* Gin Ichimaru from ''Manga/{{Bleach}}''. Gin, Aizen, and Tōsen are the last three people to be seen in the Sealed Sword Frenzy OVA. They appear after the credits in the Human world having tea. Gin gets the last speaking role of the OVA, telling the audience to be "careful on your way home." He also does this a lot during his Arrancar Encyclopedia segments in the anime. In fact, you could easily consider Gin to be Bleach's equivalent of Deadpool. Think about it: Both are anti-heroes who work for the villain, but then end up betraying said villain later on(Gin tried to kill Aizen and Deadpool DID try to kill a lot of his employers in the past), Both of them are fourth-wall breakers, Both of them use swords, both of them tend to be happy most of the time and rarely show anger, fear or sadness, both have lots of fangirls, Both of them have ChaoticNeutral tendencies, ect...

** One of the earliest examples occurs in the first chapter. Noa complains she can't keep track of all the geographical data, so Asuma tells her [[MrExposition he'll explain]] two pages later. And ''he does '' - complete with a map and pointer!
** Noa breaks the 4th wall, herself, by turning her back to the reader while taking her physical exam so we can't see her topless. While in another scene, she notes that the manga's becoming more like a cartoon.
