History Main / GirlWithPsychoweapon

* In ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'', [[spoiler:Asakura Ryouko wields a knife in a menacing fashion - despite [[FridgeLogic the fact that she can]] [[RealityWarper alter reality]] [[JustHitHim and could probably make Kyon's head]] [[YourHeadASplode explode]] [[JustHitHim just by thinking about it]]]].
** [[spoiler: And she does all this while [[StepfordSmiler smiling pleasantly]].]]

* Every angel (especially the main character) in ''LightNovel/BludgeoningAngelDokurochan'' wields a dangerous weapon, usually with extremely violent and gory results. The title character Dokuro uses her giant spiked club Excalibolg on Sakura to [[MadeOfPlasticine splatter him into tiny bits]]...[[OncePerEpisode repeatedly]].

* [[{{Yandere}} Senjougahara Hitagi]] from ''LightNovel/{{Bakemonogatari}}''. Who knew a utility knife and mechanical pencil could be such useful weapons?
* Haruna from ''Anime/IsThisAZombie'' also wields a chainsaw.

* Probably every girl in ''LightNovel/{{Kampfer}}'' could quality, but Shizuku (chained daggers), and Akane (single gun) are the most notable.

* ''LightNovel/{{Durarara}}'' gives us a literal example: [[spoiler:the mostly-stable Sonohara Anri wields Saika, a demonic sword which is itself quite insane]].
* In ''LightNovel/CubeXCursedXCurious'' the girls ARE the weapons and some are not particularly stable.
* Several of the characters in Riser Phenex's Peerage from ''LightNovel/HighSchoolDXD'' use chainsaws and swords.

* ''LightNovel/NyarukoCrawlingWithLove'': Nyarko is primarily a CrowbarCombatant, but at one point she pulls a {{chainsaw|Good}} out of [[TrouserSpace Skirt Space]] and uses it to cleave through a horde of minion-level enemies.

* In ''LightNovel/TheGardenOfSinners'', Shiki Ryougi is a pretty, affable girl who is obsessed with large knives.

* Polly Plantar from [[WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}} Amphibia]]. Despite only being a [[ALizardNamedLiz pollywog]], she has wielded several giant weapons throughout the series, including giant axes, maces, mushroom grenades, etc.

* In ''VideoGame/YumeNikki'', Madotsuki can use a kitchen knife, which causes some characters to move away from her if equipped, and is only effective against characters are harmless anyway (Uboa can't be stabbed, and the Toriningen take multiple hits, and will almost certainly get you first). She has 24 effects/items that she can use in total, but judging by the FanArt, the knife is easily the most remembered. Most player characters in ''Yume Nikk'' fangames tend to wield one. Urotsuki from {{VideoGame/Yume2kki}} in particular uses a {{C|hainsawGood}}HAINSAW, and another one uses [[VideoGame/DotFlow a pipe]] and another [[BiggerStick a club with nails in it]], [[{{VideoGame/LCDDEM}} another]] {{an axe|ToGrind}}, and more.

* [[OlderThanTheyLook Presea]] [[EmotionlessGirl Combatir]] of ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'' fame wields a [[AnAxetoGrind battleaxe]].

* ''Manga/SaitamaChainsawShoujo'' -- Betcha can't guess the main character's WeaponOfChoice. Her name is Fumio Kirisaki, and that's her up at the top of the page. It's not just some random weapon she grabbed, either: she comes from a family of highly-skilled chainsaw users, and has trained with one for most of her life. It's also heavily implied that her grandfather was the chainsaw-wielding sheriff from ''Film/TheTexasChainsawMassacre2''.

* Many, if not all, of the Otherworld characters in the ''Franchise/BlackRockShooter''-verse uses one of these as their WeaponOfChoice. The list includes Black★Gold Saw ([[{{BFS}} King Saw]]), Dead Master ([[SinisterScythe Dead Scythe]]), Strength (mechanical gauntlets almost as big as she is called Ogre Arms)...Even the eponymous character has one in the form of the [[{{BFG}} Rock Cannon]] (As an added bonus, she has a {{Katana|sAreJustBetter}} as well).

* In ''VideoGame/YumeNikki'', Madotsuki can use a kitchen knife, which causes some characters to move away from her if equipped, and is only effective against characters are harmless anyway (Uboa can't be stabbed, and the Toriningen take multiple hits, and will almost certainly get you first).

* The entire point of ''Film/HollywoodChainsawHookers''.
* Creator/ElliotPage dons WolverineClaws in ''Film/{{Super}}''.
* Involed by the title of ''Machete Maidens Unleashed!'', a documentary about Filipino {{Exploitation Film}}s.

* Jade Sinclair (Generator) of the Literature/WhateleyUniverse ''loves'' this trope. There's her plush cabbit doll... that turns into a KillerRabbit and once slaughtered around a dozen badguys in one fight. There's her Hello Kitty compact, which flies... and knives pop out of the sides to become a [[EverythingsBetterWithSpinning spinning top of doom]]. There's 'Spinner', which is basically a lawnmower blade spinning at high speed without the lawnmower engine or housing getting in the way. There's the big athame that she turned into a spinning blade. The railroad spikes. The bear trap.

* Both ''VideoGame/DynastyWarriors'' and ''VideoGame/SamuraiWarriors'' have this in spades. Female characters pack all sorts of psycho weapons like {{kni|feNut}}ves, bladed hoop weapons, and in one particularly notable instance (''Dynasty Warriors''' Bao Sannang) what appears to be a [[KillerYoyo giant yoyo with blade attachments]].

Most commonly the weapons are {{kni|feNut}}ves, but other psycho weapons are also common, such as {{chainsaw|Good}}s or other instruments of pain and destruction.

* ''Fanfic/BetweenMyBrotherAndMe'': Yvonne Maxa is a loud bombastic puppeteer who also is a KnifeNut willing to slice people's throats or stab them until they beg for mercy. She's shown to use multiple stabby weapons like a switch blade, barbed daggers and a stiletto.

* ''Franchise/TouhouProject'' character [[KnifeNut Sakuya]] [[NinjaMaid Izayoi]] seems to be this, to an extent.
** [[SinisterScythe Elly and Komachi]] also fit the trope.
*** [[AxCrazy Flandre]] [[OurVampiresAreDifferent Scarlet]] fits as well, because she is actually a [[LittleMissBadass little girl]] wielding [[{{BFS}} Laeva]][[EnergyWeapon tein]].
*** In {{Fandom}} at least, Utsuho gets depicted with a ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLTpJJAraG8 really]]'' {{BFG}}.

* ''VideoGame/BrainDead13'' has Vivi the Vampiress. Just when you think she can do a manicure as in "treatment for fingernails", she uses the word "manicure" as in "[[AnArmAndALeg cutting off people's hands]] with a [[KnifeNut butcher knife]]", which she has! Yikes!

** Saeko Busujima is known to be a kendo expert and had practice later on in the afternoon that the outbreak occurred, so nobody's really surprised at the fact that she's wielding a [[WoodenKatanasAreEvenBetter bokan]] at the time. It's not until later we learn that she rather...enjoys being able to wield her full strength and skill without remorse or worry, and becomes [[ImmodestOrgasm very excited]] when the main hero gives her a proper sword and effectively tells her to have at it.

[[folder:Web Comics]]

* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'': the [[OnlySaneMan level-headed]] teenage TeamMom troll Kanaya carries lipstick that happens to be a {{chainsaw|Good}} MorphWeapon. She sometimes uses it for its MundaneUtility, sometimes for horrifying but well-intentioned uses like [[spoiler:[[BackAlleyDoctor sawing off]] Tavros' paralyzed legs in his sleep so he can get [[ArtificialLimbsAreStronger prosthetic upgrades]]]], and sometimes for BewareTheNiceOnes carnage like [[spoiler:[[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005434 bisecting Eridan]] in retribution for turning against them]].

* Lady in ''[[VideoGame/DevilMayCry Devil May Cry 3]]'' sports the "Kalina Ann," a modified [[{{BFG}} rocket launcher]] that is topped off with a bayonet.

* Many, if not all, of the Otherworld characters in the ''Franchise/BlackRockShooter''-verse uses one of these as their WeaponOfChoice. The list includes Black★Gold Saw ([[{{BFS}} King Saw]]), Dead Master ([[SinisterScythe Dead Scythe]]), Strength (mechanical gauntlets almost as big as she is)...Even the eponymous character has one in the form of the [[{{BFG}} Rock Cannon]] (As an added bonus, she has a {{Katana|sAreJustBetter}} as well).

* Kokoa of ''Manga/RosarioToVampire Season 2'' turns a small bat named Kyou into any weapon she feels like having. On the front of the second volume she is seen carrying some kind of saw-sword or [[http://animeradius.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Rosario2-2-Cover-.jpg something ]].

** [[spoiler:Minerva]] from season 4 goes AxCrazy in the final episode after [[spoiler: her former friends all [[WeUsedToBeFriends renounce her as a violent traitor]] after she makes clear her allegiance to The Delta, the militia group who kidnapped her and her sister, who they eventually goaded her into killing to prove her loyalty. The main characters destroy The Delta's cargo ship to free their captured friends, and Minnie gets bit by walkers in several places in the process. She then proceeds to chase after the group with an axe in one hand and a gun in the other, intending to kill her brother Tenn so that they can be TogetherInDeath, and if she can get the chance, take down Clementine as well, since she blames her for convincing everyone to fight against The Delta instead of just letting themselves be captured.]]

She eventually hunts down the main characters with an axe in one hand and a gun in the other, intending to kill [[spoiler:her brother Tenn]] so that they can be TogetherInDeath.

** Molly from season 1 fights with an ice axe she calls Hilda. And she's more badass with it than all the other characters combined.

She's usually also {{Yandere}}, or, failing that, CuteAndPsycho.

* Tenten in ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' with her temporary Jidanda: one oversized [[SpikeBallsOfDoom Spiky Ball of Doom]].

* Throughout the ''Franchise/{{Superman}}'' storyline "[[ComicBook/SupergirlRebirth The Killers of Krypton]]", sweet, cute, sixteen-year-old ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} carries around an oversized, double-headed battleaxe which manipulates and fuels its wielder's anger.

* The entire point of ''Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers''.

* Cho Hakkaimon from ''Anime/DigimonXrosWarsTheYoungHuntersLeapingThroughTime'' is a cute girl wielding a giant, scary maul-like weapon.

* [[{{Yandere}} Kaede Fuyou]] of ''VisualNovel/{{Shuffle}}'' is best known for doing this [[spoiler: on the very UnluckyEverydude she's chasing after, when she thought he was to blame for her mother's death; a part of [[ExtremeDoormat her devotion to Rin]] comes from her guilt over this incident]].
