A character whose overwhelming trait is that they are absolutely filthy. Not filthy in morals, behaviors or ethics, but someone whose body is actually covered in filth. The person might have other qualities as well, but their filthiness is bad in relation to the rest of the cast, or at least the setting. There is a good chance that they are not pleasant to look at.
Line 18 ⟶ 19:
* In ''[[Moyashimon]]'', when we first see Aoi Mutō she's absolutely filthy and covered in germs, including a number of food poisoning pathogens. However, this is just because she's just gotten back from a long sojourn across Eurasia, and didn't exactly have a lot of opportunities to bathe and change her clothes.
* ''[[Dragon Ball]]'' - In the first tournament arc, Krillin faces off against Bacterian, a huge fat guy whose main superpower is the unbearable stench emanating from his person due to the fact that he supposedly has never bathed once in his entire life. {{spoiler|Krillin eventually manages to beat him when he's reminded by Goku that ''he doesn't have a nose'', and thus can't smell him.}}
:Krillin also {{spoiler|had to ''fart in Bacterian's face'', meaning that Bacterian could handle only his ''own'' stench.}} But the other ways Bacterian fought...[[Nausea Fuel|poor, poor Krillin]]...
 
* In the ''[[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei|Zan Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei]]'' [[OVA]] we're introduced to [[Neat Freak|Kitsu]] [[Control Freak|Chiri's]] older sister, Kitsu Tane, who became The Pig Pen and godess over the [[Trash of the Titans]] trope by choice in order to save the life of their gold fish, which Chiri had decided to clean (using shampoo). Unfortunately for Tane, she had to maintain this behavior for so many years, it eventually got stuck (literary, trash seems to follow her around) and now she can't even take proper care of herself... She once appeared on TV in a ''How Clean Is Your House'' like show.
