Yandere (ヤンデレ)
...a person who is initially very loving and gentle to someone before their devotion becomes destructive in nature, often through violence. The term is derived from the words yan (ヤン) meaning a mental or emotional illness and dere (デレ) meaning to show affection. Yandere characters are mentally unstable, often using extreme violence as an outlet for their emotions.
Character examples include Ryuuguu Rena from the Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni (When they Cry) series, Akira Kogami from Lucky Star, and Sekai Saionji from School Days (you'll understand why at the end...). A variant of the term, Yangire (ヤンギレ), originated in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS and is used to describe a character who is mentally ill and snaps instantly without showing affection for the victim of their outburst.
