'''Japanophilia''' is the appreciation and love of Japanese culture, people, history and media. Since his youth, Chris has been fond of Japanese media and culture. [[Sonic]], [[Pokemon]], [[Playstation]] and [[anime]] are all Japanese creations that Chris enjoys. While Japanophilia is a well-established concept, existing in western society since the latter half of the 19th century with the Opening of Japan and becoming amplified in scope and popularity since the 1960's, Chris's love for Japan is [[Autism|on a whole different level]].

Chris has been known to prefer Japanese media over American alternatives; [[PS3]] over the [[HEXBox]], [[Sonic]] over [[The Adventures of The American Rabbit]] (though one can't blame Chris for leaving that behind).

Chris, begging for money, while standing in front of more than a thousand dollars' worth of Lego sets and toys.

The Financhu Crisis is a term coined by users from Kiwi Farms to describe the steep decline in the Chandler family's financial management beginning in early 2016. Signs of the Chandlers' worsening finances were made apparent by the increasing amounts of begging videos and donation requests on YouTube and Facebook.

In June 2017, Chris began to take his Patreon account more seriously and recommenced drawing Sonichu comic pages. He has gotten several hundred dollars per month for his efforts, and payments continued until 2 August 2021, when his Patreon account was shut down. As a result, begging had temporarily subsided.
