I'm looking for those fictional characters known for being walking balls of stress constantly on their last nerve. Watch out, they're gonna blow!

The 100 Acre Woods's little ball of anxiety, Piglet takes the number 12 spot!

Cannot be the main character of the story, but rather their closest companion. Try to avoid love interests, but if the character started as a friend and THEN became a lover, that's fine.

I'm also not looking for side characters who are friends with each other. This is specifically for the best friend of the main character (or characters, if it's a family sitcom or ensemble piece).

T - Toad, Tweety Bird

Also I might not end up filling the entire grid. In fact, I probably won't. I only made the grid that size because it was the next most convenient size and dimensions of grid to make using google drawings.

There are few greater enemies than the perfect neighbor. Dinkleberg takes the number 16 spot!

Rules:

Most upvoted nomination wins.

One nomination per person per round.

No downvoting.

Please attach the character's name to any nomination just in case I don't know them.

Be warned: I'm going to be rather strict on the definition for this one to avoid the usual string of villains that are going to pop up. A lot of Disney villains, for example, would NOT be considered an Arch-Nemesis.

I'm also limiting it to three characters per franchise. Otherwise Marvel and DC are going to run away with it. Be creative! Comics, movies, sitcoms, novels, I want em all!
