| Obviously they're big tsunderes themselves... xD |
| Western dude here, I live for tsundere :V But tsundere characters just as any other type, can be written horrible, so not every tsundere is a good example of a good one :P |
 "So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." |
| Aren't you just generalizing'? Characters like Taiga, Asuka, Rin etc. are pretty well liked by western fans, so I don't agree at all with you. |

Doubt you are anywhere near the level of bitchiness that tsundere display in anime, and if you do then your husband is definitely a masochist. Kinda like early anime tsunderes... not so bitchy I ain't still lovable. |

Haha no. Not even Asuka is like that though and she is a huge bitch. I noticed modern tsunderes suck. |

| I don't get it either, tsunderes are easily the best character archetype. Westerners seem to like cutesy, personality-devoid characters like Mashiro Shiina |

| Dunno where you're getting your information that people in Asia actually love tsunderes. Like seriously, I've lived in Asia before for a number of months in a couple different countries and I'd never met anyone who seemed particularly favoured towards them or anything. Unless you mean Asia=Japan, and Japan=the people in Japan who watch anime which is actually a lot smaller percentage than you probably think it is... then yeah, you're probably right about that. |
| I'm Asian and I would not like to associate with a real-life tsundere more than necessary. Tsunderes are not bad, but in some anime like Love Hina the MC gets beaten up and doesn't give a damn about it, is really irritating. Cold but caring heroines are fun to watch abut overdramatised tsunderes are just bumps in the road of storytelling. |

| Personally don't like tsunderes because it reminds me of immature brats that don't get their way. |
 |
| Annoying, plain stupid, unrealistic , completly childish. |
 |
| I can't speak for others, but I don't like people when they act like a little cunt. That shouldn't really be too surprising. It's one thing for someone to act shy and embarassed about their feelings, but when they get physically and verbally abusive to try and cover up for them? I don't understand the appeal in that at all. It's funny every now and then for a little humour, but when you have characters like Kirino, the only thing they deserve is a knife dragged across their throat because they're fucking terrible people who deserve any negativity thrown their way. It's also an archetype devoid of any actual personality, so that automatically lessens my like for them anyway. A tsundere is a character you'll find in so many anime, with little to distinguish from others of the same archetype. This goes for all of the -deres, of course. Make real characters with actual feelings, reactions and personalities, rather than going down a Pokémon-esque checklist of what you've got and what you've not. |
 It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether! It's an entirely different kind of flying. |
| I love Taiga but I fucking abhor Kouko from Golden Time some characters just get more development than others too |

Kezone said: Personally, I don't really like the whole "tsundere" "yandere" ect thing in the first place. I think, judging a character just by what category they happen to fall into, doesn't make much sense. Sometimes it makes sense within the story for a character to have traits one would mark as tsundere, and often that does not make up the entirety of their character and they have plenty besides that trait to offer, so I do like some "tsundere characters". If all they have is that archetype, then I usually do dislike them, yes, because they aren't good/well developed characters, but that goes the same for the other "dere" categories. Does that make sense? Exactly the same for me. Robiiii said: They are just so fucking boring. I want to see an anime where a tsunbitch gets slapped for once. Insta-fav that. |

| But I like tsuns, granted I prefer the ones that say 'b-baka' and blush a lot more then the violent ones but I like both Favorite tsuns! |

| I can understand why some don't like tsuns. Not me though, I'm from the west and I like me some tsunderes. |

| What? I'm pretty sure Westerners like them better than Japan does. Westerners are the ones who hilariously rationalize them as "strong women" when they're anything but. |

I haven't seen her anime to the end, but she seems like an ordinary antagonistic sibling. Not unlike my relationship with my little brother when it was at the worst. And of course, nowhere like the totally unrealistic little sisters of other anime. Kirino is nowhere the level of, say, Sugou/Oberon "the butterfly guy" from SAO. I wouldn't be sure it's the same people, but some people do want a rapist protagonist in harems, and bad guy protagonists overall. They must be crazy. Sometimes I think they're reacting to the prevalence of feminism in the west. I don't understand them. SweetBakchich said: Yep, it's totally cool to hit the male friend if you're pissed about something, that just makes you cute, and your male friend sticks around anyway ! Or my favorite : You never lock the door of your room when you're getting dressed, a guy opens the door and sees you half naked but he didn't mean to. All hell breaks loose, and the man gets beaten up and is called a pervert by some dumb asshole who can't be bothered to lock a door or see that her friend didn't mean to see her half naked. How do these characters have friends anyway ? I really don't get it. Because she doesn't lock the door, and the male friend gets a free show regularly? |
SweetBakchich said: You really think that a girl and a boy are real friends if she's being a bitch 24/7 and the guy only puts up with it because he gets to see a flash of her panties from time to time ? And most of the time, the guy does not even mean to see anything. Tsundere aren't being bad 24/7. That's why they're tsundere. |
| It depends which tsundere whe are talking about, i like Chitoge, Taiga, the girl from Netoge. But there are some tsunderes people and i dont like, normally they are the girls who fall in love with the MC too quickly, irracionally, with no reason. Also when they dont grow as a characters or does shamefull and irritating actions that isnt like a tsundere, just like a bitch! I hate when the tsundere of a show in a nutshell is some girl who keeps abusing the MC for ilogical and retarded reasons and only fall into one misconception after another one. Worst is when she is more tsun side but goes to the dere side and is more irritating that the another counterpart of her. |

flymccann said: They aren't nearly as hated in Asian countries, in fact tsunderes are quite loved there. Maybe a cultural difference? are tsunderes loved in real life japan or animu version of japan? because I don't like tsunderes because I don't like violent, self entitled ass dicks/bitches. I would think this human trait of not liking an asshole would exist in other parts of the world as well -_- |

| i just realized one of most popular mongoloid folklore has tsundere'ish character in it o_O.... is there any equivalent to it in western? |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| Westerners always want's to be on top they don't wan't women dominating them and you do know how tsundere's are. As for me though I don't hate tsundere's but being too annoying can get into my nerves sometimes. |

| I guess its because westerners tend to say whatever is on their mind without beating around the bush, so when they see something like a tsundere who can't get their shit together and just say whatever the fuck they want to say, but instead do it in the most unnecessary way possible or not at all wasting our time looking at the screen for 5 minutes just to see this hoe walk away while saying 'BAKA' is truly highly annoying. Thats only my opinion tho. |
| Cat is fine too. Seriously though, aggressive girls are the best girls not just because of sex (mainly lol). |
