Trigger Happy: Difference between revisions

* Gauron from ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]''. He actually had to be restrained from shooting a pilot (who was the only one who even knew how to operate the plane everyone was on), all because he just likes [[For the Evulz|shooting and killing so much]].

** Sousuke is also ''very'' [[Trigger Happy]], but in the more non-lethal way. He just really seems to like shooting and [[Mad Bomber|blowing things up]]. In the ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]! Overload'' manga, this is [[Character Exaggeration|taken to an extreme]], where [[Comedic Sociopathy|it might very well have been the lethal way, but is played for laughs]]. In fact, it's so bad that in one of the stories, he's actually shown having ''withdrawal symptoms'' because he hadn't shot a gun that day (due to promising Chidori he wouldn't bring his guns or shoot anyone). He [[Lampshades]] it by thinking that he shouldn't feel this way, since it would make him a Gun Maniac. To put it in his thoughts: "The recoil and muzzle flash when I fire, the lingering smell of gunpowder... experiencing these on the battlefield truly makes me feel alive!" Indeed, in the ''Overload'' manga, he's actually ''more'' of a [[Trigger Happy]] maniac than Gauron (yes, he officially [[Beyond the Impossible|achieved the impossible there]]).

*** Sousuke is actually, ''officially'' [[Lampshaded]] as "The Trigger-Happiest S.O.B." in ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'' - so in other words, in canon, yes, he is indeed moreso than everyone ''including'' Gauron. (Though this actually makes a bit more sense when one takes into account that ''[[Knife Nut|knives]]'' are Gauron's chosen weapon and specialty, not guns... since he [[Ax Crazy|enjoys slashing and cutting people up close and personal]].)

* In ''[[Warhammer Fantasy Battle]]'' the Skaven Doomwheel must be fired at someone every turn. If there are enemies within range, all the better.
