* In an [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37mPoKQijj8 infamous scene] from a chapter of ''[[Azumanga Daioh]]'', Osaka thought she'd wake up Yukari-sensei by banging on a frying pan, but since she was half-asleep herself at the time, she took a knife out of the cupboard instead, with the result that Yukari woke up to see a [[Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant|groggy-eyed, knife-wielding Osaka]] standing in the bedroom doorway. |
