'''''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.


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.

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.

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.
