'''{{smallcaps|Alice}}:''' You want me to move that?
'''{{smallcaps|Bob}}:''' Oh, no. Just thinking out loud. }}
Line 20:
* Gatomon in ''[[Digimon Adventure]]'' does this while pondering her past. Wizardmon overhears her and asks a question. Not realizing she was talking out loud, Gatomon gets angry believing Wizardmon was reading her mind.
* From ''[[Digimon Savers]]'' we have [[Fusion Dance|Bio-Hybrid]] [[Dumb Muscle|Ivan]]. He constantly blurts out embarassing thoughts outloud, not realizing his mistake even when Namani and Yoshi inform him they can hear every word he's saying.

* In ''[[RIN-NE]]'', chapter 28, Egawa gives one, and it's lampshaded.

* Chopper of ''[[One Piece]]'' combines this with [[I'm Standing Right Here]] when he both thinks out loud and badmouths his hosts because he'd thought them crude primitives at first glance.
* Pretty much the trademark of [[The Prince of Tennis|Shinji Ibu]]. Hilariously invoked in one of his [[Image Song|Image songs]] and the Talk time track of said CD, which is basically Shinji mumbling nonstop.

== Comic Books ==
* ''[[Deadpool]]'', as [[Medium Awareness|Medium Aware]] as he is, sometimes thinks out loud completely unintentionally. This "outer monologue" often still uses the narrative boxes. Example from ''Cable & Deadpool'' issue 30:
{{quote|
'''Deadpool:''' ''Hey, that's twice now. What's going on here?''
'''Big Bertha:''' "''You're saying everything out loud!''"
'''Deadpool:''' ''I am?''
'''Big Bertha:''' "'''''Yes!'''''"
'''Deadpool:''' ''Oh. Weird. Coulda sworn I was in'' '''''[[Lampshade Hanging|first person narrative]]''''' ''form.'' }}
* A downright ridiculous example is [http://coa.inducks.org/story.php?c=I+TL+2263-1 the Disney comic "The Mystery of the Old Mansion"], where the villain is busy with his work and suddenly, for no reason, spontaneously decides to recite four pages' worth of backstory, complete with dramatic acting.
Line 70:
* Of course, [[Shakespeare]]'s plays contain many notable examples. The tradition continues until the late 19th century [[Dead Horse Trope|with the advent of Realism]].
* Parodied sometimes by [[Gilbert and Sullivan]]. For example, in ''The Mikado'':

* Professor Farnsworth, in the ''[[Futurama]]'' episode ''The Sting'', does this intentionally to get a point across:
{{quote|
* Dib from ''[[Invader Zim]]'' did this so often that his outer monologues eventually were punctuated exclusively by people confused about this, [[Lampshade Hanging|including he himself wondering why he does it]].
* A version of this occurs in ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'' with Candace constantly talking to herself, pointing to that she also assumes everyone she knows has heard what she said. Played for laughs when she tells Phineas she's gonna call mom "...And this time I'm not using the banana!"
Line 95:
** Beezy responds by saying: [[Lampshade Hanging|"Enough with the thinking out loud!"]]
* Done by Rainbow Dash in the ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' episode [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S2 E7 May the Best Pet Win|"May the Best Pet Win"]].
