Love trap be junkieDYES IWASAKI
An electro swing track where a precarious romance game unfolds! It’s a piece by DYES IWASAKI, released in March 2024.
This upbeat tune features a strikingly danceable rhythm, and the lyrics depict a confident woman toying with a man.
You’ll be startled by expressions likening love to a drug and lines where she calls the man “kitty.” Recommended for those who enjoy the give-and-take of romance or who yearn for a slightly dangerous love.
majestic and dignifiedUmetora
A song that revels in being hurt by the other person.
They’re subjected to one cruel act after another, yet perceive it all as affection—and what’s more, they’re dissatisfied that the other person isn’t giving it their all.
It’s up-tempo, but with a suspicious, low-register melody.
Provocative words tumble out in rapid succession.
Che-che, check, one-two!Kurage-P
A song about a 17-year-old girl who falls in love with her school teacher for the first time.
She becomes so obsessed that she records his voice and edits it into audio whispering words of love to her.
In the end, to get back at the teacher who won’t return her feelings, she plays the audio over the school PA system.
Set to an upbeat sound, it sings of a destructive yet youthful love.
Day by Daysyudou
When you hear “yandere song,” this series might be the first that comes to mind! It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer syudou, also known for working on an ending theme for the anime Chainsaw Man, released in 2022.
You’ll be drawn in by its ominous-sounding production and the relentless, high-pitched melody line.
It’ll send shivers down your spine.
Be sure to check out the related entries in the series, “Cute na Kanojo” and “Kareshi no Jude,” too!
Karakuri Pierrot40mP
A song about a girl who keeps waiting for her lover even two hours past their meeting time.
Unable to accept that she’s been dumped, she sings that as long as she can stay with them, she doesn’t mind being like a puppet or a clown who’s just manipulated.
It’s famous as a heartbreak song, but I can’t help sensing a suspicious, obsessive vibe in the way the girl still clings to the other person.
Two-Faced Loverswowaka
A song about having your brain eaten away by love until you can’t tell your public face from your hidden one.
In the end, you choose the hidden face that isn’t your true self and launch into a provocative romance.
But because the song ends with a cry that there’s no love no matter which face you choose, it conveys a perverse feeling of giving up on fulfilling love while still remaining obsessively attached to the lover.
Love me, love me, love meKikuo
This song portrays an overpowering love so intense it borders on madness, a plea to be loved relentlessly.
The eerie sound design amplifies the unsettling atmosphere of the track, with extremely hard-panned elements that heighten anxiety.
Alongside the deep, overwhelming affection, it also expresses a desire to eliminate anything that gets in the way—at times depicted in a violent manner, which leaves a strong impression.
While the intensity of the love comes through, the overall mood and nuanced lyrics evoke images of an unstable mind and feelings of fear.
