It is a portmanteau of the Japanese terms Шаблон:Nihongo, meaning to be stern or hostile, and Шаблон:Nihongo, meaning to be "lovey dovey".
• Шаблон:Nihongo3: A term for a person who is initially loving and caring to someone they like a lot until their romantic love, admiration and devotion becomes feisty and mentally destructive in nature through either overprotectiveness, violence, brutality or all three combined.
