this girly-pop is a sis-con turned male lead. i love how MC is also mentally ill and goes along with his delusions. FR should read... more>> this for a new take on the yandere love interest trope, since ML is "in love" with his sister for half the novel and against his will falls in love with the MC. It's so sweet! If only author didn't h**ny brain some parts... <<less

Peitian isn't really a true yandere because he's so kind and malewife, but he deserves to be here for his babygirlness. He also kills for... more>> MC, so that's pretty yan. Peitian also gets sick/injured a whole lot so there's the caring part. ITS HERE FOR MC!! MC IS SO SWOON-WORTHY and she actually quashes any doubt he has in his potentially yandereing heart, like yes, i'll be with you forever AHHHH. AND this yandere gets friends and healthy platonic relationships and community and what??? So he doesn't even get to yandere all the way to jail! <<less

THIS. This is an unhinged man! Truly deserving of being psycho loco unlike some of the fellas on this list. A person who only feels alive when he's killing or smooching up on MC.  Man is also into killing/being killed by MC. (lowkey breathplay with the choking) He is also tattooed, which is super rare for this genre.... more>>

Although, the blindness and convenient disability is a bit of an ick. Like the ML just chooses to be blind and can suddenly see the next moment. thats crazy, author <<less

Cecil is a great evolution of the yandere trope! The romance isn't as spicy and dark as the rest, but it's good! The MC is... more>> oblivious to his yandere antics and he takes good care of her. He has a genetic mental illness that goes along the lines of general apathy and bouts of violence. <<less

To me the gender-bender part is so extra for what. I love the MC being seen as an M degenerate for ML by everyone. (literally... more>> begging to get slapped and hit by the ML) I think its refreshing to have a MC being so downbad for a yandere, even if it's a misunderstanding. It makes the ML feels secure in their relationship and it's just so sweet. <<less
