* Keyop in ''Anime/BattleOfThePlanets''. He had lines in ''Anime/ScienceNinjaTeamGatchaman''. One fan rumor had it that he used too much profanity for the US networks. Probably not true though.
** Jinpei, the original character, spoke and acted like the smart-ass 10-year-old that he was. Not something the moral guardians wanted to see in an Americanized cartoon. (Joe was the one with the blunt way of speaking.)

* ''Anime/ZombielandSaga'': The Legendary Tae Yamada, being a zombie, can only "speak" through groans, grunts, shrieks, and occasionally garbled imitations of others. And also chicken noises.
* ''Anime/LastPeriod'' has Iwazaru. In keeping with her "speak no evil" theme, everything she says comes out as an unintelligible mumble. Kikazaru translates for her.
* ''Manga/BlackClover'' has Gordon Agrippa. It's one of the reasons people find him creepy as he's always mumbling. It makes him look like he is always casting curses, which makes him seem even more intimidating. Over time he speaks louder, allowing his squadmates to actually understand him.

* Daikichi Komusubi from ''Manga/{{Eyeshield 21}}'' communicates mainly through grunts and short sentences. It's said he speaks in ''pawa-go'' ("Powerspeak"), which only strong men, like his "sensei" Kurita, can understand (though oddly enough, Mamori seems able to understand him as well).
