Intros

'''The intros are the beginning cut-scenes of Yandere Simulator that shed some light on what caused Yandere-chan to have her current goal. ''' There were two intros that focused on the main characters of the main story from Yandere-chan's perspective. They are set before the game starts and the player controls Yandere-chan.

First Intro
Was possibly first shown around October 14th, 2015. YandereDev states in the description of the video for this intro that what is shown is "extremely old, and no longer reflects Yandere-chan's characterization, or how the intro of the game will play out." The fourth part of the series says that Info-chan's characterization is also not properly portrayed.

Summary
Yandere-chan is a teenage girl who is in her second year of high school. She wants a love life because her current situation was "disappointing", as she calls it. She imagines a perfect love interest for her and fantasizes it until she realizes she is late for school.

Transcript
[''The intro's establishing shot is from above Yandere-chan as she lies down in her bed over the covers a few hours before school starts. The girl is in her blue pajamas either thinking to herself or talking out loud while alone in her room.'']

Yandere-chan: Tomorrow, I will star my second year of high school. My first year of high school was disappointing. I was hoping I would meet someone special, but nobody asked me out. I guess the love of my life isn't going to just fall into my lap. I can't just sit around and wait for someone to ask me out. I have to be more proactive! I wonder...what would my dream lover look like? Well...for starters...they would have to be...

[''At this point the player of this intro is given a choice to choose between a male and female ideal lover. The background is white and covered in hearts. The player chooses to have their crush be male, scrolling through some of the options given to show the viewer the customization options. After doing so the player goes with the default look for their character.'']

Yandere-chan: Oh, Senpai... [''The camera shows the alarm clock next to Yandere-chan's bed. It is 6:29 AM.] You're perfect...I want to spend the rest of my life with you... [Alarm clock rings, but the girl quickly uses a single index finger to turn it off.''] No...not yet...I'm not done dreaming.

...Zzz...Senpai...

Yandere-chan: [The camera cross fades to the girl sitting up on her bed, stretching.] Ahh...I slept so well! That was the best dream I've ever had...I wonder what time it is... [She turns to her left and the camera shows that it is 8:15 AM, according to the clock.] CRAP! School starts in 15 minutes! [Yandere-chan walks over to her closet.] If I hurry, I can still make it! [She puts her right index finger towards her mouth, clearly thinking.] Now, what did my school's uniform look like again?!

[''The video has the options of six outfits pop up in a circle. One of them is being hidden from view behind the first outfit that can be selected, the White Seifuku. The player checks out all the outfits going counterclockwise and gives enough time for the viewer to see the descriptions for each uniform. Finally, the player chooses the first option.'']

Yandere-chan: [''The camera cross fades to showing the viewers Yandere-chan in her new outfit from bottom to top. She looks ahead, smiling.''] Found it! I hope it looks good on me... [She quickly nods to herself with her right hand at her chin and her left hand holding her right elbow.] Okay, no time to waste! Gotta get moving! [''The camera smash cuts to a piece of toast jumping out of a toaster with Yandere-chan catching the toast when it is in midair. The view smash cuts again to a door that the girl bursts out of while running. She has the toast in her mouth, her pupils are small, and a bag in her right hand.'']

I'm laaaaaaaaaate!

Yandere-chan: [''The video cross fades to the main character running through an empty street. The neighborhood is bright and looks fairly normal.''] I'm almost there! I can make it just in time for the entrance ceremony.

[''The intro is now shown through Yandere-chan's POV. The person that Yandere-chan fantasized about comes flying from a corner, noticing her with his pupils going small as they crash into each other. The shot is comical with the toast from the girl's mouth soaring in the air between them and both characters falling on their backs. There is a shot of the toast landing on the ground and the camera moves over to Yandere-chan who has her bag right next to her as she sits on the ground on her knees. Her head is down.'']

Yandere-chan: Owch, owch, owch...that hurt...

Senpai: [He stretches out his hand toward the fallen girl.] I'm so sorry! I wasn't watching where I was going! Do you need a hand?

Yandere-chan: [Looks up into his face.] Huh? [''The video shows from her POV again. Senpai is standing in front of her, holding out his hand, but the background is again white with hearts everywhere. The focus then turns on Yandere-chan who also is surrounded by hearts. The perspective slowly zooms into her face.'']

(No way...this is the person I saw in my dreams last night! This can't be a coincidence. This must be fate! This is my destiny!)

Senpai: [It's back at the girl's POV, but this time the background is just the neighborhood and Senpai is frowning, still holding out his hand.] Um...are you okay? You didn't hit your head or anything, did you?

Yandere-chan: Oh! Don't worry, I'm fine! [''There is a shot of Yandere-chan taking Senpai's hand. It shows her face, with the same background of hearts.'']

(I've never felt this way before! Now I'm certain! This is my one true love!)

Senpai: [''The girl stands up from the floor and the two are facing each other. Senpai is slightly taller than her.''] I'm glad you're okay. I was worried.

Yandere-chan: [She plays with her hands and looks down shyly for a moment.] Oh, you're so considerate!

Senpai: [He scratches the back of his head with his right hand and looks off into the distance, to his right.] I'd better go now. If I'm late, I'll be in big trouble!

Yandere-chan: [Acts shyly then is surprised and puts her right hand's index finger on her face, thinking again.] Oh! That's right! I forgot about school! [Stops thinking.]

Senpai: [Gives Yandere-chan a friendly wave.] See you! [Runs off.]

Yandere-chan: [Waves back.] ...y...yeah...see you... [The camera zooms in on Yandere-chan's smiling face from the left, with the hearts background.]

(I finally met the person I'll be with for the rest of my life! It's time for the romance I've been waiting for! My exciting high school love life starts now!)

Osana: What took you so long?

Yandere-chan: [The heart background quickly goes, Yandere-chan's pupils get a bit smaller, and she loses her smile.] Huh?! [The camera pushes in to Osana Najimi, looking like Rival-chan at the time, talking to Senpai up ahead.] Who the hell is SHE?!

Osana: [''She makes some sort of frustrated motion while shaking her head. Senpai is frowning. Osana is shorter than Senpai.''] Geez, you always keep me waiting! You've been like this since we were little kids!

Senpai: [Senpai scratches the back of his head again.] I'm sorry...

Yandere-chan: [The video zooms in on Yandere-chan still observing the scene.] No way...a childhood friend?!

Osana: [The focus is back on Osana and Senpai's conversation.] Don't get the wrong idea! [She shakes her head.] It's not like I WANT to walk to school with you! I only walk with you because you'd probably get lost without my help! You're hopeless!

Senpai: [Senpai scratches the back of his head again.] I'm sorry...

Yandere-chan: [The view is of her face again, being zoomed in on.] A tsundere?! It's even worse than I thought!

Osana: [''View of the conversation again. Osana nods and does some girly expression with her hands.''] Come on...let's get to school. And try to keep up!

Senpai: I'm sorry...

Yandere-chan: [The intro shows her falling to her knees in defeat, having her head down once more.] No...my exciting high school love life can't be over this quickly... [Yandere-chan looks up, the situation filling her with determination.] I have to get rid of that girl somehow! [She gets up and relaxes her expression.] There's no time to worry about it now...I have to get to school right away!

[''The camera pulls back from Yandere-chan running toward the school, with Osana and Senpai already gone. Info-chan is shown to be looking at the scene from behind a pole.'']

Info-chan: So, history is repeating itself, huh? Time to test a theory...

Yandere-chan: [The scene cross fades to another that is zooming in on Yandere-chan in her school, looking out a window.] I could hardly concentrate during the entrance ceremony, or listen when the new teachers were introducing themselves. All I could about...was the person from my dreams. I noticed them walking up the stairs to the classrooms on the third floor. That means they are one year ahead of me. That makes them my Senpai. I wonder if they would be willing to date an underclassman like me? I wonder if that blonde bimbo is going to make her move soon...I have to act now, before it's too late! [''Yandere-chan's phone rings and she is surprised. The camera stops zooming. She checks to see who it is on her pink phone.''] Huh? A text message?

"Meet me in classroom 3-3. I have something important to talk to you about."

Yandere-chan: What an ominous message! I don't recognize this number. Who could this be? Oh...what if it's my Senpai?! What if they fell in love with me and already want to confess?! I've got to hurry to Class 3-3!

[The scene crossfades to Yandere-chan, walking near the front of a dark classroom alone.]

Yandere-chan: [She folds her arms together and looks to her left.] It's so dark in here...hello? Is anyone here?

Info-chan: I'm glad you came. [''Yandere-chan is surprised and stares in the direction of the camera. It turns to its left to show Info-chan, directly opposite of Yandere-chan. It cuts to a shot of Info-chan's shoes, going up quickly to show her smirking. Her glasses flash dangerously.'']

Yandere-chan: [The scene focuses on Yandere-chan again, still a bit in shock.] I don't recognize you...how did you get my phone number?

Info-chan: [''The camera moves left again. Info-chan is walking toward the protagonist.''] Collecting information about the students enrolled at this school is my hobby. It's earned me the nickname "Info-chan." [Info-chan stops walking.] My specialty is uncovering a person's darkest secrets, so learning your phone number was a trivial task.

Yandere-chan: [The view turns right towards Yandere-chan, who has her composure back with a skeptical look on her face.] Darkest secrets, huh? Let's see you prove it. Tell me a secret about someone in this school.

Info-chan: [The focus is on her face with her glasses shining.] Today, while running to school with toast in her mouth, Yandere-chan bumped into an upperclassman. She fell in love on the spot.

Yandere-chan: [The intro shows Yandere-chan, shocked again.] How...how could you possibly know that?!

Info-chan: [Focus on Info-chan.] Like I said, learning secrets is my specialty. I plan to become a journalist one day, and I'm preparing myself for investigative journalism by honing my skills at this school.

Yandere-chan: [Focus on Yandere-chan.] That's nice, but I'm really creeped out right now...what do you want from me?

Info-chan: [Focus on Info-chan.] I'd like to share some information that might interest you. The girl you saw speaking to your beloved Senpai is named Osana Najimi. As you may have begun to suspect, she's had a huge crush on your Senpai for a long time. She plans to confess her love one week from now - next Friday. Your Senpai is the type of person who could never turn down a love confession. If she confesses to him, he is guranteed to accept her feelings.

Yandere-chan: [Focus on Yandere-chan.] Are you serious?! This is bad...but why are you telling me any of this?

Info-chan: [Focus on Info-chan.] I'm the President of the Newspaper Club; I produce and distribute the school newspaper. It's how I prepare for my career as a journalist. Sadly, almost nobody bothered to read my newspaper last year, even though I poured my heart and soul into every article I wrote...

Yandere-chan: [Focus on Yandere-chan, with a somewhat annoyed look on her face.] I'm very sorry to hear that, but you still haven't answered my question...

Info-chan: [Focus on Info-chan.] If there was a bit more drama going on at this school, I'd be able to write more interesting articles. If something tragic happens to Osana Najimi between now and Friday...she won't be able to steal your Senpai from you, and I'll be able to publish a juicy article about the terrible misfortune that befell her.

Yandere-chan: [Focus on Yandere-chan.] What are you suggesting? Are you saying I shout hurt Najimi-san?

Info-chan: [Focus on Info-chan.] No, of course not. I'm not saying you should hurt her. [The camera quickly zooms in on Info-chan's face, with the glasses flashing.]

I'm saying you should KILL her.

Yandere-chan: [The camera shows her surprised face.] KILL HER?

Info-chan: [Focus on Info-chan.] Of course! If a death occured right here at school, students would naturally want to know everything about it, and my newspaper would provide them with every last juicy detail about Osana-chan's demise...except for the identity of the killer, of course. I would never tell a soul about your involvement. It would be even better if you killed a few other students, as well. Just imagine how the students would panic if they thought a serial killer was on the loose here at school! The more fear you can stir up, the more people will turn to my newspaper for answers, and the more successful I will become! Of course, if you killed EVERY student at school, then nobody would be alive to read the school newspaper...so don't go TOO wild! Ha ha ha ha ha!

Yandere-chan: [Focus on Yandere-chan's face in disbelief.] You...you're insane.

Info-chan: [Focus on Info-chan.] And you fell in love with someone after colliding with them in the middle of the street. That's not normal, either.

Yandere-chan: [Focus on Yandere-chan's determined face, with hearts in the background.] You don't understand! I saw my Senpai in my dreams! That means our meeting was fate! We belong together! It's our destiny!

Info-chan: [Focus on Info-chan, background is normal.] Oh, I don't doubt that for a second. You'd be willing to do absolutely anything to be with your destined loved one, wouldn't you?

Yandere-chan: [Focus on Yandere-chan.] Yes! Anything!

Info-chan: [Focus on Info-chan's face, especially the glasses.] Then you'd have no problem killing Osana-chan, right?

Yandere-chan: [Focus on Yandere-chan, looking uncertain.] ...but...that's...

Info-chan: [Focus on Info-chan.] Don't worry; I'll support you every step of the way. If you take a picture of a student's face and send it to me, I'll tell you everything I know about that student. I can do a lot of other favors for you, as well...but I would have to ask for payment, and I only deal in a very specific currency.

Yandere-chan: [Looking annoyed again.] ...and what would that currency be?

Info-chan: Panty shots. [Focus on Info-chan's face and glasses with a yellow background filled with panties.]

Yandere-chan: [Surprised look.] What?!

Info-chan: [Focus on her.] quite a few of the boys at this school - and even some of the girls - will pay me a lot of money for panty shots of female students. If you send me photographs of girls' panties, there are a lot of favors that I might be able to do for you.

Yandere-chan: [Background gone with her looking uncertain.] I don't want to take pictures of my classmates' panties...and I don't know if I could kill anyone...

Info-chan: [Focus on face.] I'm sure you could. It's in your blood, after all.

Yandere-chan: [Her face seems indignant.] ...what's that supposed to mean?

Info-chan: [Focus on her.] Nevermind that. Just consider my proposal. You don't have to give me your answer right away; you have the entire weekend to think about it. But, starting on Monday, you will have five days to get rid of Osana-chan before she confesses her love to your Senpai.

Yandere-chan: [Surprised.] Five days...

Info-chan: [Waves at Yandere-chan.] I'll be going now. I've got articles to write. I'll see you later.

Yandere-chan: [''The scene shows from in front of Yandere-chan. She has her right index finger to her face, deep in thought. She thinks of one thing.''] ...Senpai... [The screen fades to black.]

Analysis
Yandere-chan seems very average in this opening and just wants a fulfilling love life. She seems bored with her life and wants something new. Yandere-chan is a bit love-crazy, especially considering that she must be around 17 years old by now. She says that she wants to "spend the rest of [her] life" with this imaginary character. She is also convinced that it is fate that binds her and Senpai together and can kill for him, so she's obsessive as ever.
