So i have a theory regarding  Undertale.

First, the anomaly:

So i think the 'anomaly' that Sans mention is the Genocide player, and Sans is talking directly to the player for the whole battle. Why? Well, it's because the player are the one that messing up with videogame timelines, they're the one who have the SAVE power. not just Undertales, but they can use this power technically other videogames too. Every player-controled character can do a SAVE as long as the player controls them. However, the player can only go backwards as far until they come to the videogame universe(start the game). And there's also 'games' that have multiple endings, that can only be determined by the player. Undertale universe aware of the player and their SAVE power, and since they know their universe have multiple endings, the try to prevent them from geting Undertales 'bad ending'.

Second, Chara:

I think Chara is not evil at all. They're neutral. Hating humanity and try to free the monsters by killing a half dozen of humans to do it seem quiet between neutral-evil with good point, it's just a matter of prespective. And seeing her(my Charas headcanon is they're female) plan failed, the seeing there's another chance to free the monsters through Pacifist ending, Chara decide to become Frisks undergrond guide and become the flavor text. And when the monster's free, Chara decide to just stick with Frisk(and possibly taking daily turn with Frisk on who will possess the body for the day? Idk). But what about about the genocide run? Well, since she knew the playtrough won't end up as she plan, she decide to 'presuade' the player by pretending to be evil, guide the player towards the end of geno run, steals the LOVE power to destroy the timelines in hopes the player to regret doing the run, get Frisks soul, make the player do the pacifist run to redeem themself, and finally temporaly possess Frisk body to either scrible the pacifist ending photo so it looks like she's murdering everyone or to creep out the player while possessing Frisk in hopes the player will leave the Pacifist timeline and the game alone. Overall, Chara is not a genocidal psyco who try to destroy everthing.

Third, Gaster:

I haven't think of a theory regarding him other than the fact that HE IS NOT THE SKELEBROSES DAD OR A SKELETON OR AN EVIL SCIENTIST AT ALL FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!! i still thinking about his headcanons though.
