Line 62:
** [[The Hero|Ed]] gets his share of snarkiness as well, often towards Mustang.
*** And vice versa.
* Akira Takano from ''[[School Rumble]]'' tends to be the [[Straight Man|voice of reason]] among her [[Four -Girl Ensemble|girl squad (with Tenma, Eri and Mikoto)]], and is able to make astute observations about the romantic hijinks of her friends while keeping a straight face the whole time.
* Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara from ''[[Detective Conan (Manga)|Detective Conan]]''. Does [[Fountain of Youth|APTX-4869]] always make [[Teen Genius|Teen Geniuses]] to act like this?
* Sven from ''[[Black Cat (Manga)|Black Cat]]'' is the [[Deadpan Snarker]] in Train's group.
Line 84:

'''Meowth:''' Dat's what worries me. }}
** And now in ''Best Wishes'' Ash's new rival [[Kuudere|Trip]] is a very snarky individual. However, most of his comments goes toward Ash only and given [[Hot -Blooded|Ash's]] [[Keet|personality]], it's no wonder he makes them.
{{quote| '''Trip:''' "That voice can be heard on the opposite side of the street..." (after Ash demands that he battle him completely ignoring the comment made)<br />
'''Trip''': "Humans usually don't try to capture themselves in a Pokeball." (after Ash gets in the way of him trying to catch a Palpitoad causing Trip to accidentally hit Ash in the face with said Pokeball) }}
Line 94:
* Lots of characters from ''[[Gintama (Manga)|Gintama]]'', especially Yorozuya trio, since good deal of the comedy is based on deadpan comments. But the snarkiest of them all has to be Okita Sougo. Almost everything that comes out of this guy's mouth is deadpan iced with lots of snark.
* Madarao and Hakubi from ''[[Kekkaishi (Manga)|Kekkaishi]]'' almost constantly take jabs at Yoshimori and each other.
* [[Tsundere|Kagami Hiiragi]] from ''[[Lucky Star (Anime)|Lucky Star]]'' is considered to be the [[Gender Flip]] version of [[Haruhi Suzumiya (Light Novel)|Kyon]]. She makes very cynical and sarcastic comments about [[Otaku Surrogate|Konata]]'s [[Otaku]] hobbies and her inability to put more focus on her academic studies. Kagami is supposed to be the most rational character of the [[Four -Girl Ensemble]]. In the dub, Kagami sounds [[Superlative Dubbing|snarkier and angrier when it comes to these moments]].
* Leeron plays this role some of the time in ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]''.
