#yan dev

For a long time, I had strongly felt that I'd said everything I needed to say on the subject, and so I set this blog aside and focused on other matters in my life. But a friend abreast of the situation recently updated me on these latest happenings and I had to chime in again. It frustrated me to no end that I couldn't substantiate my side of the story with any definitive proof - and now the truth is plain for everyone with functioning eyes to see, at the cost of yet another minor being victimized. Who's to say how many people he's preyed on between then and now...I see comments all the time from people claiming to have had less-than-savory encounters with him or worse, and I'm sure there are many more who either don't think anything of it or are enjoying the attention who will only later realize how it's affected them. It took me years to really understand why my interactions with Eva were a big deal at the time, and making my voice heard in order to try to prevent as many people from falling victim to him as possible became the only correct course of action for me.

Without substantiative evidence, my voice only reached so far. But, finally, thanks to this girl coming forward, people are abandoning his project and leaving him to dry. Like he deserves. It's a small justice; really he should be in prison. But if some good can come out of this, if we can prevent more abuse from happening in the future, then we can breathe some small sigh of relief that things are moving in the right direction at last.

I’ve posted this on just about every single one of my social medias, but I just feel like people really need to get a grip on the situation about Yandere Dev.

I don’t understand why everyone is acting so surprised about him coming out as a child groomer and not the fact that it’s a single digit minor, a nine year old.

I’m not even surprised but I wish everyone was at LEAST shocked about that because this man has had grooming allegations beforehand,multiple times.

This is the same man who:

Made the game because he was criticized, but took it as an insult from his favorite game developers about the game he made inspired by them

Made a whole mechanic about taking non-consensual pictures of HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS PANTIES

Got mad and made a rant when people said they wanted it out of the game because it’s creepy

Heavily sexualize the outfit, especially in the artwork of his female characters

Made the skirts extremely short 

The whole thing of senpai’s sister and how it’s very incest coded 

The n@zi badges

When people talked about the panty shots and also the body pillows of these highschoolers, he said that all his characters are 18 and over butter obviously around 16 and 17 

The whole thing of him saying that he believes that minors at a certain age (which I believe was 14) should take a test and get a permit to say that they’re able to have sex with people 

Like why is this so shocking? These aren’t even all the things he has said and done. Did we all just had a memory loss orgy and shoved everything in a box in the very back of the basement? Like it’s so bizarre that we’re acting shocked about this?

One of his previous grooming allegations his excuse is that she lied about being over the age of 18. That was all he had to say.

I just needed to rant about this again because I really don’t understand why this is so shocking to the internet. He made videos on reacting to all of these.

I forgot to post these! Here’s all the rival redesigns I have so far! You can find the timelapses of them on my youtube channel! Please share and subscribe!!

I like it but don’t like it either.

I like Taro being brave enough to rip off your mask, it adds some depth to him instead of him just being a whiny bitch who sits and reads books all day. (Even though he still is because a girl standing next to him just chilling is enough for him to be a dick and be like: whaTS Up WiTh HER?? Shut the fuck up Taro I’m just standing here minding my own damn business??? Fuck off you basic hentai protagonist looking ass???) I hope that more depth is added to Taro in the future so he has more personality to him considering his desgin is lacking compared to every other male character in the game, his personality will have to pull him foreward hardcore, and I’m happy some changes are already being made towards that.

But it also seems like a forced character trait as I mentioned above. I like that you can’t just get an easy kill with the mask now that Taro grew a pair, but it doesn’t feel like.. Taro. Honestly ripping off a mask feels like something the delinquents, student council, or Budo would do, not something that Senpai would do. Senpai has never been shown as this macho brave dude, he’s always been shown as a soft, sweet booknerd who would rather have his nose buried in a book when talk to people. To have him suddenly be brave but ONLY if you’re wearing a mask seems foolish. I think the make the mask thing work he needs a stronger more set in stone personality because right now he just doesn’t.

His he sweet or is he tough? Heart of Gold or Morally Grey? Is is a coward (shown by most of his interactions with blood gore ect.) or is he brave. If he’s a coward, will he stay a coward or will he become brave with character development instead of being a static character. This is one of the most basic questions a creator must make when first desgin a character for a story. I feel like yandev has missed this very important step though and it’s clear to me that he doesn’t know what he wants to do with Taro personality wise because he can’t make up is mind. I think an important part of him moving foreward with the game is to get a concrete personality to Taro. A lot of fans have already expressed (myself included) that they don’t care about Taro and would rather their Senpai be someone like Otohiko, Hazu, Budo, or pretty much every other male character. There’s a reason for that, and it’s because all the other male characters have a concrete personality along with an interesting desgin. Otohiko is a soft sickly boy, Hazu is anxious, Budo is brave and kind, The occult boys are shy book nerds. Senpai doesn’t really have a personality as concrete. While fluid personalities are realistic, theirs a limit that I think Senpai as crossed where it’s to the point that we DONT know WHAT his personality is.
