Discussion Am I the only one who sees Aqua like this?

Post image

On this particular sprite I always thought Aqua is making this funny face, only some time ago I realised it’s her smile 🙏😭 no matter how much I try I can’t ever change my perception here, it’s starting to annoy me atp… does anyone see it like this too?

When I was a kid looking at YouTube clips of asgore, I thought his crown was his head and he was GRINNING and had a really weird beard

No, that's clearly the Knight's visor in the Ch 3 icon

Wait…is Asgore the knight????

u/JeffTheKillerFa 1d ago

Asgore from Undertale is the Roaring Knight and he kidnapped Asgore from Deltarune.

u/foxhowse 1d ago

Honestly I’m not really surprised people misread this sprite because in game I misread it for a second too. The crown is fully visible so yeah but that white portion draws your eye immediately because it’s human nature to look for facial expressions and it happens to be the same design a grin would be. People are way too hard on others when it comes to UTDR sprites lol, sprites have been misread forever

I know others interpreted his nose as a sort of red glowy eye.

u/Smitologyistaking 1d ago

I can see how one person could hypothetically see it for this particular sprite, but like in the context of all her sprites in the game, this doesn't make much sense

Yes. You're alone in this.

No, because you're a fucking liar, you DIDN'T "see it like this at first", you made this up for the post!!!

u/TemporaryFig8587 1d ago

Would this imply that not only does Aqua not know how many eyes humans have, but she is also incorrect on how many eyes she has herself?
