Ive recently read Mousou Shoujo Otakukei and found that I quite like female characters who have eccentric personalities, without coming across as an absolute moron. In this instance, I loved the fact that the main female character was a complete yaoi nutter who was oblivious to the world around her. She kept imagining herself as a yaoi character putting herself in completely hilarious situations. which made me crack up with laughter, and that dosent happen often nowadays.
Id really appreciate any suggestions that people can think of that contain a eccentric female character. My definition of such a an 'eccentric' is some one who views the world differently to most people and dosent react to normal situations with how you would expect them to. Comedy in the story would be a major plus.
Suprisingly though, Im finding that I cant seem to find many manga with a female character such as this. Hope someone can help with this and thanks.

Fujoshi Kanojo if you're craving for more delusional yaoi fangirls.
also definitely The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (anime or novel only) and maybe Yankee-kun to Megane-chan.

Cat Street defines eccentric.
Paradise Kiss would probably work too.
Maki from Fruits Basket fits, but you'd have to go through at least 14 volumes before you got to her character.

From a bumper sticker I like:
"If you're gonna ride my ass, at least pull my hair."

Yes, I can not avoid to second Haruhi.
Also:
Yotsubato!
Watashitachi no Tamura-kun Komaki.
Genshiken some girls have a peculiar personality.
GTO Urumi, not properly a main char though.
Nazo no Kanojo X
These are disputable, since it could be just my way to perceive them:
Toradora! seconded
Rozen Maiden basically everyone there
Spice and Wolf Horo
Karin Anju
Eureka Seven Anemone.
Spiral Hiyono, I absolutely love her.
These could not fit, since it's not related to the character only, but to her "species", but I'll try anyway:
Seikai Trilogy since she's an Abh (alien) and she reasons as all the Abh.
Chobits she's not human, so...
DearS same as above.
Mamotte Shugogetten she's a kind of genie.
Yuria 100 Shiki heavy ecchi
Not waht you asked but I still think you can check:
Koe de Oshigoto!
I tried to limit these who could fall in the "tsundere" category, but I probably put some of them in here. Hope to be of any help anyway.

Oresama Teacher - funniest shojo manga I've ever read, and the main heroine is pretty odd
Shounenshoujo Romance - both the female and male protagonists are weird, funny, too

The heroine from Akuma to Love Song certainly stands out... and her "lovely transformation" is quite funny!
I second Yankee-kun to Megane-chan, it is hilarious!
Ah, and don't forget Nodame from Nodame Cantabile, she's definitely eccentric!
