Here’s how I imagine the interaction between Toriel and Asgore went down:

T: I’ve got the human soul

A: Excellent. Only six to go

T: What do you mean six to go? You only need one to pass through

A: Do you not understand me? I don’t want to merely pass through the barrier. I want to destroy it! I want to make the humans pay for what they’ve taken away from us!

(The two fight over the soul in the jar. Asgore wins)

A: Stay back or I’ll absorb the soul!

(It’s this moment that Toriel officially leaves Asgore for good)

The only question is, why didn’t Toriel take the soul from the next human that passed through?
