It Amused Me: Difference between revisions

* '''''Xellos''''', from ''[[Slayers]]''. After about fifteen episodes' worth of hunting for the Claire Bible, it turns out that he knew where it was all along. He just didn't tell Lina and the others because he found it more entertaining to watch their antics as they went on multiple wild goose chases for the better part of a season. He also is prone to "forgetting" to state key pieces of information to watch the results.

* The only reason Tsuyuri from ''[[Doujin Work]]'' stays involved with the rest of the cast is because their antics amuse her to no end—and she is not above stirring things up even more.

* Urumi Kanzaki in ''[[Great Teacher Onizuka]]''. While her actual reasons for hating adults is more complicated, she states her class terrorism to be a means of "killing time". Being a child prodigy leaves her often bored with the usual lectures, leading her to spend her class time giving teachers very hard questions, sabotaging their equipment, and other pranks. She eventually stopped coming to school altogether, until brought in by Miyabi to "kill time" with Onizuka.

* In ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'', Tsukuyomi pretty much has this as her modus operandi. Unfortunately, the things that seem to amuse her are [[Sex Is Violence|excessive]] [[Orgasmic Combat|violence]], [[Psycho Lesbian|and Setsuna]].
