Does the concept of Yandere exist in the west?

>> No.13711636

Yes, I think it originated from greek myth I think.

Obsessive love from someone to someone else.

I think that in... Butterfly Effect 2? or something, the big twist what that the MC had an Yandere Imouto. So that's something.

Disappointing he didn't hook up with her, she was cute.

That movie was fucking phenomenal
The fact that she's so specifically manipulative of her husband, trying to make him stay with her out of her love for him makes me feel that she's a lot closer to the archetype than some other western stuff I've seen

you didn't understand the film..

she had princess syndrome
when the husband didn't turn out to be mr perfect for her, she tried to ruin him
but her plan to start a second life got ruined, she got robbed of all of her money
she came up with plan b and blamed it all on the ex-bf
she got back with the husband because it was the only choice left for her to have a cushy life

that's not yandere
just egoistical and manipulative
