Undertale OST - Bergentrückung (Intro) + ASGORE Extended

[@strawberryflavoreddemon]

the best part about this song is that it isn’t some big intense battle song, asgore didn’t need to show off his power, or be intimidating, you were preparing for this fight the whole game only to see that he wasn’t some big scary monster king, he was just a scared father and leader desperate to save his kingdom :(

I just noticed something whenever Toriel mentions Asgore, his name is always displayed in red but when someone else mentions him his name is in yellow. Didn't expect her to hate him that much

[@nobgs4505]

I mean, knowing Toriel's nature, she was probably shocked when, after the death of their two kids, Asgore let his emotions get the better of him and flat out declare WAR. While others didn't know Asgore as well they saw this as a chance of hope. Meanwhile Toriel saw that Asgore went too far from the sweet man she used to know him as and left him. When Asgore sees that his actions have also cost him his wife, he realized he had nothing left but had to be a symbol of hope for his kind, thus still on the warpath, albeit VERY reluctantly. He couldn't even bring himself to do it himself cause when he calmed down, he realized he didn't want this. His wife didn't want this. His kids wouldn't have wanted it. But it's too late to turn back now, lest his kind loses faith.

@@nobgs4505 Maybe no one ever wanted it but when your kid dies due to a 'misunderstanding', I think his anger is pretty justified. I always felt bad for him during his boss fight in the neutral run.

[@c.i.a.9606]

Undertale seems very asian when it comes to it's culture. In Asia, writing ones name in red is desplayed as a sign of death, or wanting one to be dead. And I am pretty sure yellow means you see the individual with respect.

The reason Asgore destroys the mercy button at the start of the fight is not because he wants to fight a kid, it's because he feels he doesn't deserve mercy after everything he's done. :(

[@Rivibaes]

+kylezaking And of course, Asgore knows that if the kid used mercy, he couldn't bring himself to continue fighting.

[@Thagyr]

+kylezaking Explains why once he starts fighting he stops looking you in the eyes. His whole fighting stance has him looking down at his feet.

[@BadKarma444]

+Thagyr Though his fighting stance is either depicted like you described or a sadistic smile across his face

[@nori1123]

+Sinning .png It can't be a smile. Notice how below the "grin" there is another spot of white. THAT is his mouth area.

[@Groundash]

+Rivibaes Agreed. Talking to him visibly shakes his determination. If the kid used Mercy, Asgore wouldn't be able to lift a finger anymore.

[@skullnite1042]

Not-so fun fact: in Undertale, Undyne tells the player that during a spar, Asgore dodged all her attacks. This means Asgore lets you stab him with a dull knife... So in retrospect, Asgore didn't break the Mercy option so that you cannot run away... He destroyed it because he feels like he doesn't deserve your Mercy.

[@isakrivo351]

Personally, I think it's either because he means you'll have no mercy, or he doesn't deserve mercy for the things he's done, and what he's doing. In fact, during a certain neutral run, after you kill Flowey in the first one, the next one, Asgore literally kills himself...

[@darkedge9387]

+Video Game Music OH GOD WHAT?

[@AznOmega]

+Video Game Music Spoilers: It is because after what happened with the human souls, he thinks he doesn't deserve mercy. If you killed Flowey at the end of Neutral run and fight Asgore again without becoming friends with Alphys and doing True Labs, he talks about adopting Frisk and being a family with Toriel, before dismissing it as a fantasy and kills himself to let Frisk leave the underground (before Flowey shows up and destroys it).

[@Drache832]

Fun Fact: "Entrückung" is german and means the religious concept of passing into an afterlife after death. "Berg" means mountain. "Bergentrückung" is a rather old believe in different germanic and nordic religions that heroes or kings, when they die, pass into a mountain. Ready to come back and save the people when the time is right.

[@takedown205productions6]

Wasn't there also a German fairytale, about a broken king who was sealed underground for nearly a century or two, only to be released so that he may fight a wicked evil? ... If so, Asgore and his theme could have drawn direct inspiration from that very tale.

[@helohel5915]

Well, this even works with Frisk's slight backstory. A human trying to commit suicide by climbing up Mt Ebott.

[@randomcoloradan2878]

@@helohel5915 Well, it's Chara who we see in the intro and who Asriel says climbed the mountain for "not a very happy reason"

[@niku4154]

"Ent" basically means "away from something/ opposed to something" "(etwas) rücken" is a verb and means to move/ push something, for example Furniture. So Bergentrückung very literally describes something being moved/ passed into a Mountain from another place where it was before.

[@hackidreemurr]

Wow. I'm german and I always read it as "Bergen-Trückung" instead of "Berg-Entrückung". Wow. And I was so confused 😂😂

[@paddythelegend1671]

I always saw him destroying your Mercy button as a way of making it so you can't run away and also actually fight back so he doesn't feel as bad. But when I got my Mom to play the game (she really enjoyed it if your wondering) she got to this point and said something along the lines of "Oh... that's awful. He thinks he doesn't deserve to be spared" And I have to thank her for coming up with a much better conclusion than I did

[@dooterperson]

I think it's a bit of both in my opinion

[@itzyaboi4297]

I started to get my mom to play the game to and she isn't interested by video games, and even SHE liked it. I dont think anyone doesnt like undertale.

[@alwest4472]

I think it’s more of a “it’s just not an option” and him destroying it is more symbolism. And bringing him to his knees forces a dialogue between the 2 of you which ends in him realising sparing is an option, but it’s definitely a mercy, and humiliation, which is why it’s crumbly. And then that flower

While I do like the idea of "he doesn't think he deserves mercy", I think he's trying to force your hand. With both of you fighting each other, someone WILL die and the victor will get what they wanted.

Out of all the characters in this game, Asgore gets the most respect from me. Poor dude lost his own son and adopted child. His wife left him. His people aren’t free. Yet his theme tells you that he’s still full of hope, to live good days again. By not counting Undyne, this man possibly has the most determination.

[@Pizza_Is_Cool]

When you first approach Asgore, he looks so shocked. Undyne must have done most of the work gathering the human souls. She knows he's just a wimp with a big heart, despite his strength. He never expected you to come through there and never wanted you to. Easiest for him was to have another nameless human to lay to rest. Not have to talk to them, not have to learn who they are or what they want. Another poor unknown soul. But then you come into his garden and he has to face reality. He can't keep on with his wait-and-see plan for gathering the souls anymore. Even knowing that, he still is nothing but nice and polite. Downright friendly. He tries to comfort you. He genuinely cares about you, despite what he will have to do. No challenge, though. No rush to action. Your coming to the barrier is an eventuality and he doesn't want you to feel unhappy about reaching the end. You're free to go back and take care of whatever business you need to, you can come and go at any time. Only once you're ready does he accept what must be done, but it is with a heart much heavier than his spear, heavier than he can bear. He can't even look you in the eyes as he attacks.

[@azazel831]

+SegmentedHero As good as it sounds...explain to me the coffin withy your name on it right before his throne room?

[@necomata105]

+Der Translationist I think that is either Flowey's doing or Asgore just preparing for the inevitable.

[@azazel831]

I...highly doubt Flowey can build coffins, nor know Protagonist's name. As for Asgore, well, he must knew the protagonis at least so much to know his name, or else, the name couldnt be on the coffin. And I think the protagonist never tells the name to anyone...so...Either Asgore already is a god-like being, knowing everything and only held back knowing whats coming, or he is good at guessing. :b

[@azazel831]

+SegmentedHero I have to correct myself: I completely forgot that you actually dont choose your characters name at the beginning. Thats Frisk, no matter what. You actually choose Charas name, the human who fell down first. So I guess the coffin gets a pass. :b

[@Demonsul]

+metaXzero It's just memories being fed to you by Flowey to keep you going.

+metaXzero because he isn't talking to frisk, he is talking to the fallen human (the one you name).

it's a memory of some sort, of asgore talking to the fallen human (the one you name), not frisk. asgore only met frisk in the end.

[@Teknanam]

Demonsul Flowey turns against you right before you fight Sans. Yet you still get Asgore talking (outside spare death). lemonw In a Genocide Run, you are basically the Fallen Human. Flowey is even convinced of that.

[@officertom6751]

Fun fact: If you die to Asgore a few times, the dialogue actually changes when you try to talk to him. After dying to Asgore once, you will tell him that he killed you before. Asgore will reply by nodding sadly. After dying more times to him, Asgore will react slightly different by nodding grieveously and nodding pitifully respecively.

[@RealBasicHuh]

I'm still confused why he believes it when previous saves only give familiarity, which is an exception to flowey, the lone fact that asgore believed her means that he must've met with flowey, which flowey said in the genocide route.

[@owenbridgers]

Yeah that’s something I always felt like gets over looked. Like, How would Asgore realistically KNOW he’s killed you before?

[@MirrorHall_Clay]

The thing is, there were 6 other humans down there before you... he's killed most of them. He's probably heard some of them say it before, and given the whole timeline-shifting thing is known by Sans, and he's heavily implied to have worked with Alphys, it's not too hard to believe that Alphys has told Asgore about it.

Interestingly, Bergentrückung means three things: "King in the Mountain", referring to Asgore, "Mountain Rapture", referring to Asgore giving the monsters hope, or rapture could be about the ascension to Heaven in Christian belief, the analogy being Asgore leading them from the underground to the surface, rather than going to Heaven from Earth. Finally, Bergentrückung is also a story trope where the hero lays dormant until needed to save the day in some way. Asgore does nothing throughout Undertale, and essentially "wakes up" by making an appearance to kill you and give the monsters rapture. Thus, the Bergentrückung brings Bergentrückung via Bergentrückung.

The government probably dosed me with LSD. Fun fact: they did that around the 50's-70's, and when someone sued them because they committed a crime allegedly because the CIA dosed him, the CIA's argument was: "We DID dose civilians with LSD without consent, but you have no proof that we dosed YOU." These experiments went on for, like, 20 years and only stopped because they determined that LSD wasn't good for torture. So they started making their own drug for torture. They SAID they aren't doing experiments like this anymore, but why the FUCK should we believe them. P.S. You are on a watch list now. You're welcome.

Asgore, despite my love for Sans, Papyrus, Undyne, and everyone else from the Undertale cast, will always remain as my favorite character. A broken man who has lost everything dear to him and driven to do horrible things for the sake of his people. He is a hollow shell of his former self, so worn with such self loathing and depression for so many years that he believes himself to be unfit for Mercy of any kind. The man has gone through so much, all of which he does not deserve a single bit of, and has done things that are absolutely heartbreaking to think about when you consider just how gentle and kind-hearted he truly is.

What still sticks with me is how, if it's your first run and you're playing pacifist, you'll get here and _have no idea how to fight._ You might have seen the fight bar once like eight hours ago. You don't know how the timing works. You might even still be waving around a damn stick. Your physical relationship with the game suddenly aligns with your narrative relationship with Asgore, and your helplessness as a player flows back to emphasize just how utterly overwhelming and unfair this is. You're just some innocent kid, being forced to fight the King of Monsters. You feel it mechanically. He feels it, too. It's an incredible piece of game design, anticipating the player's experience (or lack thereof) and using it to amplify a tragedy in a totally natural and organic way. For my money, it's the best fight in the game and one of the best designed boss battles of all time.

[@lpfan4491]

[@andres201292]

I know Asgore did horrible things and that many hate him for it, for me he is one of my favorite characters in the whole game with Papyrus, I can only feel respect for breaking the mercy button, because he knows that he does not deserve mercy, he has taken a path in which he believes he can help his people, but the weight of his actions is too much to the point that he cannot even look you in the face when you fight him, attacking you blindly because he does not want to see what he is going to do... that shit is deep. It reminds me of the moment when the Joker tells Batman in the killing joke that he does not deserve help because he has already gone too far in his madness and there is no turning back, there is no mercy for that, he does not deserve it.

Bergentrückung is the German word for the “King in the Mountain” trope, which describes a king or hero that was rumored to have died but will return to save their people, like King Arthur. Asgore is an interesting twist on this because while he is literally a king under a mountain, he’s still doing the waiting, and he has to kill the protagonist to save his people.

I often hear people saying this song is better than Megalovania, but in my opinion, they shouldn't even be compared in the first place. I don't think either is better or worse, because they have completely different feels to them. In Asgore's theme, there's a sense of uncertainty, and the feeling that nothing is as it should. Here, we have two individuals striving for peace, but their circumstances force them to fight anyway. Asgore wants to have tea and talk, but feels he must put his kingdoms freedom first. The human just wants to leave the underground, but is forced to fight for their survival. Meanwhile, in Megalovania, while the song is very intense, there's also a noticeable sense of inevitable futility, especially during the longer sections of the track. Sans isn't trying to defeat the human, he's trying to outlast them. No matter how Sans kills them, nor how many times he succeeds, they can always come back and try again. Sans is seemingly aware of this fact, and knows it's only a matter of time before he's killed, and the world is destroyed.

+Jonah Adkins You know what the saddest thing about all this? You CANT spare him. Literally. If you killed Flowey in previous playthrough - too bad. After his family speech Asgore puts his pink glasses aside, tells you that it is impossible, then he tells you to take his soul, and find a way to free his people from beyond Underworld. And dies. Only after that Flowey returns to tell you that he killed him first time just to mess with you, and he had known that this is how your showdown with Asgore will end, regardless of his interruptions. I was legdropped right in the feels all over again.

[@Mr._Sherwood]

Certified bop. You're faced with a man who has lost nearly everything, and even though he forces you to fight him head-on, it's clear he doesn't want to. He's forcing himself to fight as well, convinced that what he's doing, something he knows is wrong, is necessary for the good of his people, even if he feels guilt for what he's done to the point of preventing you from letting him off easy. And it's up to you to bring him to his senses. I saw on the subreddit recently that it'd be real cool if his name was always yellow, signifying that if not for him destroying the mercy option and preventing you from sparing him, he'd fold the instant you hit spare. He's too nice, his hesitance from your attempts to tell him to stop and refusal to fight you until you're good and ready, letting you come to him first already infers that, and that would help show that further. I'd argue that it's the best boss in the game if not for the houseplant immediately fucking with the entire game shortly afterwards and stealing the show. Which is a shame, because Asgore himself is a stellar, climactic conclusion to the game. Even if it isn't the real ending.
