Yeah, he gets REALLY upset in the snow grave route when he can’t tell Kris about what Susie and Noelle are doing. And then when Susie walks he practically begs her to tell him what happened in there. I don’t think he’s evil, but he’s most definitely hiding things.
Well I don’t he’s evil, but instead something living created from Kris’s mind. Think about it, what if Kris created the Dark World in the closet in order to have his brother back while he’s at college? It could explain what we saw at the end of chapter 2 with Kris opening the dark fountain in his house
Their friendship is so cute. I can imagine them both having secrets that only they know about, like Noelle tells Ralsei about her feelings about her crush on Susie and Ralsei tells her secrets about Susie and they both have inside jokes and start giggling about random things. SO CUTE!! MY TWO FAVORITE CHARACTERS HAVING A FRIENDSHIP TOGETHER!!
its rare to have a fellow person who doesn't think Ralsei is a secret twist villain or straight up hate him for no reason. I don't understand why they think that, I mean why would toby make a plushie of a villain (Spamton doesn't count nor he is not a villain)
That implication of being watched at the end is absolutely horrifying, considering the ending to Chapter 2... Not gonna spoil it for those who haven't seen, but having started the Soulless Run in Undertale recently, I've had some nerves about Deltarune that I can't. quite. shake.....
@@ATAKwaCN Nono, not the Genocide Route. I already did that and it absolutely annihilated me emotionally. I failed to push through Megalovania out of empathy for Sans, but took the option to fight him instead of sparing. Afterwards, I deleted my entire game, save data and all, then upon re-downloading it to try to play through it passively, my letters began to melt upon naming myself. THAT's the Soulless Run, however I decided to never finish it and instead invested all my money into Dogecoin rather than finishing off Asgore since there was absolutely NO reason whatsoever for me to do that, other than morbid curiosity. But when I say Soulless Run, THAT'S what I mean. Not Genocide, but a full hard reset OF the Genocide Run that haunted me even BEYOND having erased every ounce of my save data, game and all...
@@BetterDayz55 Ah okay. Also, "My letters began to melt upon naming myself" Do you mean like in your mind, like they had no consequence, or do you mean they LITTERLY melted on screen?
@@ATAKwaCN Nono, I mean that upon having ERASED ALL OF MY SAVE DATA FROM XBOX, CLOUD DATA AND ALL, when I came back to name myself something new, as I was chatting with my sister on Discord, my letters LITERALLY began melting, one by one, until they were nearly INDESTINGUISHABLE from one another, and that was genuinely terrifying, yet inspiring since melting in Undertale is directly related to sheer, unbridled Determination. It's as if I was so determined to NOT end in Genocide, the game called me OUT for it...
great animation! that was a really cute and funny scene, I hope we get more ralsei and Noelle dialogue in the game because so far it just seems like every character apart from Kris , Susie and lancer completely ignores ralsei's existence for some reason. and the turning point with ralsei was *chilling* too, same vibes as when he snapped at berdly at the end of chapter 2. great animation, it also looks very natural and like its straight out of the game, the cooking and dancing bits were the best parts lmao, great job!
King also notices him when he is healed, enemies can target Ralsei. Jevil even does it all the time. Also, when Susie yeets Spamton NEO away, he says "KRIS, YOU GOT FRIENDS!?", plural, which means he doesn't only notice Susie. Also, some minor characters notice him as well, for example, Smith Malius massages him too instead of just Kris and Susie; also, the coat hanger guy holds Ralsei's hat and talks to him about it. And Ralsei tea exists too, meaning that Addison knows he's there as well.
@@CatWithALime Then Queen uses the Mario World end of level "closure" sound effect. I'm not kidding when I say of Nintendo-related sound effects and references in Deltarune, there's plenty of stuff like that. Such as the K Round from Chapter 1 using the Mario "size change" sound effect. For example
Do you guys know what this means? Ralsei tea no longer tastes like water! Ralsei Tea: Heal’s 110 HP -(Noelle) “It’s warm and sweet! It tastes like marshmallows! But, it’s kind of bitter if I drink too much…” Ralsei’s tea tastes sweet, calming, warm, and has a keen taste of apple, and strawberries, while also somehow tasting like marshmallows, and colorful fruits. Yet somehow, it contains a strange aftertaste, that seems bitter for a while that seems like eternity, before becoming a taste of understanding and familiarity. It’s a reminder of how you must be aware of your shortcomings, and your own strengths before committing to another sip of joy, and bliss. It tastes delicious, however it is a grim reminder of the foreboding present when drinken by someone like Noelle.
@@rich_gamer0667 Judging by how he reacted when Berdly tried opening a fountain. He would be furious once he finds out about the Snowgrave incident. I imagine in chapter 4, Once Kris gets in the center of castle town, He’ll order the Ruddin Rangers to do the bullet pattern circle, then interrogate them.
This looks near perfect, instead of going for a drastic graphical design change, you made it look like it was actually a real cutscene in the game. You're very talented in replicating the feeling of the game. Both characters in this animation are on point with their personalities ingame. And, Ralsei being self-aware of the player's actions, which seems in character for him. Why else would Ralsei two chapters in a row, try to get our view of what's going on, away from Kris so he can privately chat with them? Ralsei was also really dismissive of Kris's feelings ingame during the aftermath of the secret boss fight, until Susie stepped up to make sure Kris was okay. Which doesn't make sense for a normally peaceful and caring character like Ralsei, unless he's aware the player can delete the save file he and everyone else exists in. I have to say again, amazing work on this animation. The audio placement, the personalities of both Ralsei and Noelle, the writing, it's all how Toby would handle a scene like this. You've done a very great job at replicating all that, while creating your own fake cutscene of the game for this video animation. It's a shame it took me 10 months to find this animation for perhaps the first time. You have a high talent for making stuff like this. Hopefully in a future chapter, we have Noelle return as a party member, and learns that her experiences from chapter 2, was not a dream. It'd make her very happy to know Susie actually did ride the ferris wheel with her. Though, as a parallel for the "Weird Route", if she learned the events of chapter 2 actually happened when the player manipulated her to do such unspeakable acts, it'd break her horribly. I dunno if she learning Susie lied to her to protect her, that she'd take it well or not. I'm not as good as you on understanding how these characters think and work. I know some things about Noelle, but not enough to the point to replicating how she was written while in the Dark World, even though her pre-Cyber World mindset is very similar to how my mind works. Getting timid over troublesome situations that most would see as something some people would see as trivial to deal with, unable to speak up for self, she's just like me in those ways. I can't think of a good way to end this comment, so, I'll end it, since I'm bad at writing closing points of my messages
This is so cool! Also, interestingly, in a scrapped scene in the acid tunnel of love, Ralsei has a bit of dialogue about Noelle! He says, "She's a nice girl, isn't she? Even though she doesn't understand it, it seems she is already strong at this world's magic. I believe she can control the 'ICE' element. ...Kris, if you ask her nicely, maybe she'll make you a popsicle! Haha!"
Noelle deserves to know that the events in the Cyber World was not a dream. Even though Susie lied to her to protect her. It'd make Noelle so happy to know she spent so much time with the girl she loves most: Susie. However, she'll be in an utter wreck if she learned the events of the "Weird Route" actually happened
I feel like, Ralsei being a darkner alongside Susie and Kris, with Kris barley talking at all or saying or making people do disturbing things (HOWEVER this may just be the player controlling them, proceed comes to mind), and Susie kind of controlling Ralsei with what she wants to do, almost overshadowing him with her demeanor. Ralsei has no right to be this sweet or kind or caring to anyone, and what he needs is a true friend that appreciates him. I feel like this video perfectly (and wonderfully) represents how Noelle could be perfect for this! Ralsei is someone who won’t try to assume what Noelle wants and make her do what he wants to do, and Noelle’s the same way, being a lightner also, she could spend meaningful and endearing time with Ralsei like no other character we know! Time that both of them would enjoy and appreciate, giving Ralsei a bit of a break from having to (sometimes in vain) try to guide Susie and Kris to save the darkners without getting anyone hurt and seal the dark fountains. It would also give Noelle a bit of a break as well, giving her some downtime with Berdly’s sometimes toxic friendship, as he always assumes what she wants (like Queen), and always asserting himself over her by being ‘smarter than everyone’, as well as a break from her homelife, which we don’t know much about, but from what Noelle says about it just being her and her mom, it doesn’t sound like she’s enjoying it. Ralsei could be exactly the friend Noelle needs, and vice-versa! This was portrayed wonderfully in the video, I loved the interaction, and you did an amazing job! (All this said, Ralsei making Noelle promise not to use that spell does make sense, although definitely a little overboard for him, that’s something that’s definitely gonna hinder their hope of friendship.)
My headcanon is that this is happening while moments before Kris opens the fountain, and/or during the event of the fountain being opened. The former seems more reasonable, as some people have the conjecture that Ralsei has a "fountain-sense", and that's why he knew about the fountain in Ch2. The latter would imply Noelle is oblivious to a fountain being open at the Dreemur's house, and Ralsei not sensing its energy
Huh, that fountain-sense idea makes sense and would be interesting Like imagine during ch3 Ralsei at some point stops what he's doing and looks extremely worried before saying something along the lines of "These fountains are opening faster than we can seal them... We should hurry."
Noelle: “Ralsei, you’re freaking me out!” Ralsei: “Because this isn’t a matter to be taken lightly.” Ralsei: *”You’re dangerous.”* Ralsei: *”Remember that.”* Ralsei’s serious glasses disappear. Face goes back to normal Ralsei: “That’s all...” Ralsei: “Do you understand?” Noelle: “I...” Noelle: “...” Noelle: “Are you afraid of me? Ralsei: “...!” Ralsei: ... Ralsei: *sigh* I got too tense. Ralsei: “It’s alright. You didn’t do anything wrong. I just needed to inform you of that.” Ralsei: “I am only concerned.” Noelle: ...Of what?” Ralsei: “...” Ralsei smiles Ralsei: *” You’ve do have the heart of an angel...”* Ralsei: “I trust you.” Noelle: ...
You know, it’s this that made me realize, has Ralsei ever interacted with Noelle or Berdly? I don’t think he has. It’s very interesting now that I think about it, for someone who assumingely looks very much like Asriel he didn’t get any attention from either of them. Heck, even if we assume Asriel didn’t actually look like Ralsei in anyway for some reason the fact that what looks like a goat monster that you have never seen before walking around the kid whose parents ARE goats would raise some suspicions. The likely answer is that it’s just something Toby didn’t wanna account for. Perhaps he felt it would be unnecessary and pointless filler to include Berdly or Noelle freaking out about Ralsei, idk. Still interesting to think about. Also side note, I like how this implies that even if you don’t do the Weird route, it still ends up with Noelle going crazy with the whole ‘procedure’ thing. Really ties in the whole ‘all chapters lead to the same ending’ ordeal.
I think the only time Noelle address Ralsei in sort of way is when she compares him with "someone" in that scene were Ralsei and Susie are eating cotton candy
Ralsei tea now heals 90 hp!! It tastes like marshmallows but... It has some type of, unknown flavor, like... If it had a secret ingredient,like something hiding...? Maybe spices? Noelle tea now heals 70 hp!!! It tastes like cinnamon but for some reason the aftertaste its just water like... its too boring
Imagine having someone they found a small weapon, jealous they don’t have the cool spears or swords their friends have and they pull out a fucking gun. This is how Ralsei was feeling
I have a theory that if we choose the normal path noelle and berdly in chapter 4 will join us in the dark world and if we choose Snowgrave Noelle will be afraid of kris and berdly isnt death but severly ill and will remain in the hospital for the rest of the game but will be very very scared of noelle and kris
Noelle is somehow, the strongest character in DELTARUNE, She has a spell that can be cast much easily than Susie, and deals quite a bit of damage. Then here heal prayer is just better and her pacification spell? Also an upgraded version of the regular pacify, she can make multiple enemies sleep with one turn. Not to mention her ACTs, they are nearly as good as Kris' ACTs. So, uhh Noelle is undoubtedly the strongest character in terms of gameplay. Well if you take MAGIC into account that is. Noelle is probably this good with magic because she is a very intelligent monster, so by that order, either Susie or Catti should be the Strongest in terms of raw strength, and since Jockington is liked by many, he might have better ACTs then Kris? That makes me wonder, is Kris _The_ balance? Are they the one that connects everyone?
