Tsundere 

Japanese slang for one who is not nice and gets pissed off easily on the outside, but deep in the inside, is nice, caring, and gentle at all costs to the main character. It is usually used in anime/manga. The tsundere character usually shows his/her tsundere-ness in the later episodes/volumes/chapters.
Kagami Hirragi from the anime/manga Lucky Star is a great example of tsundere.

Tsundere 

Tsundere describes someone who isn't very nice, but overtime changes to be nicer.

Or it could describe someone who deeply loves someone but tries to hide it from everyone.

Or it could mean some sadist bitch who beats the absolute shit out of the one she loves.

Tsun-chan: B-b-baaaaaka!

Boring as all hell main character's stupid pervy friend: What a tsundere.

Tsundere is a Japanese term for a character development process that describes a person who is initially cold (and sometimes even hostile) before gradually showing a warmer, friendlier side over time. The word is derived from the terms tsun tsun, meaning to turn away in disgust, and dere dere meaning to become 'lovey dovey'.

Tsundere 

A person usually a girl that gets blushed over little things said by her/his crush and talk non-sense because her/his heart is skipping light speed. Tsunderes change emotions very quickly, I could call them little scary but also cute.

Tsundere Alice: Uhmm.. I mean I.. I THANK you! You.. you weren't baddd EITHER! (Blushed
