my nichijou x undertale au master post info tbupdated and also really long
average roleswap AU but combining a lot of the nichijou characters personalities with said character they're swapping with. more like a "fusion"? some roles I don't have concrete
Frisk/Chara are the same considering they're "outside" roles/parties, and more importantly I ran out of characters to feasibly and reasonably swap them with
Flowey is the little spinning sun thing (Kamakura?). It's the only thing with the similar "face-changey" bit
Sakurai takes the Toriel role. after losing her brother she distances herself from her fiance (here, they aren't married just yet, there's some "royal guard x royalty" shtick going on to match with the canon takasakurai workplace romance which probably screws with Undertale canon whatever I need to replay the game again fml) in whatever equivalent the ruins is here- it's probably not all that different...?
The Sans/Papyrus roles are taken by Yoshino and Mio respectively. makes the most sense considering their canon sibling relationship with each other. Yoshino is a raccoon, and Mio is a raccoon dog. funny wordplay.
their personalities are mostly the same here- though Mio is a lot more... angry? tense? Uptight? take Mio's anger issues in the anime and times it by 2, due to her sister's (now intensified because of the Sans role) lax nature and inability to take anything seriously (so it seems)...
feeling like she has to carry for her, it frustrates her that she's not technically part of the royal guard and some how she is. Or something. ..
Yuuko takes the Grillby role. Personality-wise it's a load of hoopla but rolewise it makes sense, as it gives her some way to get close to both Mio and Yoshino and also because I don't have anywhere else to reasonably put her. She's a fire salamander. Except also a frilled neck lizard, too. and then grillby's is like, a cute diner or something so I can put her on rollerskates. actually that's probably a really bad idea
Misato takes the Undyne role. this is also, the only drawing I have of her so far, because the idea of a Velociraptor with a gun is insane and I don't know how to top it. as a result, Monster Kid is replaced with Mihoshi, and instead her arms are like really short because she's a t-rex or something. as opposed to Monster Kid's devotion for Undyne Mihoshi is just looking out for her sister.
Here, the Royal Guard roles are mostly taken up by those in the Kendo Club- Greater Dog is instead Sasahara and his butler, the dog guards in Snowdin are taken up by some of the Igo Soccer Club (dogamy and dogaressa, heehee) and so the Dating Start bits aren't about Dating You but rather like, Please for the Love of God how do I get Sasahara I can sense the intense rizz coming off of you. Or something. also Gerson is the Assistant Instructor or something
catty and bratty are fecchan and weboshi, and I've always had the mental image of fecchan as a triceratops???
Additionally! As a result! The relationship between Undyne and Alphys is VERY different here considering Misato is also into guys or something and also Alphys is 8 years old here
the alphys and mettaton roles are taken by Hakase and Nano respectively. the royal scientists all have something going on here
whereas in canon the royal scientist lead is delegated to just one person (I think?) here the royal scientists were a group of researchers instead- Hakase and Nano are, more accurately, just looking over that spot because of an incident.
specifically, this research group consists of Hakase's parents, Sakamoto and Nakamura (who takes the other Royal Scientist role here). things go peachy for a while until the Gaster incident happens as well as the whole True Lab bit and the Royal Scientist family sort of implodes.
I'm not really sure about this part because I'm starting to interpolate a ton but I think it's cool at least?!
Mai takes the muffet role. This one, is also a little OOC but in all the swap AUs I've read, Muffet and Grillby are swapped, so, like, you know??? This one isn't very set in stone. Maybe instead of a bake sale she's got like a little art market with statues, or something. She looks like she's got 3 other heads until she steps off and it's revealed she's just sitting on top of the Oguri-Pyon-Chichimera. (think Marcille Scylla from Dungeon Meshi).
Finally! the asgore role, and the asriel role are taken by Takasaki and Makoto respectively. rolesiwse this makes sense, lorewise ... I don't know how to write this in... it's sort of the natural following events, anyways... all I have to say is that the golden flowers in the throne room would be replaced with bamboo, and would be a japanese-themed zen garden instead. Because Takasaki's bit is the little bamboo shoots.
