Sans may be deep, but 99% of his comics are just him saying a pun and Papyrus getting mad, which isn't even accurate to begin with because he only says 2 puns in the entire game, and Papy only gets mad because Sans isn't paying attention to his sentry duty. Personally, I like Chara more than Sans. Sans is a deep character and I can understand a lot of the fanbase liking him. I do agree that a character who knows of time-travelers and hides depression with comic relief is a good one, but I get tired of constantly seeing a comic dub of Sans: Pun and Papyrus: Rage. And seeing how much of the genocide route is overshadowed by Megalovania just makes me want to facepalm repeatedly. Come on, people. Flowey isn't just a laughing, kill hungry maniac who wants nothing more than death. He only went that path because he got tired of seeing pacifist endings after so many resets. Do you know what songs are subjectively better than Megalovania? Your Best Nightmare, ASGORE, BAATH, Reunited, you name it. Sans is a good character, but the fanbase pays way too much attention to him, ignoring the many other great characters such as Alphys, Chara, and Asgore. I'll admit other characters like Toriel or Mettaton aren't that much overshadowed, but that's only because they were shipped with the skeleton brothers for whatever reason.
