The examples in the OP don't really qualify as "trolling", and basically read, 'X is silly, or 'X is funny', without going into detail. At the very least, they should include specific examples of either when, or how, the character trolls.

For example:

!!!Anime and Manga
*{{Patlabor}}: [[LaughablyEvil Richard]] [[AdultChild Wong]] seems to live for this, as seen during the Griffon arc, where he seems to make a game of deliberately antognizing the [=SVU2=], his boss at Schaft, and his partner, Kurosaki!
**Even his ex, [[spoiler: Kumagami]], wasn't spared. In The New Files series, he pretends to give himself up because of his feelings for her. When she falls for it, [[BridalCarry he scoops her up]] and [[FunnyMoments literally dumps her... in a laundry basket]], before making his escape!
**His partner, Kurosaki, doesn't get spared either. After learning Kurosaki planted a remote bomb aboard the Griffon, Wong tricks him into handing over the detonator [[spoiler: [[TheDragon to save Bado]]]], by telling him he had already discovered it, during a maintainance check, and disarmed it. Once [[spoiler: Bado]] is clear of the Griffon's wreckage, he presses the switch, leading to this:
-->'''Kurosaki: (surprised)''' "But... but you said you disarmed it!"
-->'''Wong: (in sing song fashion)''' [[ILied "IIII~IIII liiiii~eeeed!"]]
**[[AFatherToHisMen Captain]] [[TricksterMentor Gotoh]] also has a habit of trolling, though not as much as Wong. Kanuka often calls him out on this, as does [=SVU1's=], [[DeadpanSnarker Captain]] [[LoveInterest Nagumo.]] At one point, he makes a show of confronting a labor, to impress his squad. When Shinobu asks about it, later, he nonchalantly reveals he only did 'cuz [[spoiler: Sakaki had assured him that the labor was harmless.]]
-->'''Shinobu: (disillusioned)''' "You mean '''THAT's''' why you went out?"
-->'''Gotoh: (deadpan)''' "Pretty much. Yeah."
-->'''Shinobu: (exasperated sigh)''' "I give up. [[SarcasmMode So what'll your adoring public think when they find out?"]]
-->'''Gotoh: (smirks toward the door)''' "I wonder?"
-->'''Asuma, Nao, Kanuka, Otah, and Hirumi: (eavesdropping outside door)''' "THAT CHEAT!!"
