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 Gandere 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. |

"Gandere" (JP) is a term for a tsundere character who hides their feelings of love towards their love interest by shooting guns at them when they get embarrassed, but overtime grows to become loving and deredere as they learn to be honest with their feelings. They go into "fight-or-flight" mode when flustered and will impulsively shoot at their love interest when they feel embarrassed about their romantic feelings because they don't know how to react despite not really wanting to hurt their love interest. However, even though they have a tendency to shoot at their love interest it doesn't mean they don't love them. In fact, it's the complete opposite and they're madly in love with them. They are simply someone who cannot control their feelings so they shoot at their love interest out of impulse without meaning to. Once they feel more comfortable being honest they will feel less flustered and will gain control over their aggressive impulses. They will openly show their love and affection and will start to show a much more cute and doting side towards their love interest.
This is not to be confused with:
- Gangire - A character who uses guns in a loveless or lethal way.
