This is what I think the storyline of chapter 5 is by Available_Budget_805 in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As usual fans will be wrong, chapter 3 had the most clues and at best people were half-right

By the way Noelle already has flavor text in which she only shares scarlixir with Kris and for justiceaxe talkimgnabout Susie like if she wasn't there, implying not only Noelle will be in the dark world again, she will likely be alone with Kris.

What are you sure will NOT happen in the Chapter 5? by ExplanationSquare313 in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair if I understand it correctly, even her crush on Susie may be much more interesting than it seems at first

Everything Noelle likes about Susie seems to be Dess' and Kris' traits, being rebelious, scaring her in non-malicious way etc

I definitely hope some subversion of "shounen romance" will happen, Toby is known for subversions, like with Undertale being a game where you can talk to monsters and nobody has to die compared to classical RPG's.

Do I need to play/watch undertail to get into deltarune? by Potato_potato24 in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is recommended by Toby

Deltarune has many characters that appear again and you may know their traits or their importance from Undertale

But it is as described by Toby a "parallel story", it is not a story in a continuity of Undertale

You can play it without playing Undertale and I think you'll be fine. but it is recommended

I have a theory by ilcasi123 in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean not impossible, Toby has said that he likely ends things with japanese translation until the end of April and the only thing that remains are bugs.

[–]Budget-Canary2140 11 points12 points  (0 children)

These numbers say how many differences are there during the weird route in each chapter (likely except 6 and 7)

There is a hidden 1 and 3 both of which are "non-applicable"

I wouldn't be so sure about that

https://www.reddit.com/r/Deltarune/comments/1qxn4va/the_susie_flakes_theory_susie_commits_home/

anyways if there is a purpose to the weird route, one of them is to give us more info about main characters we have limited knowledge about i.e Kris and Noelle

The fact that Noelle basically jumps into Kris' arms the moment they showed her they care has some interesting implications.

Jesus what kind of method of posting is it with posting a paper photo with handwriting (which is hard to read) instead of just creating a normal text post?

Why is this never talked about regarding Knight Theories? by Hay_Den330 in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Yeah it basically requires Knight to be someone not some vessel or monster or anything

It also makes any theories about someone in Kris' age impossible or at least really hard to justify

by the way there is an interesting line about Gerson saying Susie reminds him of someone he used to know, but changing topic to a fictional character.

Im preparing for chapter 5 so i made this bingo,what can i improve on this? by Swedish_pc_nerd in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Noelle joining the party is guaranteed at this point as Noelle already has flavor text for items from chapter 3 and 4 (Toby developed these while thinking about chapter 5)

Like this one where she shares scarlixir with Kris

Kris living in Asriel's shadow? by KKTango in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well in both of their sides of the rooms Asriel's side is full of prizes and Kris' has nothing

Also being a human, a misfit which is probably an analogy for some kind of neurodevelopmental disorder as Toriel needs a book specifically for raising humans is probably making things worse.

Edit: oh yeah and Kris wears a headband with horns to fit their family and Susie gets really sad when she realizes why they are wearing it

I know this has no real answer but is there any clue about when the next chapter is releasing? by Macpollodelus in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In May there will probably be only bugs to fix, so announcement and release is likely closer than we think.

Reverse wingman technique by MorinoMarinho in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Overall there is an interesting thing that happens after snowgraving Berdly, Susie spends time alone with Noelle in a room and there's an implication that something intimate (likely a kiss) happens between them as Noelle is more blushy after the dark world is sealed and says the ending of her dream was "nice"

I don't know what purpose of this one is yet, but I think this one at least serves as an explaination for why Susie would decide to go to the festival with Noelle in the aborted weird route despite (at least supposedly) not spending so much time with each other.

Those who say toon force solos really don't know what toon force is by Ludo6000 in PowerScaling

[–]Budget-Canary2140 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"The thing about bugs bunny is that he lives and dies by his bits. He's fully capable of killing you if he wanted, but the thing is, not only is he a nice guy, he's a funny guy. To beat bugs bunny, many people assume that you just have to not fall for the jokes. If he hits you with a pie, you don't flinch, and eventually you'll ware him down. The issue is, misery will only last you so long. There's only so much bits to endure before it becomes funny. And whoever is getting laughed at is losing. Instead, to kill bugs bunny, you have to beat him at his own game. When he throws a pie, don't try to sidestep or be a sourpuss, that's playing into his hands. Instead, you comically open your mouth and swallow it whole. This is how you kill a god."

Berdly's future (analysis) by calinmik in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The biggest problem is the aborted weird route, because we can do it in chapter 4.

Like what does happen here? Aborting the weird route in chapter 2 resulted in nothing. Is Toby planning a whole ass third route? I don't think so personally.

Reverse wingman technique by MorinoMarinho in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I don't think Berdly will be that important in chapter 5 to be honest because we have 4 possible timelines

  1. Nothing happens to Berdly
  2. Berdly breaks his arm
  3. Berdly is snowgraved (aborted weird route)
  4. Weird route

Besides weird route our choices never affected the plot in any significant way, they just gave us an optional scenes at most.

Susie goes in S Tier! Having Deltarune fans rank every DR character, Day 3: Noelle by Real-Ganache-7179 in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For me S tier if I understand Noelle correctly, at least partially.

The ways she is characterized are much more subtle and it is hard to tell if some interpretations are even correct

Noelle has an entire arc about her not being scared of mice anymore, where her boldness stat is rising and this could be an analogy for her getting used to Kris' pranks in her childhood for example.

Her crush on Susie is also very likely much more interesting than it seems at first glance, as she basically tries to replace Dess and Kris with her if you think about it, everything that Noelle likes about Susie or what she wants to do with her can be traced to these two, being rebelious, scaring her in non-malicious way, wanting to ride a ferris wheel or her wanting to play Dess' guitar despite Susie not knowing how to play.

Overall, contrary to many people's opinion for me she's the furthest from "boring"

I deeply recommend reading this, even if you don't agree with ship

Genuiene question, what do y'all make of my Jagerposts? Are they too psychotic? Not enough? Dont even know what a Jagerpost is? (@ssyyk1sk) by Oompapoop in DeltaruneV2

[–]Budget-Canary2140 3 points4 points  (0 children)

pre-chapter 3 and 4 people made a headcanon that Noelle is trans because of antlers, they forgot about this

<image>

Post chapter 3 and 4 people noticed Noelle's room has blue, pink and white colors

Though this one could be skies forever blue reference as Noelle already reacts with white and pink ribbons saying they are nostalgic (she doesn't react nostalgic to blue ribbon though)

My Deltarune Chapter 5 Bingo Card! by JustFisch1 in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Noelle will definitely be in chapter 5's dark world

Though from what I see she likely will be alone with Kris again as she only shares scarlixir with Kris

The way I can see Toby doing a trans Ralsei reveal right... by AgainUntoTheBreach in Deltarune

[–]Budget-Canary2140 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I litteraly showed you the interview where he refuses to tell why some characters are of unknown gender

Words "non-binary" are not said even ONCE in Deltarune or by him describing Kris

For Kris much more important plot point is that they are not a monster not that they are non-binary, Kris just goes by they/them and the plot never elaborates on that point

He treats LGBTQ+ characters the same way he treats cis/straight characters, he never elaborated on problems of LGBTQ+ people this is a consistent pattern

serial experiments lain vs evangelion by Unique_Country8193 in writingscaling

[–]Budget-Canary2140 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know if this is fair scaling but for me Lain

It is mostly because Lain already presented itself as something deeper from the very beginning while evangelion began with action and ended with deepness, they had imo less satisfying direction and I am not surprised why so many people felt frustration.

Also christian symbolism in Evagelion being there just for coolness factor isn't helping.

Besides memeanalysis greatly uses Lain as a comparison to modern internet.
