Romaji: Kichidere) is a term for a character who has gone insane and usually acts like a crazy lunatic, but whose romantic feelings toward their love interest are surprisingly cute and deredere. They have usually experienced some kind of psychological trauma during their childhood which caused them to develop severe mental illnesses and twisted ways of thinking. However, despite this side of them they will show a more loving and overly affectionate side towards their love interest. Often their love interest is the one who shows them happiness for the first time which causes them to fall in love. Their love interest will want to save them and help them to overcome their trauma and insanity. The love they have for their love interest will motivate them to continue improving themselves and slowly over time they will become a better and happier person. In some cases, with the help of their love interest they may even be able to completely overcome the trauma that caused their mental health issues and become a purely deredere and normal cheerful person.
I don't understand the feelings of the weak. The law of the world is survival of the fittest. It's how the weak are weeded out. It just means those people that died were too weak. It's only natural for the weak to perish. — Esdeath, from Akame ga Kill!
Tatsumi, I wish that you had been beside me. — Esdeath, from Akame ga Kill!

Unfortunately, a menhera virgin, starved for love and likely to fall for anyone who would be a little nice to her, has set eyes on you. —Hitagi Senjougahara to Koyomi Araragi, from Bakemonogatari

Right now, I'm afraid of losing you. Although my life hasn't been very fortunate until now, I'm glad if I caught your eye because of that misfortune. Because of that, I was able to fall for you. So we'll definitely do something, but I want to wait just a bit. So, right now, the last thing I can offer you... Is this starry sky. —Hitagi Senjougahara to Koyomi Araragi, from Bakemonogatari

So is that how it is? Are you going to get in the way? You're not my type at all, I'll cut you anyway. —Himiko Toga, from My Hero Academia
Listen, Ochaco. When I think about the people I love... it makes me wanna become them. This desire to take all their blood for myself gushes up 'til I just can't stand it... I get all emotional just thinking about it. That's how I am. But other people aren't like that. It's so hard for me to live like this. This one nasty lady said my "normal" was sad and miserable. And then, guess what? She tried to kill me. So y'know what I did, Ochaco? I used your blood and your Quirk... to drop her from waaay up high. Drinking the blood of someone I love gives me their Quirk, too. Oh, I was so, sooo happy when it happened. —Himiko Toga, from My Hero Academia
That's me, your darling in the flesh!! You remembered me, haha!! You have no idea how happy I am to see you again!! C'mere, lets get closer Izuku!! —Himiko Toga, from My Hero Academia
Of course you wanna be like the one you love. It's natural. So you end up decking yourself out to look like him. But after enough time, even that's not enough. You literally want to become him. There's no helping it. So what's your type? I love tattered guys reeking of blood. That's why I always carve people up in the end. —Himiko Toga, from My Hero Academia

Genshin Impact
Paimon: "...Um, so anyway, Paimon has a question... Teucer said something about you being a toy seller... What's all that about? Aren't you supposed to be one of the Fatui's Harb—" Tartaglia: "Ahem! Um... Yes, about that... Shh, look, I only told him that so that he'll look up to me. In the eyes of a child, working with toys must be the best job imaginable, right? I don't want my family to have anything to do with the Fatui's... or should I say, Snezhnaya's... darker side. The older ones already know that I serve the Tsaritsa. But Teucer is still so young, and in his eyes..." —Tartaglia talking to Paimon from Genshin Impact
Tartaglia: "You know what I'm here for, I trust?" Slippery Wu: "Oh, you've got lip. Makin' us guess, are you? If you wanna join up, let me just say this first — dandy kid like you? You ain't welcome." Tartaglia: "Oh ho. What a commendable imagination. Well, in the Tsaritsa's name, I suppose I should forgive you country bumpkins for your ignorance. For I am—" Teucer: "Brother! You're selling them toys, aren't you, brother? That's so cool! I've always wanted to watch you work!" Tartaglia: "...Why, yes, of course! For I am, uh... ...The greatest toy salesman in Snezhnaya!" Paimon: "Pfft..." Teucer: "So cool!" Slippery Wu: "... You playin' games, pretty boy?" —Tartaglia's change in demeanor around his brother from Genshin Impact
Anyway, childhood dreams are all too easily shattered. Even if you just leave them be, they will fall to pieces all by themselves. So, someone has to protect them, right? If you make a promise, you keep it, if you make a mistake, you apologize... And if you give someone a dream, you defend it to the end... That is what family is all about, isn't it? —Tartaglia, from Genshin Impact
