7:43 the fact that one of the most notable character development with undyne is that she's no longer racist is just so funny lmfao anyways, good analysis btw
This seems like the best place to bring it up, I think the Papyrus fight exists for two reasons. The first being to show how far you are truly going and two, to remove an argument. The implication is that the monsters are attacking you up to that point and you're killing them, sure you're also hunting them down but the argument of 'self defense' is present, flimsy but present. Papyrus is there to remove that, he does not fight you, he does not hurt you, he gives you a chance to do better. Papyrus thematically I feel is the 'Last Chance' of the route. For everything you've done there is a degree of justification to it (attacked by Flowey, kill or be killed, self defense) but here? Thats no longer a position you can take.
@@gamercentral2417*especially* monster kid. Monster kid. The one who ACTUALLY never attacked you in the entire game but, instead, *helped* . Papyrus we can say that he didn't was the better person because, let's be real, attacking a kid with bones is outright terrible and there's not justification for it or for the electric maze (he also in genocide *admits* that he tortures you with his puzzles. So he *knows* what he's doing. And yet, he doesn't *care* ).
@ he doesn’t torture you. The electric puzzle doesn’t hurt noted by the fact you take no damage And no other trap does anything that could hurt you Monster kid actually tries to fight you
@gamercentral2417 Monster Kid literally was DISRUPTED. FRISK was the one who started the fight. He even gives you a chance to forgive him. He doesn't fights back even. If you check him or waste your time doing anything that isn't fighting or using mercy, he doesn't fights back. He just waits until you make your choice. Papyrus? He literally admits that he tortures you. Implying that he wants to. And doesn't matter if his puzzles "doesn't" hurt us. He's forcing us to complete them. Without asking towards us or Frisk if we want to complete it. Why? Because he doesn't cares. Because he cares more about sharing without even thinking if that could be something annoying to us (which it is, because it takes us more time to reach to Asgore and having the possibility to get out of the underground).
we may not know much about frisk but... Their rizz is EXTREMELY important to the undertale plot. trust me! the flirting is essencial and we all know!!!
@@APieceOfDamnBread * it stands for Radiant Incremental Zesty Zaza. * ... * you don't know what "zaza" stands for? * ... i won't tell you. * you only need to know that it's something you don't want to consume.
This is why i say the Player and Frisk's relationship is like a parent and child. The Human has their own thoughts and feelings but can only really come into their own if you keep them safe and help give them family and friends.
It's also darkly poetic that if you do Pacifist post Genocide because Frisk didn't fight your actions enough to prevent the runs completion at best they'll be stuck with a genocidal spirit in their body forever.
Show yourselves, corrupted monsters! I'm the voice of forgiveness that'll eliminate your monstrous magical forms. Prepare for my judgement underground, for I, the human, am going to utterly enjoy the slaughter!!

A neat part of UT's writing is to provide little bits of character and personality in everyone without outright saying., including Frisk. Frisk may not speak but has a notable amount of unique character traits shown by overworld and combat flavor text. I think that's what's cool, and gives a lot of character despite Frisk never outright speaking
1:58 201X is the year Chara fell which is canon as when the calender saying '201X' is interacted with it says in red text 'The day I came here.' Also the Asriel flashback shows the same human from the game intro during the asriel battle.
I suppose that would likely imply Frisk/The human and Chara showed up in the same year...along with the other six children. Sounds like a really wild year.
Thinking about it, that's probably Chara or the narrator may have done a time skip, as it goes from "in 201X" to "Now our story begins" either Chara fell down that way or the narrator did a timeskip halfway to intentionally mislead the player into thinking 201X is the date the story takes place
@@Military_base01To be fair, the child at first was supposed to be Frisk. However, under the assumption that the date of Chara having fallen was already decided upon, the story DOES begin with Chara falling down, as it technically *kickstarts* the entire story.
What I really love about the Genocide route is how this is the NORMAL route of the game. It makes Frisk unsettling and off putting in snowdin, giving you a real shock of how wrong and out-of-character even your OWN VESSEL is acting. THIS is how someone without any knowledge of the game and only RPGs would see Frisk and many other characters. You have to go out of your way to see who Frisk really is and what makes them an INDIVIDUAL instead of your “MC Character” in what would be seen as “Secret content”

i once made a theory where frisk thinks the undergrounds a dream, par tof why they seem to have closed eyes, almost like sleep walking, idk if this holds up to anything but also loved ur video
About the angel, Asriel's final form has the deltarune's three triangles and circle. He's indeed the angel... But not JUST him. Gerson tells us the deltarune, the emblem's kingdom is a prophecy symbol that an angel who has seen the surface will descend from above to bring freedom, but it could be an angel of death, a harbinger of destruction that wants to "free" the mortal realm. This correspond both to Chara, "the fallen human" who says they are a demon(a fallen angel), Asriel, who turns into an Angel and destroy the barrier and us, the player who chooses what fate awaits the monsters. All three of them having seen the surface, Chara and Asriel having fused and us being a human playing. Also, little detail, the triangle below the winged orb represents the monsters and Undyne has them when she becomes Undyne the undying. Mettaton Neo also looks like an angel.
Small nitpick, the child who falls down at 201X is Chara, we actually don't know why Frisk came up the mountain which can lead to a lot of interesting questions. Also, the garbage dump has some interesting narrations that may or may not be giving us info regarding Frisk's past. I've certainly come across stories exploring that. Also, regarding Individuality as Frisk's Soul trait, wouldn't that make them weaker during genocide? If the main thing driving them forward is replaced with something else, wouldn't that have consequences on their abilities similar to the Undyne pacifist date fight? Don't get me wrong, I like it, its a good and unique theory, but that question came to my mind. I still think Determination is Frisk's Soul trait, because you can be determined to do anything which is very powerful, which, Frisk is. You can be detemined to be kind, you can be determined to kill, and you can be determined to be yourself. (Also, the ball game narration could be interpreted as exasperation, because *of course* you got the color of Determination, the thing that's been there the whole way.) Also, something else I thought of. Damage done to "Boss enemies". While catching them off-guard most likely plays a part, the numbers we deal to them compared to regular enemies is out of proportion, even with betrayal kills being accounted for. It's most likely a representation of Frisk's killing intent, AKA how much they want that person dead for whatever reason. Even Sans, who was on his guard enough to dodge, took 7-digit amounts of damage, and don't get me started on the ridicilous number that's the damage Asgore takes. Admittedly, these blows are most likely dealt by Chara (for a multitude of reasons, such as a second person doing a second hit in a turn flexing the rules enough, them wanting this pointless charade over with as soon as possible, and their complicated past with Flowey making it likely for them to uh, "express" their displeasure to Flowey, reperatedly.) but that also gives credence to killing intent=damage theory, as neither of them really care enough about the common monsters they encounter on the way to *really* want them dead.
My theory for the red soul trait is that it's Ambition, an option from the goner maker section where you choose what to give your vessel as a gift in Deltarune, to me it feels so interesting that it's next to soul traits such as Kindness and Bravery, options like "mind" or "voice" are just natural things, then there's *Ambition,* plus the word "ambition" literally is just desiring to do or achieve something, which describes "the player" and Frisk both basically being really determined to do genocide just to see what happens and/or to complete everything the world has to offer, same can be said with Chara, who was pretty ambitious with their plan to free the monsters from the underground.
imo Chara manifests themselves through Frisk's body in geno, they even state that who the person in the mirror is with "It's me, Chara.", it's no longer a playful "Look Frisk, It's you!" but a "This is me", I think this time it's Chara's individuality, or maybe after all, both route's individuality are the Player's, we know for a fact the soul is ourselves, Deltarune even showing us that. Plus that other Him didn't just yank Kris's soul when the game just started and we didn't even make a vessel yet, he got it from somewhere. So while Frisk and Chara got determination and their own individuality, our individuality as the Player matters more, and THAT makes us the one in control... outside of cutscenes ig
2:40 jack(septiceye) said they're cute tho Anyway, ill still believe the red soul is determination, not for much reason, i like the individuality concept (or theory), but tbh red = determination has been fried into my brain
I like this interpretation even if it is a little bit too "have your cake and eat it" with frisk and the human being different but that really the only way this works without it being a kris like situation.
I've noticed you added outlines to the text in this video and while this is a small change, it makes the video a lot easier to read since it prevents the text from blending in with the background.
its kind of interesting to see how frisk doesn’t really have their own agency like kris does and it makes the deltarune and undertale parallels more interesting
2:02 btw, that might not be how Frisk got to the underground but how Chara fell down. We know that the 'fallen human' shown in the intro of the game is Chara, and the intro scene says "MT. EBOTT 201X" and also shows Chara tripping over a vine and falling down, which is very similar to what the kickstarter page explains(moves closer to get a better look and falls down) Though, there's a chance that the story explained in the kickstarter page is originally supposed to be Frisk's, but later changed to Chara's before the official release of the game.

Keep up the great work and good luck in the future!
Me before: Frisk?! HA THEY ARE JUST A BLANK SLAVE/SLATE FOR ME TO CONTROL me after: alright i take that back they got a personality like kris deltarune
Bro, you literally made me cry, no joke. I felt ... I don't know how to describe it! ... proud of myself!? For being myself??? I... it's just hit me to the core and the fact that I still wanna create my AU I find your videos as very ... very close to myself, like if I was talking with someone who understands me like no other, no-one is as interested in UNDERTALE as myself in my surrounding and finding someone like you is just a treasure of itself, Thank you. Genuanly thank you for your work on this fandom, you are makimg it better. Trust me on this one
Fanon Frisk: NO PLEASE NOT MY [[extremly close-friend]] SANS, THIS IS NOT THE WAY, LEMME SHOW YOU DA WAY BECAUSE I AM PURE HEART. Canon Frisk (at least how I interpret this video message): Hey sorry for messing with you earlier, you're fun to play with! Also don't hurt people dude, you should make friends to hang out in the sun, and FREE yourself from negative things! Also Canon: I wonder what happens if I hurt you... Ima keep doing it.
@@dor701 I know. And that is wrong. Frisk cannot choose if they don't remember and not the one who does True Reset. Frisk doesn't even have their own name on the save file.
@@dor701 Frisk has a personality and independent actions, opinion on things. They can even resist us sometimes. For example, even if you want to attack Undyne for real in her house, Frisk won't. The damage will be 1 always. But they're not the one who is behind making main decision for what route will be. Especially after True Pacifist ending. Someone else takes away Frisk's happy ending. It's like the situation with Kris, the difference is that Kris was a teenager with more or less established life, a family that loves them. Frisk was a child who ended up on the mountain no one returns from, and had nothing.
2:12 I'm pretty sure this is referring to Chara, given the fact that 201X is mentioned, which is the year Chara fell down. Still, it's probably the closest thing we've got to an explanation as to how Frisk entered the Underground.
I've always wanted someone to do this, thank gosh!, 1:36 in, and I'm shocked at the theory that the red soul means "Individuality", which I actually really like considering the Player, Frisk, Chara and Kris
THANK YOU, for this video. I love how Frisk has been *always* a character and how interesting he is, even if he's just a child. He's one of my favorites characters (only after Chara).
21:41 even after this you can still go back and reverse all of this.until flowey dies and or chara shows up and give you the choice you can still go back.there will be differences yes but one true reset will fix all of that.
dope video unrelated, but playing through the geno route for the first time, i thought that the slowed down 'In My Way' still being played when you go through the judgement hall was such a cool touch. its like the 'human' doesnt even think of sans in the corridor, only thinking about that little flower who needs to die next, which might cause the appearance of sans to attack the player in their blind spot while they're completely absorbed into the sudden development of chasing down flowey so many little things make that encounter in the judgement hall so cool to this day
@Military_base01 Except those are feelings. You can feel brave, just, patient, perseverant, kind, integral and determined. But you can't feel "individual".
@@narrativeless404I don't think brave is justice. You can feel a SENSE of justice, like how you can feel a sense of individuality. I've never heard of a sense of patience though
@Aktedya1-jt7vw I don't think Justice is Determinatiin either, but according to the guy, they are both Yellow. Justice and Sense of Justice are basically the same, while tf is Sense of Individuality even is!? Like, isn't that just self-awareness every sapient being has?
My problem is-I don't really understand how it works in No Mercy, does their personality just vanish towards the end and only Chara's, poisoned by LOVE, left? How final scene works? Do they just acquired new body? Do they talk to an empty husk? It's very confusing
Wow, nice video! I hadn't thought of Frisk like that before, and it makes me think of the implications this has on the character of Chara, too. I think following this school of thought, maybe Chara was kind like Frisk, but when faced with hardships, instead of sticking with the person they were, they resorted to hostility and lost themselves, their individuality. So while they weren't evil per say, they didn't have the same will power to solve things peacefully even when it seemed hopeless. (At least before the genocide route, but that's its own can of worms I'm unsure of)
Frisk analysis about frisk on UA-cam is crazy.Wait,did I add accurate analysis?Well we don’t talk about Underlab (no ,not at all).Anyway amazing job man.

While catching them off-guard most likely plays a part, the numbers we deal to them compared to regular enemies is out of proportion, even with betrayal kills being accounted for. It's most likely a representation of Frisk's killing intent, AKA how much they want that person dead for whatever reason. Even Sans, who was on his guard enough to dodge, took 7-digit amounts of damage, and don't get me started on the ridicilous number that's the damage Asgore takes. Admittedly, these blows are most likely dealt by Chara (for a multitude of reasons, such as a second person doing a second hit in a turn flexing the rules enough, them wanting this pointless charade over with as soon as possible, and their complicated past with Flowey making it likely for them to uh, "express" their displeasure to Flowey, reperatedly.) but that also gives credence to killing intent=damage theory, as neither of them really care enough about the common monsters they encounter on the way to *really* want them dead.
my theory is the red soul is the combination of all the other traits
My theory for the red soul trait is that it's Ambition, an option from the goner maker section where you choose what to give your vessel as a gift in Deltarune, to me it feels so interesting that it's next to soul traits such as Kindness and Bravery, options like "mind" or "voice" are just natural things, then there's *Ambition,* plus the word "ambition" literally is just desiring to do or achieve something, which describes "the player" and Frisk both basically being really determined to do genocide just to see what happens and/or to complete everything the world has to offer, same can be said with Chara, who was pretty ambitious with their plan to free the monsters from the underground.
imo Chara manifests themselves through Frisk's body in geno, they even state that who the person in the mirror is with "It's me, Chara.", it's no longer a playful "Look Frisk, It's you!" but a "This is me", I think this time it's Chara's individuality, or maybe after all, both route's individuality are the Player's, we know for a fact the soul is ourselves, Deltarune even showing us that. Plus that other Him didn't just yank Kris's soul when the game just started and we didn't even make a vessel yet, he got it from somewhere. So while Frisk and Chara got determination and their own individuality, our individuality as the Player matters more, and THAT makes us the one in control... outside of cutscenes ig
Nah IT THW BALL GAME …
The ending Juice.ogg soundtrack is so beautiful...best song you've used in a video ever! Hope to hear this banger again. :)
Well they our friend inside us...wait friend inside oh no FRIEND INSIDE ME FRIENDS INSIDE ME FRIEND INSIDE ME
2:40 jack(septiceye) said they're cute tho
Anyway, ill still believe the red soul is determination, not for much reason, i like the individuality concept (or theory), but tbh red = determination has been fried into my brain
No,determination is always color yellow.We don’t know what color it is.But the soul we have,it the ball game.
Frisk easily solos goku. What is he gonna do when frisk clicks flirt a gazillion times
(Goku looks at you with death in his eyes)
“FLIRT”
@@Tofoe9182 Flirting Scaling time?
Predator test!
Rage bate. everyone knows Goku is not affected by flirting in any way shape or form
@@johnchatzialexiou4168 how is it rage bait it’s a joke
my favourite character of the game getting their own video, yummers!
Yes, frisk is my favourit character too!❤
I like this interpretation even if it is a little bit too "have your cake and eat it" with frisk and the human being different but that really the only way this works without it being a kris like situation.
I've noticed you added outlines to the text in this video and while this is a small change, it makes the video a lot easier to read since it prevents the text from blending in with the background.
Human... i remember you're GENOCIMES
frisk:-_-
me:-_-
Very unique Undertale video I love these character dissection videos! ❤
its kind of interesting to see how frisk doesn’t really have their own agency like kris does and it makes the deltarune and undertale parallels more interesting
Actually kinda peak?? never seen a frisk analysis and what you propose in the video is really interesting. Keep cooking!!!
The WHAT inside us?
I can put it down further
@@DaviUndertale 👅
Pregaggegnent?!
@@steadfast1448 yes
*friend*
I love how well-edited this whole thing is compared to your other videos (all your videos are good btw)
2:02 btw, that might not be how Frisk got to the underground but how Chara fell down. We know that the 'fallen human' shown in the intro of the game is Chara, and the intro scene says "MT. EBOTT 201X" and also shows Chara tripping over a vine and falling down, which is very similar to what the kickstarter page explains(moves closer to get a better look and falls down)
Though, there's a chance that the story explained in the kickstarter page is originally supposed to be Frisk's, but later changed to Chara's before the official release of the game.
Also for video suggestions.

This feels like a fanfiction character study, great work!
Frisk from Axetale🤢
@@Military_base01hey dude if you actually try to read axetale it actually has some good parts.
Uhhh yeah
This comment had been a long time coming, but I have to say how much your content is appreciated. I don’t know how it took so long for someone like you to show up and start covering Undertale content in an honest and straightforward way, but stuff like this is probably the best we could ask for. Keep up the great work and good luck in the future!
25:36 “You’ll never give up.”
“And you are also never gonna let down.”
“You are never gonna run around,”
“And desert you.”
so... Frisk is the friend inside us?
30:13 "The brat had learned reverse cursed technique"
so excited to watch this >__
Individuality is something i havent thought about the red soul could be
Haven't watched the video yet, I bet It's great and cool and awesome, but...
Human Inside Me
Me before: Frisk?! HA THEY ARE JUST A BLANK SLAVE/SLATE FOR ME TO CONTROL
me after: alright i take that back they got a personality like kris deltarune
As someone whose favorite character is frisk, this video is quite nice! Nothing much else to say here, keep up the good work!
Bro, you literally made me cry, no joke. I felt ... I don't know how to describe it! ... proud of myself!? For being myself??? I... it's just hit me to the core and the fact that I still wanna create my AU I find your videos as very ... very close to myself, like if I was talking with someone who understands me like no other, no-one is as interested in UNDERTALE as myself in my surrounding and finding someone like you is just a treasure of itself, Thank you. Genuanly thank you for your work on this fandom, you are makimg it better. Trust me on this one
W video drop. I really like your content man, completely brought me back into Undertale.
Fanon Frisk: NO PLEASE NOT MY [[extremly close-friend]] SANS, THIS IS NOT THE WAY, LEMME SHOW YOU DA WAY BECAUSE I AM PURE HEART.
Canon Frisk (at least how I interpret this video message): Hey sorry for messing with you earlier, you're fun to play with! Also don't hurt people dude, you should make friends to hang out in the sun, and FREE yourself from negative things!
Also Canon: I wonder what happens if I hurt you... Ima keep doing it.
The last one is you. Frisk forgets everything after True Reset and genocide endings. The can't be the one initiating things.
@@justauser6078 but uh.. the point of this video is to prove that it's actually Frisk the one who chooses that and not the player
@@dor701
I know. And that is wrong. Frisk cannot choose if they don't remember and not the one who does True Reset. Frisk doesn't even have their own name on the save file.
@@dor701
Frisk has a personality and independent actions, opinion on things. They can even resist us sometimes. For example, even if you want to attack Undyne for real in her house, Frisk won't. The damage will be 1 always.
But they're not the one who is behind making main decision for what route will be. Especially after True Pacifist ending. Someone else takes away Frisk's happy ending.
It's like the situation with Kris, the difference is that Kris was a teenager with more or less established life, a family that loves them. Frisk was a child who ended up on the mountain no one returns from, and had nothing.
2:12 I'm pretty sure this is referring to Chara, given the fact that 201X is mentioned, which is the year Chara fell down. Still, it's probably the closest thing we've got to an explanation as to how Frisk entered the Underground.
Favorite undertale channel back at it again with another 3 star Michelin video
i actually really like the visuals and new editing style (especially in the pacifist section!) keep up the good work!
I've always wanted someone to do this, thank gosh!, 1:36 in, and I'm shocked at the theory that the red soul means "Individuality", which I actually really like considering the Player, Frisk, Chara and Kris
You dropped this: 🎙️
Mike
@@Military_base01 no, you had no narration, it was just text
Gender Neutral? Nah I'm Gender Pacifist
Geno: The human is Chara
Neutral: The human is the player
Pacifist: Chara, Frisk, and the player are separated as their own people.
Sp dusttale stream got age restricted 🗣️🗣️🗣️
Human you are evil i gotta kill you. Good god you are evil. Good god!!! God!!!!! *Random images of gore* Ough oopsie.
THANK YOU, for this video. I love how Frisk has been *always* a character and how interesting he is, even if he's just a child. He's one of my favorites characters (only after Chara).
Yo you switched up editing styles recently? Nice! I really like it, it looks cool and unique to you.
21:41 even after this you can still go back and reverse all of this.until flowey dies and or chara shows up and give you the choice you can still go back.there will be differences yes but one true reset will fix all of that.
7:46 this is absolutely peak bravo
I can feel the human inside me
dope video
unrelated, but playing through the geno route for the first time, i thought that the slowed down 'In My Way' still being played when you go through the judgement hall was such a cool touch. its like the 'human' doesnt even think of sans in the corridor, only thinking about that little flower who needs to die next, which might cause the appearance of sans to attack the player in their blind spot while they're completely absorbed into the sudden development of chasing down flowey
so many little things make that encounter in the judgement hall so cool to this day
1:35 "Individuality" is not a feeling.
This can't be a Soul trait.
Neither is justice, patience, perseverance, bravery, kindness and integrity???
@Military_base01 Except those are feelings.
You can feel brave, just, patient, perseverant, kind, integral and determined.
But you can't feel "individual".
Flowey is filled with... Individuality...?
@@narrativeless404I don't think brave is justice. You can feel a SENSE of justice, like how you can feel a sense of individuality. I've never heard of a sense of patience though
@Aktedya1-jt7vw I don't think Justice is Determinatiin either, but according to the guy, they are both Yellow.
Justice and Sense of Justice are basically the same, while tf is Sense of Individuality even is!?
Like, isn't that just self-awareness every sapient being has?
don't say it... don't say it... don't say it... don't say it... don't say it...
My problem is-I don't really understand how it works in No Mercy, does their personality just vanish towards the end and only Chara's, poisoned by LOVE, left? How final scene works? Do they just acquired new body? Do they talk to an empty husk? It's very confusing
Still the same I believe.
Chara is very much present though.
1:59 But it says there that it is the year 201X and that year was the year that Chara fell, not Frisk.
8:52 frisk is the Undertale...
I hate how I never realized that red was for individuality instead of determination 😭
Human inside us? That's pretty sus
Human inside me
I relate to the thumbnail bc i can feel the human tickling inside me🥰😍
30:05 honestly that was based af
Frisk having that level 100 rizz is also important for the plot (trust me)
“The Human inside us”
That’s what she said.
Based, I remember you're CHARACTER ANALYSIS.
As a human, I approve of this video
7:43 the word your searching for is misanthropic which is the hatred of all of humanity
Wow, nice video! I hadn't thought of Frisk like that before, and it makes me think of the implications this has on the character of Chara, too. I think following this school of thought, maybe Chara was kind like Frisk, but when faced with hardships, instead of sticking with the person they were, they resorted to hostility and lost themselves, their individuality. So while they weren't evil per say, they didn't have the same will power to solve things peacefully even when it seemed hopeless. (At least before the genocide route, but that's its own can of worms I'm unsure of)
2:40 mannnnn... I haven't heard Frisk being called a giraffe since Undertales early age.. which was about like let's sayy.. maybe 6 years ago?
Frisk analysis about frisk on UA-cam is crazy.Wait,did I add accurate analysis?Well we don’t talk about Underlab (no ,not at all).Anyway amazing job man.
20:10 I'm pretty sure an random guy would say "CROSSBONES REFERENCE?!?!?!"
Feels like Frisk is a prototype Kris...
Especially in the separate being thing.
