Line 28:
* This is arguably why [[Magic Kaito|Kaito Kid]] does things like tie-die people's underpants while they're still wearing them, use blinding pink sleeping-gas, and flip Aoko's skirt.
** And on the part of the author, this is probably why Kaito has a [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?|phobia of fish]] and can't ice skate.
* Why Izaya does ''anything'' in ''[[Durarara!!]]''.
* [[Trickster Mentor|Urahara]] from ''[[Bleach]]'' also has a tendency to screw with people just for the hell of it. When beginning training, he gives Ichigo a helmet and claims that Ichigo needs to yell "Take this! The power of justice! Justice armor! Justice hachimaki! Attack!" When Ichigo does so almost instantly, Urahara mutters, "Wow! I can't believe he actually said that!"
** Or the famous scene where he writes directions to Ichigo, Orihime, Ishida, and Chad outside of their houses... in blood. Scrawled underneath these directions are the words, "If you thought this was straight out of a horror movie, you have no sense of humor." Incidentally, that is ''exactly'' what they all thought.
Line 42:
* In ''[[One Piece]]'', this is Mihawk's justification for destroying Don Krieg's fleet and pursuing the survivors: He was bored, and they were there. He also allows Zoro to live following their duel for the same reason: Zoro has potential to be amusing for a very long time, once he [[Takes a Level In Badass]].
* The Prince of Dogra from ''[[Level E]]''. He's the kind of guy who <s>can</s> will ''buy a planet'' and hand out advanced military tech just to play a (potentially deadly) prank on five random grade-schoolers and his second-in-command. Because he thinks it's funny.
* {{spoiler|Ronnie Suchiart}} of ''[[Baccano!]]'' cites this as the motivation for most of his actions. Very old and very powerful [[Eldritch Abomination|Eldritch Abominations]] tend to also get very ''bored''.
* Cell from ''[[Dragonball Z]]'' spiced up his [[For the Evulz]] with this. Fat Buu from the same combined it with his creator's [[For the Evulz]]. And, although he's mostly serious about being [[The Cape (trope)]] (with no cape), Son Goku himself plays the trope fairly straight (many times to his cost, such as when he [[Idiot Hero|prolonged the fight against Frieza after he turned Super Saiyan]], [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero|allowing the latter to destroy Namek]] and to deploy his full power. This enabled Frieza to [[What the Hell, Hero?|waste more of Goku's then-precious time]] because he was momentarily capable to keep him in check, mostly with speed). Also, Gohan in Super Saiyan 2 form, against Cell, and others.
* ''[[Yu Yu Hakusho]]'': {{spoiler|When he discovers he's actually part-[[Youkai]], and thus one of the most powerful beings to exist}}, Yusuke promptly tells [[A God Am I|everyone to "KNEEL BEFORE ME, YOU INSECTS!"]]... before he immediately [[Deadpan Snarker|wonders why anyone would do that]], and has a good laugh at [[Oh Crap|his friends' faces]].
