I'm going to just go through the highlights of Mailbags 3 through 7, and then I'm going to wrap up Sonichu 9.
Also, something I forgot to mention. Chris might have initially confused Aspergers Syndrome with Alzheimers Disease.
Also, I'm taking requests for the color of Chris's responses. I'm going to stick with brown if nobody objects.

4. my friends older brother dropped out of school at 16 and sat around for a few years and got rejected from art school becos they feel he was not good enough. hes a pretty good painter tho... hes been thinking of getting into politics. his ideas are kinda extreme but hes good at giving speeches and stuff. do you have any advice for him, as mayor of cwcville?
WHO ELSE owns the same class ring with the same finger size, engravings and such? That is a pillow I bought from a Spencers. It's okay where it is, but yeah, if changable, Sweet 16; another good reason it would be a "Sweet" age. My advice is to be honest, make promises that HE Knows that he CAN and WOULD keep, and do his best in the campaign.

My name is Nick and I've been an avid reader of Sonichu for years now. Today I think I have found the courage to admit something to you and the world. I have a crush on Rosechu!
Having said that, I would like you to know that it SHATTERED MY HEART to see that she was married. I know, I know, Rosechu is a comic book character but now I have trouble imagining my swooping in to save her! Is there a chance that Sonichu and Rosechu will get a divorce? Is divorce legal in Cwcville?
Wow, "coming out of left-field there." The will never get a divorce.
The owner of the CWCvilleLibrary account submitted this abomination:
Chris said that he liked it and mentioned that he might do a story with zombies. He never got around to it, but Chris still had the picture in March 2010.

Hey Chris, how are you? Just wanted to send you this message to say how great the comics are so far. It's great that your adding some new pages, we were waiting for so long! But the wait was worth it, and I see that the comics are as good as ever. Just wanted to ask, what happened to the sub-episodes? Those were the best part of the comic. Anyway, I'll write some more later, and send some fan art.
I stopped drawing those because I made a promise to my mother that I would, but I forget why she was offended by them.

Hello Mr. Chandler, I am a 20-years-young boy from Canada and I love Sonichu and Rosechu TO THE EXTREME LOL. When I grow up, I want to be a successful comic artist just like you! My mother says she will kick me out of our house if I don't find a job by the end of the year, but finding a job is too stressful, and I want to practice my drawing! She says I'm lazy and sometimes beats me. What should I do?
Your mother is caring about you, granted it is of forceful nature. Likely, she will not kick you out, but it wouldn't hurt to fill out job applications online.

My name is Richard Paul Ferguson, and I have a serious problem. I am a homo. I have tried to STAY STRAIGHT, but all my attempts have failed. I am considering changing my name to Stacy Ann Ferguson and getting a sex change. I have been a fan of yours for years and don't know who else to ask, so what do you you think I should do, Chris?
Although the gender change would be my "rather-to-do" over becoming a homo, but in your case,I would suggest looking at women more, fantasize yourself with their breasts and pussys; do this continuously. Hypnotize yourself; every time you have a homo thought, you will feel like you are being shocked by lightning and that it really hurts. And every time you fantasize women, breasts and pussy, you will feel calm, relaxed and good. But DO NOT hurt yourself physically for real; that would be really bad. In other words, you would be reprogramming your brain.

Before I found out about Sonichu, I was living in my parent's basement at age 24 and spending all the disability cheddar I got for my bipolar disorder on crystal meth. I'd spend up to 18 hours a day just playing Hentai games and chain smoking. But after learning about Sonichu and how you live, I got off the drugs and (against all odds) found a job as a paralegal. I'm currently sharing an apartment with my wonderful new girlfriend Courtney and attending law school, and have plans to work my way up to the level of assistant district attorney.
Thank you, Chris-chan!
Congratulations; may God and Jesus continue to bless you in your success

Dear Mr. Chandler,
If you could change the law, just once, what would you change?
I would remove the "Law" of the "Friend Zone", because I feel that it is just wrong to not even attempt to have anything beyond friendship, especially if the man and the woman are both comfortable with each other and are close.
Steve Steve wrote:
Hey Christian! I really like Sonichu, but there's one thing about it that kinda bugs me - the fact that there's no backgrounds on some of the pages. How is anybody supposed to know what's going on if the characters are just sort of standing in a white void all the time?
I give the background reference just before that piece of the story, so it should be obvious where they are; just go back a page or two.

5. whether theyre married or not, it is wrong for sonichu and rosechu to be having sex in the comics (or in any picture or photograph). the bible is very clear that intercourse is meant to be between a man and a woman, not a man, a woman, and an entire audience of readers, especially when those readers are potentially underage. ive even seen pictures of them where rosechu was a man and sonichu was a man and it is definitely against the bible for man and man to lay together. when will you remove these pornographies from the face of the internet? pornography is a SIN. god sends people to hell for it. your christian readership deserves nothing less than sonichu and rosechu to have a perfect spotlessly clean presence on the internet, and yet theyre being sullied by pictures drawn by you in your style of them engaging in sex.
6. the scene where rosechu press her bikini area against the mans face in the 4cent garbage building comic was disgusting, revolting, and a complete mockery to all women everywhere. i almost stopped reading the comic after that issue. when will you correct the ending to reflect a more christian, pro-female rights message?
Rosechu was wearing a strap-on in that drawing, of which I was blackmailed into doing a few months ago, and HOW do YOU think you were created to be born; Your Mom and Dad Had Sex to create you. Sex, regardless of positions or accessories, between man and woman is okay and natural. Rosechu temporarily turned into a wild beast, and she would not have been thinking when she did that.

Cwcville at times seems like a communist dictatorship. There doesn't seem to be much free enterprise in the town, and you might want to think about showing some of the characters setting up their own business and becoming entrepreneurs. As a businessman yourself, I am sure you can appreciate wanting to teach the kids about the American dream.
The next issue is that there does not seem to be any functioning democracy in Cwcville or any elected representatives of the people. Only one benevolent Mayor, who although may have good intentions, rules in absolution and runs in elections seemingly unopposed. Maybe it would be good if Cwcville had a House of Representatives, or just more candidates in the election?
On the contrary, all rights in Cwcville are Free; the citizens within it have every right just like in these United States. I do not care much that you refer to me as "benevolent"; it sounds derogatory. Plus we do have a House of Representatives; they meet in the Cwcville Trade Center Building and relay all decisions and discussions to my office at the Mall, where I offer my input, and accept theirs, and sign the documents to agree or disagree accordingly. Free Enterprise and all that is encouraged highly. And F.Y.I., I am a Moderate; in the MIDDLE between Democrats and Republicans. Have a good day.

I really hope to have an autistic child one day, as smart and talented as you or David Tammet. If it is a boy, I will name him Christian, and if it is a girl, I will name her Crystal.
I do not know much about autism though. Will I increase my chances of having an autistic child if I make my wife drink alcohol while she is pregnant, or punch her in her pregnant belly? Or when the baby is born, should I beat it or terrorize it to make it autistic? My wife is willing to do anything to have an autistic baby, and she already gave me permission to punch her if it means our child will be autistic. I just hope it's not a homo like David Tammet!
I appreciate your wanting to name your child after me, but FOR GOD's Sake, rasing a child with Autism is a LOT OF HARD WORK, a LOT harder than raising a Normal Child. Although, you may look up Autism on Wikipedia to see the mental problems of the child to further prove the point. Also, For God's Sake, NEVER EVER let your wife drink, smoke or be physically abused or hurt while she is pregnant. IF ANYTHING, such actions CAN PROVOKE homosexuality in the child.
GOD! W.T.F. is going on in that head of yours?!
I'm sorry for that outburst, but you needed the wake-up call in my humble opinion. May god bless you with a straight, normal, intelligent child.

What is the mysterious brown puddle that appears when Magi-Chan travels back in time in Sonichu 7? Is it fecal incontinence? Does Magi-Chan use diapers or liners?
W.T.F. are you talking about? That is his SHADOW.

I never cared for the HEXBox, and frankly it LACKS heavily in comparison to the Wii and PS3, PLUS YOU HAVE TO PAY THEIR FEES TO EVEN GO ONLINE OR DOWNLOAD DEMOS WITH IT. The Wii and Playstation Networks are FREE, ONLY costing you if you BUY the Downloadable Games. When Microsoft FINALLY get that costly detail LONG-GONE, I MAY reconsider. But in the meantime, I rest my case.
I know that the PS3 has something identical to what Chris is talking about. I think it's optional and about the same price as the XBL fee, and I know that Chris pays for it.

why does everybody hate you so much? why are you hated by everyone, ha? i don't get it. what do you think? it's interesting to me because in my country if someone has a severe case of autism we take care of him and put him in a special place for people who are retarded. would you like to go to a special place for autistics and retards?

you are very talented for a retarded person!!! good for you!!! do you go to the bathroom all by yourself? i bet you do!!! talented!!!
Tehy're just jealous that they did not think of Sonichu first, or that I am more Artistically Talented than they are. I DO NOT CARE to go to such "Special Places", especially if they have physically deformed individuals who can not say any legible words beyond "Uhhhhh..."; they are as creepy as zombies.

I'd like to ask you a question about this: how can you honestly doubt, with absolute surety, the statements of medical professionals? I noticed that at least one poster here on the mailbag has stated that he is in medical school. Have you ever attended medical school, Mr. Chandler? No, you have not. You have no understanding of psychology whatsoever, so how can you be so certain that Asperger's is "TOTALLY DIFFERENT" from autism?
Well, I have read your whole message, and you have the right to your own opinion, as did the other people who asked about the subject. I state my opinion on the subject as it is my right as well to my own opinion. Aspergers is MORE classified to those who come down with it LATER in life during their ADULT years. Autism happens from nearly the start. With that being a MAJOR difference between the two among other differences, I again rest my case.
The same 14 year old Christian girl from before wrote:
First, I am disappointed that you "rejected" my email. It wasn't offensive or mislabeling. It was honest content from my true heart and, like you said, you should be a man and take criticism. My criticism of your comic is that it goes against God and the Bible, and it does in the instances I've mentioned.
(Blah blah it was sinful for the white recolor to not have a male parent figure)
Third, sex is meant to be done for procreation only. Anything else is sin, plain and simple. Sex done in public is also a sin. Read the Bible. It is very specific that sex is meant to be done between one man and one woman, and that's it. Not an audience, and not "for fun." God hates hanky-panky, and Hell is full of perverts who enjoy looking at pornographic material.
Fourth, "Rosechu became a wild beast" is no excuse. In fact, it's even worse that you would insinuate that women can't control their emotions and just fly off the hinges like they animals and not even human. Is that what you think of women? That they're animals and not people? You're awful.
(this was followed by a list of all the non-Christian things Chris put in the comic)
In response to your first paragraph, obviously you have not opened your mind to all things in life, and your religion is a closed-minded one.
(The congregation had male members so those count as father figures)
Third, Sex Is Natural; regardless of it being for procreation or for fun, and I agree you that sex should ONLY be truly enjoyed between Man and Woman; not between homos.
Fourth, I have had MY OWN fly-off emotional moments too on rare occasions; you are no different I'm sure. You certainly let yourself go in typing your message.
I am a Methodist; I pray to God and Jesus every day; I read my Bible; I volunteer myself for good deeds and such often. Last Sunday, I was asked to read a verse and light the First Advent Candle; that was definitely a most honorable volunteer job, and I did very well in citing the verse with gusto and feeling.
I'll pray for you to open your mind as well. Peace.

I was wondering what your definition of Asperger's syndrome is? If you are so adamant in claiming that Asperger's is nothing like High Functioning Autism, perhaps you could enlighten us as to the differences? I have a feeling you are just mistaken as to the definition of Asperger's, as an intelligent individual like yourself would certainly not be naive and stubborn and refuse to accept the truth.
Those with Aspergers are Retarded Linguisticly and Cognitively, PLUS they are most certainly MORE CLUMSY than we Autistics.
**A NOTE: I am NOT calling people with Aspergers Retared; ONLY their skills in speech and mental capabilities are not as quick as those with Autism.**
So put that in your pipe and smoke it

Salaam. I am grateful to be emailing the Sonichu creator himself.
I live in islamic republic of Iran in the middle east. I recently found your comic Sonichu and enjoy it very much. I have been translating Sonichu to Arabic for many people to enjoy. However, I have big problem. My parents do not approve of your comic and have declared it haraam. They think it is sacrilegious and defies the supreme will of Allah.
They found the pages on my computer. They saw comic where characters engage in fornication, sex before marriage, which is forbidden in Islam. They also think that Sonichu promote many thing that are not "halal."
I do not know what to do. My parents have threaten to disown me and I fear for even worse, I fear for my life. Please tell me what to do. Everyone is against me but I am not an infidel, I only wish to spread word of Sonichu to the middle eastern world.
My comics promote free will and most democratic, if not moderate, type of politics. Don't worry about your parents; they only care about your safety and well-being. They will certainly not disown you. If it makes you pop flyin', then continue your spread of my work and smile while doing so.
After Mailbag 8, Chris created the Autism Mailbag, which was like the Rejected Mailbag but for letters that had things to do with Autism. After Mailbag 10, Chris begged his Sysop to filter out any emails that mentioned homosexuality or Aspergers. He was ignored.
Now, at some prior to this, somebody wrote a oneshot fanfic entitled "Sonichu is Dead". The plot is as follows:
Sonichu hates his life, so he kills himself by way of a chainsaw to the face. Rosechu tries to call 911, but Chris spent replaced all the ambulances with Transformers which aren't actually good for that job and Sonichu dies. A few weeks later, Rosechu has snapped because Chris won't stop hitting on her. She overdoses on painkillers and drowns her children in the bathtub. She then goes to the mall with an assault rifle and a can of gasoline. She fatally wounds Chris before running out of ammo, at which point she douses Chris and herself in gasoline and lights a match. The ensuing fire consumes the town, and the survivors mourn nothing, as anywhere is better than CWCville.
Sean August Whatley, an artist from /cwc/, did a comic adaptation of the fanfic. He added zombies and killed significantly more characters. He then did a few pages of "Sonichu is Gay", which was exactly what it sounded like. Both of those comics, as well as the original Sonichu is Dead fanfic, have been lost to time. I'm mentioning this because Sonichu fanfiction would become relevant soon, and Sean was somewhat involved in it.
