What -Dere Type Are You?
"You remembered?" One tiny gesture has made acting normal considerably harder. Now decide how your fictional romance lead handles the next complication.
22 core scenes. Several rom-com archetypes are still close. Naturally, the episode may need another scene. Up to 4 extra scenes may appear.
Meet the 17 -dere archetypes
We'll compare your choices with all 17 -dere archetypes and show the closest match plus the runner-up. If first place is tied exactly, we'll show every tied result.
Deredere
Your feelings are never a season-long mystery.
Tsundere
The compliment is ready, but a challenge or flustered comeback escapes first.
Kuudere
Even when the scene turns romantic, you keep the same calm expression and measured voice.
Dandere
You open up in quiet scenes where nobody is asking you to perform.
Hajidere
You know what you want to say right up until your crush looks directly at you.
Bakadere
Romance around you quickly becomes an arcade rivalry, a ridiculous nickname, or a snack experiment with no recipe.
Darudere
Your ideal romance could be an entire afternoon on the same sofa with no plan and no pressure to entertain each other.
Hinedere
You are not impressed by the polished entrance or the perfect line; you watch for what stays true after the music stops.
Hiyakasudere
You flirt like every ordinary moment is one perfectly timed joke away from becoming a scene.
Himedere/Oujidere
You want romance to feel special enough for its own sparkling background and dramatic entrance.
Kamidere
You enter the scene already certain of your standards, your plan, and your ability to pull it off.
Undere
Your first instinct is often, 'If it matters to you, let's make it work.'
Goudere
Once you care, you are already halfway through an ambitious plan to make their day better.
Megadere
You have no intention of hiding that you think your person is amazing.
Kekkondere
You do not need twelve episodes of vague almost-confessions when the connection already feels serious.
Mayadere
Your romance arc begins with crossed paths, guarded respect, and the suspicion that this irritating rival may actually be dependable.
Yandere
Your love story is filmed in close-up: every tiny detail remembered, every rival noticed, and every moment with your person replayed long after the ending theme.
These are fictional archetype matches, not relationship-health labels. Respect, consent, privacy, and boundaries are shared baselines.

Rom-com habits under investigation Five fictional romance questions
- Does affection show up as a quiet gesture, obvious warmth, teasing, or a suspiciously elaborate surprise?
- Do you hint until someone notices, say it plainly, or act calm while the internal monologue catches fire?
- When you like someone, does your attention stay broad, focus on them, or change as trust grows?
- Do serious plans come up early, later, or after three episodes of avoidable misunderstanding?
- For fictional drama only: is the feeling steady, newly revealed, or dialed up to impossible anime intensity?
How the result is calculated Open the full method
Eleven parts of how affection shows up appear twice across 22 original anime rom-com scenes.
- Choose the point between the two responses that fits best. The center counts as an equal choice, while Not sure is left out of the score.
- At least 18 of 22 answers must count, with at least one answer in every area. With 20 counted answers, the result has more to go on; answering all 22 uses every question.
- If an area still needs an answer, or several results are still close after the core questions, the quiz may ask up to four follow-up questions. It chooses unused scenes that fill the gap or help separate the closest results. After each answer, every possible result is compared again; none is removed from the running.
- We compare the final pattern with all 17 possible results and show the closest match plus the runner-up. If first place is tied exactly, we'll show every tied result.
Yandere is included only as a fictional story archetype. Its scenes cover exaggerated inner fixation or a self-managed jealous feeling; they never measure or excuse possessiveness, control, monitoring, stalking, privacy invasion, isolation, threats, violence, or ignoring a refusal.
Sadodere is not scored because its usual definition depends on cruelty.
