Pretty much the entire fandom either sees Frisk as the 100% pure goodness that can do no wrong, someone who started out good but was corrupted by Chara, or 100% evil-The TRUE villain of Undertale. But, the Neutral Route mote than likely fits in most nicely with canon:That or a Genocide Route initated by thinking monsters were the enemy because of the war between the two races. If someone went underground, totally convinced that all monsters are evil, they might do a Genocide Route just for that-Undyne's words being lies, with Sans just trying to find a reason to take your SOUL, or to defend the heartless monsters. (It's quite possible:I'm really surpised NOBODY made a fanfic based off of this idea-Where Frisk kills all the monsters NOT for the sake of killing, but for "justice"-As a paladin might smite all of the evil foes. Besides, it's a reason we might kill off the monsters, but then say no to erasing the world:We're pretty much trained to believe that these monsters are evil-Look at every other RPG, or all the stories about monsters.)

...Neutral's still the most reasonable choice to begin with, though. It's also what pretty much every TRUE blind playthrough follows (and by "true blind", I mean:The player isn't told about the fact there's pacifist ending. Which is actually pretty hard to come by, due to the massive fandom wanting everyone to take the Pacifist Route..), and therefore, the best way to represent the canon. And through that route, one learns more about the monsters-Pushing them to fo a Pacifist Run. (That or they realize that "Asgore will breach the surface world and destroy humanity", and then attempt a Genocide Run, as described above) exactly my point, hey maybe we can write one instead. i wanna make a AU in the future where frisk tries to make a prefect run
