    Don't forget about the Touhou references on the characters creation:
    -Frisk and Chara's colours are almost the same as Satori and Koishi, Satori get along with animals and Koishi has a knife (even if Frisk is supposed to be based on Ness)
    -Papyrus is from a snow level, that we can considerate like the stage 2, and he is dumb, like our Beloved Tomboyish Girl, Cirno the Ice Fairy
    -Asgore's weapon are similar to Remilia's Gungir
    Bonus:
    -On the PS4 version, there is a dog shrine and you can donate, it is like the Hakurei Shrine from Touhou
    -The whole plot of Undertale is based on Touhou 11: Sealed Youkais underground who want to escaped, creatures who want become as strong as God
    -Omega Flowey's battle is literaly a bullet hell, but the soul's attacks are like spell cards

  • @MsQuote
    @MsQuote 6 лет назад +284

    I feel like you spent TOO much time on Yandere simulator and Touhou Project so I'm going to make a quick list of stuff you missed:
    1. The games dialogue itself, has many Earthbound references. Like how Sans says "On days like these, kids like you..." referencing a police officer with the exact same dialogue in Earthbound.
    2. Frisk's design is an amalgamation of Ness from Earthbound, and Madotsuki from Yume Nikki. They wear a stripped shirt like Ness and have Asian eyes like Madotsuki. (The yellow skin is a mystery to me)
    3. Speaking of Yume Nikki, That "Chill" scene with Nabstablook is an overall homage to Yume Nikki.
    4. Sans and Papyrus are oddly similar to two other comic characters named after fonts. It helps that J N Weedle's name is in Papyrus and Sans' credits.
    5. Flowey is an ENTIRE can of references. His theme syncs up well with the F.U.N song from Spongebob, most of his and the Amalgamates voice clips, are edited versions of McDonald's commercials, and his iconic laugh is taken from a PS1 game (that I can't name)
    6. Once Upon a Time is a reference to the song Mother Earth from (use your best guess) and the opening sequence about the war against humans and monsters, has a very similar story to that of Cave Story
    7. The song Determination was actually suppose to have a Zelda 1 game over vibe to it, but Toby was too lazy to change the pitch of the song in FL Studio.
    8. The track Thundersnail is an edited sample on FL Studio
    9. The hidden song Star has the same soundfont as the original Star Fox
    10. Gaster's theme sounds similar to Lavander Town
    11. Almost every song that centers the Annoying Dog, was made in Mario Paint.
    12. A deticated artist by the name of Michelle Czajkowski (creator of Ava's Demon) donated to a joke tier on the Kickstarter page. That character later went on to be Muffet. Obviously, a reference to the famous nursery rhyme.

      Overall I’m just a casual gamer who likes to vibe with whatever

    • @RemsHusband
      @RemsHusband 2 года назад +25

      Yeah the touhou fanbase is one of the most chill fan bases I have come across. I have rarely seen anyone from the touhou community attacking other people (excluding undertale) unless your are intentionally rocking the boat, even then its only the really salty ones that will pick fights. Any time I have ever seen someone ask "what is touhou?" or "who is x character" or even the dreaded "Is touhou an anime?", the fan base will generally try to answer the question in great detail even linking wiki pages, etc. The community is also really accepting towards people who have never played a touhou game. Infact, I'd say a little over half of the western touhou fan base has never even played a single touhou game. That being said, its probably because of the natural barrier to entry that the touhou series has. You need to know a fair bit of the plot/characters of the popular games (EoSD, PCB, IN, MoF) if you even hope to understand most of the memes and inside jokes of the community. There is also a lot of overlap with the touhou community and the anime community, which is also generally pretty chill as well (excluding the MHA and similar fan bases of course). All of these factors generally attract people who are over the age of 14 making the community more mature as a whole. On the other hand, undertale is way easier compared to touhou and also easier to find (its literally on the front page of steam most of the time) while touhou games are near impossible to find unless you know where to look. Undertale also tends to attract edgy kids who are between the ages of 8 and 12. That group of people are generally not the most friendly which makes the Undertale community pretty toxic. I feel like if you removed everyone under the age of 15 from the Undertale community, it wouldn't be too dissimilar to the touhou community but the small children give the community a bad reputation considering they make up a pretty good majority of it.
      Anyway, this comment was ment to be short but I ended up writing an entire fucking essay about the touhou and Undertale communitys.
      TL;DR: the touhou fanbase is chill and nice and the Undertale fanbase is toxic cause of small children
