Ditzy Genius: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Bleach]]'': Orihime is a straight-A student and third best in a 300-pupil year group. She also has black-belt karate skills (bizarrely [[Adaptation Decay|downgraded]] to yellow belt in the anime) and is one of the two most gifted members of the Handicraft Club (alongside Uryuu Ishida who is joint-first best student in the year group and himself capable of Ditzy Genius behaviour). Despite her genuine intelligence, she's also a [[Cloudcuckoolander]] with a very active imagination, resulting in her having sometimes bizarre reactions to mundane events.

* The title character of ''[[Suzumiya Haruhi]]'' is brilliant at most things she does, scoring incredibly high in all her classes and every sport she tries with minimal effort, but she utterly fails when it comes to anything that requires her to consider other people's points of view, like the movie she made. She thought it was brilliant; everyone else was... less enthused. At one point she fails to comprehend why [[Death Is Dramatic|characters always die at the climax of a story]], and another time she complains that crabs didn't evolve softer shells so she could eat them easier. She also fails to realize that wearing a [[Playboy Bunny]] outfit at school would upset the teachers. And then there's her general [[Insane Troll Logic]], such as pointing out that Tanabata wishes will take years to reach their destination due to the speed of light delay, but expecting that Orihime and Hikoboshi will be able to ignore the lightspeed barrier because [[A Wizard Did It|they're gods.]]
