HISTORY REPEATS AND BALANCE IS RESTORED

If you really think about it, what Ritsu was going to do for Mob during Confession Arc (allow himself to be hurt again to snap Mob out of the state he was in) is pretty much exactly what Mob did for him during the Cleanup/Claw Arc of season 1. Mob’s wasn’t intentional or planned out like Ritsu’s was going to be, but he found Ritsu in a violent and abnormal mental state and accepted him fully despite his actions, allowing himself to be bullied to protect Ritsu from enduring the pain of the consequences of his actions. And it was this self-sacrificial beating Mob endured from Koyama that snapped Ritsu fully out of his rebellion and bloodthirst by begging some “super powerful being” not to hurt him (like Mob did to himself in his head).

Also, “Half of that is true, isn’t it?”/“Dont bother trying to get rid of me. Because I’m your brother.” VS “This isn’t some separate, scary version of you. It’s a part of you.”/“Because I’m your younger brother.”

Mob looking serious or neutral and Ritsu with a fearful, shocked expression.

But Ritsu decided to change the ending this time, and end the cycle of self-sacrificial trauma.

Of course, parallels in Confession Arc is a given bc it’s half of the entire point, but it’s fun to explore them.

I was inspired by @esper-eclipse adorable drawings o3o

Concept arts for Papyrus and Undyne.

Papyrus was originally designed by @sunfloraas. I mainly simplified the boots, changed the feather design, and gave him colours. At first his pants were going to be red but we decided to keep them blue like his UNDERTALE design. Just because you're captain of the Royal Guard doesn't mean you can't be stylin' at the same time!

Undyne's outfit is a LARP costume that Alphys helped her make except now she always wears it because it makes her look like a JRPG protagonist. I always interpreted her original sprite as a swimsuit with jeans on top so she keeps the same idea in OTHERSWAP. Her armor is reminiscent of Papyrus'.

The last images are just little doodles of Toby. The shopkeeper Temmie has hair... but I don't know how to feel about that for Toby... so he gets a backwards hat instead. He's also wearing this GameBro shirt.
