Girl with Psycho Weapon: Difference between revisions

** {{spoiler|And she does all this while [[Stepford Smiler|smiling pleasantly]].}}

* 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.

'''Osaka''': Oh, you're awake? I screwed up. }}

** Even funnier in the manga, where she just says "That's too bad." (Referring back to the fact that she's always wanted to try the frying-pan thing, but imagine being in Yukari's position and hearing that...)

* ''[[Rats, Bats, and Vats|Rats Bats and Vats]]'' does this as part of {{spoiler|the [[Spoiled Brat]] [[Meaningful Name|Virginia "Ginny" Shaw's]]}} [[Incredibly Lame Pun|getting]] [[Chainsaw Good|better]].

* [[The Grim Reaper|Death]]'s adopted daughter in ''[[Discworld/The Light Fantastic|The Light Fantastic]]'':

** In later [[Discworld]] books, her daughter Susan has much the same effect, despite being [[Only Sane Man|decidedly un-deranged]]. She does still have a [[Sinister Scythe]], after all, and there's something ''more'' chilling about her variety of sanity.

** Of course, due to the level of [[Retcon]] in the early Discworld books, when we properly meet Ysabell in [[Discworld/Mort|Mort]], just ''two books later'', she's a perfectly normal (normal enough, anyway) girl, albeit a bit spoiled.

* In ''[[Ruddigore]]'', when Robin, as Sir Ruthven Murgatroyd, has kidnapped Dame Hannah, she draws a small dagger to defend herself with, but what makes him cringe in terror is when seizes a much larger dagger from an armored figure and tosses the smaller one to him.
