Yuka Takatoka

The real life yandere

Yuka was obsessed with a young man to the point where the thought of him being with another person, or perhaps not loving her as much as she loved him, was unbearable. She attacked him at her apartment, stabbing him in the stomach with a kitchen knife. He managed to get away and make it to the elevator but collapsed on the first floor.

Yuka followed him down and sat next to his bleeding body. She had planned to kill herself as well.

"I, too, wanted to die," Police reported her as saying. "I liked the man, I couldn't help it."

However, the gravity of the event seemed to bring a moment of shocking clarity. She posted on her twitter and called police to report what she had done. The victim, whose name has yet to be released, was transported to a hospital in critical condition. Yuka was then taken into custody.

 On a disturbing side note, Yuka's Instagram has been flooded with comments that mock the stabbing and talk about how attractive she is to some users. They call her the "Too beautiful murderer".

A Yandere is a type of female character that has a psychotic love for a male in the story. This love drives them to do horrible things to anybody that gets in the way of or are shown attention by the object of their affection. It often ends with the character attacking or killing the one they love in a twisted sense of showing just how much the person means to them. Yuka was one of these twisted monsters of love.
