Huh– wha? Describe Slacker here? But it's like, early…late… in the morning… evening… something like that, anyways, why don't one of you do the job of describing for me so I can get back to training my Pokemon? A character, almost Always Male (at least in older works) somewhere between age 14-40, whose single Goal in Life is to get through existence with as little effort as possible. May be Book Dumb or Brilliant, but Lazy but either way, they'll take crap jobs rather than aspire to anything greater. Even there, they are often the Weasel Co-Worker. Are usually filthy pigs at home, and sometimes with regard to their personal hygiene as well. May also ingest copious amounts of marijuana, but this is not a necessity. Often part of an Odd Couple with a driven, ambitious Neat Freak. May have a job as an Apathetic Clerk. There are a few things they might put effort into: appearing cool to peers, lining up relaxing social activities involving alcohol, and trying to have sex. If they are the The Stoner subtype, they will be motivated to score weed. Another thing to note is that most slacker stories tend to have a strong point of view: either the slacker is a lovable goof who's better than the Type A personalities around them, or he's an irresponsible Jerkass who needs to shape up. Slacker girls are rare in fiction (and are often presented as essentially an oxymoron); generally the Slacker's girlfriend (or would-be girlfriend) will be much more focused and getting on with her life. She might break up with him if she is able to see that he is going nowhere fast. However, this gender split seems to be weakening as of The New '10s with films like Bad Teacher and Young Adult showing female slacker leads. See also Dismotivation, NEET or The Stoner. Compare Lazy Bum. Contrast Professional Slacker, who is lazy at work and Ambitious, but Lazy, which involves characters who are ambitious despite their slothfulness. Foil of the Consummate Professional. |

Dragon Quest VII has Hondara, The Hero's lazy Type-B uncle. He's a complete leech who constantly takes advantage of his brother/the hero's father's kindness, a hopeless lech, and a would-be Con Man. The hero's mother absolutely hates him and fears her son turning out the same way. The weird part? He manages to get his hands on several plot-important items. The Holy Water is real (and his neighbors are stunned to hear it), and the Hot Stone is a key item. | |

Himouto! Umaru-chan: The main character is one of the prominent female examples of this—she's a physically literal chibi who lazes around at home, naps, plays games, surfs the Internet, eats junk food, and downs Coke all day—and would do them all at the same time if she could. Noted subversion too in that she's only like this at home; at school, she has a regular-sized alter ego who's amazingly beautiful, smart, with perfect grades, and yet is somehow still totally humble — in short, to quote Mary Poppins, "practically perfect in every way". | |

Ron exhibits some of these traits in the Harry Potter series. It's implied that, having five older brothers who are all brilliant in their chosen field (and his best friends are an overachieving genius and Harry freakin' Potter), Ron feels like he may as well not even try to compete. Karkus, Gurg of the last giant colony in the world, from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix spends all day lying by the lake while the other giants get food for him and his wife. |

Homura Hinooka from the light novel series Fire Girl, like Seychelles above her, is an unusual mix of this and Plucky Girl. While she's not one to back down when a goal or objective is right in front of her, she's also content with just lounging around and exerting as little effort as possible in the things she does. It's for this reason that she's both a Determinator as a Magician in the Exploration Club and a girl who finds it difficult to get up early in the morning. | |

Unusually, Married... with Children contrasts The Slacker with the Lazy Bum. Al Bundy has a 9 to 5 mall job, but he's a bad worker; he insults customers and makes little effort on the clock. But next to his wife Peggy, who chooses not to work at all (even blithely neglecting their kids), he's a picture of diligence. | |

Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town: Jacopo seems to be only interested in lazing around. He only has his current job because his father, the mayor of the town, forced someone's hand in hope that having a job would change Jacopo's attitude. One event has Jacopo's employer vent about his lack of work ethic to the Player Character. Jacopo responds to overhearing that conversation by suggesting that he might be more motivated if he had a beautiful wife, hence his employer should find one for him if he wants him to work harder. | |

Muriel from The Suite Life of Zack & Cody. She's close to retirement but on several occasions, she's neglected her duties. She once came into the Martins' suite and stayed there, eating all the food out of their refrigerator. She also walked in on a date between London and a boy, stayed there, and when London asked "Aren't you supposed to be working?" responded with "What's your point?" | |

Leo on Intimate is seen working exactly once, as a waiter. He only serves his friends and then sits down with them, complains about his boss within earshot, when confronted promises to do a better job only to immediately take a smoking break, and then just abandons the job when the others leave without paying and the opportunity to have sex arises. Otherwise he just seems to bum around; his room consists of practically nothing but a mattress and a clothes rack and he's shown to be short on cash, suggesting he's just barely getting by. | |

Sans of Undertale is notorious for his laziness—the two things he seems to put much effort into are pranks and trying to be a good sibling to his brother Papyrus. That, and kicking your ass on a No Mercy run and dealing out (questionably official) judgement near the end of every route. For instance, when building a snowman of himself, he simply heaps some snow together, writes "Sans" on it, and calls it a day. At another point, he totally blows off guard duty—his supposed official job—to sell hot dogs, from out of the guard booth he's supposed to be keeping watch from. As an understandably impressed Papyrus points out, Sans is somehow managing to not do his job by doing another job altogether. | |

Dave Lister in Red Dwarf, although later seasons do see him develop. The Cat doesn't care about much other than eating and how good he looks early on. At one point, when told by the insubstantial Rimmer that Lister is in trouble, the Cat refuses to help until he finishes his meal (and he doesn't exactly speed up his eating either). Like Lister though, he too begins to contribute, though he is still remarkably narcissistic. |

Deconstructed in Ramen Fighter Miki: Miki Onimaru is a Womanchild who only took the job of Kanban Musume (Poster Girl) of her mother's Ramen restaurant because she could slack all she wants there, lying to herself that her job is exciting (she's practically a Burger Fool). When she has her day off, she doesn’t know what to do… because she never delivers the ramen on time, has little money, no tv nor videogames. The Rival, Megumi, another Kanban Musume that takes her job seriously, has money and better things in her house. | |

Henchgirl: A female example. Mary Posa repeatedly draws the ire of her fellow gang members for her laziness and having a pesky conscience. She'd rather eat junk food, watch movies with her friends, and pursue the rookie superhero she frequently runs into. An injection of Psycho Serum cures her of that bad habit, but even after she is captured and reforms, she'd rather be a security guard (and a lazy one at that) than a hero. | |

Neptune and Plutia in Hyperdimension Neptunia V are this seeing as they prefer to just slack off and sleep. The problem is that they're the CPU goddesses (equivalent to president) of Planeptune. Modern Gamindustri Vert is nearly as bad, as while she's motivated, it's entirely towards her MMO games and yaoi collection, and she uses such breathtaking Insane Troll Logic to justify her habits even Neptune thinks she's overdoing it. Neptune's such a bad case that when she falls into an Alternate Universe early on and wonders aloud where her alternate self is, Noire calmly posits that since this Neptune wasn't immortal, she probably died of starvation and self-neglect. Hilariously, it turns out that this dimension's Neptune is actually a Dimensional Traveler who gets into crazy adventures. Interestingly, Neptune is a special case; it's revealed in Megadimension Neptunia VII and Re;Birth2 that she's actually a very competent CPU. It's just that she sees no point in doing it if more capable people like Nepgear and Histoire are there to do it for her, making her Brilliant, but Lazy. |

Grif from Red vs. Blue fits this pretty well. He snoozes through staff meetings and misses his duties to the point where Sarge stops assigning them to him because he knows they won't be done. Heck, the man himself admits he's lazy. At least one of the DVD profiles says that this is a plot on Grif's part to get himself discharged, but it wouldn't be a stretch to say he's normally like this. It's strongly implied that the reason he's such a slacker is because he had to take on a lot of responsibility like taking care of his sister after their parents abandoned them, joining the military due to his own awareness of his inability to function without structure and routine...only to find himself subjected to selfishly cruel people who didn't hesitate to take advantage of him, causing him to slowly care less and less until he became who he is today. | |

Kim Possible: Shego is the most cunning and down to earth Super Villain in the series, but she's stuck being The Dragon for Dr. Drakken. She spends much of her time hanging around Drakken's lair reading villain magazines or filing her nails. Ron Stoppable is also this. Unlike his A-type partner and best friend Kim, he is content in kicking back, lazing around, and relaxing. While Shego and Kim are usually compared because they are both strong and intelligent women, Ron and Shego aren't that different in that both enjoy relaxing and prefer to follow their more driven partners. |

Daria: Daria and her friend Jane are the Brilliant, but Lazy versions. While studies come easy to Daria, and Jane is passionate about her art, they prefer to spend their afternoons watching Sick Sad World than achieve things that are expected of them. For Daria though, it's not so much that she's lazy, rather she simply doesn't care about a lot of things that most people do, and that there simply isn't much in Lawndale to challenge her in the areas she cares about. Trent, Jane's brother, is a more straight example of the troue, although he is very serious about his music. |

Like Jaye, George Lass of Dead Like Me (also created by Wonderfalls creator Bryan Fuller) is this at the beginning of the series. She puts it best when she says, "I excel at not giving a shit." She develops enough over the series to accept a promotion at her job and become a productive member of the team. Mason also embodies this trope, preferring to steal from his reaps to get by, rather than holding down a job as the other reapers do (or are implied to have done). |

Hetalia: Axis Powers: Latvia doesn't work hard unless he's ordered (and threatened), normally by Russia. The funny thing is that when he does actually try, he's amazing at things: For example, he (as an agricultural nation) managed to build an entire working railroad alone, at Russia's behest. Notably, according to one of his character profiles he might be Obfuscating Stupidity. Seychelles is a rare female example, made even odder given how energetic she is. But at the same time, she's portrayed as being very carefree, putting off cleaning (even when it's covered in ants), and somehow falling asleep in the middle of her own Image Song. |

Yukari Yakumo surpasses even Komachi, literally sleeping all day and even through the entirety of winter (her shikigami Ran explicitly refers to it as "hibernation"). Then again, she is reality-warping Physical Goddess, so the few times she's actually awake, she gets shit done...or screws it up even worse; Yukari is an infamous Troll. |

100 Bullets: Wylie. He's lazy, has no ambition or passion in life, and hates his job. His favorite pastime is to drink and pass out. When Sheppard visits him and says: "don't work too hard", he replies, "Don't worry it's against my religion". | |

In Bloom Into You, President Kuze tended to delegate most of the work to Touko and the other members of the student council, and the reason why he recommended Doujima to the Student Council was that Doujima was the sort who would be willing to take the work. Surprisingly enough, Touko's sister Mio, who'd been seen as The Ace, actually turns out to be this, as according to Ichigaya, she only took on the duties that were fun (e.g. delivering speeches) and even asked her fellow members to do her summer homework for her. Ichigaya doesn't hold it against her, though, and has come to accept that kind of leadership as normal for student council presidents. | |

Victor Tugelbend from Moving Pictures aspires to being a student wizard forever. However, he keeps himself in good shape, because it's too much bother dragging all the excess fat around. And he has to study quite hard to ensure that during finals he comes just short of passing, but doesn't completely wash out of school. He doesn't see the irony in his situation. He has some justification; as long as he's a student and does not drop below a certain grade threshold he has a guaranteed income from a bequest, and being a full wizard is a dangerous occupation at this point in the series. | |

The Wombles, out of Britain, gives us Orinoco. While his Womble peers are hard at work clearing Wimbledon Common of humans' trash, he's usually looking for an out-of-the-way spot to catch another forty winks. Due to his love of sleep and Big Eater tendencies, he's also the fattest Womble (although he'd claim he's just "cuddly"). Elisabeth Beresford, the creator of the Wombles, reportedly based Orinoco on her then-teenage son. | |

In Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Zenitsu's case it is more of a combination of his bad self-esteem and fear of getting hurt in any way possible, so he hates any kind of training that will force him to put more effort than he personally would like give, with that Zenitsu must really be coerced in a way that will make him go through it even if complaining along the way, two popular methods are he himself feeding on his dreams that getting stronger will make Nezuko fall for him, and the other is filling him with praise, Tanjiro honestly believes in Zenitsu so that usually works, but also Shinobu pretended to cheer Zenitsu up to get him going. The tragedy with his master's death made Zenitsu be serious about his training and future without others forcing him however. | |

Kaoru in Ensemble Stars! claims to be entirely uninterested in anything except dating girls (and, occasionally, surfing) — he skips class often, sometimes doesn't even show up to his own unit's performances, and only joined the Marine Bio Club because the president never actually asks him to do anything (in fact, he only shows up once a month). However, he cares more than he lets on — he admits easily that he doesn't want to bother with anything difficult because his family is so controlling, but it also has to do with his grieving over his mother's death. Over the course of the year, he comes to admit the true friendships he's made at school and that he actively wants to be a part of their lives and to work hard for his idol unit. | |

Rock from the Harvest Moon series. Fancies himself a ladies' man and quite the catch, despite having no job, no desire to get one, and no obvious skills other than being pretty. Karina of Rune Factory 3. Most of her voiced dialogue has to do with her being lazy, her Artificial Atmospheric Actions have her falling asleep standing up, and she once tried to keep a diary, but her only entry was "Dear Diary, I decided it would be too much trouble to keep you, so I won't." Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town: Jacopo seems to be only interested in lazing around. He only has his current job because his father, the mayor of the town, forced someone's hand in hope that having a job would change Jacopo's attitude. One event has Jacopo's employer vent about his lack of work ethic to the Player Character. Jacopo responds to overhearing that conversation by suggesting that he might be more motivated if he had a beautiful wife, hence his employer should find one for him if he wants him to work harder. |

Ryner Lute from The Legend of the Legendary Heroes is totally like this. He's perfectly comfortable with going to prison because he won't have to do anything there. In fact, he considers it preferable to being in the military academy. He mostly does stuff only when Ferris threatens to kill him. He even made slacking into a philosophy: it's the motivated people who start wars and the like, and the unmotivated people get to suffer as a result. | |

His Tranquilo attitude though is finally starting to get him into trouble. Ever since his loss to Okada at Wrestle Kingdom 12, he doesn't take ANYTHING seriously anymore. While he still sustained a solid singles' record and even beat Minoru Suzuki for the Intercontinental Title (ironically a championship he never wanted and outright ignores now), he has been placed in menial feuds and lost in the first round of the New Japan Cup. But most concerning was his feud with Chris Jericho. Despite being brutally assaulted, not once but TWICE, and Jericho's NJPW history showing that he will attack early and brutally every single appearance he's had, Naito continually treated him as a non-issue. Unsurprisingly it led to Jericho ambushing Naito during Dominion 2018, brutally assaulting him for the third time before the bell rung and leaving Naito in no condition to actually fight back, leading to his inevitable defeat. | |

Orange Cassidy of All Elite Wrestling. Billed as being from... wherever and weighing... whatever, his biggest moves are a series of devastating kicks (toe taps to his opponent's boots followed by a "superkick" to the shin) and an elbow drop from the top turnbuckle (literally a drop, because he just falls). The latter may have to do with the fact he spends a lot of time with his hands in his pockets. | |

Glenn in Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor. This isn't solely due to a personality flaw but also because of trauma from being a former Mage Killer and being unable to stop his partner being killed. He starts the series not wanting to work or go outside at all. He's forced to get a job and start paying most of his expenses by his guardian Celica (she still lets him live rent-free in her mansion). He initially doesn't put any effort into his new job as a magic teacher, though this changes later on. | |

Tetsuya Naito after his return in New Japan Pro-Wrestling in 2015 after an excursion in Mexico his new gimmick became being lazy and doing as little as possible to win. Hiroshi Tanahashi admitted he was totally thrown off by this "stalling strategy". Naito's slacker gimmick is actually a brilliant example of NJPW making lemonade out of a serious lemon: Naito was pushed to the top of the card as for a feud with Kazuchika Okada. The problem was that the fans weren't buying what he was selling, and in a rare moment of fan response changing the trajectory of a company, there was a vote over which match should main event Wrestle Kingdom: the heavyweight title match between Okada and Naito…or the Intercontinental Championship between Hiroshi Tanahashi and Shinsuke Nakamura. The fans voted for the latter. Thus, Naito's entire slacking gimmick is rooted in this supposed "betrayal": the fans didn't give a damn about him, so why should he care about anything? And ironically, by not giving a crap about anything anymore, the fans took to him completely. After the response he got during and after winning the IWGP Heavyweight Championship belt at Invasion Attack 2016...The fans aren't going to be voting him out of Main Events any time soon. His Tranquilo attitude though is finally starting to get him into trouble. Ever since his loss to Okada at Wrestle Kingdom 12, he doesn't take ANYTHING seriously anymore. While he still sustained a solid singles' record and even beat Minoru Suzuki for the Intercontinental Title (ironically a championship he never wanted and outright ignores now), he has been placed in menial feuds and lost in the first round of the New Japan Cup. But most concerning was his feud with Chris Jericho. Despite being brutally assaulted, not once but TWICE, and Jericho's NJPW history showing that he will attack early and brutally every single appearance he's had, Naito continually treated him as a non-issue. Unsurprisingly it led to Jericho ambushing Naito during Dominion 2018, brutally assaulting him for the third time before the bell rung and leaving Naito in no condition to actually fight back, leading to his inevitable defeat. |

Gravity Falls has a rare female example in Wendy, the teenage employee at the Mystery Shack. When Dipper asks her to make an entry on the subject "how to relax" in Gravity Falls: Dipper and Mabel's Guide to Mystery and Nonstop Fun! she just surmises that putting a lot of work into writing about slacking off sounds like it'd be anathema to the subject, so she's just going to accept Stan's bribe to let him have the next few pages and take the rest of the day off instead. | |
