The Sonichu Audiobooks are a series of videos on the YouTube, juxtaposing scenes from the Sonichu comic book with audio of a dramatic reading. The Audiobooks serve a valuable function, disseminating the world of Sonichu to the visually impaired, the illiterate, and people who aren't retarded enough to actually read Sonichu for themselves. A major highlight of the Audiobooks is the annotations provided by Vivian Gee commenting on the project, offering scathing criticism of the comics themselves.

Chris has, in a another fit of self-righteous rage, started uploading "Official Videobooks" in respond to the success of the audiobooks, but, just as anything else that is produced by the man-child's hands, these OFFICIAL audiobooks are made of fail.

History

The original audio for the audiobooks were created by the old narrator, which Vivian then decided to turn into videos. These initial Audiobooks set the tone for the entire series, with the narrator playing it straight and allowing the absurdity of the story itself to come through without comment. The old narrator can be identified by his soft, deep, Tony Curtis-esque voice. He recorded readings of Episodes 1-9 and Sub-Episodes 1-2 (comprising most of Sonichu #0-2) before retiring being committed to a mental asylum as a result of going mad.

Responding to demand for moar audiobooks, Vivian opened auditions and selected Dethchemist77 as the new (and current) narrator. Deth continues the tradition of a straight reading, but in a tone more like that of the narration of an anime than a dramatic reading. Beginning around Sonichu 8, his narration has begun to show early signs of mental breakdown from having to describe whatever the hell Chris is trying to draw.

The extremely explicit sexual content in Sonichu 8 required the Audibooks team to censor Chris's work to avoid violating the YouTube terms of service. As a special bonus, the "Examining Sonichu & Rosechu" feature from this issue was presented by both Dethchemist77 (voicing Sonichu and narrating the essay on Sonichu's genitalia) and Shiny Marshtomp (ditto for Rosechu).
