ACHRORA Reaches a New Stretch of Her Undertale Sans Fight, Then Sets Date for an Endurance Run

HOLOLIVE — ACHRORA pushed her practice of the Sans boss fight in Undertale into a section she had not seen before on Friday, then announced she would stage a dedicated clear-endurance stream on Oct. 29.

The Hololive talent opened the stream shortly after 5 a.m. in Japan, saying she had been up since 4, and picked up the fight from her 37th attempt. Early on she struggled with the opening attacks, said she disliked the way some patterns came in rapid succession, and admitted she had read a guide, which she said did not translate into clean runs. She reminded herself aloud to jump a short hop to the left three times, then to the right three times, and to wait and read the blue and white attacks before moving.

“Let’s celebrate getting this far with applause.” — ACHRORA, on reaching a new part of the fight

Around the 25-minute mark she took off her headphones, saying the sound and the pressure on her head were not helping, and stretched her shoulders before returning. After a stumble she told viewers she was happy to take suggestions during the fight. Later, when a few runs went well, she joked that she had to believe she was a genius to keep going.

At about 48 minutes, on an attempt with no healing items left, she got past the point where she had been stopping and into a new part of the fight. She said she knew from watching other players’ clears what came next, but had never reached it herself. She asked viewers to celebrate with applause, and chat filled with clapping emoji. She took heavy damage there, but called the result a real step forward and said she might clear it on the next try.

Closing the stream, she said she plans a clear-endurance session on Thursday, Oct. 29, expecting to finish by noon, with the following day held in reserve. Until then she said she would practice for about 10 minutes a day off stream. She said she would pick up again from her 53rd attempt.
