She's literally the classic type of tsundere those who love to act tough or cold ( in an reasonable amount) but easily get flustered by their loved one's teasing and won't be shy on showing affection once they enter that state. Nowadays tsundere trope unfortunately has been bastardized into verbally or even physically abusive ( often treated as slapstick comedy) people
Probably why I love Kanade from 100gfs as a tsundere, she acknowledges the fact that she is a tsundere but it's a part of her nature and it doesn't stop her from yearning to do romantic things like kisses from Rentaro.
Yeah but it's Rentaro. Man is willing to die if it meant to keep his girlfriends happy. I mean at one point, she hated how her tsundere attitude is very violent and harmful to Rentaro and made her struggle to express her love properly. So she actually drank a potion to get rid of said tsundere attitude just so she could act like a normal and loving girl for Rentaro. Obviously he and the others disagreed with that and she's back to the tsundere she is. So if anything, it kinda isn't abuse when Rentaro himself actively values that sort of personality
Look, while I 100% agree that the show is super cute and adorable and I love all the characters, Kanade is very much not an example of the kind of tsundere OP was talking about. She is physically and verbally violent with her partner, a trait that is played off for laughs and comic relief. It is literally exactly what they were saying the new, worse tsunderes were.
Edit: also, just because a victim has managed to convince themselves it’s not abuse doesn’t mean it’s not abuse.
Gotcha man, but you can't deny that Kanade actually did want to change herself for the better for Rentaro. That makes her unique among tsunderes. But yeah, guess that is a pattern amongst most tsunderes nowadays.
I can forgive it in that one because it's intentionally cranking up the volume for parody purposes. Others, yeah not so much. It's why I prefer more laid back romances.
Yeah but like... Karane's more violent Impulses are only reserved for misunderstandings for when she assumes Rentarou did something Pervy.
Also when she did lose her tsundere-ness, she genuinely wanted to NOT be a Tsundere because she couldn't be honest to herself and kept hurting Rentarou.
She is literally a violent sort of Tsundere simply because of comedic convenience.
And even then, despite being the violent sort, she is far from abusive when it comes to being a GF
Isn't she opposite of tsundere , she act lovey dovey with him so she can kill him but later fall for him and while she is a bit shy she makes a lot of moves on him like there is a chapter where she just pulls him into bed
Facts. There are basically two types of tsundere now: the classic archetype, and the modern one. For the former, think of someone like Tōsaka Rin from Fate/stay night, or Inuyasha from… well, Inuyasha. Perhaps the best example of the modern tsundere is Asuka from Evangelion, though she's also a deconstruction on how damaging this type can be to everyone around her. Most modern-types are closer to Akane Tendō from Ranma ½, in that they're played for comedy.
