Why We Don't Want To Join This Cult
UNDER CONSTRUCTION
 * 1) It's mainly a Miku Hatsune torture episode, as she's objectified by Blue Executive.
 * 2) Not only is this a torture episode for the titular character, but it also goes for many of the cast who are unfortunately forced to join Blue Executive's cult, most notably Sonic, Azura (Vibrant Venture), Gumball, Nicole Watterson, Felicia (Darkstalkers), Bluey Heeler, ENA, Lapis Lazuli (Steven Universe), KAITO, Bubble (BFDI), and Sayaka Miki.
 * 3) Blue Executive is very unlikable in this episode, as his materialism and obsession over Miku have been cranked up to eleven! In fact, his sole purpose in creating the cult was just for financial gain. It doesn't help that it was all was funded by the Investors (Super Doomspire).
 * 4) *Speaking of the Investors, because of all of the events that have happened in this episode, they can count as the true main antagonists.
 * 5) This episode marks the introduction of Aquamarine (Steven Universe), Vriska Serket, Valentine (Skullgirls), Seiran (Touhou), Shion Yorigami, Ganyu (Genshin Impact), and NiCO (Dead or Alive), who are all unlikeable.
 * 6) Too many mean-spirited (and sometimes disturbing) moments, such as:
 * 7) *Blue Executive sexually harassing and objectifying Miku, as well as making fun of Sayaka Miki and Yachiyo Nanami's burdens.
 * 8) *Aquamarine and Valentine torturing random people into joining the cult.
 * 9) *Shion Yorigami and Vriska Serket robbing Azura, Sonic, Gumball, and more people.
 * 10) *Seiran trying to "purify" Felicia (Darkstalkers) and Nicole Watterson by shooting their legs.
 * 11) *NiCO beating up Bluey Heeler and then splashing hot sauce onto her butt, over a happy meal.
 * 12) *Ganyu trying to pop Bubble if she doesn't join the cult.
 * 13) *The infamous disturbing scene where the Investors try to crucify Miku. Thankfully, the other characters intervened, leading to Blue Executive getting a good beating.
 * 14) Too many filler scenes, such as:
 * 15) *Ness doing a livestream of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on Twitch while being drunk on vodka.
 * 16) *Luminous (MapleStory) yelling the hard R at Prince Poo in an IKEA.
 * 17) *Postal Dude filling stocks in his Weapon Parlor.
 * 18) *Randy Marsh & Alastor torching gophers.
 * 19) *The Vibrants trying to search for Azura, although this is justified.
 * 20) *Lili De Rochefort trying new Snapchat filters.
 * 21) *Meryl Hinton thrusting powdered sugar in front of Pit (Kid Icarus).
 * 22) *Emily Taylor whipping cows to death.
 * 23) *Violastro, Dr. Eggman, and Bowser ordering a pizza.
 * 24) *Fan (Inanimate Insanity) having a brawl with Alisa Bosconovitch at Waffle House.
