Heroic



Heroic is one of the many personas that appear in Yandere Simulator.

If a Heroic NPC witnesses Yandere-chan murdering a student or carrying a corpse, they will try to apprehend her after one second, which is much less time than other students take to act upon their persona. Heroes will chase after Yandere-chan like a teacher, and Yandere-chan cannot outrun them. Once a heroic student grabs hold of Yandere-chan by her wrists, a struggle mini-game will ensue. The player must press a series of buttons in rapid succession to avoid being apprehended and overpower the foe.

As of the February 15th, 2016 Build, the player will automatically lose a fight against a hero if they are carrying an un-concealable weapon.

NOTE: If the player is in the Martial Arts Club, they will automatically win any physical encounter, no matter the Self-Defense of the student.

The player can tell if they are winning or not by the bar at the bottom. A heartbreak icon is located on the left side, a heart icon is located on the right, and the keys/buttons that the player needs to press are in the middle. Pressing the correct buttons will move them to the right, and the incorrect ones will move them to the left. If the player lets the icon fully reach the left side, Yandere-chan will be pinned down by the student and it will result in a APPREHENDED Game Over. Yandere-chan will also yell "No!" as they are on the floor. If the icon fully reaches the right side, Yandere-chan will kill the student by stabbing them in the head. During the mini game, all surrounding students stand still in shock. As soon as a student is defeated, any other Heroic students who saw the player will run at them and trigger another mini game.

The stronger the heroic students self-defense, the harder it will be to fight back. The player can check how strong a student is in the Student Info. The stronger a student is, the harder the mini-game. The player can upgrade their Physical Education stat to make the mini-game easier.

 * Despite YandereDev using the label "Justice Minded" during his videos, it was actually a placeholder name. The real persona name is Hero. As of the November 15th, 2015 Build, the persona is displayed as Heroic.
 * If both a student with a Heroic persona and a teacher witness Yandere-chan murdering someone, the teacher will apprehend Yandere-chan while the student will just face her.
 * In the future, if a hero witnesses enough murder or corpses, they may become a Sleuth.
 * If the player upgrades the Physical Education stat, Yandere-chan will also be able to move faster. If the stat is upgraded to level 5, she will be able to match the running speed of the pursuer and can outrun them.
