Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.
I feel like we came as close as we could, what with you finding him with the flowers in his goat-boy-form after the end. He's at peace now, which is a good thing to be.
also, i was pretty sure that what greets you when you boot the game back up heavily implies that he is stuck as flowey again. granted, the exact relationship between the two is kinda ambiguous but
not being able to really save asriel left me so sad that i am now engaging in fan content to ameliorate that
which basically means that hell has frozen over
I mean, you didn't undo the damage done, but you did save him.
Only temporarily.
I can easily imagine that Alphys, or her successor as Royal Scientist, eventually finds a way to undo it. But everything in canon suggests it's permanent, especially all the amalgamations reintegrating with society instead of being de-amalgamated.

If nothing else, the game made me do a complete 180 on a character who I hated upon being introduced to them, and that's not something that happens often.
I mean it more in a spiritual saving then anything else, but even then, you see that when Flowey begs you not to restart the entire world, and admits that he can't go back to being a villain with his memories.

I like to think that the scene where you walk around New Home and the monsters are telling you the tale of the two sons (the part that made me cry), that you're actually remembering all the random battles. The random battles when after you spare them, they tell you little snatches of the story.
Like in my head, that scene is a bunch of little flashbacks over all the underworld, in every spot, like a movie.
i still need to finish. i'm on mettaton ex right now
Nearly there! :P
Anyway, couple of random thoughts and conjecture/skulguns: (True Pacifist spoilers) Frisk is an orphan. At no point are her parents mentioned, and even in the ending, the choices are "Stay with goatmom and skeledad" or "I have things to do." Maybe they got lost on Mt. Ebott and she went looking for them? I unno.
Genocide spoilers: How much of the run is Frisk, and how much of it is The Fallen taking control? The possession is already well underway the time you reach Toriel's house. Is Frisk just trapped in her own mind, trying to stop the First Child from being a murderous maniac?

Chara says gaining EXP and LV brought you closer to them, my guess is that it's a gradual process of control
Took a break to get food, but I just passed the part where you go on a date with Papyrus and Sans tells you about how someone might be using an Echo Flower to mess with his brother's head.
I know I haven't even been through the majority of it but this game's already fit itself nicely into my role of "Favorite JRPG/JRPG Offshoot." The writing is clever, the characters are delightful and the fact that it doesn't really force you into going down any particular path is quite clever. I don't regret my purchase at all.
on the bridge seed puzzle section in Waterfall, if you place the seeds to the bottom right there's a room with a bench where there's an abandoned quiche under it

this is one of my favorite subplots of undertale because (end game spoilers I guess) even though all that really comes of it is like one line in the true pacifist ending, right before flowey assimilates everyone...the implication that flowey picked papyrus of all people to manipulate suggests that he spent the entire game offscreen having some really frustrating conversations

coincidence? i think not

I found aspects of asriel's story hit maybe a little too close to home
