Which Dere Type is TRULY the Most Popular?
🚧 WORK-IN-PROGRESS 🚧
Let's decide this once and for all the only objective way possible. For each dere type I searched for exact matches only and limited search results to pages in Japanese language and English language respectively. Now of course this isn't perfect and some dere types which closely resemble actually words can't find clear results, but for 99% of dere types this will be accurate. Also Western variations are merged with the Japanese version since the only thing that is different is the meaning and not the name.
NEW VARIATION FANMADE!!!
Or ima call it combination???
Utsushun.
A combination of Utsudere and Shundere. (ik shundere page is not here)
Personality:
Utsushun are depressed and sad. But when they met their love interest, they wanted their love interest attention to them, but if they don't they became sad. Everytime when their love interest isn't here, they are slightly depressed.
Unofficial: Toridere
"Toridere" is a term for a character who acts like a bird to their love interest. They will be sweet and affectionate and may do things like chirping to get attention for their love interest
- 1 Meaning
- 2 Characteristics
- 3 Personality
- 4 Differences From Other Archetypes
Tori means bird while deredere means lovey-dovey.
Toridere characters have bird-like traits, they tend to have wings on their back.
Toridere show their affection by acting like birds, they tend to tweet to get attention from their love interest.
Toridere are similar to nyandere and wandere, while a nyandere and wandere act like cats and dogs respectively, toridere act like birds instead.
Reliable Sources
This is a guide to how to tell if a source is reliable and how to determine if an archetype is official.
- 1 Always Reliable
- 1.1 Level 1: Primary Source
- 1.2 Level 2: Japanese News/Journalism Sites
- 2 Be Cautious
- 2.1 Level 3: Japanese Self-Published Works
- 2.2 Level 4: Japanese Wikis
- 2.3 Level 5: Western News/Journalism Sites
- 3 What Is Never Reliable
- 3.1 Personal Blogs
- 3.2 Social Media Posts
- 3.3 Western Wikis
The highest level of reliability is to get it directly from the source. This means using a professionally published manga, anime, light novel, or video game where the archetype is mentioned and used. This can either be in the title of the series, in promotional material, or a statement from the author. If an official media uses an archetype, then there is no questi…
Namaijidere
"Namaijidere" is a term for a character that is cocky, snarky, or full of themselves, but has a lovey-dovey or compassionate side. These characters usually see themselves as good-looking and perfect in most ways, and depending on the character, that attitude could just be a coping method or actual belief. However, they soften up around their loved one, revealing a more vulnerable, warm side. This dere type is similar to Tsundere, , or
Namaiji means "cocky, sassy, rude" and dere means "lovestruck."

The real reason why Shundere will get a correct defintion
The Shundere's definition will be changed since there is already a depressed + dere, and it’s Utsudere, it’s was merged.

Himitsu Dere (ヒミツデレ, Himitsu/Secret + Deredere) is a Japanese erotic manga series released in 2014 that follows all types of "secret love". Each chapter of the manga features one of the characters' names plus the suffix "dere" indicating that they are the focus of being deredere for …
What Makes A Good Dere Type
A constructive analysis on dere types.
- 1 Types of Dere
- 1.1 Type 1: Character Development - Obstructing
- 1.2 Type 2: Wide Open - Influencing
- 1.3 Type 3: Adaptive - Both
- 2 What To Avoid
First we will look at what makes a "dere type" a dere type by analyzing pre-existing official ones. In each type, the "__" side directly relates to the "deredere" side. Official types can be broken down into two categories:
- The "__" side hides the "deredere" side
- The "__" side is the "deredere" side.
The original formula for a dere type was having a "__" side that hides the warm and loving "deredere" side. This can be seen with some of the original dere types that came into existence:
- Dandere: The shy "danmari" side causes them to be unable to share their "deredere" side.
- Kam…

A Dere type Idea
So I decided for one or some dere type to be possibly in the wiki!
- 1 Doseiaidere
- 2 Meaning of the Name
- 3 Personality
- 4 Characters with this Personality
A "Doseiaidere" are characters who are a part of the LGBTQIA+ community and/or is an Ally.
This word is "doseiai" (同性愛) meaning "homosexuality", and "deredere" (デレデレ), which means "lovey dovey".
Doseiaidere characters are characters who are a part of the LGBTQIA+ community or are an ally or supports it. They strongly support the LGBTQIA+ community and they also stand up for their rights. They are strongly known for expressing their sexuality or expressing their support for it.
Doseiaideres are proud of their sexuality and/or they are a big supporter. They are proud for their identification and proud of th…

What's happening with me?
My life tends to become upset now and again. I'm creating this page so that people know when I will not be available for a while due to circumstances beyond my control.
Late 2022 we were hit by a cat-4 hurricane. Everyone is safe and well, but it really set back my plans for working on this wiki and other personal projects. I'm planning to make my comeback from Easter of 2023 onward.
Real life has struck again. I'm going to be offline in the coming days/weeks of August and September. I have to warranty out some of my PC parts and we're having to change Internet providers because our current one, CenturyLink, by their own admission needs to replace some of their old equipment, but they're not doing the work.
Oshidere Gallery
}}
Oshideres easily fall for people they don't know well if at all. They often find mystery attractive and may put their love interest on a pedestal.
Uttogire
Uttogires are characters who snap due to being enamored by something to the point where it completely consumes them, blinding them to anything outside of their obsession.
Uttogire (うっとギレ) comes from the term "uttori" (うっとり) meaning "to be spellbound, to be enamored with, to be enchanted by..." and "gire" (ギレ) meaning "to snap".
Uttogires are obsessive and selfish, their entire world revolves around the thing they want and nothing else. Yanderes, Yangires, and Uttogires can have a lot of crossover, however the object of an Uttogire's affection is not always a romantic partner, unlike yanderes/yangires.
Uttogires have no regard for the wellbeing or feelings of others. They do not understand emotions outside of their obsession. They will do almos…
Oshidere
}}
Oshideres easily fall for people they don't know well if at all. They often find mystery attractive and may put their love interest on a pedestal.
Oshidere comes from the word "Oshi" (推し), meaning "One's favorite (Pop idol, anime character, etc) or "To push for/To support", and the term deredere" (デレデレ), which means "lovey-dovey".
Oshideres are often defiant to recognizing the distant or even parasocial nature of the relationship between them and their love interest. Essentially the anime/manga version of a k-pop stan who is convinced their favorite band member is aware of their existence and has a crush on them. Oshideres are often innocent and sweet, but often times comments on their naiivety are ironically met with an outburst akin to a …

I added some characters to some pages which i think would fit them. but if you think i placed them in the wrong category, please let me know.
A little help with a character
Hi. some of you may know Blue Exorcist, yeah?

Blogs
I'll probably keep this blog up to date with weekly things, like my opinios because no one comes here.
hhhmmm
A Hiyaksudere is a flirty Tsundere. I doubt anyone comes to the blogs, so I posted my secret opinion here 💀💀💀
Blog posts. Dang. No one has created a blog post for ageeeeessss. Why? It's like the blogs are invisible...
What the title says. I really wish people were more active... It feels like I'm the only one on here. Anyone here? (┬┬﹏┬┬)
New yandere page for review
My fellow yanderes,

You can find it here. Feel free to comment. https://the-dere-types.fandom.com/wiki/User:Ballsystemlord1024/Sandbox-yandere
What kind of dere Tae Hanazono would it be?
Tae Hanazono is one of the main characters in Bang Dream. She is lead guitarist for the band Poppin'Party.
Tae is one of my favorite characters in the game/anime due to his laid-back and funny personality.
However, I wanted to know which dere you think she would qualify. Comment on this blog what is your opinion.
Wiki Images
Here I will document all the images used for the wiki. You can take them as a reference for your own wiki or give new suggestions for The Dere Types Wiki.
Images used for the organization of galleries, all created by myself on Photoshop and using the font Loverboy. The "Empty Gallery" image was created with a modified .GIF from the anime Sailor Moon.

What's up? I am here to improve this Dere fandom, get to learn more about myself and other people by reading certain Dere pages, and I am here to chill.
Dere Type Enneagram Correlations - Tsundere and Yandere
I’ve been using a website called Personality Database. It is a community where users get to vote and discuss the MBTI and Enneagram for each person or character. The MBTI, Enneagram, and other personality models with the most votes will result in their personality types being displayed on each profile.
Today, I’m going to take a look at some of the popular Tsundere and Yandere characters in anime/manga and find out where the connection lies in their enneagram and tritype.
What is an Enneagram?
The Enneagram is a framework that offers in-depth insight to individuals, groups and collectives. There are nine main Enneagram types, 18 wings, and three centers of intelligence. The Enneagram offers a rich map to personal development from an open syst…

Who's your favorite Danganronpa Character
Ok i know that this blog is pretty familiar to my last blog called "Who's Your Favorite DDLC Girl?" but this one is gonna different it's actually going to be Danganronpa instead, also i'm not gonna add Nagito and Kokichi or even Togami in the list now i don't hate them or anything, their just not exactly my favorites in the series so please don't attack me or even doxxed me as well because this is just my personal opinion. Before i get started i like to mention that most of them are not in any particular order besides number four.
6. Makoto Naegi - Now i know not a lot of people likes him because they see him as just a boring and dumb protagonist since they also thinks that Kyoko and Byakuya did all of the work but i disagree mainly becaus…
I have reached top tier aisukurimudere
I have the ability to play Identity V as a hunter while eating a fudgesicle/popsicle and still win, along with other games.
I also have a butt load of ice cream, ice cream sandwiches, and popsicles at home.
I believe I have earned the title of an aisukurimudere.
Just want to make sure
Kind of a silly question I feel like, but...
I wanted to add a character from a game to a list. It's from an Asian game, but I don't think it belongs under anime media. So... I should just put it in western, right?

Character Search
I found a really cool feature on this wiki. I tested it on my own wiki first before testing it on this wiki as well. I'm assuming most of the dere wiki readers already know, but in case a few don't know, let me instruct you all.
If there's a character you're curious about and you want to discover which of the deres they are, you can type them in the search bar besides your profile icon, the following answers are mentioned in the Dere results. It's pretty neat, and very useful for whenever I feel like analyzing my chosen characters on my Tumblr blog.
Who's your favorite DDLC Girl
I don't know if this is how you make blogs but i'm curious about the people in The Dere Type Wiki favourite character in DDLC, i'm in between Sayori and Yuri, and no Natsuki is not my favorite sorry just my opinion there ain't anything interesting about her beside her being abused by her father also i don't hate her at least the creator didn't make her "Super Tsundere" plus she was a well-written character but not as interesting, and Monika was a great character i just wish there more "Characteristic" in her tho, anyway this is my opinion on the characters so 💕💓Byee~

I Have Personality Database
If you don't know what Personality Database is, it is a community dedicated to exploring the different personality types from each system (namely MBTI and Enneagram) and is home to personality profiles of fictional characters and real people for members to view, vote and discuss.
You don't have to worry about signing up as long as you have a Google account. Just click sign in next to a google icon and bam, your profile is created. After that you can even add your MBTI and enneagram to your profile, which is pretty cool if you ask me. My username is AnimeArchetypes if you wanna add. It's basically the same as my Tumblr minus the dash in the middle. See you guys round!

Guess the Dandere
So... I created another OC! Surprise surprise! There are two this time! ^_^ So why don't we play a guessing game?
Each of them has their own background story, and one of them is actually a hidden character (from my hidden video). Can you guess which character is the "secret" character?
Based on their looks, which one do you think is a Dandere?
A Yandere Character with Dreadlocks?
Do you guys think a dreadlock hairstyle would suit a Yandere character?
Because just the other day I was doing my "creating an OC by taking a quiz" thing (quick advertisement lol, here's a link if you want to watch the process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNMpsEO2v0s ), and I got dreadlocks for the hairstyle, sooo.... I just followed along. But do you guys think that the dreadlocks, stereotypically give off the "dangerous" look to the Yandere character? Or did I succeeded in still making my Yandere OC a cute look?
An Eventful Day, The Legend of the Missing Non-Dere Tag
A few weeks back, a mass of random (with no evidence) deres and non-dere page productions have been created.
One of them was the legendary "Ysundere" page or also known as the "Page to Create Unofficial Dere Types" page. Other types of pages were the hybrid type of dere such as "Danredere" and "Kuutsundere". There were also other dere pages without enough evidence such as "Hinodere", which was apparently created because of a spelling mistake from "Hinedere".
The Page to Create Unofficial Dere Types however, was causing quiet an uproar. Some users love it, while others were simply being loyal and respectful to the Dere Wikia to keep it true to its name. I've heard some news that the page will be deleted, however, at the moment, at this exact …
Created my own Tsundere OC
One day I woke up, and decided to create an OC. To be specifically, a Tsundere OC. More over, I decided that it would be interesting if I created her looks according to quizzes. So I answered the question in the quizzes as if I were a tsundere (I probably answered some wrong because I'm not truly a tsundere). But I had fun! :D
The most bizzare idea that I thought while planning to make my Tsundere OC is that I recorded every step and process. So I made a video out of it. I've always been cautious, aware, and afraid that people around me (in real life) found out my hobbies and other people's judgements. But that day, I thought screw it! I'm never gonna feel free if I keep closing myself up. So I decided to publish my video on Youtube (this i…
G'day
Just dropped by to say hi to everyone. I have no intention of being an asshole at the moment because I already got enough to deal with. Have fun on the wiki!
