They are quite the characters, aren't they?

Maybe that psycho blondie gal from Bitter virgin. Those characters who're mentally unhinged and spend their time wavering from 1 state to another(like from super psychotic to super happy/super nice) are the most frightening 'cos you can never tell what they're thinking of next.
Now, if we're talking about people like Johan, the psychos from MPD Psycho, Kanou from Okane Ga Nai, Asami from Viewfinder, etc.,: hmmm... generally, though... most of such characters don't really freak me out 'cos I admire their capacity for intelligence, ruthlessness and cruelty. In essence, they're classified as "people I'd want to know about but whom I'd never want to meet" like the serial killers and psychos I sometimes dedicate my time to reading about. smile

Agreed, with you and lynzajw.
Orochimaru is actually one of my favorite villains, right up there with Toguro Ani (the guy in my avatar), because he's got so much style (which is important for a villain) and such good presentation. He's an interesting villain, one he love to hate and like to see. He's also a 'pure' villain; he commits horrible, heinous atrocities and smiles about it, and no attempts are made (as far as I've seen) to show us his troubled past in an effort to get us to sympathize with him, like they do with Lucy in Elfin Lied.

Allow me to reacquaint you with... THE GROUND!
i mean it's not new to see some villains do something extreme like that, but they're always portrayed as manacle in some way. but Johan seemed like a normal charming person, like someone you could possibly get along with.... before he would kill you for knowing him though.
