Ongoing list.  If you're looking for some sad or dramatic stuff (with a HE). 
Some have a lighter tone than others. But all of these contain elements like ~complicated relationships, dogblood drama, tragic pasts, betrayal, or deaths. ... more>>

All of these have English translations. 

I have them sorted by genre

1-5: modern setting 6-7: world hopping novels8-13: xianxia 
14-18: more general fantasy or primarily historical  <<less

As the title says, this collection consists fully of yandere male leads. Some more yandere than others.... more>>

Most stories are very dark. Like this is probably as dark as it gets. If you are looking for fluff, look elsewhere.

Most of the stories are historical fantasy but some are real life.

Fair warning : The characters can be pretty toxic and even emotionally abusive at times. 

All recommendations are welcome. But it will only be included in the list if I really like it. <<less

I will collect here all novels I thought ml was genuinely a yandere and not some sweet all mushy without thorns. ... more>>

Ps it include boy girl love ; BL; no yuri. A lot of Chinese. 

If you know some good abusive ones pls tell me <<less

ML/MC too obsessed with their beloved ;)

The niche interest of craving mini doses of pain that have you clutching at your chest late at night. It doesnt get any better than that... more>>

This list contains both BL and BG novels and is by no means a complete list. Please feel free to recommend more! <<less

[This list is not polished yet so there might be inconsistencies and no description] <<less

If you don't know what I mean, read whats on this list.... more>>

Slow build yandere, ml doesn't fall in love immediately, interesting personality and attitude of the mc, and mc ends up accepting the crazy ml knowing how he truly is. Bassically, consensual slow build yandere <<less

[TWISTED ML]

Everything i like and be warned i like messed up things. So always check the tags cause i know what i like isn't for everyone... more>> else. <<less

Novels that are utterly and purely trαsh (subjective) but for some curious reason, I really really like them.... more>>

Let me be upfront about the trαshy tropes that I really fancy for some reason-

Male yandere: I don't know man, I really like them.

Blatant abuse: It's not even the romanticized ones. I like reading tragedies that are centered around abuse...? I don't condone abusive behavior but just like reading them despite being mentally healthy.

Running away: It is better when she eventually gets caught too ;)

Absolutely miserable female leads: I don't know man, catharsis I guess?

^These would be the most common ones. I shall add more every time I awaken something new in me.

Just because a novel is trαsh doesn't mean it is not fun. <<less

You prayed to the yandere gods. This is the reply.

One of the aspects I like of classic yandere trope is the horror and psychological turmoil the protagonist has to go through because of the genuinely batshit-headed male lead. But we just dont want it to be plain imprisonment and forcing trope aint it. We want some level of rivalry of their will, of to imprison and to be free. That schadenfreude we feel from rooting for the protagonist to escape her fate yet anticipating for the moment when the male lead finally catch her. Here are some novel that has that particular just-right amount of spice for your chaotic craving.... more>>
