If I'm Male, I Can Avoid a Yandere, Right?

Synopsis
Cold horror gripped my heart when I finally admitted out loud: I'm in a dating sim filled with yanderes.
I quickly sat up.
As much as I love the game and enjoyed the characters, there's no way in hell will I follow any of the routes. All of them lead to pain and some even death! I don't want to die or get raped! But, I don't know if I'll be forced to. There's no neutral ending, after all, and even if there was, I don't think it would be any better than the other endings.
What do I do?
A light bulb lit up.
If I'm male, I can avoid a yandere, right?
Getting transported into a dating sim is a girl's wish! But, as they say, be careful what you wish for. Our female lead, who goes by Haruka in her otome games, gets that wish. So, what's the catch? It's the game full of yandere characters and bad “good endings.”
Thinking she'll go back to her world at the end of the game timeline, she decides she'll be a guy to bypass any affection. Smart, right?
Silly girl forgets there is no neutral ending. She is the Main Character, and there is no escape.
Updates: Uhhhh, I try, lol. Taking it at my own pace, which mean irregular updates.
Warnings: Many curse words and some violence. Uh, gets a bit sexual later, but nothing extreme.
Oh, and since I get people constantly trashing or complaining about my MC, I’ll warn you now that she is a “pushover.” A great target for yanderes, if you will. So leave if that isn’t your cup of tea, thank you.

Scrolling around for web novels, I was not expecting much from this novel, but I found a jewel in the haystack. I honestly love this novel. It’s so unique and different from the cliched “isekai to an otome game” novel. The writing style is great, only a few typos, the character development is amazing. The author has put in a ton of effort into these characters and the plot. Every time Haru interacts with each of the characters, I always get so excited because I never know what to expect. Their interactions are way better than what I predict, which is very rare. I loved how the author added a “potential love target” because it keeps u guessing about him. Is he really another yandere or is he a normal guy trying to protect the FL? I’m still contemplating whether he’s someone to trust or not. I think it’s cute how the author added the little twist about the FL crossdressing to not attract the love targets, but I honestly think she couldve used another method to not attract them. Not only that, but I feel kinda uncomfortable that the FL’s parents aren’t really there for her, and it isnt really explained why they’re abroad for such a long time. In addition, it’s kinda weird that the FL doesnt really care much about her previous life. Its like she didnt really care about being isekai’d to a new world. Overall, I love this novel. It kinda reminds me of “Death Is The Only Ending For The Villainess”. They are both such a cruel reality, but very unique and twisted... I really like it >:) Keep up the good work author!
This was truly an entertaining and interesting read. The author really knows how to keep readers interested and connect with the audience. So far, Akira is my favourite character and Yuu & Haru are my least favourite. You may be wondering why the protagonist is one of my least favourite characters… this is mostly due to her push-over tendencies. Although she is quite intelligent (as seen in her internal monologues) her actions seem to completely defy all common sense. Her desire to please others is SO powerful that she’s willing to appease people who plan to either to dissect her, keep her locked in a basement, beat her, r*pe her, or etc. This makes the story EXTREMELY frustrating to read. While I understand that this is simply her personality (probably results from some childhood trauma??) and is basically one of the only things keeping the plot moving forward, this made the story very difficult for me to read. It’s now reached the point where if she dies, I can’t help but blame her for her horrible decision making skills. I’ve truly never read a story where I hate the protagonist THIS MUCH, but still feel compelled to keep reading the story. If you plan on reading this novel, please prepare yourself to have you patience tested to extreme limits. If you’re able to look past the main characters many downfalls, you’ll find yourself very entertained by this story.
MC is mentally retarded. ..................................................................
I love this so much! She is so relatable in her reactions. I'm curious as to how she is going to deal with the capture targets moving forward. I can't wait for the rest!
Here a fanart from me, What I like about your work: a)Haruka(mc) is relatable and her dialogue is simply hilarious?! b)The author makes a fascinating job in MLs' pasts and personalities on how they become yandere. Most people seem to cut short of yandere tendencies so they look the same to me. But this author doesn't make the same slip. Nuh-uh. Which placed the author, Queen in my eyes c)Most otome games have hidden chara(HC) which include this game mc isekaied. So, this give thrilled to mc and us, reader since mc don't finish the game. This gave us a dose of paranoia to doubt everyone in MC radar as HC. It likes playing "among us" but in the novel. d)The world-building is good I guess(?) Well, it otome game which most focus on capture targets and love development. What do you expect? At least, it makes some sort of sense since it was a modern high school Japan drama(that don't have mafia, secret societies, lab rat experiment, magic, quirk and superheroes/magical girl)
So far the story line is really good! I'm looking forward to seeing her interaction with Ryuu >_< Hopefully she won't have a bad ending. 🙏🙏
I chanced upon this story and the title made me curious enough to give it a try despite being clueless about this genre. The first chapter thankfully explained clearly what the story was all about, specially for a novice like me. Since then, I haven't been able to stop reading. The characters and their back stories are interesting and the writing is wonderful...laced with humour and intrigue. The MC's inner dialogue is simply gold! The story flows really well, there's suspense and fear for the MC as well. I'm living your work and all characters except Yuu...he's really creepy and looks non salvageable. Ryuu and Tanaka can be reformed I believe, but tbey obviously have that obsessive and possessive traits as yanderes. Akira is a mystery for now but I wouldn't trust his friendly harmless facade blindly. It seems the gender of MC doesn't really matter to the targets. I'm enjoying your work and would recommend this to everyone. Good luck and keep up the amazing work!
I LOVE THIS STORY SOOO MUCH AND I REALLY WANT THIS TO BE A LEGIT ANIME OR SOMETHING UGHHHHH I HAVE BURNING PASSION FOR THIS BOOK!!! CONTINUE WRITING TO YOUR HEARTS CONTENT!! I always get bursts of energy to continue making art after reading this story and I really appreciate it so thank you. :)
I'm liking it so far, well written and builds up ******* well for later chapters, only seen first 5 chapters like, however i like the chapters so far.
I'm into a couple of chapters of this novel and its going pretty well. The story flows really smoothly and I barely spot any grammar mistakes which means the author either have godly editing skills or is just a really fine writer. I hardly find novels like these so it makes me really happy that I have found this among thousands of other novels. Thanks a lot, SkyHighLimits! 😄😄
This story is just awesome despite having only a few chapters. It has things I love: Otome Game, Yandere, and a MC that just wants to live away from her possible lovers but Fate ain’t having it! 🤣 I highly recommend this to others who love these kinds of stories!
Five stars ⭐️. Well deserved. the characters designs in this book are…unique. A fun read book, it makes you experience different emotions. Just love the author’s writing style. My favorite thing about this book is how it makes you smile 😊 and relief you from your bad mood, also the Authors transitions are the best. Lol 😂
Not my favorite theme, but really good in what it’s meant to be, also it seems(can’t be too sure yet) the story will go in the direction of the MC “curing” the yanderes, so if you want to see a twisted “happy ending” of the MC accepting the yandere you might be disappointed(again, this is not a problem of quality, just genre preference)
Its about Yanderes.... It makes my heart race.... The scenes with them over time becomes more intense ti the point I feel like my heart is gonna explode and when reading you can basically feel the MC's feelings. Also the MC's monologues are the best and cutest.... Its quite funny too. And the story gets a bit scary.... but its about yanderes so... well that is something that makes sense... Honestly Author-sama..... I am addicted to this story.... Did you pull a Yuu-kun on me??? Well ... I need more chappies author.... Thank you for a wonderful story... You are honestly awesome because this novels is one of the only good yandere books I have come across... It feels realistic in a way.... The characters are fleshed out and the MC is honestly quite interesting. I am gonna root for the MC..... MC all the best Author-sama Arigato for writing. You da best

I'm not really good at writing reviews but i can tell you that this novel will make you fall in love with it. I really love this novel it is one of my favorites❤️
I don't get why the main character is such a wimp. Or, rather, why is tutoring a delinquent no biggie and telling someone "Man, stop being so clingy, you are creeping me out." is not an option?
ngl, this is the first time I've read a book continuously non-stop because i have a very short attention span so i tend to stop reading when it's too long but this, this got me hooked and I couldn't be happier
Initially, my expectations for this story weren’t high. I was searching for a good gender-bend novel and ended up with so much more!! I love the suspense and how the characters are written (seriously can’t get enough of Ryuu). While the writing isn’t perfect and could use some more editing, I find it very enjoyable to read. Despite not being beautifully done the writing style is very lax and easy to read. the story progression has been moving at a comfortable pace and isn’t difficult to follow. Overall, I’d say this is a good read and readily recommend it to anyone who’s still on the fence. Creative concept with for the most part likeable or satisfying characters. ☺️
I've been looking for good stories about yanderes and this one has been a favorite of mine after i found it. Excited for each chapter to come out!
I gotta say, this story really checks off all my boxes. I’ve been looking for a female -> male crossdressing story(why are these so rare?!) and I’ve not been disappointed yet. Other than just happening to be a gender bender(this just happened to be on my list of things I wanted to read), the story has a lot going for it. The pacing is pretty good overall: not too fast, not too slow. The different events of the story happen at the right times without seeming forced. Character: now this? This is a lot of fun. The yandere character has always been fascinating to me, similar to how Haruka felt at the beginning of the story. Their pasts and personalities are usually interesting to watch unfold. This book more so than others because the MC actually goes and starts ‘fixing’ them. Kinda. She’s getting started on Ryuu at least. Tatsuya’s got the potential to be fixed as well. Buuut Yuu’s kinda a lost cause so far... *Cough* anyways! World building is the next topic! It’s what you’d expect from an otome game story, so not much I can say here. The story takes place in ‘our world’ (it’s not a fantasy world), so there’s not much to really write. Despite that, or really because of that, the world it takes place in just kinda makes sense, ya know? It’s not like some crazy fantasy world with crazy magic systems that get really complicated. Don’t get me wrong, those can be great and I actually really love them! They’re just hard to write and get into sometimes. Writing Style: this is beautiful. I love the way Author-san writes! It has a clean flow from each sentence/paragraph/chapter. The story flows and Haruka’s thoughts and reactions are just a blast to read! Overall: 10/10. If or when Author-san decides to write another story, I will almost definitely be on board with it.
