What is American Yandere?

"American Yandere" refers to a fictional character archetype that combines elements of the "Yandere" archetype, which originated in Japanese culture, with American cultural influences and characteristics. The term "Yandere" is derived from the Japanese words "yanderu" (mentally ill) and "dere" (lovestruck), and it typically describes a character, usually a female, who starts off as sweet, caring, and loving but becomes mentally unstable, possessive, and violent towards their love interest or those who threaten their relationship.    

The concept of the "American Yandere" takes this character archetype and incorporates American cultural elements, such as societal norms, popular media portrayals, and cultural references. The portrayal of an "American Yandere" may vary, but it often includes traits and behaviors influenced by American pop culture, such as an obsession with celebrity culture, extreme reactions to perceived betrayals, and a propensity for violence or revenge.    

It's important to note that the term "American Yandere" is primarily used within fan communities, particularly in fan fiction and discussions that explore the intersection of different cultural influences. The concept allows for creative interpretations and adaptations of the original "Yandere" archetype within an American context.

And the word "American Yandere" is just based on fiction and not real shit... Yes there is love struck American out there but still that term should be use in fiction and not in real life stuff

I'm the first person who make animation series about lovestruck american and nobody else (I think?)
