#*pokes head out of the quicksand for a moment* a lot of people would benefit from seeing this though

found this on reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/UndertaleYellow/comments/1hzetfe/is_this_correct/), what do you think

Yeah, pretty much (only minor critique, I guess, is that he was also risking Kanako, albeit very unintentionally. He didn't know what effects the serum might have on his connection to Kanako as a Boss Monster (luckily it seems like there was no effect). He didn't think about what effects a child Boss Monster losing their parent prematurely might have on their development. He didn't think about the effects of losing a dad so young would have on his kid overall, ignoring the Boss Monster angle. But he wasn't thinking about things from that angle at all....)

I can't speak much for the fanon sides of Cerojin. I try to avoid them as much as possible because the spike of irritation I get from seeing Cerojin be described as "Girlboss and Malewife" (and it's usually Fanon Cerojin 1 that I see more than anything from poking my nose around) isn't good for my health.

I know that I rag on Chujin a lot here, but both Ceroba and Chujin are responsible for how they ruined their lives and Kanako's life. They both suck. Chujin may have been the one to tell Ceroba where the tools are to fulfill his legacy and set her up on the path, but she's the one who took up the tools and broke everything. She didn't have to inject Kanako with the serum; Chujin tried to sway her from it in the instructions he left (though he also offered no other solutions. Finding a "pure" human SOUL and a willing Boss Monster is a one in a million chance so he set her up for failure from the gate) and Ceroba had her initial reservations about using it on Kanako as well. It's only when Kanako brings up how it'll make dad proud that her judgement as a parent is overridden by her desire to please Chujin. She didn't have to let herself be convinced! (And even before then, there were plenty of problems with their marriage like the lying and idolization and etc.)

The biggest takeaway from Cerojin should be that both parties contributed to how it failed so spectacularly. They're a toxic loving couple that enabled the worst in each other and were spiralling to their inevitable doom like two eagles in talon-lock. The only reason why Ceroba gets to try to redeem herself while Chujin doesn't is because she's alive enough to do that.........
