Wiktionary(4.60 / 10 votes)Rate this definition: yandere(Noun) A fictional character who fits the archetype of being loving, sweet and gentle, but is at the same time brutal, psychotic or deranged in behavior. The psychotic tendency can be both sudden and ever-present. Often used for both comedic and dramatic displays of character.
The term is a portmanteau of the words yanderu (çãã§ã), meaning (mentally or emotionally) ill, and deredere (ã§ãã§ã), meaning to show genuinely strong romantic affection. Yandere characters are mentally unstable, incredibly deranged and use extreme violence or brutality as an outlet for their emotions.
