Ynami (pronounced ee-nami), derived from the same Latin root for the word tsunami, connotes a person who is so incredibly sick and pathologically evil that similar to a tsunami, a ynami is completely destructive to the lives of others unfortunate enough to be found within their path.

A ynami is an entirely untrustworthy and evil person at their core. However, it is difficult to immediately identify them, stemming from the fact that a ynami appears at first to be very friendly. This amiability is just a ruse, whereby the ynami is merely waiting for the opportune moment to attack or use their victims.

A ynami is similar to a charlatan, who appears to be gentlemanly, is intelligent, and is very charismatic. Similarly, a ynami is a habitual liar and exceedingly manipulative. However, unlike a charlatan, who's actions are for monetary or professional gain, a ynami is more insidious, acting out of personal ego or simply for the sport of it.

People who do not know the ynami personally are often willing to believe their lies and take them at face value. This stems from the fact that a ynami has an uncanny ability to lie and manipulate, coupled with their exceeding intelligence.

At their core, the ynami is a coward. When confronted, they will create lies to try to get out of a difficult situation. They are also incredibly vindictive, and passive-agressive, using threats and vicarious means to attack anyone who questions them or confronts them with the truth.
''Don't trust him, he's a ynami.''

''Be careful when you go out tonight, he may be charming but he could be also be a ynami.''

''Woe unto him who happens to cross the paths of a ynami''

''Stay away from Jose, he's not just bad news, he's a ynami.''

''My operation went horrible, when I confronted my doctor, he concocted a story full of lies accusing me, saying the reason why I didn't heal was my fault. Turns out my doctor was a ynami''.

A yanki is simply a subculture that was popular in Japan in the 80's and 90's. Moreover, it was basically the style of delinquent students. They were characterized by punch perms or pompadours, shaved eyebrows, altered school uniforms, popping squats, being poor students and causing violence or trouble. Yanki is a term that applies to both boys and girls. Although it is said some yanki would be recruited into the yakuza, or Japanese organized crime, this is not always true. Many yanki simply joined the regular workforce and lived regular, productive lives after high school. Being a yanki was simply a way to enjoy youth and lash out at society similar to the punk rock movement in the West.

Bosozoku had a similar style to yanki, but were known for their outrageous and illegally modified motorcycles. Their outfits usually consisted of long jackets or flight suits consisting of complicated kanji with multiple meanings. On occasion, bike gangs would gather and parade down streets interfering with traffic or waking people at night. In their heyday, both yanki and bosozoku were considered a menace to society.

The term "yanki" has been popularized in American culture through the movie Kamikaze Girls. However, in Japan it comprises whole a genre of comics, movies, and even music.
