Day 17 - Favorite tsundere

What is Tsundere?

Tsundere is derived from the combination of two words – tsuntsun and deredere. Usually, it refers to a female lead.

Tsuntsun

Tsuntsun refers to being egoistic, hostile, tough. A tsuntsun would be one who always seems moody or angry and never shows any sign of hesitation or weakness.

Deredere

Deredere is the opposite of tsuntsun. A deredere character is often uncertain and needs a push to get going.


Tsundere

The combination of both tsuntsun and deredere traits is tsundere.  A tsundere is a person who starts off with a tsuntsun(tough) type personality but ends up with a deredere(uncertain, pessimistic) personality. They are the serious, highly ambitious and confident type but slowly develops or shows signs of deredere, usually developing feelings for another character and dropping the tough front.

Some of the more popular tsundere characters includes -

•Hiiragi Kagami (Lucky Star)

•Narusegawa Naru (Love Hina)

•Shana (Shakugan no Shana)

•Tohsaka Rin (Fate/Stay Night)

•Tendo Akane (Ranma 1/2)

-------<3

My pick is Narusegawa Naru of  Love Hina. A seventeen-year old gal who is one of the resident of Hinata Inn. We all know that she tends to be very physical and angry(tsuntsun) mainly with Keitaro when she feels that he is being perverted. At Keitaro's part, he just being so clumsy. That clumsiness often results in her being naked, exposed or lying in a very suggestive positions. For that, she gets ill-tempered very fast, losing her control and end up hurting Keitaro until he's up in the air(laughs).

Despite of those ecchi, funny and some hurting scenes, Naru developed feelings for Keitaro. She doesn't have the guts to even admit it to herself or to her friends about her feelings(deredere). Eventhough, sometimes she have moments with Keitaro, she end up with him with some action scenes and the next episode will progress next time....;)hihi
