This week's poll comes from our member Homura_Heart. It requires a bit of knowledge of terminology, some of which isn't that common (even in our niche of manga). If you really wanna answer this poll, I suggest you Google each term first. I won't bother trying to explain it all here. And honestly, I'm not expecting that many voters this week.

You can submit poll ideas here (and try to keep them manga/anime-related)

For the new poll, how about the option "I have no idea what any of these words mean."

Kuudere, obviously. I can't stand any of the other types, but both male and female kuuderes are very cute.

But I can guess which one is going to win even without looking at the votes so far. No wonder practically every other manga has a tsundere as the love interest.

This poll has just expanded my vocabulary.

Dandere, because it's endearing to watch and root for their struggles to express their feelings to their beloved.

Also because I'm dandere myself.

Yandere~

I think this character is the kind of hardest to make. I mean how she/he can still be yandere and be loved by the the person that she/he loves

Difficult to decide. My favorite female character (Misaka) would be categorized as "Tsundere".

On the other hand, I hate a lot of other tsundere, especially the abusive type who can't say anything besides pre-made generic tsundere phrases. I hope I don't have to listen to Kugimiya Rie's voice ever again.

Only Kuu, Tsu and Yan can be counted as "actual" tropes. The rest are TV tropes rubbish.
I also didn´t vote. Kuudere comes closest to be of interest to me but all are abysmal clichés and quite worn out too. Don´t write tropes, write characters.

I know tsu kuu and yan but what are the rest?

Nonsense rubbish that random web treads made up, as they can´t talk about manga in the language of actual humans. Here are the "meanings": http://www.hxchector.com/all-dere-types-anime-manga/
I have tried a few thousand different manga and anime over the last 2 decades. You know that shit went of the rails if people as me have too look up "fan-terms".
PS: Dear community. Please stop using the word MC, especially in summaries. What you mean is protagonist.

Im glad the only romance I read is yuri so Im free from most dere nonsense.

Same here. I looked up the link you shared, because I had no idea what the options mean, but now I'm confused again. Aren't Kuudere and Coodere the same thing according to that article (and Visual novel database).

I went to the type of library school that tough you about genres and stiff, not 4Chan doublespeak.

I prefer them to be deredere ("lovey dovey") all the time really... without those tsun, kuu, yan and rest of the bullshit...

Since when are 'kuudere' and 'coodere' not just different spellings?

Where is 'deredere'?

What if I don't like any kind of dere and want someone with no love in their heart?

I call shenanigans with this poll.
