Strict

AttackKahoKanon — Ayano attacking Kyoshi.

Strict is one of the personas that appear in Yandere Simulator.

Gameplay[]

The only NPCs that have this persona are members of the Akademi staff, such as the teachers, the guidance counselor, the headmaster, and the nurse.

If an NPC with the Strict persona sees the protagonist breaking school rules, she will be sent straight to the counselor's office. NPCs with the Strict persona have extensive self-defense training, currently making them impossible to kill without having at least one level of strength, or without the use of Easter Eggs.

If the protagonist aims her camera at a Strict NPC, they will stare at the player and give them a suspicious look. Teachers have nothing to hide, so they will see the player as suspicious. If the player joins the Photography Club, they will simply stand still instead, assuming that they are getting their picture taken for the yearbook.

The guidance counselor, named Genka Kunahito, has a different version of the Strict persona called the Slightly Strict persona. If the protagonist gives a valid excuse to justify her behaviour, she will forgive her, but also tell her not to do it again. If the protagonist makes her patience run out by making a bad excuse or using the same excuse twice, she will punish her. However, since she stays in her office the entire time, it is unknown what her reaction to murder is. The same thing goes for Mae Kunahito with Ryoba, but not having the same persona as Genka's for some reason.

Kyoshi Tachikawa and Tsuru Kariya have the "Friendly but Strict" persona. She reacts to murder and corpses in the same way as the other teachers, but when taking a photo of her, she poses for the protagonist instead of being suspicious.

If a teacher sees the protagonist murder an NPC within their line of sight, they will immediately run to pin her down and disarm her. However, if she has at least one level of strength, or is in the Martial Arts Club, there will be a struggle mini-game, similar to the Heroic persona. If the protagonist wins, she will stab the teacher in the chest. If the protagonist fails, the teacher will take her weapon and pin her down.
