 * >she already had the yandere part from the start
 * >they don't have to be from the latest installment

You see, from the start Nu is mostly an emotionless PFD, and she developed into something else only in CF. Yes, for sure, she was all yandere around Ragna, but Jin also goes yandere around Ragna, and somehow no-one thinks that it is his defining trait and he is as yandere as Nu.

My reasoning is, she is a PFD which shows emotions. Lambda acts emotionless, Es acts emotionless, they use the generic emotionless line. Mu is something else, though.
 * >I was thinking of perhaps something that contains a mix of 'yandere' persona and 'emotionless weapon' persona

Which is that line I suggested. An "emotionless weapon" line, reworked into what a "yandere" would say.

Yes, I sure don't have to look for good quotes in CF, but the point is: the characters are developing. So, we can use one of Carl's lines about how all adults are evil, or about how he will stop his father, or about his wish to save Ada, but what's the point of that line if he doesn't care about this stuff anymore and basically is evolving into Relius?

We can use one of Es' lines from XBlaze, something about caring for her friends and family or whatever, but in CF she only acts in accordance with the will of the Azure, reverting to her pre-CE self.

And don't act like I'm looking only at CF, Hakumen's got his old CT quote, that guy doesn't evolve at all. Tao will have one of CT-CS quotes, she doesn't appear enough in later games.

CF just has enough moments that define the characters, with its arcade mode being entirely about desires and dreams of these characters.
