I've read the comics multiple times and I still don't know what the actual plot is. It feels like reading an encrypted deep web blog.
 
I've read most of it as it was trickled out to the public overtime and I feel like people worry about me when they see the comics on my screen occasionally.
 
I can't decipher the autism, I read what looks the most comical and provocative.
 
I love reading Sonichu. I don't get why there are people who unironically complain that it isn't about Sonichu anymore, not that it ever really was in the first place. What makes Sonichu great isn't its cast of characters, it's what the stories themselves say about their author. Take the recent-ish Christmas episode, for example: obstensibly, it wasn't about Chris at all, but his bumbling sexuality comes through as what little plot there is hits a roadblock when Sonichu must fetch his daughter's panties. Likewise, the Aspergian rambling Kevin emits after losing to Cera in a video game just burns with classic Chris autism.

Sonichu is only truly interesting when it's revealing something about Chris, particularly when it's something he would rather hide.
 
I would read Sonichu 12 if it wasn't such a pain to look at one page at a time on sonichu.com and nobody seems to be willing to read it who I would like to listen too.
Hopefully the newcomers like Neon Cabaret are going to cover Sonichu past Issue 11.
 
Yes, multiple times. I skim through the Sonichu fighting shit and am intrigued in attempting to comprehend the wharrgarbl of Christian's brain. It's amazing that he wrote most of Sonichu before anyone knew who he was, yet he firmly believed he would get rich and famous from his horrible diary comic. And then he did get famous and decent cash due to it in the most convoluted way, proving that there are always people more retarded than you out there.
 
Since I've had free time, I figured instead of doing something worthwhile with my life, I'll read the autistic ramblings of a psychopath, gender confused, and morbidly obese manchild from the south.

And sadly, it didn't live up to the hype much.
 
I read the one about the Nazis and where Rosechu was a troon or something. It was very cringey and it had a weird storyline
 
I mean, yeah, I've read the whole thing.

Deciphering what in fuck's name is going on is a whole different story, though. The bad art I can always take, but the layout just blows my fucking mind every time I look at a page. So I never bothered to truly re-read it after the first blowthrough.
 
I haven't been able to bring myself to download the comix. I feel that the constantly posted frames on these here forums along with critique by Kiwis do a more then adequate job of getting the gist of the story across for me.
 
I've been reading through Taffy's annotations. I treat the comics like any other historical primary source I research, where it helps having someone fluent in the language (in this case autism) helping me piece stuff together. Problem is I usually only read it when I'm out and about on my phone and I've reached the point in the comics where Chris started drawing all that weird sex stuff. Don't wanna be sitting in a waiting room or coffee shop with easily visible marker-drawn animal porn on my phone screen.

Yeah, I have shamed myself into reading Sonichu now, but am absolutely reading Taffy's annotated version to translate some of the autism for me. Thanks for pointing it out, and thank Taffy for doing that too, it can't have been easy.
 
I read the early parts where they'd constantly break for the adventures of Chris chan. Those were the best parts, where we saw real events as told by his warped idealistic fantasy vision. Once those stopped I gave up. But if you haven't read Chris's fights in wal mart and his proclamation about "NEVER FOLLOWING ANY MAN'S RULES" then you're missing out

That drawing of Chris fellating the giant straw alone is worth it.
