* Gendo Ikari from ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' seems bound and determined to keep as much of his face obscured as possible—not only does he wear [[Scary Shiny Glasses]], he's in the habit of [[Clasp Your Hands If You Deceive|folding his hands in front of his face]] whenever he sits at a table. Other characters have a strange compulsion to put clipboards or pieces of paper [[Filming for Easy Dub|in front of their mouths whenever they speak]]. |

* While several of the more humanoid characters in [[Yume Nikki]] lack mouths due to the simple sprite style, there is some debate as to whether or not [[Ensemble Darkhorse|Seccom Masada]] is actually supposed to have a mouth. Some of the fanart which depicts the human characters (such as Madotsuki or Poniko) more realistically still portrays Masada as having no mouth [[The Noseless|or nose]]. |
