* ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic'': The normally calm and [[TheStoic Stoic]] Sousuke Sagara becomes a complete dork around women or when confronted with romance or anything sexual. Both Kaname and Tessa admit that one of the reasons they like him is that even the [[ShellShockedVeteran PTSD-riddled]], terrifying military persona can't mask the fact that he's ultimately an earnest, socially awkward dork just trying his best to be helpful ([[HeroWithAnFInGood even if he's terrible at it]].)

* ''LightNovel/HighSchoolDXD'': Many characters end up being this trope in one way or another. The most prominent examples are [[KidHero Issei]], [[StatuesqueStunner Rias]], [[NiceGirl Asia]] & [[ShrinkingViolet Gasper]].

* ''LightNovel/LogHorizon'': Akatsuki roleplays being a ninja constantly, has trouble conversing with other people, but is very earnest, so when she speaks, what comes out is sometimes very awkward.
* ''LightNovel/LoveChunibyoAndOtherDelusions'': Rikka, As a result of her small and cuddly appearance awkwardly contrasting with [[MrImagination her delusions of grandeur]].

* ''LightNovel/ThePetGirlOfSakurasou'': Mashiro can easily be summed up as an IdiotSavant. While sometimes her mannerisms would enrage her CloudcuckoolandersMinder Sorata, the first OP, written in Sorata's voice, seems to put her straight into this trope:

* ''LightNovel/{{Slayers}}'': Gourry Gabriev is often viewed as adorkable by fangirls. He's a [[GeniusDitz badass swordsman]], but his [[IdiotHero terrible memory]] (at least in the anime) and tendency to be really sweet and a genuinely nice guy make him totally {{Adorkable}}. Less so in the original novels; Gourry's actually got a bit of a dry, snarky sense of humor and he's more observant than Lina gives him credit for. Gourry's anime portrayal seems to be a {{Flanderization}} of how Lina perceives him; viz. as nonmagical as it's possible to get and therefore a complete moron.

* Being a shut-in gamer for most of his life, [[LightNovel/SwordArtOnline Kirito]] is not very good with social interactions, especially when it comes to girls, having a tendency to trip over his own words so others gets the wrong idea.

* Jean from ''Anime/NadiaTheSecretOfBlueWater''. Not only is he intelligent, he is also generous, sweet-natured, caring, friendly, loyal, naive, and dedicated to what he likes. He's quite brave, as well. Of course he's naturally green when it comes to social graces around the opposite sex, but in a way it proves to be an asset. Nadia's English voice actress once said that she would date someone like him "in a heartbeat".
