Asgore has fought six other humans and sucessfully bottled their SOULs, so there should be no reason why ours lamely shatters at his hand unless something is different with the formula.

.

At the end of TP, the flavor text says that we struggle, struggle, can't move our body, struggle - we are without a physical form for this battle, and thus re-fuse. This may mean that Frisk can be true to their SOUL's core trait as the player (and Chara) manipulate the physical form. Chara has no ability to enter Frisk's SOUL unless the player hands it over. First point, where's the evidence that Chara's awakened in TP?

Second point, welp, it shattered regardless.

Third point, since when did the player hands Frisk's soul over to Chara? Furthermore, we can't move our body in the second phase, while the heart can already re-fused in the first phase.

Also, I noticed the difference of the different ways of "determination" but what does it have to do with here?
