Line 106:
* Kohsaka from ''[[Genshiken]]''.
{{quote|"Astronomy would be good for me. People are always saying I've got my head in the clouds... though I never remember what I see there."}}
* In ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'', a more disturbing example is [[Ax Crazy|Gates]]. Most of the things he says don't really make sense, and the people who employ him have a hard time understanding what in the world he's talking about. In fact, the last thing he does when Sousuke obliterates his AS (and kills him) is to play with his hair and say, "Maybe I cut it too short?"
** That was a call-back to a comment several episodes earlier -- when his AS shrugs off an attack by the enemy he declares, mockingly "That might have hurt me, if my sideburns had been shorter!" But Gates really is disturbed -- he watches a nature film on squirrels while naked for recreation in one episode. It started out with footage of kittens, and while he was on the phone with one of his subordinates he was furiously tearing tissues out of a tissue box.
** Sousuke qualifies too. His thought processes are unique even among his fellow mercenaries. He's paranoid to the point of absurdity, and frequently misinterprets things other people say to be threats. He can't see anything wrong with [[Heroic Comedic Sociopath|threatening random civilians with guns, blowing up a row of shoe lockers, and the list goes on and on]]. And the conclusions he draws are... sometimes rather outlandish.
