Line 327:
: 小生 Another archaic, self-deprecating form of "I" used by males with equals and subordinates. Nowadays it's rare but still used sometimes in letters and such.
* Kuroda Kanbe from ''[[Sengoku Basara]]'', who is in no way as humble as this pronoun implies.
* Devola and Popola from ''[[Nie RNieR]]'', despite being female.
* Tokitsu Junya, the "Detective of the North" in ''[[Detective Conan]]''. It's hinted lightly that he uses this as a way to make himself look humbler than he truly is. {{spoiler|And it's kind of a plot point, actually. See the character sheet to learn the reason why.}}
* Emilia Kishitani from ''[[Durarara!!]]'', a foreigner who speaks in broken Japanese and for some reason chooses ''this'' as her main pronoun.
Line 411:
* Hakumen in ''[[BlazBlue]]''.
* Lordgenome from ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'', post-[[Time Skip]]. Especially noticeable in ep. 22, when he's trying to remember what the {{spoiler|Moon}} is.
* Grimoire Weiss from ''[[Nie RNieR]]'', who is a talking book, but very arrogant and dignified.
* Archtype-Earth, AKA our heroine [[Tsukihime|Arcueid]] before Shiki unintentionally turned her into an airhead, uses this. It is unknown if she goes back to using this after the events of Tsukihime because it is unknown if she reverts back to her old colder personality.
* [[The Dragon|Dynamis]] in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]''. It generally seems to be common among the members of Cosmo Entelecheia.
