Line 13:
 
There's a fundamental difference in character & story, depending on whether the rejected party:
* Becomes [[Ax Crazy]]/[[Stalker with a Crush]]/[[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] or
* Crosses the [[Despair Event Horizon]]/becomes suicidal.
* Fall into the more mild [[Clingy Jealous Girl]]/[[Crazy Jealous Guy]] scenario
Line 22:
 
* Rune from ''[[Karakuridouji Ultimo]]'' falls into this in regards to his current unrequited [[Ho Yay|love for Yamato]].
* Belarus from ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' has an unreturned [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] crush on [[Brother-Sister Incest|brother]] Russia. She doesn't react very well when Russia tries to get her to leave him alone. Meaning she ''tears out his doorknob'' and stands in the doorway with an insane look on her face telling him that they need to get "married"...
* ''[[One Piece]]'': Vander Drecken responds very badly to Princess Shirahoshi rejecting his marriage proposals, leading to a very bad case of [[If I Can't Have You]]. Subverted when it's revealed {{spoiler|he only wanted her for her ability to control Sea Kings.}}
* ''[[Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun]]'': Inner Reika (who's [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] for Shungo) tries to rape Shungo to help get her feelings across, is willing to pull a [[Murder the Hypotenuse]] on Mayu her rival for Shungo's love, and completely looses it in the last episode upon seeing him try to kiss Mayu, screaming at her subordinate Hosaka to kill Shungo. She gets over it though.
* In the ''[[SHUFFLE!]]'' anime Kaede goes [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] when Rin rejects her in favor of Asa. She gets better.
* In ''[[Princess Princess]]'' when Tooru tells Sayaka that he only sees her as a sister she has a [[Freak-Out]] moment and [[Spurned Into Suicide|tries to kill herself by jumping off of a cliff]]. She gets better.
* ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' has a few characters that fall under this, namely Ali and En (for Usagi and Mamoru respectively), Prince Diamond (for Usagi), and Emerald (for Prince Diamond). And Fiore [[Ho Yay|for Mamoru]]. And Queen Beryl's unrequited love for Endymion/Mamoru. Most of them get over the rejections though, more or less.
Line 53:
* Naruse in ''[[Kawaii Akuma]]''. He confesses to Akiyoshi another man and when Akiyoshi rejects him he undergoes a [[:Category:Yandere|complete change of attitude]] and rapes him.
* Griffith of ''[[Berserk]]'' was implied to [[Ho Yay|have feelings for Guts]]. [[:Category:Yandere|He didn't respond very well when Guts left him.]] [[Moral Event Horizon|At]] all.
** He also started harboring [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] tendencies toward Casca as well, and the discovery that Guts and Casca were in a relationship would cause him to snap, [[It Got Worse|leading to everything going to hell]].
** Rosine also had an obsession with her friend Jill. So, when Jill definitely refuses her [[We Can Rule Together]] offer, Rosine captures her and tries to turn her into one of her pseudo-Elves by force.
* Saionji in ''[[Revolutionary Girl Utena]]'' in regards to Anthy.
Line 68:
* Ryoki of ''[[Hot Gimmick]]'' in regards to Hatsumi his girlfriend. At one point in the manga Hatsumi tells Ryoki that she can't be with him anymore when he orders her to make the impossible decision of choosing between him or her family. When she leaves him he's shown thinking to himself "That stupid woman...If she can't be mine she should just die."
* Aoshima of ''[[Ah! My Goddess]]'' is a playboy that can have any woman he wants except for Belldandy and Skuld. When they reject him he doesn't take it well and attempts to rape them. Thankfully, they both escape him before he can.
* ''[[Togainu no Chi]]'': Keisuke becomes [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] as a result of not having his feelings toward Akira being acknowledged and being rejected as well as the effects of Line making him insane. Whether he snaps out of it or not depends on the route (in the game). In the anime though, he snaps out of it and reverts back to his normal self.
* ''[[My-HiME]]'': Shizuru out of her love for Natsuki, goes insane when she believes Natsuki has rejected her (Natsuki, however, also considers Shizuru her most important person) and kills those she sees as Natsuki's enemies. And even better, her [[Mons|CHILD]] is named Kiyohime, see the Myth and Legend section of this page for more.
* [[Alternative Character Interpretation|A possible interpretation]] of [[The Determinator|Kyouko]] from ''[[Skip Beat!]]''.

* Akari of ''[[Girl Got Game]]'' is a type 2 [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] for Kyo. Attempts to drive her away are met with suicide threats and [[Wolverine Claws]].
* {{spoiler|Nozomu}} of ''[[Stepping on Roses]]''. To insane proportions. He even goes so far as to {{spoiler|go around with an ax "Here's Johnny" style trying to catch Sumi "cheating on him"}}.
* Genkaku of ''[[Deadman Wonderland]]'' is [[In Love with Your Carnage|in love]] with Nagi/his carnage. He definitely didn't respond well to Nagi rejecting him.

* [[Rose McGowan]]'s character Debbie in the movie ''Devil In The Flesh'' goes [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] for her teacher when it becomes obvious that he already has a wife and doesn't love her back.

* In ''[[Just Friends (film)|Just Friends]]'' when Chris tries to turn down Samantha she tazers him [[Groin Attack|in the groin]]. Also, Samantha shows up at Jamie's house to start trouble after learning that Chris is kind of dating Jamie.
Line 139:
* Hal/Titan in ''[[Megamind]]''.
* Mark Wahlberg's character David McCall in the 1996 movie "Fear."
* ''[[Beauty and the Beast]]'': Gaston increasingly goes from being a [[Jerkass]] [[Stalker with a Crush]] into a murderous [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] through the course of the movie. It's especially evident after Belle keeps refusing him.
{{quote|'''Gaston:''' I'll ''have'' Belle for my wife! Make no mistake about ''that''!}}
* ''[[My Super Ex-Girlfriend]]'': On one side there is Matt, a normal guy. On the other side there is Jenny Johnson AKA G-Girl, a [[Supergirl]] [[Expy]]. They were an item at first, but then Jenny became more neurotic, aggressive and controlling. So Matt breaks off the relationship and...she does not take the rejection well. This is supposed to be a romantic comedy, but [[Your Mileage May Vary]] on whether or not you find this funny.
Line 215:
== Video Games ==
 
* ''[[Arc Rise Fantasia]]'' has Adelle, who goes [[Ax Crazy]] [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] the ''very instant'' she finds out she's an [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]]. The resulting death toll numbers somewhere in the thousands to hundreds of thousands, and came close to killing everybody on the planet. It seems she felt she had two options: softspoken [[Yamato Nadeshiko]] girlfriend of the protagonist, or bitchy high priestess of the local [[Religion of Evil]].
* ''[[First Encounter Assault Recon|F.E.A.R. 2]]'': [[:Category:Yandere|Alma]] in [[Stalker with a Crush|regards to Becket]]. She develops romantic feelings for him and frequently does [[Attempted Rape]] on him. However he fights her off each time and this angers her. {{spoiler|At the end of the game she does eventually manage to rape him and is pregnant with his child}}.

When he found her with another guy he ''burned down the house when she and the other guy were still inside''.
** Also, there's Joan the maid in the episode "I Take Thee Quagmire" who marries Quagmire. When Quagmire tries to bring up divorce following becoming aroused by seeing Lois's breasts Joan goes into [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] mode and threatens to cut both herself and him with a kitchen knife, right before saying "I love you Glen." When Quagmire says "I love you too insane woman I'm having second thoughts about" Joan goes into [[Freak-Out]] mode again and screams "WHAT?!"
** And when Stewie falls in love with the babysitter, he breaks her boyfriends legs, ties him up and ''locks him in his trunk'' leading to his death.
