Ylfas's scene motionless in cabin purgatory staring down the Wolf for weeks on end reminds me so much of the one scene at the end of Doki Doki Literature Club where Monika and the player are stuck in that pocket dimensional room for an infinite amount of time just,,, staring at each other, and the only way for the player to move on in any way is to delete Monika's character file (effectively killing her) just like the only way for Ylfa to move on and finish her story is to kill and consume the Wolf. Truly haunting and mesmerizing

ddlc is a psychological horror yes and it does that so very well but from monikas perspective it’s also a cosmic horror and people don’t talk about that enough i think

The nuance between Monika being a "villain" and being an "antagonist" is lost on many.
And hell, now we have Plus and she's not even really either.
Yeah, and I'm not the most qualified to analyze culture or media literacy or anything, but it seems lost on many that just because someone is "bad" or "a villain" doesn't automatically make them the antagonist, and vice versa.
I'd definitely say that Monika is the antagonist of the base game, given that the player is actively coping with her alterations of the game and thus the "challenge" of playing the game. However, Monika is definitely not a villain of any sort. That suggests that she did things maliciously, with the intent to harm or carry out some wicked plan. In the end, while she did a lot of things wrong, her goal was love, and her shortcomings were caused by her newfound power blinding her to the truth of the damage she was causing. In the end, she even resets the game (without herself, a sort of self-sacrifice) in order to right what she did wrong and have some modicum of a happy ending.
That's far from "villainous" in my book.

The character of Monika in Doki Doki Literature Club is a modern iteration of The Little Mermaid, as originally written by Hans Christian Andersen: A character who falls in love not just for typical romantic reasons, but because the one they love represents a world they want to be a part of, because they view their own world as not as whole/fulfilling. However, they are never able to cross this barrier, being seen by their love interest as more of a curiosity, a distraction, a substitute in place of something better, a plaything. And in the end, they come to realize this world doesn't have a place for them, and sacrifice themselves for the happiness of the one they love. In this essay, I will
