Also known as: ヤンデレ, 病んでれ, 病んだ恋の瞳, 病娇, ヤンこれ, 病嬌, 養得累, ブルアカヤンデレ部
A character who alternates between a dangerously obsessive and a loving (Deredere) personality.
Their affection mixes with extreme insecurities to create a type of love that is possessive, delusional, violently Jealous, or even homicidal or downright insane. The feelings differ from character to character. Some direct their attacks against the one whom they desire, while others direct it against anyone who gets too close to the person they love.
This tag is for characters displaying this personality trait through their words or actions. Do not use it simply because the character is canonically yandere.
