The deliberate overuse of "Yandere" tag needs to stop.

[Smudge49]

More than 50% of the "Yandere" stories barely fit the actual yandere category. I don't know why so many authors use that tag even though it barely appears in their stories.

Probably because it's a popular tag

 

[Zenftiy]

Popular tag. I used it once and my story views increased a lot.

 

[expentio]

Damnit, I could've used it because of a vague semblance! As well as Girl's Love!

 

[RainyLiquid]

If it's popular people will bend over backwards to use it.

 

[Zagaroth]

Hmm.

I *technically* have single yandere-ish character who is introduced late into the story. And she has a major impact on the story from there. ?

But no, I don't think it would be appropriate to throw that tag on, not nearly central enough to the story.

Tags should be exact.

 

[Madmcgee]

Just realizing I have Yandre characters but don't use the tag...

hmmmmmmmmm

ty for bringing this to my attention.

So would Mandere have the lover be a dude, or just become one when killing?

And would Jandere involve tractors?

Yes.

Klingondere involves yandere kingons. It's a startrek fan fiction version.
