I never thought that tsunderes can only get mad at relatively petty things. There's also the question about whether you consider a tsundere's low tolerance for stupidity a justification for their anger. Sure, it may seem like a weak excuse, but it can be understandable from the point of view of someone who has/had to deal with stupid people. Which I'm sure most of us have experienced at one point or another.

The way I see it, anger born from worry can be a nice blend of both the tsun tsun and the dere dere aspects.

Anybody can add valid tags to anything, unless they are demoted to levels below the standard. In fact, with the default user privileges, you can even add entirely new tags (as in, tags that don't exist in the system yet). You can also request the removal of any tags that seem wrong to you.

Tags are, like pretty much everything else, subject to oversight; tag maintainers and mods hold the authority of overriding user view, and as such we can delete tags from entities, remove tags altogether, block tags from being used (for example, you cannot tag a creator "tsundere", no matter how much you may want to, because the tag is blocked for that system), (un)blacklist tags (banning them from being (re)created), and so forth. If you believe a tag shouldn't be assigned to a specific entity, we'll also be the ones who review your request for removal.


Does he? I'm interested; what makes you think that? (Actual question, I'm truthfully curious and not just trolling.)

I agree with the sentiment that Ed could be considered a tsundere as well, in certain respects.

Also, what Hinoe said. Feel free to go add tags to any characters that seem to be missing tags. Just click on the "add tag" button on that character's page. AniDB is setup similar to a wiki, in that anyone can contribute data. Some data needs to go through the moderation approval process, the CREQ (change request) system. Most new data can be added without creq.

Did you know? WE HAVE AN ANIME CALENDAR: http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=calendar
It's much better than those giant Haruhi anime season airing charts.
This will be my new "signature" for a while, to advertise this apparently not-well-known feature.

Everytime someone mentions Winry to Edward (in a romantic sense), he always gets angry, but also embarrassed. Example:
Happens rather often in the series; Constantly denying any sort of romantic feelings towards her. Maybe not really your typical tsundere, but he does have some of the typical qualites of a tsundere. This post was edited by Mortsyn (384413) on 05.02.2016 13:57.

Well, fair point.

Hello there. I'm gonna go start adding the tsundere tag to character articles that don't have that tag yet are considered tsunderes by other sources. If you mods/admins think the tag does or doesn't fit, then you'll just use your mod/admin powers to reject or accept the new tag. I just wanted to let you guys know in advance.

As for the criteria I'm using to determine which articles get the tsundere tag, here's what it is. I have a couple word documents that list tsunderes according to the website known as TV Tropes. Granted, TV Tropes isn't an authoritative source on this subject, which is why I'm telling you about it before I go through with it. Keep in mind that I haven't seen every single show that are on those lists I have, so determining the accuracy of said tag placements would be up to the mods/admins/fans of the show to debate whether they agree with the tag placement or not.

However, if what I'm proposing to do breaks any rules, please let me know and I'll just forget about adding the tsundere tag to a bunch of articles based on what TV Tropes said about those characters. I don't want to overstep any boundaries since I'm still a somewhat relatively new and semi-active user of this website. Thank you and have a good day.

I'm not a mod so don't take my word for it but I think you should only tag something as such if you personally think it applies. Which means you could look at that list you have and only tag characters you personally think are tsunderes. Having seen the show is perhaps not mandatory as TV Tropes does often give reasoning for why this or that is the case but I personally would only tag characters that I have first hand knowledge of.

It should be fine even if you're wrong, though in case if you do massive abuse (hundreds of tags in a short span with multiple/many wrong), chances are all of them will be revoked and your rights to tag characters (and perhaps add anything to DB) revoked. So exercise reason when you do it.

I reckon you could post that document on Google Docs and then people from this club could go and tag characters from that list that they think really are tsunderes and then cross out that charter from the list. You can do that via an anonymous link that has edit rights, or perhaps better yet, just view and comment rights with people adding a comment that they have added the tag or that they don't think the character is a tsundere (though I'm sure that won't happen, TV Tropes seems to have generally higher quality than Wikipedia albeit obviously it's still not perfect).

Adding tags doesn't generally need creq approval if the tag was not previously deleted. If you went and added a load of tags, we would have to go through reports to search them out by your user ID.

Echoing what niks said, indiscriminately adding based on TV Tropes is probably not the greatest idea; adding those examples that you know are tsunderes from the TV Tropes list sounds a bit more sane. Posting the list somewhere would help, but if it's a giant list then I doubt many people will read it with a fine-toothed comb.

Thanks for the input. And yeah, doing the google docs method might be a better idea. I'll just need to figure out how to translate those microsoft word documents into google docs form first.

You can just upload them to Google Docs, I think it supports all common document formats used by MS Office and LibreOffice.

B-B-Baka!

That is all.
