Sharing a cute fan-made animation

A Japanese fan of Yandere Simulator has produced a video that is so cute, I just had to share it on my blog immediately:

It’s a parody of a video named “Kero” from 11 years ago. Want to hear an interesting coincidence? Earlier this month, I had this song stuck in my head, but couldn’t remember the name. At the exact moment that I was trying to remember the name of this song, somewhere out there in the world was working on a Yandere Sim fan video incorporating that exact song. The universe is funny sometimes!

Watching this video, I think it actually features every single student of 202X Mode. If the video’s creator actually managed to incorporate all 90 of 202X’s students into the video, that’s incredibly impressive!

Oh, you want a development update? I’ll say this: I’ve been getting very few bug reports recently, which means that I’ve been able to focus more time on my checklist items and less time fixing bugs. What a relief! (This also tells me that the game has finally become extremely stable and bug-free. That year of bug fixes really paid off!) Unless something important happens over the next 2 weeks, the next time you’ll hear from me will probably be March 31st for a blog post – and possibly a video – to discuss Yandere Simulator’s 9th anniversary of development.

  1. Hey YanDev! I know you’ve been wanting to implement more varried stand-in tasks, and Im super excited for that. Ive thought of a couple you might like the idea of, or you could put a spin on perhaps ^.^
    Perhaps the bully students could ask you to steal a random girls phone, so they can look through it for something to gossip about.
    Perhaps the occult students could ask YanChan to go look at one of the creepy locations in the school, or bring them something creepy (a picture of a ghost?)
    Perhaps the science club could ask yandere chan to make something in the chemistry lab?
    And perhaps the gardening club could ask YanChan to water various bushes outside the school?
    Hope these help to inspire you!

    • i feel like mai waifu should ask yout o get an accessory, to better fit her “anime style” and then later in gameplay that accessory can be worn around school like casually or spark dialogue between mais friends asking how she got it

    • Dev said he didn’t want any more “bring me something” tasks.
      It might be:
      – one where you use the game club machine, to beat someone’s score.
      – one where you use the piano, to teach a song.
      There are so many features in the institute that could be used for missions.

    • I think the swimming club can ask Yan chan to clean the gym or the pool for them. and perhaps the cooking club can ask her to give snacks to some students.

  2. Hello Yanderedev, I wanted to ask you if you would like to do a story mode focused on the first Yandere? That is, a way that is focused on Ryoba’s mother, how and why she became a yandere, that is to say a 1950’s way, something like that or maybe one from much earlier, it’s just an idea. By the way, did you start developing Amai a long time ago, or are you going to prepare everything for the Crowdfunding Campaign first? Greetings!

    • The progenitor of the Aishi Condition was born in the 1700s. The first woman to have the Aishi condition was born in the 1800s. A “First Yandere” story would bet set hundreds of years before Ayano’s story takes place.

      I haven’t begun work on Amai yet. (I’ve explained why many times…)

  3. Do you think you’ll ever consider adding a way to customize your yandere like how you can customize your senpai at the beginning of the game? or even simply changing the gender of the yandere or senpai?

      • Please let us have female senpai, otherwise the game can get kinda boring. Especially for someone who isnt into guys its kinda lame having to play as a yandere obsessed with a boy

      • I would like to allow the player to choose the gender of their Senpai, but in order to implement a female Senpai, I would need to pay a voice actress to record female versions of Senpai’s voice lines, and I would need to pay an animator to create female versions of Senpai’s animations. That would be hundreds of voice lines and hundreds of animations, which would probably cost thousands of dollars. So, I would only be able to implement a female Senpai if Yandere Simulator’s upcoming crowdfunding campaign is a massive success and raises an extra large sum of money.

  4. Hey YandereDev. I love the game so far, I’m having so much fun! By the way I just thought of a task for Miyuji Shan and some possible dialogue for it. It involves Miyuji accidently breaking a string on her guitar, and Ayano has to find a replacement.

    Here’s some dialogue so you can get a feel for what I meant.

    (Ayano walks up to Miyuji and asks her if she needs help)
    Miyuji: Actually yes, I do… While practicing on my guitar I broke one of the strings.
    Miyuji: I can’t continue practicing without that string, it’s a key one for our most recent song!
    Miyuji: Can you find some sort of wire or thread I can use as a replacement?
    (If you decline): That’s ok… I’m sure I’ll find something…
    (If you accept): Oh, you’ll help me? Thank you, if you find one, let me know!
    (Upon completing the task): Kick-ass! You found one, thank you so much! Now I can get back to shredding!

    • It’s not necessarily a bad idea, but I think that guitars require an extremely specific type of string, so I’d prefer to come up with an alternate idea for her task.

      • Understandable, guitars do have specific strings, but I was thinking that she’d use a temp string until she could get it replaced. Still though, love the game! When the crowdfunding starts, I’ll make sure to contribute!

  5. Hi yanderedev ! i was hoping to ask you something, i know you already said that joining the bullies won’t be a possibility in the future, but i wanted to ask that, if the crowdfunding campaign works really well, could you please reconsider this possibility ? as well as for joining the sutdent council by the way ! O and if you’ve already answered to something similar before, my apologies in advance… Have a nice day !

    • For a long time, I have been considering the possibilities of allowing the player to join the bully clique or become a member of the student council. I would like to give the player the ability to join those two groups, but it’s not a high priority to me at this point in time. It’s something that potentially won’t happen until sometime after the crowdfunding campaign.

  6. Hey Yandev! Quick thing – What if, to gossip in general, you have to befriend Hoshiko, and then a new option displays on Ayano’s computer to gossip? Or a requirement to join the bullies, you have to have posted at least one, two rumors maybe?

    If you don’t already have a task for Hoshiko, it could be getting the rumors and pranking students to put on the hate blog, so that counts as your first post. But to show you’re active, you have to prank others – Like getting Osana’s phone, you could take a picture of her getting soaked by the water trap bucket and post it later. Like club activities t the end of the day?

  7. Hello yan-dev I am soooo interested in the rivals you made its so creative hopefully one day you make more videos about them story based so we can know more about them !

  8. YanDev, I have a small idea for the game.
    Within the ways to eliminate your rival, there’s only ways to do it with you alone. But what if the mindslave could assist in some of these eliminations, such as if it’s Raibaru, they’d hold her back, allowing you to kill Osana, and then end Raibaru. But a con could be, it’d risk a small chance, like 5% of the mindslave turning on you, but in either scenario the mindslave would end up dead.

    Also will there be a chance to swap the gender of a rival before you begin the game?
    Like Osana, would be replaced with her male counterpart and the rest of the rivals could be female? Just some small idea, but have a good day Yandere Dev!

  9. Hello YandereDev, i have a task idea for Kokoro Momoiro.

    (Ayano walks up to Kokoro and asks her if she needs help)

    Kokoro: Well… I do.
    You wont believe me but..I want to get away from my friends..
    You know…I have been apart of the bullies a long time ago..but i cant take it any longer!
    You see…before i joined them…I used to be theyre bully victim..
    And they teased me a lot..But since they found a new target..they started to bully another girl..
    And i was scared to be bullied again by them so i decided to join them so i wont face bullying again..
    So i started acting like them..being a bully..having a fake tan..dyed hair.make up and so many stuff like that!
    But i actually hate to gossip and bully..but i have no choice!
    I want to leave theyre clique so bad!…but, if i do…they are gonna bully me again!
    So i know this will be diffucult for you,but..,
    Can you help me to leave this clique?

    Accept: Really?! Its hard but thank you!
    Decline:Oh..its ok..i understand..

    it doesnt matter if you use my sentences or not. The idea of mine was about Kokoro backstory and to help her leave it.

    My idea for how to do the task is either to lower all of the bullies reputation (Not Kokoro tho) to minus 100 so they can withdraw and never come back or kill all of them (not Kokoro) which means they are either considered missing (if they are considered dead Kokoro will be suspicious probably) and yeah.I know my idea sounds horrible and non sense but i tried

  10. Why if you eliminate your rival in 80’s Mode, won’t appear in the title screen in spite of 202X Mode. Why don’t you uptade the icons of the Content Checklist in 80’s Mode?

  11. Hey Yandere Dev! I found a bug.. It doesn’t affect gameplay at all but its more a weird logic thing. During cleaning time when Raiburo and Osana are cleaning around the fountain, when they go to lean down to scrub the floor they collide into each other. Once again it doesn’t affect gameplay but its just kind of strange.
