I cannot physically express how much I love the villains and heroes in Deltarune
Heroes - Diverse, smart, with differing ideas, but they still can get along. Their relationship is affected by outside characters, which is something I don’t really see that often. Ralsei - Beautiful, smart, too good for this world, and overall amazing.
Kris - Mysterious but not annoyingly so. Despite the fact that he doesn’t really talk, you get connected to his character.
Susie - That perfect balance of annoying but dangerous bully and bad villain. A character that had a perfect redemption arc.
Lancer - He’s a beautiful villain, and an amazing hero! Funny, going his own way, not changing himself for the sake of the team. He’s the complete opposite of Ralsei, and I love that.
Villains - Well portrayed, amazingly designed, interesting(even the background characters!), and overall all unique and perfect! I’m a villain-lover myself(you can’t have heroes without villains!) and I again cannot express how amazing they are! Just as amazing as the heroes in design, character, intrigue, and ideas.
Lancer - Literally my favorite kind of villain. Annoying but cute, you can’t stay mad at him! His redemption arc is as amazing as Susie’s, if funnier. His antics are funny, and dangerous, but he’s got alot to learn about being a villain. Adore his friendship with Susie.
King - While not a beloved character, he’s an amazing villain! Strong, but not just that, smart and clever! Very mysterious, but he doesn’t have that mysterious look, so you don’t expect anything of him that’s new or clever, until he strikes! Political genius as well, willing to do whatever it takes to win. Can’t wait to learn more about him and Lancer.
Rouxls Caard - I never laughed so hard! He’s like if you got Papyrus and mixed him with Mettaton! He’s hilarious and interesting, but we aren’t really given much about his character, except that he’s the Kings favorite(and Lancers!), and he’s determined.
The Background Darkners - All of them are equally well designed and well characterized! The fights with them are cool and interesting, and the casual conversations are memorable. It really made the world unique!
Susie - Does she count? No idea! Just as amazing as a “villain” as a hero!
Jevil - I tried to hate him, I really did, but I adore him! His design, his fight, his phrases! He’s hard to beat, so a good villain, but he’s also extremely mysterious, giving you things at the end of the fight, and speaking in riddles and metaphors. It’s hard to tell if he’s good or bad, right or wrong, or if he’s just someone in the middle. I love jokers, jesters, and chaos-bringers, and Jevil’s all those things! He’s like if you got every meme from late 2017 to 2018 and mashed em together. You may hate him, but he’s an amazing “villain,” and an amazing character.
