Make sure to read the character guidelines before adding any new characters. All characters listed who have been in love with, have a crush on, or are in a relationship with someone and are Deredere for them will be marked with a heart (♥) next to their name. You can also see who this love interest is by dragging the cursor over the heart. Characters who are not romantic versions of this type, but are cute and affectionate towards friends/family must be marked with (platonic) or (familial) instead. |

"Deredere" (JP) is a term for an overly affectionate character who is lovestruck and does not hide their romantic feelings towards their love interest. They experience intense feelings of romantic love for their love interest to the point that it is difficult for them to think of anything else except the person they love. They will be very openly loving towards their love interest the entire time and show their love in a very overly affectionate and doting kind of way. They will be endearingly clingy towards their love interest in public and always want to be lovey-dovey with them, not caring if other people see the two of them being affectionate with each other because they are not embarrassed by their feelings, and they will be even more intimate when they're alone together. They will give lots of affection and attention to their love interest to please them and receive their love. They desire lots of close contact and affection and will behave in cute ways to make their love interest want to pamper them with love.
This is not to be confused with:
- Genkikko - A character who is full of energy and is very cheerful.
- Nipadere - A character who is filled with contagious joy, happiness, and positivity, and always cheers on the person they are deredere for with a bright smile on their face.
Note: All dere types act deredere at some point, but this archetype is only for characters that are purely deredere the entire time (dere at the beginning and dere at the ending), so characters with two sides should not be added to this list.
