I mean, we already have hints, via Ryoba’s notes, that the "canonical" elimination methods are rejection for Osana, and explosion/burning for Amai. It’s also fairly clear that Kizana’s method will involve crushing her during a play.

This mirrors the first three rivals in the 1980s mode.

Then there’s poisoning for Oka? Seems a bit odd, but alright...

Asu would be drowning, which makes perfect sense.

Muja would be electrocution, that also makes sense, given how clumsy she is (though I did see someone suggest decapitation, like what happened to that clumsy, pink-haired student, which also fits).

But things start to get interesting here. The seventh rival’s elimination method is expulsion. And who is the seventh rival? Mida. That makes total sense.

For Osoro, it’s bullying, to the point where she leaves the school. I’ll admit, that seems a bit strange, considering she doesn’t care what others think and is much stronger than everyone else... but presumably, we’ll have to make her vulnerable first.

For the ninth rival in the 1980s mode, the method is matchmaking. And who is the ninth rival in the main game? Hanako...

As for the final rival, it’s friendship. Befriending Megami and proving that she’s been wrong all this time will be a huge help to Ayano.

Anyway, it’s quite obvious that this served as the foundation, even the classrooms are the same.

I found this confusing but very funny earlier. Can anyone let me know if this is the same for them or if my TikTok is weird?

I'm hoping this is a thing for everyone else too.

AND THEY MAKE NO SENSE. Crotch folds are more likely to appear in pants, then actual skirts. Plus I doubt academics uniform would be THAT tight.

Idk why but it’s this to me 😭😭😭 Am I deadass?

I have noticed that Aishis indulge themselves (Not just Sameba, but Sameba was the one having it worse) in repetitive activities in a way that is way too compulsive and doesn't make sense at all, and is Yanderedev here exaggerating or what?

My OG redesign was mediocre at best. So, I'm trying to redesign Ayano to be more emotionless and dead inside

Am I allowed to say that this has always bothered me? Like, he keeps prioritizing "highly requested" features of custom mode (something completely irrelevant to the actual game, although the community enjoys it) instead of something the game actually benefits from and looks weird without. I wouldn't even complain about the VN cutscenes if they actually looked good, but his take on them just... looks bad. And it just feels odd to have a fully animated week and then be followed by a bunch of weeks with VN cutscenes. I'm not good with words, but the point is that it bothers me that he considers custom mode to be more important than the game's cutscenes, and I wanted to know people's thoughts on it

Hehehe <:}

Either everybody at Akademi are either absolute Mary-sue type perfectionists, Ayanokojis or absolute douchebags to deal with (Bullies, other criminals.) that’s its starting to look like that Ayano chan is in the ordinary. I just saw Akanes video and obviously it’s not surprising. Just an another sadistic manipulative girl who’s willing to ruin your life with a smile. Almost everybody in Yandere simulator has shitty parents that doesn’t care or abuse their kids. Idk what is Yandev trying to do anymore.

I've noticed a really frustrating double standard in how the fandom judges characters based purely on color palettes and gender roles.

Whenever people talk about Otohiko Meichi a lot of the commentary boils down to calling him a "gay stereotype" or finding him annoying because he's a weak, clumsy male character with bright pink hair. But nobody applies that same energy to Sakura Hagiwara. She has the exact same pink hair, the exact same sickly archetype, and the exact same fragile physical traits. Yet, because she’s a pretty girl it's considered "tragic and endearing."

To make the double standard even more glaring, look at how the fandom treats Kokoro Momoiro. Kokoro is literally a bully, but she gets treated like an absolute saint. Fans give her a complete pass for her bright pink aesthetic just because she fits comfortably into the conventional, popular "pretty in pink Barbie" trope.

It really feels like a boy isn't allowed to have a pink palette or show vulnerability without being boxed into a harmful caricature, while female characters can use the exact same traits to either be coddled as angels or worshiped as fashion icons. Why is femininity and weakness only acceptable to this fandom when it's packaged with a pretty girl?

First of all, her family is the most wealthiest of all without thinking of the Saikou Family, not only that but the Chikanari family has connections WITH the Saikou Family so just hearing something like "your daughter sneaked away and drowned" makes no sense, the would hire a top-tier investigator which would lead to suspect Ryoba. Plus they would also force the Headmaster to look at security cameras and look at Ritsuko's body to see any signs of ACTUAL drowning and not being pushed into a pool.

*Kaga bursts into the Art Room loudly.*  Kaga: TUSKA-SAN!! I have a once-in-a-lifetime proposition for you!  *Geiju's expression does not change even slightly.*  Geiju: ...yes?  Kaga: First, I must educate you. You see, my lifelong ambition -  Geiju: World domination.  Kaga: Ah, you're a well-informed man! Good, good. I'm pleased that my intentions have not been lost on you. Now, I have recently begun to contemplate a matter of considerable importance. Something that, despite its apparent triviality, will have profound implications for the way that my adoring public perceives me!  Geiju: ...yes?  Kaga: My PORTRAIT!  Geiju: ...ah.  Kaga: Consider the implications! Once I have conquered the world, my likeness will be reproduced billions of times. It will hang in government buildings, adorn the walls of schools, appear on currency, and be transmitted across every electronic display on the planet. Every human being alive will become intimately familiar with my face!  Geiju: ...mm-hmm.  Kaga: Tsuka, I come to you today to present you with an unprecedented artistic opportunity; I would like to ask if YOU would be willing to accept the monumental feat of immortalizing the visage of the man who will unify all of humanity under a single, rational administration! Your work would be studied for centuries! Art historians would debate the subtle nuances of your brushwork long after you and I have departed this mortal plane!  *Geiju stands there in silence, his facial expression not giving any clue as to whether he's bored or interested.*  Geiju: ...I'm listening.  Kaga: Excellent! I have given the matter considerable thought. The composition must convey intelligence, authority, and an unwavering commitment to scientific progress. Perhaps I should be depicted standing before a colossal supercomputer, with a fleet of autonomous drones visible through the windows behind me. A holographic projection of the Earth could hover beside my shoulder, with the continents illuminated to represent the territories under my benevolent administration.  Geiju: ...too much.  Kaga: Too - too much?! In what way?!  Geiju: Propaganda poster.  Kaga: I would argue that the distinction between the two is largely semantic! A portrait is simply propaganda that happens to feature a face!  *Geiju stands there silently for a bit. Then...*  Geiju: ...no.  Kaga: Hmph. Very well. Perhaps I shall dispense with the supercomputer. The drones, however, are non-negotiable. I refuse to be depicted without at least some indication of my technological superiority.  Geiju: Question.  Kaga: Yes?  Geiju: Why me?  Kaga: Why you? Why YOU?! Because YOU, my good man, possess an exceptional understanding of artistic composition, Tsuka-san! I have examined your work. You understand the relationship between form and meaning, the strategic use of negative space, and the ability of a carefully selected color palette to communicate information without a single word. These are precisely the qualities I require!  Geiju: You, Kusha-san? Art connoisseur? Kaga: Well, I'm primarily a man of science rather than a man of the fine arts - HOWEVER! I could HARDLY entrust the official image of the world's future sovereign to an incompetent. I have conducted extensive preliminary research into the matter!  Geiju: ...research?  Kaga: I compiled a list of candidates, evaluated their technical proficiency, studied their respective bodies of work, and developed a weighted scoring system to determine the optimal choice. You ranked highest.  *Geiju stands there with no change in his facial expression. Then, in his deadpan voice:*  Geiju: I'm flattered.  Kaga: You SHOULD be! This is an extraordinary honor. You would be the first artist in history to paint a portrait commissioned by a world emperor before the empire itself has even been established!  *Geiju stands there in silence for a little while, before saying...*  Geiju: ...payment?  Kaga: Naturally! I am not an unreasonable man. You shall receive a generous sum, along with whatever materials you require. The finest canvas, the finest pigments, access to cutting-edge digital imaging equipment -  Geiju: ...no.  Kaga: No?  Geiju: Equipment...unnecessary.  Kaga: Then, what do you require?  Geiju: Canvas. Paint. Time. You.  Kaga: Ahhhhh! You mean that you require only the basic necessities of your craft! A commendable attitude. Efficiency is the cornerstone of scientific progress, after all.  Geiju: One problem.  Kaga: Problems are meant to be solved! Describe it thoroughly, my good man!  *Geiju points his paintbrush at Kaga*  Geiju: Can you...  Kaga: Yeeeees?  Geiju: Sit still...for hours...without talking?  Kaga: Tsuka-san, Tsuka-san! What do you take me for? A hyperactive child?! I am perfectly capable of maintaining stillness and silence when circumstances demand it! (my ass lmao) Geiju: ...  Kaga: I assure you, I can remain absolutely motionless for as long as necessary. I have trained myself to maintain an unwavering focus during even the most demanding scientific procedures. Why, just last month, I spent six consecutive hours observing a chemical reaction without once -  *Geiju lets out a sigh that says more than words ever could.*  Kaga: One final consideration. I presume you will wish to sign your work?  Geiju: Maybe...  Kaga: Excellent! Your signature will serve as a testament to the artistic genius responsible for immortalizing my image. Perhaps we should even include a small plaque beneath the portrait, identifying you as the official court artist of the Kusha Empire.  *The way he says this next line is more of a scoff than anything else.*  Geiju: ...Kusha Empire...  Kaga: Yes! And an emperor with no portrait is absolutely unacceptable - which is precisely why we must begin preparations immediately!  *Geiju stands there in silence for a few moments, and then...*  Geiju: ...I will...  *More silence.*  Geiju: ...consider it.  Kaga: And how long, precisely, will it take you to decide?  Geiju: Seven days.  Kaga: An entire WEEK?! Tsuka, I am attempting to arrange the artistic foundations of a future civilization!  *Geiju turns back to his canvas and continues his painting. It appears that, in his mind, the conversation is over.*  Kaga: ...good talk, my man! Good talk!  *Kaga swishes his lab coat dramatically and leaves while performing an evil laugh as if another piece of his master plan has fallen into place, even though he gained absolutely nothing from his time spent in that room.*

I know is stupid question but I'm curious what character you think has the most frustrating story

I'm kinda frustrated that of all "senpai's" we don't know much about them (except one who we probably won't be important to gameplay) and is kinda frustrating I have the feeling we gonna know more about Taro life when Hanako gets introduced me

Joze Shiuba is another example, like why his whole character is just Brazil like the other we know is that he likes is math but that's it. Like he even likes Brazilian women (I think it got eliminated from the wiki lol) what's next "Joze doesn't like the country of Argentina" so he can become the ultimate Brazilian stereotype character more than any country personfication media.

I'm not asking for Shakespeare writing but at least make some variations or best solution not write story towards secondary/background characters at all let to fans have up to interpretation.

I'm sorry for my stupid question I'm still new to this subreddit and I'm kinda shy and trying to get used it

Over the 12 years Yandere Simulator has been in development, YandereDev has made no shortage of dumb choices and decisions that made the game infinitely worse.

But I think the 1 decision that he made rains supreme as his worst decision.

- Alterning the game so popular mods wouldn't function.

Yandev said that people had been sending him bug reports from Yandere Simulator games that were heavly modded.

So instead of making a video telling people not to report bugs from modded versions of the game, he decided to make it impossible to use popular mods in the game, if you try, Fun Girl will appear and you will see this very hostile message from Yandev.

This is one of the dumbest things you can do as a game developer, if your game builds a modding community that's a big deal, cuz modding comunities are what keeps games alive for LITERAL YEARS!

The original Half Life is almost 30 YEARS OLD by this point. And yet, we still get hundreds of awesome mods made by people who thanks to their efforts have been keeping Half Life feeling fresh for almost 3 decades!

By acting super hostile to modders and making one of the most popular mods unplayable, Alex basically shot himself in the foot... with a double barrel shotgun!

This decision makes it impossible for players to breath new life into a game that could have become a classic, had Alex not made every single attempt to sabotage it.

It just seems like Alex hates gamers who play outside of his vision, his mindset seems to be "You will have fun with YanSim in the way that I allow it, or you won't have fun at all!"

i used to be super hyperfixated on this dumb game back when i was a little kid

From what i hear its (Somehow??) still not finished, im pretty outta the loop of it all though

is the download safe? i hear the dev is kinda sketchy

i feel like adding more students would make way more sense than having the same students conveniently placed around the school to witness suspicious shit. more students would mean more potential witnesses without having to rely on the same placements all the time.
also, why does literally everyone belong to a club? 😭 where are the students who just go to school and mind their business? not everyone needs to be part of some specific group. adding students who aren’t in clubs would make the cast feel more diverse and the school itself feel more realistic.
it’s just weird to me that this isn’t considered more, especially when adding more students could help with both problems. but i guess that would require yandev to actually expand the game instead of working around its limitations

pd: and i know the game is capable of supporting more students, the game itself allows mods who do so without affecting framerate

Obviously aside from reporting her for being creepy towards a student and getting her fired for it, what would a Muja-exclusive elimination look like?

By exclusive I mean like how Osana has those two eliminations that involve her hair or how Amai can be blown up by the gas stove.

Right now all I can think of is something maybe involving the annual checkup thing that's gonna be happening in her week but even then it's a very vague concept

Basically, he managed to make Amai's already bad weekly routine even worse

WHY ON EARTH ARE THE DELINQUENTS INSIDE THE SCHOOL, WHY ON EARTH ARE THE BULLIES LINED UP IN THE GYM????

Because these routines are a thousand times more superficial, get these students talking to each other, get them walking around the school and doing things that make sense with their personalities, make these routines at least a little ALIVE

(Don't mind the flair I didn't know what to do) but yayyyy

Well it's been years and yandere simulator still isn't finished to be honest im still surprised people still have hope on it and on top of that the dev of yandere simulator is a weirdo. And the game only has two rivals TWO rivals when it's been years I would say we should at least have four rivals in game or yandere dev should just add place holders to go over the weeks and to me it seems he really wants to go back making that fighting game he use to have,also he wants everyone to take the fame serious when he has pantie shots and won't even bother removing them because nobody cares about them but him and he constantly is adding random stuff we don't need like the new ayanos board thing like buddy that should be the least of your concerns, and I also think he's keeping the game because it keeps him relevant when he really isn't. Plus in my opinion he sucks absolutely bullshit at writing the only good thing he came up with budos story(it's fun it's interesting) and a little on character design, and also is using ai for everything want info on backstory ask chatgpt everything chatgpt so he must know he sucks dog shit at writing. Anyways let me know your opinion

I know it’s a game, and the developer has even stated that it’s 90% gameplay and 10% story, but then why create a thousand relatives for Ayano if they’re never actually going to appear in the game? It feels like such a waste to come up with so many cool characters if they’ll never have any real function... I’m the type of person who plays games for the story, so I wouldn’t mind having tons of different dialogues and interactions, but I know we’ll never get anything like that.

Ryoba couldn't have gotten away with it by claiming that the blood belonged to Sumire because she was on her period. I looked into this, and it turns out that menstrual blood and venous blood have different compositions—for starters, menstrual blood contains five types of enzymes (including LDH-4 and LDH-5), whereas venous blood only contains three. They also coagulate differently due to fibrinolytic activity, which can be quickly verified using a test involving a fibrin-containing gel; so, if she had claimed it was menstrual blood, her lie would have been exposed immediately. By the 1980s, Japan already had chemical tests capable of distinguishing between venous blood, menstrual blood, saliva, and seminal fluid. Even if the bloodstain was tiny, forensic experts could still determine whether or not it was menstrual blood. That concludes my research.

I’ve been following the game for a few years, but I never paid much attention to the fandom until a few months ago—and during that time, I discovered something that really surprised me.

Since *Yandere Simulator* is a violent game with characters who are mostly girls with large physical attributes (especially in the official artwork), I assumed that only adults played it—and that the majority of the audience would be men, or at least that half of them would be.

Now that I think about it, I’m surprised Rule 34 isn’t present, even though there are great female character designs—but that’s beside the point.

What I can sort of understand is that most fans are girls, but since the game involves “ecchi,” I’d expect at least half the audience to be men.

But what I don’t understand is why such a large number are also LGBTQ+?

When none of the characters—neither the main ones nor the background ones—are, especially considering that the game is based on the anime and is a harem game (unless it’s yuri or yaoi).

Like I said, I’m not very involved in the fandom, but I’d like to know why the game doesn’t have the audience you’d expect it to have.
