| '''''Sonichu''''' '''#13''', also known as '''''The Awakening of a CPU aka The Idea Guy Corruptions''''', is an issue which was heavily directed by the [[Idea Guys|Idea Guy trolls]]. It features a story on how one of their fictional troll characters, John Yamada, came to influence Chris, and covers an incoherent series of plot threads involving pieces of lore the Idea Guys had [[brainwashed]] into Chris. Due to the secretive nature of the saga, the comic pages were initially not uploaded by Chris; however, in-progress photos were leaked by various people whom Idea Guy Joshua Wise had shared them with. After the Idea Guys were ousted, Chris resumed production on the comic in May 2018, when he posted previews for a backup story about the [[polyamorous marriage]], acting against the advice of the [[Guard Dogs]], who attempted to distance Chris from the concepts introduced by the Idea Guys.

| This "comic" is unusual (even by [[Chris and writing#Exposition|Chris's standards]]) in consisting mostly of huge blocks of expository text, with illustrations running in narrow columns, or even relegated to the margins, on most pages. Indeed, the approach more closely resembles a {{w|light novel}} than a traditional webcomic. The writing-heavy style does not go well with the rough [[CWC-isms#H|hand-drawn]] lettering, or Chris's usual difficulties with run-on sentences and paragraphs, making the issue rather irritating to read through. This would mark a lasting shift in the ''Sonichu'' series; ''Sonichu #14'' would similarly be dominated by walls of text, with occasional imagery.

| Despite being aware that the Idea Guys turned out to be trolls, Chris still believes the abnormally bizarre events depicted in this comic are canon and happened, evidenced when he wrote the epilogue, ''The Awakening of a CPU'', several months later, and when Chris's [[Magi-chan]] sockpuppet on Twitter referred to the events as 'true fact', and gave the book a proper number after being ripped out of the ''Sonichu'' series in [[April 2019]] as the Idea Guy corruptions that they were.
