Yeah!!! :DDD Chara and Asriel are my favorite characters, so seeing us get a lil bittersweet thing abt them and Asriel is rly sweet ;w; The fact their favorite number is 9 and the reason for it is so sad, like-it's their favorite number cause if they had the highest number they wouldn't be able to be hurt ever again, and noone else will be able to be hurt either QvQQ

[@betabeef4115]

23:27 This line specifically makes me think this is a poem by Asriel referencing Chara. “Scary Face” and the connections to dealing 9999 damaged in from them in Geno. So now we have a random tidbit, Chara’s favourite number is 9, neat.

[@Slenderquil]

This observation here really fills in the blanks for me. Chara really loves going to the max. Loves the highest number, fills their glass to the max. It fits their completionist theme really well. Always have to get the most out of whatever they're doing. No wonder you have to grind in Geno, Chara would do the same.

[@AllanGuiHaya70]

Also the "flowers we pick and times we laugh" makes it pretty obvious it's Asriel!

What's really interesting is that Power of SPAMTON not only uses a different leitmotif from THE WORLD REVOLVING (the part that's also in Dialtone), but it has Don't Forget, implying Spamton's theme was supposed to have Don't Forget like Jevil's Power of SPAMTON is just peak

I've listened that themes and it's really *_BRILLIANT_* . "Power of" themes is one of the best themes for me now. (I'll pick "Power of SPAMTON" (not old version) theme as the one of the best. 🌟👍) And I agree with you about talking "Don't Forget" leitmotif in "Power of SPAMTON". It makes sense. I think "Don't Forget" theme suits Spamton, too. He doesn't really like to be forgotten. Also, "Power of SPAMTON" theme is with "THE WORLD REVOLVING" theme (freedom leitmotif) and "Don't Forget" theme, so I think it's a perfect harmony for that theme. And the interesting thing is, in the "THE WORLD REVOLVING" theme, the "Don't Forget" theme" was played in the original note, but in the "Power of SPAMTON" theme, the "Don't Forget" theme" was played more on a minor note. I want to point out that, too.

2:15 this whole plot line seems to be referring to Chara

[@eNCy.]

​​@@johay899 could be true, considering The final letter is pretty obviously either from Asriel to Chara, or from Chara to Asriel.

[@feliciaroseantonia]

Ngl i personally interpreted this as Toby subtly implying he knows about the "Papyrus is The Knight" theory & how popular it is & so he wanted to jokingly reference it lol (AND maybe even foreshadow it being canon. Who knows lol, i could go either way as to whether or not i think its going to end up being canon idk)

[@chaotixthefox]

When Sans puts his spin on it, it's just Undertale Papyrus. Where he is technically a villain trying to capture Frisk, but is actually a good guy with no harmful intentions.

8:00 Fun fact, it said "it feels like I'm strapped to a chair with Your mom just out of my reach." because I put my favourite food when signing up for the newsletter as "Your mom"

[@enemykiller30]

Props to Toriel for giving us a copy of her head for those adorable mittens! Very cute stuff

[@aaronokemaysim7310]

Feels so close, I almost want to say we might see it in just 3-5 months. Can't wait!!!

[@HeavenlyGinger]

4:12 I am Toriel, caretaker of the Oven.

[@MadamLava094]

Wonderful newsletter, sidenote I caught myself rocking in my chair in the same way you were at the same time in the video LOL

[@xxblackkzoruaxx5971]

toby said my NAME and FAVORITE FOOD in the newsletter i didnt know he could do that

[@bcar2263]

MORE evidence for Oblivion Theory with that letter!! If you didn't know, Chara is meta-textually associated with 9s because they represent the absolute limit (of RPG stats, media content, cups of water, etc). I hope this newsletter will help more fans see this connection!

[@Jua2073]

2:00 Translation Sans: so 7 8 9? Papyrus: SANS!!!

[@Dust_sans-x2g]

I can’t believe our Undertale is now 9year old 😭

[@johay899]

Just wait 11 more more years and it’ll officially be even older

[@Bigolinhas]

LMAOO 😭 IM BRAZILIAN

[@Doublemow20]

Crazy how its already been 9 years already, can't wait for the next deltarune chapters! Ive only been in the undertale community for atleast 2 and a half years now and it is still one of my favorite games so far

[@gekko9007]

The baking mitt is so cute!

[@event-keystrim213]

12:50 I thought she had a whip in reference to Franziska von Karma from "ace attorney", like how she is all about perfection and all

[@Nexis_vr]

9:07 is very simple. He can’t see the colour black. Duh

[@duckingtonduckster]

wow such a good newsletter

this video was made 40 seconds ago 🤓☝️

its like their in some king of "Console Ports, Japanese Version, and Other Stuff" stage of development

[@Lilit_1234]

3:09 Maybe i'm reading to deep into this part but this kinda feels like it's in some way referencing Papyrus knight theory probably not that but still

[@cherryparadox]

Finished reading the whole newsletter and all I have to say is : If I don’t make pancakes pie my status as Truck Freak is OVER!!! So I’m gonna make some tomorrow since it’s too late for pancakes (Blueberry) pie rn

[@Tom-101]

Omg the 999s being genocide damage completely went over my head that makes SENSE. Also just realised because of that that the last letter is from Asriel about Chara...

[@tobydabox]

Toby acknowledged AUs, they're all canon now.

[@AndrewCunninghamFan]

Very exciting Shayy!. I love Toby Fox.

[@nigou2706]

5:41 Huh, what did you say, NAME!? "Yes, it's the DELTARUNE from Toriel's clothing! I always wanted to wear Toriel's clothing!" Hum... Thank you, truck-freak... You didn't need to say that though.

[@kovexplay]

This newsletter was so fun! 😁 I love that Toby actually aknowledged AUs in this one lol The concept arts are pretty interesting, the Queen looked kinda terryfying ngl, some sprites make her resemble the mythical medusa I have a question about the dog mug though- isn't it going to be annoying to clean? I love the idea but how well are you able to wash the little doggy? Anyways, in my eyes it seems like the next 2 chapters are going to release either at the very end of the year or pretty early in 2025

[@hi-ougidemonfang]

10:01 yeah that is a Kirby enemy. In specifically Kirby 64 it jumps out of the sand and ground to eat you. Like an ant lion adjacent monster that jumps. 17:29 another Kirby 64 reference? Adeleine is a painter in that game, who has the ability to paint things and they come to life and food she paints can be consumed. Though she might make her first appearance as Ada in Kirby’s dreamland 3 as a boss, with the same power set and general look.

[@Doobie-kx8fk]

Looking at that enemy I thought of Pactos from Dream Land 3 lol

[@sonicgamer178]

I'm IN LOVE with the unused music. Castle Town and Power of NEO are my favourites here!!

[@JoelTheParrot]

The way this seven eight nine joke just keeps going and continues to be so funny and make sense with the characters is astounding, Toby Fox truly has a talent for writing character-driven comedy WHICH IS WHAT I SAID AFTER PAPYRUS SPOKE IN BINARY (i translated it with an online tool, Sans's text can't really be made out but I think he said ñ and Papyrus said SANS!!) AND YET IT'S STILL GOING!!!?!? 8:49 we were robbed -sincerely, a bird 11:25 "I'm Everybody's Ex Wife" is pretty different from the final version where the implications have led theorists to suggest that she is supposed to represent everyone's mother figure. But what if she still IS Everybody's Ex Wife?

[@aegisxor]

Sans says "7 8 9", y'all kids don't know your binary numbers

[@doktoreutanazja3818]

My soul resonate with hopes and dreams of all human and monsters. Chapters 3&4 are sooo close.
