What Is The Tsundere Dere Type In Anime?

People have various types of personalities. Similarly, anime characters do too! They are classified known as dere types. Multiple types of dere types exist. The famous ones include- Tsundere, Yandere, and Dandere. However, some character archetypes are less prominent than others. Darudere and shundere might be examples of such types. Today we will look into the meaning of the Tsundere type. I have also prepared a list of all the famous characters who belong in this category. You might even find some of your favorites on the list! Without any further delay, let us get into the details of the archetype.

Meaning Of Tsundere

If you watch romantic anime shows, you must have heard of tsundere characters. They are the best girlfriends, and all the famous waifus belong to this dere type. Tsundere characters tend to be cold and mean on the outside. However, they are extremely caring and loving on the inside.

They seem to get very awkward quickly and are most likely to hit you (playfully) in such situations. Although their intentions are always good, it is hard for the other person to understand their feelings mainly because they are not quite expressive and tend not to speak up about them. Tsundere characters are harsh most of the time. However, once you get to know them, you will fall in love immediately. Most of the time, they go through significant character development once the show proceeds.

Types Of Tsundere Characters

There are two types of tsundere personalities that we have come across. The first or the original one comprises harsh and cold characters but warm up to you once you get to know them.
