Why
We
Love
the
Tsundere
and
Yandere
Archetypes
Have
you
ever
heard
of
the
term
"dere"?
It
comes
from
the
Japanese
word
"deredere,"
which
means
to
become
affectionate.
In
the
world
of
anime
and
manga,
"dere"
is
used
to
describe
a
character's
personality
when
they《{阅读更多 十二星座配对知识请关注 :123星座网,wWw.123152.cOm』]
start
showing
their
softer,
more
vulnerable
side.
There
are
several
types
of
"dere"
archetypes,
but
the
two
most
popular
ones
are
"tsundere"
and
"yandere."
Tsundere
characters
are
cold
and
harsh
on
the
outside,
but
over
time,
they
warm
up
to
those
around
them,
revealing
their
kinder
side.
Yandere
characters,
on
the
other
hand,
start
off
as
sweet
and
affectionate
but
can
quickly
become
obsessive
and
even
violent
towards
the
target
of
their
affections.
While
these
types
of
characters
can
be
seen
as
problematic
due
to
their
possessiveness
and
violent
tendencies,
there's
something
undeniably
intriguing
about
them.
Perhaps
it's
their
unpredictability
or
their
intense
dedication
to
their
love
interest
that
draws
us
in.
Or
maybe
it's
the
fact
that
we
get
to
see
different
sides
of
their
personalities
as
they
open
up.
Regardless
of
the
reasons,
tsundere
and
yandere
characters
have
become
popular
in
anime,
manga,
and
even
video
games.
Some
of
the
most
well-known
tsundere
characters
include
Asuka
Langley
Soryu
from
Neon
Genesis
Evangelion,
Kagami
Hiiragi
from
Lucky
Star,
and
Taiga
Aisaka
from
Toradora.
Popular
yandere
characters
include
Yuno
Gasai
from
Mirai
Nikki
and
Ayase
Aragaki
from
Ore
no
Imouto
ga
Konnani
Kawaii
Wake
ga
Nai.
In
conclusion,
while
the
tsundere
and
yandere
archetypes
may
not
be
everyone's
cup
of
tea,
there's
no
denying
their
appeal.
They
provide
a
glimpse
into
complex
and
often
flawed
personalities,
and
we
can't
help
but
be
drawn
to
them.
So
the
next
time
you
come
across
a
"deredere"
character,
give
them
a
chance
–
you
never
know
what
surprises
they
may
have
in
store.
