Chapter 1 provides essential background on the characters. Fresh is a multiverse parasite that infiltrates its host, Sans, by occupying the left eye socket. Its origins remain a mystery, but it is known that Fresh stands at 6'3". Epic Sans, initially an ordinary version of Sans, gained immense power after receiving a magical eye from Gaster. Following Frisk's fall, Gaster sought to harness their determination, leading to a confrontation that forced Gaster to retreat while seizing control of Frisk's soul. Epic Sans, now tasked with stopping both Gaster and Frisk, has honed his skills through 20 years of battling monsters in his nightmares, standing at 5'6".

Chapter 2: Abilities, Weapons, and Skills

Fresh possesses fewer abilities than initially anticipated. Notably, he can censor profanity and utilizes Explosive Furbies as projectiles, striking them with a Whiffle bat, which results in unconventional attacks. It is presumed that, due to the parasite infecting him, he can access classic Sans abilities such as Gaster Blasters and blue magic. Fresh is characterized by infinite defense and 100 HP, with a single attack capability.

In contrast, Epic boasts a vast array of abilities. He can summon Epic Blasters, which are significantly more powerful than Gaster Blasters, with three of them firing simultaneously equating to a nuclear explosion. These blasters can track opponents, bending their beams to ensure a hit.

Epic can also summon larger, more damaging bones and utilize blue magic that is ten times stronger than that of typical Sans. Additionally, he can absorb magical blasts and deploy them at will during combat. His agility is exceptional, making him one of the best dodgers in the alternate universe, likely due to extensive training against nightmare monsters. While it remains uncertain if he can use karmatic retribution, he can inflict a poison-like effect on his opponents. Furthermore, Epic has the ability to cheat death through his magic eye, which activates if his HP reaches zero or his soul is shattered, His eye serves as a crucial link to his existence, and the only way to eliminate him is by removing it, a task only Epic Gaster or a being of greater power, like 404, can accomplish.

Interestingly, he wields a rubber chicken as a melee weapon; despite its unconventional nature, he has demonstrated the ability to slice through solid stone with it. He exhibits remarkable durability, enduring blasts from Cross Sans, a formidable opponent, and sustaining numerous hits without showing signs of fatigue or weakness. Additionally, he possesses significant physical strength, capable of clashing with Cross's sword using just the rubber chicken. Furthermore, he can incorporate anime-inspired moves into his attacks, showcasing his unique combat style. His stats include HP 99, attack ranging from 1 to 88, and defense from 1 to 99.

Chapter 3 discusses the weaknesses of two characters. Fresh has notable vulnerabilities, particularly his true form; if an opponent were to strike his left eye socket, it could potentially eliminate the parasite. Additionally, since the parasite gradually siphons the host's life force, a prolonged battle with a Sans he has been draining could pose significant challenges for Fresh. On the other hand, Epic Sans has a few limitations as well. His tendency to approach battles with a lighthearted attitude can diminish his strength at the outset, allowing a formidable opponent to gain the upper hand early on. Furthermore, he can be caught off guard and may have a desire for death due to his long struggle to remove the magic eye, although he remains a robust character overall.

In analyzing the potential outcomes of the fight, several scenarios emerge for both characters. In a direct one-on-one confrontation, Epic would likely prevail 8 out of 10 times due to his impressive offensive capabilities and durability.

However, the battle's dynamics could shift if the Fresh parasite manages to infect Epic's eye, which would significantly alter the fight's trajectory. If Fresh were to execute a successful sneak attack, he might have a chance to infect Epic, but this is complicated by Epic's exceptional dodging skills and the fact that Fresh lacks powerful attacks to inflict serious damage. Under optimal conditions for Fresh, the odds would still be only 3 out of 10.

While Fresh possesses infinite defense, Epic's ability to resurrect after being defeated and the sheer destructive power of his blasters—potentially equivalent to nuclear bombs—would make it difficult for Fresh to survive if Epic summoned multiple blasts. Ultimately, Fresh's best chance lies in successfully infecting Epic's eye. This concludes the analysis of the battle; I welcome any differing opinions.
