Rating Male Yandere Works

Rating Male Yandere Works
NL/BL I have read/am reading that made my heart skip a beat. List order doesn't mean anything. Notes are formatted this way:

- who the male yandere is (* for series where the yandere is obvious, I will leave as "--")

- 4-1 personal yandere rating (4 - iconic & re-read, 3 - good enough to open, 2 - for when bored, 1 - don't really like but someone else might)

NOTE: I am rating yandere of the novel, not the novel's quality itself. Also, my standards for 'yandere' is pretty loose so keep in mind that it's just how I wish to label them. (If I could see the character picking the MC over the world when forced to choose, then I consider them yandere. "I would burn down the world just to keep you warm," sorta thing.)

- short desc. of how the yandere moments show up in story

Previous list name: Male Yandere Top Picks

Reason for change: I started adding works that didn't fit the title but I've already evaluated. The title could be misleading as is, so I changed it.

Yandere: Male Leads (of each world, simultaneously) / Rating: 2 / This was hilarious. The leads are already yandere. Shuraba evasion story.

Yandere: Ghost Husband / Rating: 2 / Swift and easy yandere story, it's better to think of it as a really long one-shot.

Yandere: Siblings / Rating: 1 / Oblivious MC with the yandere popping up like mushrooms type of story.

Yandere: Servant / Rating: 3 / He's creepy and the only problem is that the one shot doesn't have a continuation.

Yandere: MC of the original novel / Rating: 3 / Like a puppy in the first few chapters, then he gets worse.

20 Chapters Every 115.4 Day(s) 6490 Readers 27 Reviews 12-25-2020
Yandere: Male Lead / Rating: 2 / They're very cute but any scheming the yandere does falls flat because it is a romcom.

61 Chapters Every 140.7 Day(s) 7299 Readers 81 Reviews 06-29-2018
Yandere: Younger Brother / Rating: 3 / Moderate burn, but fully translated so you aren't left hanging. Younger bro yandere is a pretty fun character.

Yandere: Disciples / Rating: 2 / Once MC meets them they get attached ASAP (except the first one I think) and are wary of the others because they know each other's true natures. They're all really bratty. Yandere but not angsty.*... more>>
