Dorodere is an internet slang term used to describe a character or person who initially comes across as rude or aggressive but later reveals their soft and caring side. They may seem mean or standoffish at first, but deep down, they have a kind and affectionate nature.

Examples:
Example 1:

Person A: Did you see how blunt and straightforward John was during the meeting? He seemed so mean.
Person B: Oh, don’t be fooled by that. John is a total dorodere. Once you get to know him, you’ll see how caring and empathetic he actually is.

Example 2:

Online user 1: Why is this character always so aggressive and harsh with everyone? I can’t stand them!
Online user 2: That’s because you haven’t seen their other side. They are a classic dorodere, and as the story progresses, you’ll witness their kind and loving nature coming to light.
