Line 81:
*** Let's not forget his classic "They found me!" line , which is all the more hilarious when one looks at this [http://img211.imageshack.us/img211/4434/juanwolf2.jpg size comparison pic], yes the circled person is one of the regular giants.
** [[Fat Bastard|Wapol]], the villain of the Drum Island arc is [[Evil Is Petty|ridiculously petty and immature]]. He rules his kingdom the way a bully dominates the playground, and upon being scolded for not taking potential threats to his land seriously by another king, he [[Would Hurt A Child|''slapped the man's five year old daughter'']] just to piss him off.
** As a consequence of the 4Kids dub's more juvenile writing, Arlong went from the Fishman equivalent of a
* Rip van Winkle from ''[[Hellsing]]'' is an excitable young woman who likes to sing opera and enjoys killing things. She intends on conquering the world for [[Those Wacky Nazis|Millennium]].
* Vincent from ''[[Pandora Hearts]]'' might as well be the king of this trope due to his nasty habit or slicing up dolls with scissors and {{spoiler|causing the tragedy of Sabrie}}.
Line 93:
* [[Expendable Clone|Eva-R and Eva-Q]] in ''[[Seikon no Qwaser]]'' are [[Happiness in Slavery|conscious of and delighted with being playthings]], meant to suffer and die for Eva Silver. And yet in a backwards way, they regard any prospective dominant (i.e., anyone they look at) as their plaything, and are quick to break any 'toy' who isn't breaking ''them'' to their satisfaction.
* ''[[Naruto]]'' has a mixture of villains who act mature and others who act like kids, though to be fair the same is true of the heroes.
** Orochimaru definitely has
** The Type B Deidara is even worse and commits ''suicide'' just because Sasuke had beaten him and was treating him with indifference.
** Sasori is a mix of B and C. He is an insanely talented and cold-blooded Puppetmaster in his 30's, who also transferred his essence into a puppet resembling his 15 year old self, and was more or less beaten by a memory of his parents coming to hug him. [[Justified Trope]], though: Sasori's parents were killed in battle by Kakashi's father Sakumo when Sasori was a baby ''and'' he left the Sand Village when he was around 15 years old after killing and turning the 3rd Kazekage into one of his puppets. From his broken childhood to his subsequent defect from his village, he grew cold and stoic due to the lack of parental love. His emotions were stunted to that of an abandoned, forgotten child.
** Pain is a deliberate inversion however, as his villainy derives from a twisted version of Jiraiya's philosophy that growing up is based on suffering; since he has suffered so much, Pain believes that he has matured into [[A God Am I|godhood]] (in a non-Westernsense).
** What, no Hidan? The anime portrays him as a big Type B: he's pretty much the Akatsuki version of a [[Hot-Blooded]] teenager in the body of an adult man.
** Tobi of the Akatsuki already comes off as goofy and childish while helping the shadowy cabal commit various atrocities, but once his true identity as {{spoiler|Obito Uchiha}} is revealed, he ramps this trope [[Up to 11]]. {{spoiler|His master plan is to create a perfect dream world where the good guys always win, and where his childhood crush Rin will be alive and happy. A combination of childhood trauma and Madara Uchiha's manipulations ensured that he'd be stuck with the mentality of an irrational preteen angry at the world far into adulthood.}}
* Gates from ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'' is an over-emotional [[Cloudcuckoolander]] who acts rather like a child throwing temper-tamtrums, and whose completely random actions would be [[Laughably Evil|hilarious]] if they didn't involve [[Ax Crazy|killing so many people]].
* The villain from the second episode of ''[[Pumpkin Scissors]]'' shows signs of this, in that he kills the people in his charge as part of a fun game, and is hinted to be capricious to the people in his court.
Line 108 ⟶ 109:
* Amaimon of ''[[Blue Exorcist]]'' is a demon king who displays childish [[Cloudcuckoolander]] tendencies, uses his visits to the human realm mainly for sightseeing, and is extremely fond of candy. He's also excited by the thought of killing people and treats fighting like some sort of "fun" game.
* Michio Yuki, the [[Villain Protagonist]] of ''[[MW]]'', is either type C or D.
