Note: This episode is considered unofficial, and is only fanmade.

The Violet-Light District is a fan-made web movie of The Crazy-Ass Group Show: The Series, Television Presentation created by Mitsuo Yamaguchi and his indie animation studio MAMA.

Plot
Rumors across San Los Angel-Antonioyorkytro speak of a mysterious district simply known as the "Violet-Light District." To verify the rumors, Ness, Prince Poo, Jeff Andonuts, and Paula Jones-Polestar all decide to investigate the new environment, with a little help from 7 of the Hated 8, who have left the group and broken up to fix their selves. Yet little do they know, this district would facilitate several hidden evils, from brainwashed denizens to a shady and cryptic magic entertainment business.

Why It Rocks
UNDER CONSTRUCTION
 * 1) The movie serves as a step up from many of the other episodes of The Crazy-Ass Group Show, as it's one of the few (albeit unofficial) episodes that focus on action, mystery, and suspense.
 * 2) *Because of this movie's overall tone, it can be seen as one of the show's darkest episodes (if it could be counted as an official episode), along with the "What Really Happened" version of The Adventure Truly Begins.
 * 3) The concept of a quartet investigating a shady and magical district is unique.
 * 4) Surprisingly enough, the main protagonists (Ness, Prince Poo, Jeff, and Paula) all get character development, especially when compared to their pre-Season 12 counterparts. The same goes for the Vibrants post-hypnosis.
 * 5) *This movie also sees Maka Albarn, Soul Evans, Death the Kid, Crona, Allen Walker, and the Elrics getting their original personalities back. Akko Kagari and Homura Akemi also make their unofficial debuts in this episode.
 * 6) **Heck, even Wrath (who was previously thought impossible to redeem) of all people appears as one of the denizens, and the writers of this episode have made him likable!
 * 7) The titular district itself is a breathtaking and otherworldly setting, taking inspiration from several major American cities (mainly Las Vegas) and the witches' labyrinths in Puella Magi Madoka Magica and Magia Record.
 * 8) *It also tends to blend magical elements with nostalgia for the 80s and 90s.
 * 9) Although still unlikable, Violastro here is portrayed as a genuine threat, brainwashing his patrons into becoming his servants (including the Vibrants) in many unique ways.
 * 10) MANY awesome scenes are present, such as:
 * 11) *The Earthbound Chosen Four exploring the Violet-Light District itself.
 * 12) *The many dance moves the brainwashed patrons perform in the episode, thanks to being marionetted by Violastro. It also helps that the dances themselves are reminiscent of 80s music videos, mainly Talking Heads' Once in a Lifetime and Earth, Wind & Fire's Let's Groove.
 * 13) *The Earthbound Chosen Four confronting Violastro, the creator of the eponymous realm.
 * 14) *The Vibrants reuniting with each other, whilst Odo and Claire Emmett make all kinds of heartwarming remarks.
 * 15) *Everyone getting freed from their brainwashed states in time for the battle with Violastro.
 * 16) These lines:
 * 17) *I'm not just a knight no more, for I am Allen the Knight. (Allen Walker)
 * 18) *What the heck is that on the ceiling? (Claire Emmett)
 * 19) *Oh, so I do have a purpose being in this group after all! (Crona)
 * 20) *Liz, let's go! Patty, you lead the way! (Death the Kid)
 * 21) *It's about time I got my original personality back! (Edward Elric)
 * 22) *Time to take some souls! (Soul "Eater" Evans)
 * 23) *With my right hand, I'll destroy any fucked-up illusion! (Touma Kamijou)
 * 24) *And finally; Come on, Vibrants! It's time to end this, right here, right now! (Cardinal)
 * 25) Not only are the hypnosis scenes (which were inspired by Studio SHAFT and Gekidan Inu Curry's work on "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" and the opening sequences for the later seasons of "Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei") terrifying and psychedelic, they're tragic at the same time, especially when the Vibrants get brainwashed.
 * 26) An awesome ending, where the Earthbound Chosen Four free the Vibrants and the residents from their hypnosis, culminating in all of them teaming up to defeat Violastro, along with Postal Dude, Maka, Soul, Death, Crona, Allen, the Elrics, Odo, Claire Emmett, Akko, and Homura, with unexpected appearances from both Touma Kamijou of Toaruverse fame and Yoh Asakura from Shaman King. And this time, the protagonists won!
 * 27) All in all, this episode can be seen as a huge improvement over the infamous Season 11 episode Rock 'n Roll McDonald's Mall Adventure!.

Bad Qualities
UNDER CONSTRUCTION
 * 1) Despite being portrayed as a menacing antagonist, Violastro has some unlikable moments and got flanderized into a perverted pimp. Not to mention, his motivations for brainwashing his patrons are questionable and unexplained.
 * 2) *Thanks to his perverted nature, there was a deleted scene where he sexually harasses a brainwashed Mercedes (MapleStory) and Sakuya Izayoi. Thankfully, this does not appear in the final cut. It's currently lost media, and will definitely be staying that way.
 * 3) *In fact, his implied motivation is to seduce anyone who steps into his realm (the Violet-Light District). However, this is still no clear explanation other than "I'm evil!"
 * 4) Some fans may see this as a Gravity Falls, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, and/or Magia Record ripoff.
 * 5) The hypnosis scenes, while amazing, can be very harmful to viewers who have epilepsy.
 * 6) Despite appearing in the episode, Alisa Bosconovitch only appeared once, which was in a scene of her texting Ness about her being lost in the gardens at Boca Raton, which is later forgotten about and never mentioned again, making her part in the episode pointless.

Trivia

 * The movie also went by The Vio-Light District and A Certain Violet District, the latter of which references A Certain Magical Index and A Certain Scientific Railgun.
 * The movie's premise was the winner of a writing contest among fans of the show. Previous writing contests have been held, but none were successful (besides the writing contest that led to the creation of The Adventure Truly Begins, albeit the result got subject to a severe case of executive meddling), as most of the time their ideas would be shot down by the producers (The Violet-Light District was also rejected by producers).
 * All of the rejected ideas were eventually animated and released in a YouTube compilation dubbed "The Lost Adventures of the Crazy-Ass Group" by fans of the series.
 * The hypnosis scenes seemed to be inspired by Rumor Tsuruno's backstory in the 2017 mobile game Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story: Magia Record and the Screenslaver's role in the 2018 Pixar film The Incredibles 2.
 * In fact, the writers of this movie stated that Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Magia Record, and Rock & Rule served as inspiration.
 * The creators of the movie stated that they enjoyed working on it.
