Magi-Chan (also known as Derek) is a Sonichu and a member of the Chaotic Combo. He's the serious know-it-all and the only character not solely motivated by finding a sweetheart. He's also one of the major sources of deus ex machina, and thus far the character most often depicted as just a floating head providing walls of expository dialogue. He is purple, but has been depicted as crimson in color.
Magi-Chan is was probably the only sympathetic character in the whole series, due to his sarcastic and often serious mood unintentionally making him seem intolerant of Sonichu and Chris's stupid antics, as well as his character's unintentional homosexual undertones. He also remains girlfriend-free the longest of all the characters, and implies that he is uninterested in romance due to having "too much gray matter" when Sonichu obnoxiously boasts about fucking his girlfriend that night. Even when Magi-Chan does express interest in a woman, it's a woman with a penis - Silvana Rosechu.
Although he is clearly omnipotent and omniscient, he refuses to use his powers for any reason other than to exposit plot points and teleport characters to where they need to be in order to do a job he could, himself, do in a matter of moments. However, some readers find this to be his most redeeming characteristic, as he clearly only puts in the bare minimum of effort to satisfy Chris's retarded whims.
According to Chris, "Magi-Chan" is intended to be a lame pun on "magician".[2]
Overview
Magi-Chan was, in earlier comics, perhaps the most useless in Chris's canon of useless characters, rivaled only by Lolisa Rosechu. Despite being essentially omnipotent, he does little more than enable everybody else to do something by filling them in on all the exposition and teleporting them where they need to go.
However, Magi-Chan later came in handy as a sort of "right-hand man" to Chris, particularly in his fight against homosexuality. Chris has stated that Magi-Chan monitors all sexual activity in the city using his psychic powers, and later has Magi-Chan travel to the future in order to obtain a bulk batch of the cure for homosexuality - Chris's blood. Magi-Chan would effectively contaminate the water supply of CWCville with Chris's blood in order to cleanse the world of homos.
Ironically, Magi-chan's Omnipotence and Omniscience is thanks to Chris' repeated use of Magi-chan's psychic powers as a crutch for plot convenience and exposition. In fact, it can be argued that Magi-chan is the REAL person in charge of CWCville and may rival, if not dwarf, the powers of Chris himself. Magi-chan has demonstrated the ability to time travel under his own power, change the genetic and physical make up of people's bodies to change their genders, has his own actual team of Level 100 Psychic Pokemon (despite being a Pokemon himself), along with essentially serving as the town's head of law enforcement, and is never questioned when issuing a command. While Chris is typically fawned over and adored, Magi-chan is obeyed without question.
His design is a combination of three characters:
Major comic appearances
Sonichu Babies
Magi-Chan's egg lands in a secluded cave in the cliffs surrounding CWCville. Upon hatching, he is spoken to via telepathy by Mewtwo, who trains Magi-Chan Sonee to use his psychic abilities until he evolves after extreme meditation training.
When Hedgehogs Meet
Magi-Chan stands over CWCville, his all-knowing mind seeing the impending fight against Blake. He sighs, heads on over to the other Chaotic Combo members and seems to set himself up as their leader within moments. Then they all beat up Blake to the point that major cranial damage threatens to kill him.
Smashed Hearts & Entrapment
Magi-Chan and the other Chaotic Combo members are teleported into action by Chris.
Evil is Afoot
While everyone is pretending to worry about Crystal, Chris and Magi-Chan try to figure out how to free her.
Reldnahc Notsew Naitsirhc attacks and Chris orders Magi-Chan and Sonichu to investigate with him. Magi-Chan does practically nothing from there.
Time for a Ball & Time Hogs
For no reason, Magi-Chan, along with Chris and Sonichu, begin the hunt for the Sonichu Balls at the Manchester High School Gymnasium. Magi-Chan gives some made-up theory about how the Sonichu Balls can be scattered throughout time. He then magically realizes that Chris came in contact with one ball back in 1996 and the three go back in time to retrieve it. On the way back Chris gets lost in the time void and Magi-Chan explains that he will return eventually, instead of actually trying to help him.
Episode 18 Prologue
Magi-Chan, along with the rest of the Chaotic Combo, celebrates their 19th birthdays on 2 February 2008.
Spring Break
Magi-Chan explains to Bubbles that he has found a Sonichu Ball via his psychic link and orders her to go get it. He also tries to warn her of Silvana's trap, but Bubbles doesn't believe him. Magi-chan later teleports Bubbles to Blake.
CWC-Defense
Magi-Chan pleads with Silvana to stop working with Count Graduon and insists that he can restore her "birth gender."
After his exchange with Silvana, Magi-Chan disappears from Episode 20 almost entirely. He plays no significant role in the plot until the epilogue, where he shows up to provide a handy deus ex machina by randomly pulling Chris out of the Time Void.
Christian Chandler in Director Amenities
Magi-Chan appears in the beginning of the story, having yanked Chris from the Time Void. The newly freed Chris tasks him with gathering the homosexual cure and bringing it to the present, which he does.
When Chris tries to apologize for his actions involving Alec Benson Leary, Magi-Chan stops Evan and Simonchu from trying to kill Simonla, but fails to stop Alec's attempt. He's obviously guilt ridden when Wild's motherless bastard child Sandy is born, telling the child point blank that it was Evan who killed her. He is present at the Asperchu Four's trial, planting evidence to convict them. He is last seen at Alec's execution, electrocuting him.
A Sonichu Christmas
Magi-Chan appears to reassure his niece Christine about the whole ordeal that went on with her and Kevin the Jew. Following that, he appears with Silvana to talk about how much they love each other.
He also appears at the end of the story with Silvana, thinking to himself, "Life is good".
To Be or Naught a Tomgirl...
Magi-Chan helps his nephew Robbie realize that he has a female soul, by explaining that he has to find himself. This helps pave the way toward Robbie's transition into becoming a female.
Prideful
Although his primary role in this story is provide tons of exposition, he does help evacuate the pride parade in anticipation of a group of Jerkops led by Reldnahc.
Part 2: The Clip Show: Catching up
Magi-Chan appears at Sonichu's and Rosechu's wedding.
Outside of the comics
Magi-Chan is one of the more popular characters with the trolls, due to his arguably homosexual tendencies. As such, he is mentioned in Chris's Mailbags quite frequently. This caused a few new facts about the character to surface, notably that he is aware of any sex act that happens to occur within CWCville city limit and will inform Chris if it doesn't fit his puritanical ideals.
