Rivals

Rivals are key elements in Yandere Simulator. They are the most important students to eliminate, since they will have a crush on Senpai. If the rival is not eliminated, they will confess their love to Senpai at the end of the week, and Yandere-chan will be left heartbroken. There are no actual rivals in the debug build, so there's no way to win yet.

The first rival may be Osana Najimi, Her AI, however, is incomplete, this may be the reason why she is outlined red if you use the yandere vision mode, but this has not been proven yet. currently she cannot be interacted with yet. Because of this, the player cannot beat the game, and you will always lose on Friday at 6:00 PM due to Osana confessing her love to Senpai. She is Senpai's childhood friend and keeps denying she has a crush on him. Osana might not be the first rival anymore in the future though.

 '''Kokona Haruka is the current test rival. '''Although she might not be an actual rival in the final game, she's being used as a test subject. As it's shown, she has a crush on Senpai, and so, we must eliminate her - however, eliminating her won't do anything, since the player will still lose at the end of the week. When sent a picture of her face to Info-chan, it shows that she doesn't have a crush on Senpai, which might mean she's not going to be an actual rival.
