Yandere/Video Games: Difference between revisions

** Pretty much everyone except Shiki, Hisui and maybe Ciel. Arcueid? {{spoiler|She's damn scary in Ciel's route.}} Ciel? {{spoiler|She tries to set up a sort of double murder/suicide plot with Shiki, but ummm that's her own route so lets say she mostly copes. She gives up completely with only mild hints of how she feels/her backstory in Arcueid's route.}} Akiha? {{spoiler|Goes from [[Clingy Jealous Girl]] throughout the game to as scary as Arcueid in Kohaku's route.}} Kohaku? {{spoiler|The final straw in her utter craziness is Shiki's failure to recognize her as the girl at the window who gave her the ribbon.}} Roa? {{spoiler|The last 800 years of his history and [[Love Makes You Evil|Arcueid's backstory]] is actually because he [[Love Makes You Crazy|loved]] her.}} Satsuki? Isn't it sad?

*** Even Shiki isn't safe from being a Yandere -- at least, not {{spoiler|his Nanaya mode, which actually got off from murdering in the girl who would become the canon victor of their little [[Love Dodecahedron]]. It got so bad that, it's very possible that after slaughtering a whole bunch of Dead who were assaulting her, on the grounds that only he may violate her, he actually rapes her (if you choose). Arcueid rationalizes it as him being accidentally caught by her Mystic Eyes of Enchantment, but in reality it's actually a last minute dialing down from outright murder.}}

{{quote|'''Sapphire:''' Of course, I might've just gone back to slash you to pieces to vent my anger. You saved your own life. Heehee [[Say It with Hearts|<3]]!}}

** There's also Anise the cat witch.

* Really Ryez from ''[[Twinkle Star Sprites]]'' is yandere for Arthur Schmitt. Her favorite word is ''[[Japanese Pronouns|onore]]''.

* Sakura of ''[[Da Capo]]'' is very, very dere towards Junichi but as the story continues, psycho personality traits emerge more and more frequently, starting with the implication she ''dropped a tree branch on someone's head'' because they mistook her for the lead's younger sister and treated her like a kid. She gets worse, both in [[Beware the Nice Ones|back]] and [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|main]] [[Murder the Hypotenuse|story.]] {{spoiler|To be fair, she can't really help it as stuff just ''happens'' when she thinks about it.}}

** To a certain extend, in ''[[Persona 3]]'' FES, in The Answer, {{spoiler|Yukari}} who is established as having fallen for {{spoiler|the deceased main character}} says without hesitation that she will struggle the {{spoiler|magical keys}} from her friends (without visible concern for their health) when she realizes {{spoiler|she has a chance to go back in time to try and save said main character, although it implies having to face the final boss again. She breaks down when finally defeated.}} Having this new facet of her personality suddenly revealed, along with the excellent voice acting she gets, might arduably result in the creepiest moments in both the Answer and the main game.

** In ''[[Persona 4]]'', there's an NPC outside the library who has a crush on an upperclassman. When she suspects that he has a girlfriend, she snaps at him and drives him away. Towards the end of the game, she places all the blame on the other girl and even tries to kill her through indirect poisoning.

** Say hello to [[Alice Allusion|Alice]]. [[Came Back Wrong|Actually]], [[Dark Magical Girl|she's]] not the real [[Creepy Child|Alice]]. Her adoptive parents, the [[Those Two Bad Guys|Count in Red and the Baron in Black]], are actually [[Ars Goetia|Belial and Nebiros]]. Funny thing is, she's still mentally a young girl who wants to do normal things like go to school and get lots of friends. The problem is her "[[Damaged Soul|revival]]" gave her magic. [[Casting a Shadow|Lots and lots of dark magic]]. Along with eroding her sense of why it's not a particularly good idea to torture, kill and eat your friends for fun.

* Lezard Valeth from ''[[Valkyrie Profile]]''. When he first meet him, {{spoiler|he kidnaps an elf girl who kill her and intertwine her genetic make-up with a human girl's to create a half-elf vessel for the [[Lady of War|main character]], then uses his former teacher and her husband as bait by [[Body Horror|transforming the man into a monster]] and have him kill his wife. Then in the second game, he time travels and wreaks havoc with the timeline, kills so many people that it borders on genecide, and all just to get into Lenneth's panties.}}

* ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'': [[Artificial Human|Riku Replica]] goes absolutely apeshit if he thinks you'll get between him and Namine. Also, [[The Starscream|Marluxia's]] plan was to brainwash [[The Hero|Sora]] into one of these for Namine, hereby turning him into a pawn to take over the Organization. It almost works, and even after Sora and Riku Replica learn they were brainwashed, this doesn't effect their feelings much. (Namine ended up having to wipe Sora's memories of her to get him to recover.)

** Replica meets his end trying to kill Riku for going to find Namine ''when Namine was trying to arrange a meeting with Riku'' (to explain Sora's situation to him).

* While many characters in ''[[Rule of Rose]]'' fit the bill, no one suits the trope better than {{spoiler|Wendy, who kills Jennifer's dog Brown because she thinks that she likes him more than her, and when Jennifer reacts badly, she trains the neighborhood psycho to murder everybody.}}

* Tira from ''[[Soul Calibur]]'', Nightmare's ''[[Genki Girl|very]]'' [[Perky Female Minion]] [[The Dragon|Dragon]]. She is a [[Psycho Supporter]] [[Undying Loyalty|of his]] [[Mad Love|who explicitly wants]] [[Cargo Ship|to become one with]] [[Artifact of Doom|Soul]] [[The Corruption|Edge]], the [[Evil Weapon]] that the entire story revolves around. This gets [[Lampshade Hanging|a lampshade hung over it]] in the Gauntlet (a [[Rule of Funny|humorous]], [[Canon Discontinuity|non-canon]] story from ''Broken Destiny'', the PSP port of ''IV''), where she functions as Nightmare's unwanted [[Stalker with a Crush]] and wants him to [[Devour the Dragon|eat her]] and destroy the world, saying that she'll kill anyone who gets in the way of her love.

** In the second part of the game we have Prince Yurius of Velthomer {{spoiler|who happens to be Alvis and Diadora's son}}. The only person he shows affection to is his girlfriend, the local [[Dark Magical Girl]] Ishtar, and when he finds out that her bodyguard Reinhardt seems to be a liiiiiiittle too close to her for his comfort, Yurius forces Ishtar to fire him under the threat of killing him the next time he sees them together. To be fair, {{spoiler|Yurius has been the [[Soul Jar]] for the evil god Lopto for a while already when that happens, therefore we don't know if he's a Yandere ''per se'' or because of Lopto.}}

* Valter the Moonstone from [[Fire Emblem the Sacred Stones]] is already an [[Ax Crazy]] [[Complete Monster]], but his obsession with Princess Eirika places him squarely into this trope as well.

* Ilya from [[Fate/stay night]] is both Possessive and Obsessive on the main protagonist, specially when you {{spoiler|refuse to become her living doll/familiar, openly saying she is going to kill Saber and Rin, and to kill the protagonist in the most painful way imaginable}}.

* {{spoiler|Adele}} from [[Arc Rise Fantasia]] {{spoiler|does not take the discovery that she was the hero's [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]] very well. She goes from a soft-spoken, shy, loyal [[Yamato Nadeshiko]] [[White Magician Girl]] to the brash, sultry, manipulative high priestess of a [[Religion of Evil]] (a religion the hero was opposing, naturally) so fast, her neural pathways almost certainly have skid marks.}}

* [[Big Bad|Bowser]] from the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' series games is actually this to Peach, which explains why he always kidnaps her in the first place.
