you took the words out of my mouth... though I actually do know a few of those

MC is shorter at 2 letters and protagonist has 11 letters

Wait, I'm confused now, if that's what coodere is than what's kuudere? TV tropes gives the definition you gave coodere to kuudere, so my question is, what's the difference?

A Kuudere is a character that acts cold and emotionless most of the time, but they slowly open up to a love interest or someone they trust.

A Coodere changes personalities and isn't limited to being cool and emotionless.

No.
There is no difference between coodere and kuudere. They are simply different spellings, of the same word. You can't find anywhere, where coodere is defined as you describe it, or where kuudere is defined as different to it.

P.S. There is no reason to regret adding yangire, given that it isn't quite a "dere". It's like yandere, but without any romantic attachments, whatsoever. Just cute smiling murder.

No one has done that.

As far as I've understood, it's more "insists on roping others into a harem that is dedicated to you", rather than "is willing to".

Exactly my thoughts. Saying that there are options missing (happens in literally every poll) or that a lot of these archetypes are stupid is not bashing anyone. For some bashing, you should've seen the breast size poll

Okay, maybe I exaggerated on that, but it looks like people are making a bigger deal than they should be.

Yes, maybe I might have exaggerated it, but still being called a " Shenanigan " isn't exactly what you call nice

Actually, instead of arguing over a simple poll about your favorite Dere type how about just forgetting all about the conflict xD
I am not trying to start a fight, I am just a very passionate person

There is a difference. They are very similar so it might be hard to tell them apart. A lot of people have their own definition of " Coodere ". Honestly, every Dere type means something different for each person, instead, of how the original person interpreted it.

Coodere link
The above definition appears to be the most correct definition of " Coodere ".
However, like I said every person has their own meaning of the Dere types. It really is how they interpret it, not what someone thinks it means.

Your link doesn't seem to differentiate between kuudere or coodere; the definition doesn't make it different to kuudere since the definition of kuudere, at least on tv tropes, is basically that one. It doesn't help that an alternate, and the usual romaji, spelling of クー is kuu.

Can you explain what the difference is?

And I get what you're trying to say about meanings since words have slightly different connotations to everyone but they all have a concrete denotation because otherwise they'd be useless.

this poll is stupid

No, not people. Just you. I don't see anyone else making a big deal out of it, or getting emotional about it.

Based on what?
I can get arguing that there would be a difference, but... based on what reason?
I don't see any.

First of all:
The forums auto-correction of URLs, tends to screw up addresses, by correcting that which is actually already correct. (it mainly ruins URLs, rather than correct them), so that link doesn't quite work. You might get it to, if you fiddle around with it a bit, though.

Anyway, I manually corrected it, and found that the page was one of the ones I found
...and to copy-paste what I've already said before:

As to "Coodere"...
I tried looking it up, but the only descriptions I found, were all the IDENTICAL copy pasted description, that describes various -dere forms, including what is obviously kuudere, just spelled with a C.

Futhermore, to add to what I copy pasted, it is mentioned as:
"クーデレ[coo-dere]"
クーデレ is kuudere. (ク= ku, ー=lengthening of the vowel, デ=de, レ=re)
That is just a fact and cannot be argued.
That is how the katakana is romanized (that, or kūdere/kûdere, which is the more officially correct way ...but not the way people usually do it)
