Students



These NPCs typically attend Akademi High School, the main setting of Yandere Simulator.

Most students follow a specific movement pattern. Currently, the only students that do not have specific movement patterns are Yandere-chan (The player character), Info-chan (Not implemented yet), delinquents (Incomplete interaction), the placeholder club leaders (Incomplete interaction), Rival-chan (Incomplete interaction), Phantom Girl (A ghost), and Midori Gurin (Incomplete routine).

Routine
This is the daily routine of all NPC students as of the November 15, 2015 Build, except for those aforementioned NPCs who do not have a routine yet:


 * 1) Walk into the school.
 * 2) Stand by the lockers (In reality, they are changing from outdoor shoes to indoor shoes, but no animations are available yet ).
 * 3) Move to the plaza, the roof, the Computer Lab, or go participate in club activities.
 * 4) Go to their assigned class.
 * 5) Go to the cafeteria, the club rooms, or the rooftop. The students that go to the gossip area are supposed to eat, but there are no implemented eating animations yet.
 * 6) Go back to class.
 * 7) Stand by the locker once more (To switch from indoor shoes to outdoor shoes).
 * 8) Leave the school, go to club activities, or go to the Computer Lab.

Yandere-chan can interact with most of the students. In the future, the students will react when the protagonist bumps into them. If a student's face is sent to Info-chan, she will send the player their name, club (if they are in one), persona, possible crushes, strength, and any possible additional information. Info-chan will not give Yandere-chan information on Senpai, Rival-chan, delinquents, or herself. If YandereDev can manage it, there will most likely be at least ninety students in the full game. NPCs will be 99% Japanese with similar skin tones.

Main Characters

Rivals

 * Main Article: Rivals

'''Note: Not all rivals have made their appearances yet. Some only have concept art available for portraits. Others that have been added to the game are not complete (either in routine or appearance) and are subject to change before the final build.'''

Females
All females have the same eye shape as Yandere-chan because the female student models are reused.

Males
All males have the same eye shape as Senpai because the male student models are reused.

Easter Eggs

 * Main Article: Easter Eggs

There are currently five Easter Egg students in Yandere Simulator.

Former Students

 * Main Article: 1980s Mode

Former students from the 1980's. They are all adults (except Phantom Girl) but they still play an important role in Yandere Simulator.

Removed Students

 * Main Article: Removed Content

The deleted students, Victim-chan and Witness-chan, can be seen in the JSON file of some old updates (from March 1st, 2015 to April 8th, 2015) as well as the "How To Get Away With Murder In Yandere Simulator" video.

It was impossible to meet both of them in the game because they were already removed when the update build was released.

Kuudere Simulator

 * Main Article: Kuudere Simulator

These playable students both appear in Kuudere Simulator. Kuudere-chan eventually became a student in Yandere Simulator, named Kuu Dere.

Hypothetical Students

 * There may be a Kickstarter reward allowing a fan to make a student to be implemented into the official game.
 * There will be at least one exchange student, but their nationality has not been decided yet. They'll most likely be American so the student can be a comically exaggerated American stereotype..
 * It may be possible for the player to add their own students in the future.
 * There will be one character in Yandere Simulator who YandereDev has always envisioned as someone who tortures animals. However, it is not Yandere-chan.
 * In addition, there will be one Mary Sue/absolutely perfect student. YandereDev has not revealed whether she is a rival or not.
 * If YandereDev could make a student based on himself, he would make a student that is in the Gaming Club, a Loner, and has no crush, unless he added a student who resembles his favorite video game character. Still, he has no desire to put himself in-game.
 * YandereDev will only make parodies of characters that he cares or knows about. DelinquientHair.png
 * Rival-chan's appearance might be in the full game.
 * There may be a student that looks like YandereDev, but is the complete opposite of him otherwise.
 * YandereDev would love to include a gothic lolita character or a ganguro character.

Trivia

 * Students with something noteworthy about them (such as rivals and Easter Egg students) might have ironic names.
 * In the future, students in a group may murmur or chatter together when you walk by them.
 * There actually is a reason why the students will still come to school when they know there is a serial killer on the loose, but YandereDev has not released this information yet. It may be because in Japanese culture, getting a good education and upholding your family reputation is very important.
 * In very early debug builds, all students were recolors of Yandere-chan's model, with the only difference being the hair and eye color (light blue). Before students had names, they were all named "Student-chan" within the game code. They were given different hair colors in the February 15th, 2015 Build. Five corpses of "Student-chan" can still be seen in the title screen.
 * YandereDev quickly makes students by modifying lines on a XML sheet and exporting the XML as a JSON file. Within the current game engine, however, he has to place all physical destinations of where a student has to go. In the future, the game will automatically assign students' destinations.
 * There will be some comic relief moments in the full version of Yandere Simulator, during particular NPC conversations.
 * Some boys in school are very big perverts, as they buy panty shots from Info-chan.
 * In the future, two "special" NPCs that are popular among fans may enter a relationship.
 * The player may be able to distract students with small firecrackers in the full game.
 * As of the September 20th, 2015 Build, students' clothes, hair, and animation codes are not active when Yandere-chan is far away. This is to improve frame rate.
 * Since Info-chan is a notorious name around the students, her default reputation will be -999. But her true identity will have a rep of "0", as nobody knows who she really is.
 * The names of the first six male and six female characters (not including Student-chan) are the most popular Japanese given names of 2012.
 * Pippi and Ryuto will be the only rhythm game references in Yandere Simulator.
 * Some students will stay after school at the end of the day to clean up classrooms, but there are no animations for this yet.
 * A fictional anime called Magical Girl Miyuki will be popular among students, and may talk about it occasionally. "Did you see last night's episode of Magical Girl Miyuki?"
 * YandereDev stated that he might even add a magical girl in the game for fun.
 * Students will have an age of "???". It may be this way due to the fact that 16-18 year old students seen naked may be called "child porn."
 * Yui Rio is currently the only student who has an Evil persona. In the full game, there will likely be no more than five students with this persona.
 * Budo Masuta is the only fully programmed NPC who doesn't appear to be scared at low School Atmosphere. However, if the Martial Arts Club closed down, he will become paranoid.
 * YandereDev has stated that a Japanese teacher told him nobody at school would be openly "LGBT" and only "come out" after graduating.
 * YandereDev "has some plans for students who act as amateur 'investigative journalists'".
 * In the future, the delinquents will only willingly interact with the player if Yandere-chan's reputation is low enough. YandereDev believes that the delinquents should arrive at class late when they are fully implemented. They will not help the player with murder nor take the blame for it.
 * In the future, it's possible that if Yandere-chan gets too popular, some students will stalk her and murders would thus always have witnesses.
 * According to YandereDev, Yandere-chan would only befriend students for manipulative purposes.
 * YandereDev would love to keep the original 12 students in the game, but he might have to ditch some NPCs if the production puts limits on him.
 * There are two characters who have abused an animal once during their life. It is unknown if these characters are students or not.
 * YandereDev would like to rename some characters.
 * YandereDev may have the female students in the game act more like "real Japanese schoolgirls" and perform lewd actions such as sneaking up on another girl and pulling up her skirt. He was most likely kidding when he mentioned this.
 * Student-chan's hair can be found in the StreamingAssets folder.
 * YandereDev hopes to implement the ability to put custom skin and uniforms on students in the future.

Bugs

 * Students frequently get stuck on each other or props.
