Zapina is a fourteen-year-old Rosechu who longs to strip for women's rights. She's part-Insect... somehow, meaning she has wings and her ass glows. Where did she come from? How and why is she so much younger than all the other Electric Hedgehog Pokémon? Nobody knows, and fortunately, nobody gives a damn.
Appearance
Surprisingly, Zapina does not appear to be ripped-off wholesale from any other existing character. She does have the yellow color and ears of Pikachu, as well as the eye style of a Sonic character, but the fact that she's part-insect is all original. Yes, you read that right: for once, Chris has "created" something that is only somewhat derivative.
Despite existing solely as a means for Chris to somehow disprove criticisms on pedophilia, she is easily the skankiest-dressed Rosechu in the series; she sports daisy-dukes and a low-cut, midriff-baring tube top, which no responsible parent would let even a high-schooler near, and appears to be wearing makeup at points.
Appearances
Sonichu #8
At the gals' protest strip for women's rights, Zapina begs the fascist Rosechu to allow her to get naked for the camera. Sensibly, Rosechu won't allow her to be present (citing "dumb laws"), until Lolisa Rosechu promises to "look after" her. She helps by using her powers to provide light for their horrifying strip protest.
Sonichu #9
In the dating education episode, we see Simonla Rosechu outside CWCville U talking to Zapina. Zapina refers to Simonla as "her best friend" which is creepy enough, before Simonla instructs her to get a "16 year old boy".
In the CWC-Defense we see that she is not only an aspiring erotic model, but also a full-fledged child soldier. During the attack on CWCville by the Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens, Zapina engages in mortal combat with a group of Jerkops despite her young age [1].
Sonichu #10
While not making any appearances, Zapina is mentioned as having become Sandy Rosechu's babysitter and mentor.[2] This presumably means that Sandy will be fighting for women's rights from the tender age of one year.
Pedoforkism
The irony with Zapina is that she was invented to quench rumours that Chris was a pedophile and yet is one of the most visually-sexualized characters in the comic, though this may have been done unconsciously. Many have interpreted the "dumb laws" comment as an implication that Rosechu would like to sexually exploit Zapina, but cannot because of the legality. To be fair to Chris for a second, it is certainly clear that Rosechu is actually referring to child labor laws (Zapina offered her services as a spotlight for the fashion shoot). However there is still something very sketchy about the fact that the grown women are perfectly okay with exposing themselves in front of a minor, which is most certainly illegal.
