History DeadpanSnarker / AnimeAndManga

* [[AntiHero Seto Kaiba]] has more than a few moments in ''Anime/YuGiOh''.

* The Hinooka sisters from ''LightNovel/FireGirl''. The younger one more so than the older one. Orie Kujou and Takumi Touya count too.

%%* The ''Anime/PrettyCure'' franchise has [[Anime/YesPrettyCure5 Cure Rouge]], [[Anime/SuitePrettyCure Cure Muse]], [[Anime/SmilePrettyCure Cure Sunny]] and [[Anime/DokiDokiPrettyCure Cure Diamond]].

* ''[[LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya]]'' Kyon fits this perfectly, as well as being the main character ''and'' the {{narrator}}. We aren't always sure if he's keeping a running commentary [[InnerMonologue in his head]] or [[DidIJustSayThatOutLoud saying it out loud]]. However, the other characters reply accordingly. Kyon is the ''king'' of sarcasm! Just ''Listen'' to him!

* ''LightNovel/HighSchoolDXD'' has Issei and Azazel who can snark at other people pretty well, especially [[FirstPersonSmartass when it's their turn to do the narration.]] Koneko as well;
-->'''Koneko:''' Watch out. That sacred gear has the ability to break off women’s clothes instantly.
-->'''Issei:''' Koneko! Why are you telling my secrets to the enemy?
-->'''Koneko:''' Because you are the enemy of all women.

* [[{{Tsundere}} Kagami Hiiragi]] from ''Manga/LuckyStar'' is considered to be the GenderFlip version of [[LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya Kyon]]. She makes very cynical and sarcastic comments about [[OtakuSurrogate Konata]]'s {{otaku}} hobbies and her inability to put more focus on her academic studies. Kagami is supposed to be the most rational character of the FourGirlEnsemble. In the dub, Kagami sounds [[SugarWiki/SuperlativeDubbing snarkier and angrier when it comes to these moments]].

* Gourry in the original ''LightNovel/{{Slayers}}'' novels. With a healthy dose of ObfuscatingStupidity as well. Applies more to Zelgadis in the anime. Gourry is deadpan, but that's usually because he's serious and there's no hint of snark.

* ''Manga/SoulEater'': Liz is typically like this, befitting her role as OnlySaneMan of the PowerTrio consisting of her, her [[TheDitz ditz]] sister, and her SuperOCD Meister.

--->'''[[TheChick Yamcha]]:''' Gohan's here, and he's stronger then Cell so why don't you get out of here.\\

%%* From Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion, There's [[HotScientist Ritsuko]], [[ShrinkingViolet Shinji]], [[DefrostingIceQueen Rei]] and [[HandsomeLech Kaji]].

** As a [[FusionDance fusion]] of Goku and Vegeta, Vegito is quite the DeadpanSnarker with the snark level turned UpToEleven. Gogeta, his FusionDance counterpart in various media, qualifies as this too.

-->'''Tsuchikage:''' The makeup of the Five Kages sure has changed. It's hard to believe someone as young as yourself can become a Kazekage. Your father must have trained you very well, but you seem to be lacking in manners, boy.
-->'''Gaara:''' You're right. And yet here I am, as the Kazekage.

-->'''Tobi:''' Back away from the jinchuuriki... or don't you care if your son dies?\\

-->'''Tobi:''' It's what you'd call a fail-safe... Although he only got as far as the "fail" part.

* Conan Edogawa and Ai Haibara from ''Manga/DetectiveConan''. Does [[FountainOfYouth APTX-4869]] always make {{Teen Genius}}es to act like this?
** On occasion even Kogoro Mouri can become this.

%%* The ''Franchise/PrettyCure'' franchise has [[Anime/YesPrettyCure5 Cure Rouge]], [[Anime/SuitePrettyCure Cure Muse]], [[Anime/SmilePrettyCure Cure Sunny]] and [[Anime/DokiDokiPrettyCure Cure Diamond]].
