I was trying not to go into spoilers in the comments but... Here, I'll copy and paste what I just wrote above in response to another(?) anon:

Frisk in the beginning of the game is essentially in a kind of Schrodinger-esque quantum state of being both Frisk and Chara; the endgame determines which one you get when the box is "opened", so to speak.

Through the game you progress to points where you are essentially told which side you're veering toward, and which of the duality is the new core personality (ie. the mirror dialogue and dialogue with final bosses). In a normal rpg this kind of player choice is written off by getting dialogue that implies that whatever ending the player picks is generally the "true" nature of the character. In this case the contrary is actually implied if you take the pacifist route, since you are outright told that the character is not who s(he) assumed s(he) was (ie. Chara).

It's just one of the many subversions of the RPG tropes, and a way to subtly break the 4th wall by acknowledging that both routes are potentially the true, canon route.
