    Asriel's character is so well done here. He holds Chara in a pedestal and can't even accept that they used to be a bad friend, instead blaming himself of what happened on the surface. And the moment Chara's behavior diverges from this idealized version that never actually existed, the only explanation Asriel can accept is that Frisk corrupted them (like how Undyne accused Frisk of turning Papyrus against her, when in reality it was his choice)

      Hello again. If I had a nickel for every time I ran into you... well...
      Anyway, I kinda did get a little emotional watching this too, it reminded me of Encanto, y'see. And from Chara's final lines, I felt both the catharsis of standing up to someone you resent, as well as foundation-shattering despair from being rejected by someone you idolize. I think it touches on something pretty real on both sides and does well in exploring the not-great relationship Chara and Asriel once had.

      in my headcanon of flowey, as a person who has flowey has their favorite character i think AFTER normal ut happened (any route) flowey would just be like "i know turning back into asriel wont work" and he stops putting chara on a pedastol and blames himself
      its just interpretation though..i do strongly belive that flowey knows he cant turn back into asriel after normal ut takes place, because if u try fighting omega flowey after a number of resets (forgot how many) hell just say the souls will revolt again and decide not to fight u

This is the crown jewel of the Undertale Fandom, and the staff who worked on every little piece of Inverted Fate should be celebrated for their determination.

    @stormy1303 Год назад +127

    ALRIGHT
    THIS WAS SO GOOD.
    This might be up there with The Angel's Promise, which is my all time favourite chapter of IF.
    This massive, golden church was so strikingly different in design from the greyscale underground, and the pitch black entrance to the rift... and all the ghostly figures praising Asriel left this terrifying feeling to the whole place.
    (Also it all really reminded me of the premiere chat Asriel cult, this really is the Asriel cult chapter)
    Asriel showed how much of a hypocrite he is, again, by saying he wants to lift Chara of their burdens and yet idolizing them and placing them on a pedestal.
    The story of Chara and Asriel recounted as this origin story for a god was genuinely so unexpected, yet so in line with what Asriel's been doing up until this point. Literally, when I saw the Book of Asriel my jaw dropped, i wasn't expecting that at all but it fit so well...
    When the door opened, and I saw the cloaked figure saying that Frisk would have no purpose at all without Flowey, basically saying everything Flowey had used to abuse and gaslight Frisk, I was genuinely hoping it wouldn't be Lilac. What do you know, it was Lilac. A different version of her, controlled by Asriel... and it was absolutely terrifying to see. Again, IF shows an amazing ability to make the viewers feel something, which is just a part of what makes its writing so good.
    And now, onto my favourite part.
    THE MINIBOSS.
    THE. MINIBOSS.
    As Frisk and Chara approached the shrine, I was genuinely asking myself what will happen, but I surely wasn't expecting THIS.
    Asriel's ego forming this.. pale white figure with angel wings and hollow, black eyes, styled so differently in comparison to the other battle sprites... it was AMAZING. Chara and Frisk slowly shattering its composure was really satisfying to see, and its voice changing from this echoed whisper to Asriel's own voice as he screamed out, asking what is real if not his world... Just. BRILLIANT.
    And the music for this boss? SO GOOD. The whispers singing praise for Asriel was again, something I wasn't expecting, but something that fit SO WELL. Just, an amazing piece of music all throughout, complimenting the boss fight perfectly.
    I LOVED THIS SO MUCH.
    In the end, the temple turned to gray, and Chara and Frisk were thrown... who knows where, as it shattered.
    The postcredits with the human souls and, what was presumably Papyrus's soul... they left me even more hyped than before.
    Just, this was such a good chapter, and I'm excited for more Inverted Fate.

    After watching this, let me just say this was great! I always loved how this au portrays Asriel as less then perfect and acknowledges the fact that he is still flowey. Another thing I love is how chara is still a person with flaws but isn’t the “murder happy person” this is honestly one of my favorite au’s because it feels like a story that could be in undertale. It isn’t just one of those au’s where it’s only sans, ( although a lot of those au’s can be great, their just a little over done) this one has everyone + more. I know this au has been in development for over 6(?) years and i just wanna say, keep up the amazing work! Can’t wait to see what’s next

      28:45 notice how their voice reverts back to normal and how at 29:23, they start shaking like they are afraid.
      Asriel seems to genuinely be afraid of losing Chara in that moment. As Cap said, Asriel’s facade breaks, and we can see what he really is:
      They’re not just a brat who refused to grow up.
      Nor are they just a heartless child with attachment issues.
      They’re a little kid who has lost everything, even their sanity, a kid who is afraid of being all alone, and simply just wants Chara to hug them, and not let go.
      They don’t just want Chara to love them again, they *need* him to love him so that everything they have done wasn’t all for nothing. And if Chara still doesn’t love them, then they hurt thousands of people for nothing.

  • @king2.0smods17
    @king2.0smods17 Год назад +23

    This is one of the best chapters in Inverted Fate. Asriel spends the entire video trying to gaslight Frisk and Chara (and by extension, the viewer) into thinking he's this noble, kind all loving hero god whose actions are motivated by benevolence and mercy. It almost makes you think Asriel deserves to be forgiven before you remember all the horrible things he did such as manipulating everyone so he could become god, tormenting Frisk after absorbing the 6 souls, mass murder and kicking Frisk while they're down at least once per episode after becoming god.
    I also like how the cathedral evokes memories of Undertale's Judgement Hall, the holy scripture of Asriel and Chara and how this develops Asriel's character. It showcases how Asriel has become corrupted into a self-aggrandizing hypocrite with a god complex who puts himself and Chara on pedestals which scapegoating Frisk for everything, yet believes that he's entitled to Chara's goodwill just because he resurrected them.
    Then there's also how he uses Lilac's visage to kick Frisk where it hurts, or how the entire episode shows how Asriel's plan is steeped in toxic idealism and how he believes that Chara can do no wrong. The fight with the Effigy of Ego is also one of the best fights in the story, being a showcase of Chara's character development where he stands up to Asriel and exposes his charade for what it is: A toxic friendship where Asriel has all the power in a world based on an idealized past created by tearing down the present world and rewriting history to fit a golden standard that never existed.

    This episode is great. It's like the way I ironically spoke of Asriel in this AU with my friend, like "he technically broke the barrier" and "eh all of the good things that happened happened because of him"...but at first degree. And as the Bible of a new religion : the Asrielism. It's disturbing, which I guess is the wanted goal.
    I really like how Asriel tries to understand Chara, but in the end fails because he idealized Chara so much that he can't see Chara's evolution as a progress. Because if Chara became better than he was, it means that him, trying to adopt Chara's mentality, got worse, and everything he did was for nothing. In Undertale, Asriel needed to be defeated by Frisk's kindness in order to realize that Chara wasn't flawless, but here ? He can't accept it, because he went way too far.
    The fight against EGO was glorious. It was disturbing, scary, emotional and powerful. Chara and Frisk's answers to EGO were perfect, and it's just the first mini-boss ! I can't wait for the next episode.
    Asriel will save us all. Asriel will give us hope. Asriel will set us free. Overiding right and wrong.

Also, the characters are fascinatingly well-built and the analysis are striking on the dot. And the theming overall too... the genuine hope for a brighter future contrasting with the fake one that requires full control, being just a sugarcoated nihilism is a fantastic theme and message to explore!

      The answer is simple, a redemption at this point makes no sense.
      What would win with that? He would lose his powers, no one is going to accept or love him anymore, in the "best" of cases he would live locked up for life, facing the consequences. From a hard and fair point of view, there is a line that if the person crosses, the person does not deserve to receive anything other than consequences and negative things, that is called justice.

    I have noticed one distinction between the 2 endings, in the original, Asriel was like a child playing god, all his attacks were intentionally flashy, over the top, he was trying to look cool while disposing of frisk, in this he's much more cautious and calculated, wearing down and unsettling his enemies (actually, just single enemy.) before they can even reach him, so by the time they reach the end frisk forfeits their soul and chara thanks him...
    Of corse, they're both too determined to do that right?

    Ok here's my theory.
    Asriel is going to go through the stages of grief. In this chapter and the last he's in denial. But we can already see that slipping with the EGO boss. With his ego shattered (and before it died, starting to become angry) we may be entering anger next, which could be th flowey like one in the poster.
    The one after than would be bargaining, so maybe asriel replaces chara in an effort to make them feel jealous. Like he thought was going on with frisk.

  • @DarktoLight561
    @DarktoLight561 Год назад +2

    You know, looking at everything that’s happened I can see what Asriel is going through.
    He’s seen the humans, he’s seen Chara before. He, just like Chara, tried to control an outcome. They both thought that it would lead to a better future. They wanted the best for each other so much that in the end they weren’t seeing what the other truly wanted. Chara with Asriel’s hope of everyone living together in a peaceful world in the past, and Asriel with Chara’s hope to have everything be normal.
    But in the end they both hadn’t learned the lesson that seeing someone as just what’s on the outside, and gaining control to fit ideals, it might just end up with a worse outcome. Asriel learned that lesson shortly after activating the plan and seemed to just forget it, while Chara learned it after realizing how controlling the world can make it worse due to what Asriel has done.
    What I’m trying to say is having control over every little thing in a world, regardless what you do with it, if you can’t see what everything you’ve done has come to, it hurts everything around you. If you wanted to build a world around an image of someone, you may just miss the bigger picture of what you, others, or even the one your idealizing really want.
    In a way, I think Undertale can perfectly show how this can effect people, mainly in a genocide run. They try to control an outcome and forget that these characters, they could see you for what you are. If people can’t see the bigger picture, they can’t see what could’ve made them better.
    Nobody has to fully agree with you, you don’t have to idolize them. But in the end, sometimes the thing with the smallest control, can work to make something better

    I will say, though, it's weird how so many of my favorite pieces of media center around children obtaining and misusing godlike power. Both IF and the original Undertale, Pokemon Reborn, A Better Place, Everything Everywhere All at Once... I wonder what it is about that trope in particular that really speaks to me.
