** [[spoiler:Simon Petrikov as]] the Ice King. His homicidally dangerous and mentally unstable behavior is mostly due to his insanity and dementia thanks to the influence of his crown, with the Ice King being too insane to even know what he's really doing.

* Around the end of ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' [[spoiler:Azula definitely qualifies, having absolutely lost it after Mai and Ty Lee betrayed her. She has an absolute [[VillainousBreakdown breakdown]] before her final battle with Zuko and Katara]]. Ozai also counts as this as while he’s usually very self-controlled, if {{sadist}}ic and short tempered, his glee at [[spoiler:torching the Earth Kingdom in the climax]] shows just how much of a violent, [[TheSociopath sociopathic]] madman he is just inches beneath the surface.
* ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'': Poison Ivy near the end of her [[Recap/BatmanTheAnimatedSeriesE5PrettyPoison debut episode]]. Her [[TheTease sensual, sultry]] disposition evaporates the moment Batman kicks her to the ground. After which we see the volatile murderess she is underneath on full display, unloading crossbow arrows at him.

** In early seasons, Stewie was an extremely {{sadist}}ic, deranged, homicidal baby psychopath obsessed with killing his mother, had a penchant for random violence, and did not hesitate to commit murder or torture if it brought him closer to his goals. He certainly has gotten [[TookALevelInKindness saner and nicer]] over time, but it's still there.

** He literally ''pulls the teeth out of a deer's mouth'' and presents them to Gideon with a cheerful "for you!"
** There's also Dipper's comment from "Weirdmageddon: Part 2" on some rather questionable glitter rain: "Knowing Bill, it's probably just bones, or ground up babies, or something."
** And let's not forget about how he rearranged the face of someone on a whim, [[AndIMustScream removing their mouth.]]

* ''WesternAnimation/HarleyQuinn2019'': Harley of course. As one might expect from the Joker's former top enforcer, she's short-tempered, unstable, and gleefully, eye-wateringly violent. As if to accentuate how violently insane she is, her happiest memory is apparently chopping one of her dolls' heads off with a cleaver when she was six.

** Dale Gribble is a bit of a mild example from this series. Dale is a major ConspiracyTheorist who thinks that everything and everyone is out to get him. He is also the most prone to threatening to kill others including his own friends and has been described as "mentally unstable" numerous times throughout the series. It doesn't help he's a professional exterminator and carries more guns than a regular person should need.

** Courtney is a more subtle version. While she starts out just a little uptight and arrogant, her unfair elimination in ''Island'' seems to have done a number on her sanity and from then on she seems to be [[HairTriggerTemper extremely quick to resort to violence at the slightest inconvenience]], and so obsessive that it comes across as somewhat divorced from reality. Heather even points out that she's become as unstable as Izzy following [[spoiler: Courtney's boyfriend Duncan cheating on her with Gwen.]]

While he is normally unhinged and a tall-order SadistTeacher, it becomes especially apparent in "The Secret Origin of Denzel Crocker" (where he subjects his students to all number of sadistic punishments, like making Timmy sit on a stool surrounded by [[BewareOfViciousDog rabid dogs]], because it's his most hated day of the year) and in TheMovie ''WesternAnimation/AbraCatastrophe''.''WesternAnimation/AbraCatastrophe'' (where he does things like turn his students into ice sculptures and ''toilets'').
