas issues [[Sonichu 2|''Sonichu'' #2]] and [[Sonichu 3|''Sonichu'' #3]] set Sonichu aside to introduce new characters, and [[Sonichu 4|''Sonichu'' #4]] was a special focusing on Chris, ''Sonichu'' #5 is simply a blatant and unjustified spotlight on Chris, with the titular character of the franchise taking a back seat to him, Megan, and even a [[Patti-Chan|dead dog]].

In March 2026, Hyperdimension Neptunia announced a new game set for August, which introduces new official characters. Among those are CPU Blue Heart Ciel of Lastation (a reference to Sony), with a backstory contradicting Chris's lore. An upset Chris took to spamming the Twitter feeds of official accounts promoting Neptunia as well as accounts of fans approving of Ciel's design. In his tweets, Chris angrily claimed himself the real Blue Heart and attempted to convince Neptunia to change Ciel's title.

According to Chris, CPU Blue Heart (also known as Scarlett Celestia and later Scarlet LaRose) is the Console Patron Unit Goddess of the Nations of CWCville and Comma, and of the Commodore Consoles. Conceived by Chris after being force-fed Hyperdimension Neptunia lore by the Idea Guys, Scarlett serves as one of his escapist alter egos, providing a coping mechanism and enabling his messiah complex. Through this alter ego, Chris has also emerged as the figurehead of the Dimensional Merge, with his own group of "worshippers".
