Line 76:
** Nico Robin. Even when she is just as freaked out as the rest of her crew mates are, normal based expressions are on her face. Even Eichiro Oda states that she is the only one with normal expressions.
** Zoro as well, though he tends to have more outbursts than Robin.
** Admiral Kizaru is this, in stark contrast to his colleage Sakazuki, who is notorious for his uncontrollable temper. No matter what happens or how dangerous a situation may be, heKizaru ''never'' gets angry or loses his composure, ''ever''. Rather ironic, seeing as his Devil Fruit is one that lets him control and manipulate light.
** Notorious swordsman Dracule Mihawk is always dead serious about everything. He almost never smiles and has been shown laughing a grand total of - twice.
* Rasen of ''[[Flame of Recca]]'' is an extreme case. Ridiculously pale complexion, an expression as vacant and empty as that of a corpse, and literally incapable of speech, so much that he requires telepathy to communicate with others when his deathly stare is insufficient.
* Jo from ''[[Burst Angel]]''. When she's fighting, she's the biggest badass in the world. When not, she's usually quiet and inexpressive.
Line 275 ⟶ 276:
{{quote|'''Ziva:''' We have a situation at the safehouse.
'''Gibbs:''' Well, yeah, Ziva. What is it?
'''Ziva:''' Just a second. ''([The hitmen break in through two different doors, and Ziva [[Guns Akimbo|shoots them both dead]] before they can react.)]''
'''Gibbs:''' Ziva? Ziva! Ziva, talk to me!
'''Ziva:''' Under control. ''([hangs up)]'' }}
** Gibbs' only reaction is to smile slightly before he hangs up as well.
* Douglas Henshall's performance as Nick Cutter in ''[[Primeval]]'' is much more restrained in the second and third series than the first. The altercations to the timeline and revelation of {{spoiler|Stephen and Helen's affair}} could make him qualify in the [[Shell-Shocked Veteran]] category.
Line 447 ⟶ 448:
* George Washington. If he ever smiled in his entire life it has never been proven.
* The Duke of Wellington. [[No True Scotsman|But then]] [[Stiff Upper Lip|he was British.]]
