Is Asriel The Best? wrote: Frisk is certainly a guy to me. He’s is suppose to be a representation of you in the world of Undertale, so obviously since I'm a guy myself, Frisk would be the same. That’s the easy one.

Chara's a much more complicated story though. At first I always thought of Chara as a guy. When I first heard of their story with Asriel, I immediately projected myself onto them, just because they seem like a generally nice person. Boy oh boy was I wrong. We find out later  that Chara is pretty much (although debatably) demon spawn. Instantly, I related this to the fact that all women are evil hags, since I'm a sexist bastard. That was a joke, to be completely clear.

I honestly still don't understand why I started thinking of Chara as a girl as soon as they were revealed to be evil, and maybe at a certain point it is because of deep emotional trauma. Nah, that's dumb. I started to feel a little guilty about it (I’m really not a sexist bastard) so I went back to the guy thing for a bit, and then it started to just go from “him” to “her” randomly, which got really annoying to everyone else.

What finally convinced me of their gender really has nothing to do with Undertale. It was this song . Just wait bit for the lyrics to come in. This song is just so… literal, to Chara’s story, it’s kind of my headcanon now that she sung it to Asriel. Which brings me to my next link, . Someone saw the same thing I did in this song and actually made a little animation about it. This song helped me, not really understand so much as create, Chara’s backstory.  This is now a two part series, I just started to do some research and this got super interesting. My thought went a bit off topic, so here's the link to the rest. 

Heck no.

Chara is a guy, and Frisk is female.
