[Menhera & Yandere Songs] Carefully Selected Love Songs So Devoted It Hurts! (31–40)
Cute Girlfriendsyudou
The song that proclaims a love so strong it won’t lose to anyone is “Cute na Kanojo” by singer-songwriter and Vocaloid producer syudou, released in 2021.
The lyrics suggest that the lover’s gaze isn’t directed solely at the singer, yet they demand to be properly loved, insisting that no matter who the rival is, their own love is the strongest—an intensity that borders on madness.
There’s a coolness to the bold confidence of always coming out on top no matter the situation, but the weight of certain expressions makes this a slightly frightening track.
utter scumNakiso feat. Kaai Yuki
The song “Dokuzu” is one I especially want people to hear if they feel anxious or troubled about their relationships with a partner or someone they like.
It was created in 2022 by Nakiso, a Vocaloid producer known for delivering highly thematic tracks.
It portrays someone who, out of overwhelming love, ends up relentlessly pressing their beloved with questions.
From Yuka Aisu’s vocal delivery, which repeats the same phrases, you can sense the aching emotions.
Set to a sound that carries a somewhat thrilling atmosphere, the song candidly expresses feelings that won’t settle.
It can be a source of comfort when you’re struggling with a romantic relationship or going through something painful.
lipstickKato Miria
Many women may already know this, right? This song is about the story ten years after “Dear Lonely Girl,” the track that made Miliyah Kato—then a current high school student—known as a charismatic icon among high school girls.
“Lipstick” sings about the struggles of our generation: playing the role of someone everyone envies, only to lose sight of your true self.
The cry to be loved for who you really are pierces the heart.
I♡Riripi
“I♡” is a song about being so overwhelmed with love for someone that you’re practically high on it.
Created by singer Lilipi, who is active mainly on YouTube, the track was released in 2022.
The song gives you the sense of being told “I love you” over and over while both body and mind are in an abnormal state—truly yandere! Its melody, with a slightly horror-like, Halloween-song vibe, seems to directly reflect the protagonist’s heart as they begin to go mad from love.
Listen enough times, and you might just fall under this song’s love spell yourself.
sisterJanne Da Arc
The song “sister,” written and composed by yasu, the band’s leader and vocalist.
When the person you love won’t love only you, when things don’t go your way… the sudden impulse to “lock this person away” surfaces.
The lyrics are from a woman’s perspective, and I feel they portray that love—so pure it borders on madness—both realistically and beautifully.
On one hand, it evokes a strong woman who would say, “If you can’t love me, I’ll make you able to,” while on the other, the fact that she leaves the man’s hands free suggests a modest desire to still be loved by him, which is somehow heartbreaking.

Loveit?biz×ZERA feat LOLUET
“Loveit?” is a song that vividly portrays an overwhelming surge of heavy romantic feelings born from thinking too much about a loved one.
Written and composed by biz and ZERA—both known for producing Vocaloid tracks and providing songs to artists—it features vocals by LOLUET.
Over a beat infused with suspenseful, atmospheric sound effects, the vocals unfold with expressive freedom.
Even in her conversational delivery, the singer conveys a dark worldview.
The track depicts both the aching emotion of love turning into hatred and scenes of sensual allure.
I like you, I like you—I love you.Togawa Jun
Jun Togawa’s “Suki Suki Daisuki” has made an unusual comeback, going viral on TikTok—especially overseas—so people are hearing it again.
The song is the title track from her third album of the same name, released in 1985.
In the chorus, she seems to cutely express her overwhelming love… or so it appears, but the song actually instills a sense of fear.
The lyrics feel terrifying despite the poppy tune.
You could call it pure love, but when you take it to the extreme, it becomes this—a yandere-esque song.
