    I personally enjoy the theory that MEGALOVANIA is the human/player's theme.
    1. It plays after Sans attacks first in genocide, and whenever the player attacks first, the respective monster's theme plays. If Sans attacked first, wouldn't the human/player have the theme? 2. MEGALOVANIA is a play on the word megalomania or megalomaniac, something used to describe someone obsessed with power, which perfectly describes the player in Undertale's genocide route! 3. MEGALOVANIA has no apparent leitmotif connections to any other song in Undertale (maybe Bring it in, guys, but that's a stretch). Leitmotifs are used to convey connection to the greater underground and Sans doesn't have it in his boss theme? Why wouldn't he at least have Papyrus's theme in his boss theme since he cares for him so much? It would makw much more sense for bo leitmotif connection to be in the player's theme because, as Sans describes, the higher LV one has, the easier it is to distance yourself. And finally 4. Sans has a battle theme, the unused song, Song That Might Play When You Fight Sans, and heck, Toby had to intricately change MEGALOVANIA when adding it to SSBU alongside Sans's mii costume. Why? Because he needed to connect it to Sans, as it wasn't his theme in the first place.
    That's all I got, great video!

      The reason why MEGALOVANIA has no leitmotifs was because the song was made before Toby started working on undertale and future official remixes of the song like the smash Bros remix has leitmotifs

    Theory: The reason Sanses clothes randomly change in official art (Such as his footwear switching between white slippers, pink slippers, sneakers and just socks, and his shirt randomly being portrayed as a Skeleton T-Shirt) is because he intentionally changes his clothes every time nobody's looking mid-conversation to annoy them by making his design inconsistent
    Another theory is that Sans isn't talking about Frisk CAUSING an anomaly in his fight, but that Frisk IS an anomaly, which would explain both their abnormal mass of determination and how they didn't get literally erased from existence from Omega Flowey and moreso Asriel who is LITERALLY OMNIPOTENT-

      Ok, the first one I agree because it's funny.
      For the second one, I feel like he might be confusing flowey's saving and loading powers with the player's, as they work in similar ways, and it would make sense considering the player Is an anomaly compared to the rest of the cast

    one of my favorite theories is that each of the ruins basic monsters stand for the six souls:
    whimsun as bravery (the most cowardly at the start, gains courage as whimsalot, with text like "It finally stopped worrying.")
    loox as justice (its symbol as an eye and bully fits in with the flavor text for yellow in ball game: "Your sure-fire accuracy put an end to the mayhem."
    vegetoid as kindness (green attack that heals you, the green equipment is apron and frying pan, flavor text in ball game is "Your concern and care for "Ball" led to a delicious victory."
    migosp as integrity (check says "It seems evil, but it's just with the wrong crowd", ball game says "Hopping and twirling, your original style pulled you through", begins dancing when alone.
    moldsmal as patience (literally immobile, described as "pensive", "ruminating", "quiet". the sudden appearance of moldbygg mimics ball text saying "You waited, still, for this opportunity, ... then dethroned "Ball" with a sharp attack", and afterward the solution is to leave it be "unhug").
    froggit as perseverance (it is flattered or scared even while not understanding, but helps you understand with tutorial text. flavor text in the ball game is "Even when you felt trapped, you took notes and achieved the end", and final froggit is defined by its perfect understanding.)

    Theory: Sans comes from Deltarune in some way we will know in the future. Papyrus stated that before Snowdin there was "green grass", implying that they lived on the surface. Also in the machine room there are photos of sans with people you dont know, which could very well be from Deltarune.

      I've always thought it possible that sans is a darkner. it can be assumed that darkners bleed (lancer's dialogue with the bucket indicates this), explaining sans' bleeding in undertale. in deltarune, lighters have achromatic talking sprites while darkners have coloured talking sprites. sans' head is black-and-white regardless, which I could see as a cheeky nod to that possibility. not to mention his bizarre usage of ice-e paraphernalia, a brand completely absent from undertale (besides himself) yet common in deltarune

    sans ain't a human, i have 2 reasons why
    1. he knows about the sun, because before they got trapped underground the monsters knew about the sun, but papyrus haven't just heard of it, cuz he is kinda... dumb.
    2. one of the most popular theorys why sans bleeds, is cuz he has a ketchup bottle in his jacket and shirt

    Alright, not sure if this one already exists, but I thought it up awhile ago; it could have plot holes.
    The theory is that Frisk is Chara reincarnated.
    The main idea came to me from the idea that Asriel and Chara's stories could mirror each other this way.
    They both die together and are reborn as different people.
    This could also make the three main endings a conclusion to their story.
    The neutral ending is simply Chara and Asriel not finishing unfinished business, not recognizing each other, not really remembering much, and just focusing on the goals of their current lives.
    Frisk is trying to get out of the underground after being mysteriously drawn to Mount Ebott.
    Flowey wants to collect the human soul's to become godlike and have fun destroying everyone and everything for his own amusement.
    The pacifist ending would be Asriel and Chara dealing with unfinished business from their previous lives.
    They properly meet again and have a final battle where Chara breaks through to Asriel and comforts him because Chara has grown and matured from who they were in their previous life.
    Asriel and Chara then officially free the monsters like they had originally planned.
    They then part ways, finally putting their past to rest.
    And if you include the alarm clock dialogue, Frisk continues to include Flowey in things like Christmas.
    If this theory were correct, Chara and Asriel's friendship would now also be stronger and healthier than before in this new life.
    The genocide route is essentially Chara fully remembering their old life while abandoning their current life.
    They are being brought back to 'life' by remembering everything.
    Thanks to you having frisk uncharacteristically murdering people, they now believe the point of their reincarnation is to gain EXP, LV, etc.
    Which basically means in the genocide route instead of it being you, Chara, and Frisk.
    It's actually just you and Frisk. killing everyone.
    And as for giving Chara the soul?
    That's basically giving up control.
    Chara can now do whatever they want; they let you go on the underground adventure, and what not, but they are the ones fully in control now.
    Do I believe this theory? Not too much, really; I'm sure there are some errors and plot holes, but it was fun to think about due to it giving Chara's story a bit of a happier conclusion during the pacifist and natural routes.

  • @somerandomkid7764
    @somerandomkid7764 2 місяці тому

    You should have brought up the theory of megalavania being the humans theme song and not sans. In every fight the human goes first, but when you fight sans he goes first. So this means that you could be listening to your theme song instead of sans. Megalomaniac means a person obsessed with there power. Sans wouldn’t be obsessed about their his power but the human and chara in the genocide route definitely would be. That explains why there is the song megalo strike back as a unused song since megalomaniac and megalo strike back are both songs for those 2. So sans actual theme would be “Song that might play when you fight sans” since that is what plays when you fight him, not when he fights you.
    Summary: frisk and charas them song is megalovania and megalo strike back, while sans theme is song that might play when you fight sans.
