They are cute and innocent, sweet and extremely huggable. Incidentally they are also varying shades of violent, unstable, and downright insane. Cute and Psycho is a trope that describes characters who are genuinely cute in both appearance and mannerisms but have a completely batshit crazy side. Sometimes there are distinctly different sides which may be shown equally, but other times they are mostly one or the other, the Killer Rabbit displaying moments of sweetness and relative-sanity or The Cutie showing hints of a dark psychotic nature. Often there is some kind of Dark and Troubled Past, or Split Personality to justify how the two aspects of the person can both be genuine, but other times no explanation is revealed.

  • They are cute and innocent, sweet and extremely huggable. Incidentally they are also varying shades of violent, unstable, and downright insane. Cute and Psycho is a trope that describes characters who are genuinely cute in both appearance and mannerisms but have a completely batshit crazy side. Sometimes there are distinctly different sides which may be shown equally, but other times they are mostly one or the other, the Killer Rabbit displaying moments of sweetness and relative-sanity or The Cutie showing hints of a dark psychotic nature. Often there is some kind of Dark and Troubled Past, or Split Personality to justify how the two aspects of the person can both be genuine, but other times no explanation is revealed. The primary difference between this trope and the Yandere, is that the Cute and Psycho character is not driven by an obsessive need to possess a friend or lover. They don't necessarily have to be provoked, but can switch for reasons observers would be hard-pressed to determine. Their motivation, if they have one, can vary immensely. Cute and Psycho is a Sister Trope to both Killer Rabbit and Yandere and closely related to Psychopathic Manchild and Beware the Nice Ones. If the "cute" part isn't real, then the character is The Fake Cutie instead. Characters of this type tend to be female, though male examples do exist. In some anime fandoms this character is referred to as a Yangire. This term is also used to refer to Axe Crazy versions of The Fake Cutie. Examples of Cute and Psycho/Sandbox include:
