sans - all elite wrestling

still one of the funniest wrestler intros of all time. like, as much as i appreciate sasha banks sailor moon cosplay or the new day coming out of a giant box of cereal as saiyans, there is something special about a ring announcer having to say that kenny omega is calling on the power of sans from undertale. a really special moment that transcends wrestling itself.

anyway sans is the only reason people play mii gunner. im sure that people would have played cuphead to some extent, but the funny skeleton damn near overshadowed banjo on release, and banjo was banjo! what i think i appreciate most about sans as a character is that, in spite of his overwhelming memetic status and very easily being a character who could lean into that, he just stays totally in-character in his subsequent appearances. he doesnt become a series of references or memes to try to pop the crowd, he plays on the expectation of potentially doing that, and then just keeps living as a character, interacting with toriel and asgore, talking about his brother - sans remains sans. and i really appreciate that about him. i also love the general juxtaposition his existence leaves the game of undertale in, wherein its a fun but fairly straightforward and easy shump-type game if you play it regularly, carried by charm and character that sans exudes. if you dont like it, or even care too much about it, sans provides you with the greatest mechanical reward in the game, at the cost of literally destroying all the things he actually cares about. im not gonna say its a great commentary or anything, i just find it neat and really reinforces the reason the characters the way he is. and the boss fight is really fun.
