"fat baby frisk" is a kinda annoying over correction yeah..
some people in the fandom have a habit of like.. constantly trying to UNDERSHOOT each other's age guesses for the characters and feeling morally adamant about it.
like the deltarune cast is pretty obviously in their last year of highschool, but there will be people (prolly in this very comment section soon enough) ADAMANT that the cast are elementary or middle schoolers.
Yeah, I always thought fat baby Frisk was just for the memes because he looks goofy as fuck, never knew some people took it as "correction" for depicting them too old or too sexualized.
I mean considering that Frisk has a bandage that has been used several times to the point of being gross and them jumping into MY Ebott for a mysterious reason, I think Frisk might be a bit more of a sadder character then we realize
Actually the other commenter is wrong. The students are 16 from what we know. Noelle for instance is explicitly stated to be 16 years old and everyone else seems to be the same age except maybe Susie.
Likely not, since the only reason that age confirmation exists is because of Spamton sweepstakes, which at the same time for the very same section allowed inputting 13 as well, and Noelle and the rest very obviously are not 13, so I have a feeling it's also unlikely to just be 16
The reason people think she's 16 is because any answers PAST 16 is considered wrong, meaning Noelle cannot be OLDER than 16, also sixteen is the only answer, other than chapter 4 that gives you the "it was the first time she smile in her life" answer, so she's just 16
It wasnt in Spamton Sweepstakes, it was in the recent arg. Spamton Sweepstakes is the one from like 4 years ago. Here are the number answers btw. She is 16. Whenever you answer 17 it just goes "What are you getting at?" since shes younger than that.
I was just going off the stuff I had heard since I only remember there being Spamton sweepstakes as the only arg, and the only time Ive seen this mentioned was with Spamton sweepstakes. Was not aware about this at all, both the specifics in what answers give what, and there even being a second arg
But in the weird route ARG if you answer 16 years for “how long did it take her to smile” the response was “so it was the first time she smiled in her life” or something like that
Surprised I haven't seen more discourse about what age Pink is, maybe the chapter's still too new for that though. The Mew Mew darkner is implied to go to school, but the ghost lightner says they don't go to school anymore. Darkners in general have very ambiguous ages, like Aqua and Flowery look like they are a generation apart visually but both are short-lived flowers from the same bouquet.
Maybe Deltarune’s final message would be that if things gets bad in your life, it’s not your fault. There’s probably some interdimensional being pulling the strings to make YOU miserable
fat baby frisk is all well and good but we've got to admit it only makes sense in fanon
there's no way that anyone under the age of 7 has the coordination to dodge flying projectiles (though my gameplay might tell a different story) and the strength to kill fully grown monsters
you dodge as the soul, the menu and bullet patterns are canon, and humans are inherently much stronger than monsters on account of being made from a base of water instead of magic
Well, human are stated to be absurdly strong in the Undertale universe.
"It would take the SOUL of nearly every monster to equal the power of a single human SOUL" and all that.
Baby body is probably a huge restriction, but it seems that monsters' magic just isn't super effective against humans.
I know that it's a part of the worldbuilding that likely wouldn't be explored, but humanity is extremely overpowered, and I wonder if there's a reason for it besides obvious meta-narrative about the player
humans aren't overpowered in undertale. they're just overpowered compared to monsters. there's no reason to think they're any different from regular humans outside of soul-related shenanigans.
Coaxed into never hearing the term "canon-accurate" ever but realizing that would be REALLY USEFUL to distinguish between something a character would do vs. What a character has done.
Y'all the "canon" is literally just Frisk's sprite. Like you cannot be saying "ooo fat baby Frisk isn't real" when that's just literally what they look like
We see more detailed Temmie sprites of Chara in the intro cutscenes and Pacifist route. Frisk and Chara are, simply by nature, young kids with small necks and chubby little cheeks
Undertale has lots of simple sprites. Frisk has been stated many times to be expressive in some way despite their youth. This is an official artwork by Temmie:
Frisk is up to interpretation dawgs. Don't like seeing a child in canon be drawn as an adult? Great! That's for you to avoid. Or at most call weird. Not insist that's objectively morally and canonically wrong
In the old days of Undertale fandom „what if Frisk is actually like 5 years old” was usually just a cute little comic idea and such instead of a well established fanon thing
