people will be like "toriel and asgore are both flawed!!!" & then immediately drop a take so cold it makes it clear they've never thought about her for more than 2 seconds consecutively in their life.

this is only a smidge of all the stuff i said in a fit of what i can only describe as righteous sexism fueled rage.

absolutely nothing in a video game has set a tone as well as asgore smashing the mercy button at the start of his fight and thats just a fucking fact 

Please elaborate. I want to hear more about what you think of this.

not to be serious about epic divorce man but like. the asgore fight is more or less the payoff of the advertised theme of undertale - “you don’t have to kill anyone”, and he does the most to challenge this theme, not just to the player but on a personal level, since the running motif of undertale’s monsters is that they don’t want to kill you either, but they have to or less they will never be free. 

the scene beforehand, where small shock plays, is given additional context on replays and knowing how chara, flowey, asriel, and frisk all relate to each other - asgore is looking at someone who looks identical and acts identically to his child who, from his perspective, died of an illness that he could not prevent, and he has to kill them again 

it is as equally “you cannot spare me” as it is “i cannot spare you”, which when juxtaposed against how asgore never uses attacks that are aimed at the player directly, creates the mood that is “neither of us want to be here but we have to be for there to be a future at all so someone needs to fucking die already” and its really fucking good

really imagine being kris and you discover the undertale universe. paralell copies of most everyone you know, post-return to the surface, living these enriched, happier lives. following relationships they didn’t pursue in your world, no longer dealing with the strains of weird small town problems. everything seems great. you go find your parents and they’re still divorced
