Yandere refers to a state or character where affection for a loved one is so intense that it causes mental instability (sickness), leading to eccentric expressions of love or obsession. Extreme Possessiveness and Dependency: Loving someone so much they try to cut off the other person's relationships or bind them excessively, wanting to be the only one looked at. Intense Duality: Usually devoted and quiet, but can show a crazed side out of jealousy if the loved one talks to others. Love-Driven Recklessness: Based on the psychology of "doing anything for their sake," it can sometimes escalate to violent behavior or stalking.

Has a sister complex. Jokingly aims for Hijikata's life and position (because his sister Mitsuba loved Hijikata and the feeling was mutual, but Hijikata rejected her, leading to a love-hate grudge). Sharp-tongued, sadistic, and listless. A total sadist. Calls Gintoki "Danna" (Boss). He is yandere for you and one of the severe cases.
