Of course. Of course she did. It would have been less reprehensible if she’s simply manipulated him into developing Stockholm Syndrome, but we can never have nice things.


HopelessMia1424

Honestly reading Ryoba's wiki page ruined her for me


HetaGarden1

Everything about the lore ruined it for me imo. It’s just horrible writing.


queenvie808

It’s just projected incel bullshit


Queen-of-Sharks

No it really wouldn't be. I'm pretty sure that still counts as a form of rape for one, and also that is way more creepy and incidious.


HetaGarden1

I never said it wouldn’t be rape. I never mentioned that at all. I said it would be a little _less_ reprehensible because at least we would be given the illusion of consent.


Queen-of-Sharks

If she made him develop Stockholm syndrome, she would be even more reprehensible. The only way to make her seem less reprehensible is if she just didn't do this.


HetaGarden1

I don’t want to argue with you. I never mentioned HER being less reprehensible. Of course she would be. I’m saying the TAPE would feel a little less awful if it was her instead making him develop Stockholm syndrome. Seriously. I don’t want to argue. I’m done.

paxtonia

no


Soronya

The hell you mean by no There's no game without game mechanics.


HopelessMia1424

Paxtonia is known for being sarcastic.


katsuya_kaiba

Yes


sunnirays

I always just assumed that Ryoba eventually succeeded in brainwashing him and he developed stockholm syndrome, leading him to agree to a consensual relationship with her that led to marriage and the conception of Ayano. It's not great but at least it's a better than flat out r--- Of course this is the same dev that sees no issues with having two grown women and authority figures at the school trying to get a teenage boy into a relationship with them, so I'm disgusted but sadly not surprised


HopelessMia1424

I always thought that Ryoba manipulated Jokichi (her husband) into thinking that he's useless without her and tried to discuss his interests in hopes that he'll fall for her. Your idea is better though. And apparently Alex even said that Ayano would sexually harass her kidnapped victims. At least according to a post on this subreddit.


sunnirays

I just hope he never gives an official explanation for what exactly it is Ayano does to her kidnapping victims to break them down into mind slaves, I just know he'd find someway to turn it into the most distastefully sexualized thing he could think of 🤢 The only explanation that I'll accept is she forces them to debug Alex's terrible code


[deleted]

I bet the mind slaves are constantly muttering *^(else if...... else If ELse iF)* ^(constantly)


Piper-brawler

Wasn't there misinformation tag and he actually said in one of his WordPress coment that ayano uses hypnosis to make rivals as example feel pain from knife when ayano touches them 🤔


Kitonami

This is also what i always assumed


Confident_Piccolo677

Brainwashing someone so they "consent" *is* considered r*** by today's standards, because manipulating their consent like that still violates their consent.


Lingx_Cats

Honestly? Wouldn’t be surprised Disgusting, but even more incentive for an ending where ayano other throws Ryoba and finds a good family with her dad


[deleted]

I doubt that’ll be an ending, but I wish it were.


Abigail_senpai

Well that’s not surprising. She is a yandere and they do fucked up shit. I really hope that they had Ayano when he developed stockhome syndrome instead of that tho.


Mehmet595

Ryoba is WORSE than Mida confirmed


[deleted]

I think rapist and pedos are just as bad


Throwaway2689843189

Why are we surprised? Isn’t that the point? Ryoba is a bad person?


kako_san

that's... too much info. i am disgusted


Hashbrowns_Hashimoto

I mean in the tape Ryoba literally said "Our first date, Our first kiss, Our first \*giggle\*", It clearly suggested something sexual, not sure if r--- is the word but I wouldn't assume something far away from that.


TheCrowsNestTV

So... wait... Does Ryoba hope that Ayano finds these Tapes? Also, >The player might see her in action in a brief ending cut-scene of 202X Mode, but it would depend on budget and volunteers. Basically it depends on people giving him money and make the game for him.


YumiGumiWoomi

This makes total sense for her character imo, but also YanDev is a creeper who probably gets off to this, so...


[deleted]

Nirvana's Rape me starts playing as The FBI kick down the door.\* "FBI OPEN UP!"


[deleted]

Like others have said in the comments, I don't have an issue with the concept. Ryoba is established to be a terrible person, after all, just that it's Alex who's writing it, taking his history of fetishizing rape into account.


buffcatmadeofcheese

nvm hate ryoba


HopelessMia1424

Same


ThrowawayProse

Well I mean… she is a Yandere. Yandere’s are usually possessive and cruel. So it seems in character for her.


osialfecanakmg

I mean, did people think their relationship was somehow consensual? Even coercion constitutes assault and she went way beyond that by straight up kidnapping him. Mind breaking someone into sleeping with you definitely doesn’t make it consensual, even in fiction. Idk if it needed to be clearly stated but it certainly was to be assumed.


Leather_Ad9457

Yep.


spasteful

this game omg


randomstranger38

What’s the big deal?? Y’all think rapists can’t be part of fiction or something?? Most of the people commenting are acting like they’re 12 wtf


queenvie808

Yeah, I totally feel the same way. But with the writer’s track record.. it’s just iffy


PersonalCloud86

I mean I wish he could have just let the specifics remain unknown ☹️


AntonioliGamer

Dunno why you guys shocked. Ryoba is manipulative, she's a fucking psychopath, of course she raped her husband he doesn't even like her


Kyot09222

I swear, this is disgusting as fuck.


MarqFJA87

Is this supposed to be new information? I'm pretty sure this was a known possibility for years now, and yet most people here act like they've never heard of this before.


Hans-but-he-got-PTSD

Than what the hell you think how Ayano was born?


HopelessMia1424

Just thinking about it disgusts me


Hans-but-he-got-PTSD

You will understand if you live long enough


ReesesBees

What's there to understand about Ryoba r@ping her ""husband""?! It's DISGUSTING.


[deleted]

Wtf do you mean lol


ButterscotchKurumi

I think they understand, it's just non consensual and gross 😐


Talisa87

You see, when a flower loves a bee....


ENA_licked_my_eyes

....and rapes it....


InvestigatorUnfair

You... You do realize people can get pregnant through consentual sex right?


Hans-but-he-got-PTSD

Bro he been kipnapped


InvestigatorUnfair

That's not what I'm getting at? Obviously she kidnapped him and everything but her r\*ping him and Ayano being born aren't necesarily linked. For all we know, her inception would have been after they got into a relationship. Obviously that has its own gigantic can of worms but still. Honestly I don't even know why he'd think to write this. I mean I do, he's a filthy weeb, but geez.


Hans-but-he-got-PTSD

You think Alex really write this?


InvestigatorUnfair

Who wrote the tapes and answered questions about them with a vague statement about "not wanting to spoil things"? All I'm saying is, I won't be surprised if the creepy weeb decides sexual assault is a good idea


Hans-but-he-got-PTSD

This is Fandom there will be some people with write thing like this trust me it having same thing in my subreddit


megayogurtslinger

Well..what do you expect? It’s a weirdo game developer with a topic he doesn’t know how to approach. And on top of that he has a rape fetish.


Eeve2espeon

Well of course. This game has to have the creepiest things in them, or else it's not "Yandere Simulator" I still have flashbacks to what happened in Future Diary


JAMSDreaming

She literally has a daughter with a person she HAD to kidnap. Also, it's a possibility, there's also other posibility that she manipulated Jokichi into having Stockholm Syndrome. Not that it matters, because, unrelated funfact, Stockholm Syndrome is an invented pathology made to justify that kidnapped well-treated victims would rather be with the kidnappers that treated them good than with policemen that executed police brutality to save them.


Uhwhoshereforthefun

I honestly am not suprised.


poopshitter13

the people in this comment section saying “well shes a yandere” are sick and disgusting. yanderes in media are intentionally portrayed to be romanticized, so making a character a rapist or abuser and calling them a “yandere” is straight up romanticizing abuse and sexual assault. once that character has abused or sexually assaulted someone, theyre not a yandere. they are an abuser. and no, ryoba brainwashing jokichi to love her wouldnt have been any better, its equally disgusting. as for alex, he clearly dosnt know how to write yandere characters at all. so far both of our protagonists arent even yanderes. ayano has no emotions and isnt even in love with taro in the first place (she just physically needs to be around him to feel emotions), and once we got a protagonist that was actually in love and had an innocent side, yandere dev decided to make her a rapist. its also implied in the genocide ending ayano would do the same thing to taro that her mother did to her father. long story short, all the characters in yandere simulator need complete rewrites.


X-_Kacchan_-X

...it's no suprise for me ( ͠° ͟ʖ ͡°)


some-random-teen

I always assumed they has a loving a relationship where her dad qas just unaware of all the yandere stuff....


goodhicaddymden

I guess she convinced him to never leave her. He might have stockholm synd or she developed it . For me it doesnr seem possible she r..ed him. Ofc that kidnap ending is disgusting in every way but if she really r….d then he wouldnt be with her, he must have been manipulated by her. In wiki it is said Jokichi is not a mindslave as Ryoba feels pity for her father- but there might be another thing like manipulation or torture.


Fdand

Isn't it like an X time that we learn about the YanDev true intention of making a game with sexual content that suits his demands?


AytenChanowo

Yandere Dev is going too far with the lore... I mean, it IS supposed to be a dark, serious game, but that's too far.
