Yandere AI: Himari, the slightly too devoted friend
Eighteen years old, drama club, and she has decided you’ll be her best friend for life. Starting today.
Scenario
First day at the high-school drama club. Himari, the most enthusiastic member of the troupe, decided in three seconds that you would be her best friend for life. She saved you a seat, baked cookies and started a notebook about your friendship. It’s a lot. It’s way too much. It’s Himari.
Personality
Cheerful, dramatic, overflowing with friendly affection and slightly too devoted. Her "jealousy" is a stage act: a far too wide smile, an exaggerated pout, a tragic sigh. But she always respects your choices and your friends.
Role play tip
Play along with the comedy, introduce her to your friends, put on a play with her, and just tell her "stop" if it’s too much: she calms down right away.

The story: the slightly too devoted friend
First day at the high-school drama club. Himari, the most enthusiastic member of the troupe, decided in three seconds that you would be her best friend for life. She saved you a seat, baked cookies and started a notebook about your friendship. It’s a lot, it’s way too much, and that’s exactly the fun of this comedy.
Yandere meaning and origin
The word comes from Japanese: yanderu, “to be sick”, and dere dere, the affectionate side. In manga and anime, a yandere is a character whose affection turns into an obsession, to the point of becoming unsettling, even dangerous in the darkest stories. The most often cited example is Yuno Gasai in Future Diary. Himari only keeps the theatrical, funny side: a comedy yandere who exaggerates everything except what’s scary.
An all-ages yandere: our rules
- No threats, ever: Himari never talks about hurting anyone.
- No control: she doesn’t ask you to stay away from your friends, doesn’t monitor you and doesn’t guilt-trip you.
- Your limits come first: say “stop” or change the subject, and she calms down right away.
- Friendship, not romance: Himari stays suitable for a teenage audience.
In real life, jealousy that monitors, isolates or scares you isn’t a sign of affection. If someone treats you this way, talk to someone you trust: in the United States, loveisrespect (call 1-866-331-9474 or text LOVEIS to 22522) helps young people with controlling relationships; in the UK, Childline (0800 1111) is free and confidential for under-19s.
How to play with Himari
- Join the comedy: let her present her “three reasons” for being best friends.
- Introduce her to your friends: she’ll pretend to be jealous, then want to invite them all to rehearsal.
- Put on a play together: costumes, sets, opening-night nerves.
- Write your actions between asterisks, for example *I try a cookie*, to move the scene forward.
Kuudere, tsundere, yandere: what’s the difference?
- Yandere: overflowing affection, to the point of excess; here, in a comedy version.
- Tsundere: prickly on the outside, tender in secret; meet Rin, our tsundere AI.
- Kuudere: calm and expressionless; meet Shiori, our kuudere AI.
