Is Asriel The Best? wrote:

I'm not really sure what the big deal about Sans is either. Every other main character in the game has complex emotional issues and actual depth, while Sans.. . There's no real explanation to why he feels the way he feels, or why he does the things he does, just that he is that way.

I had a long explaination about why I feel like there's enough evidence in the game to say he's actually clinically depressed, EXACTLY why he's depressed, and why he's so lazy. But then I forgot to log on to wikia before I clicked reply. Ah well, this probably wasn't the place for it anyways.

Skip to the bottom for answer.

I really like Asgore's theme, but he isn't a character we see for most of the game. Plus, it's a little wierd how he shows you the souls he stole from six people before he fights you. I'm sure people will ask "Why not Toriel?" Well, she ALSO isn't there for most of the game, and just hopes that someone she never met will somehow magically keep a promise to ensure your safety.

So, I'd say Sans and Papyrus. Sure, they don't go through character growth, but do they really need to? The game isn't about them. The game isn't even that long. Papyrus will keep in touch with you no matter how far you go, if you've got a way to contact him. Sans is always around, no matter how far you go or what you do. They really feel like friends who will stick by you, and won't forget about you no matter which ending you get. Sorry if that explaination sucks, but as I said, my well-thought response was eaten.

Tl;Dr: Skelebros. Why choose one?
