    So I actually would like to recommend Worm again (because there's parts where the narrative is affected by the mental state of the MC, and insanity in its many forms plays a big role in many of the arcs) BUT I can see that it's not for every mood.

    Thus, I try to find some other novels to recommend... Maybe...

    Running Away From The Hero! -- Unless you say justified paranoia is not a form of (positive) insanity.
    Tilea’s Worries -- She's got severe reverse chuniibyo, and somehow manages to delude herself that the world is as she thinks it is..

    Is Unsong a anime, manga, or novel since I can't seem to find it?

    Thanks for the recommendations although I don't think it fits (;。-̀﹏-́。) The MC of Perfect World does have an interesting personality. ^_^

    Aye, I always remember it by that first book though. The Blazing Stars doesn't stick as well for some reason..

    The MC of the rrl novel Friendly Neighborhood Necromancer has a weird personality, but I don't think it quite fits what you want.
    Unsong is an english webnovel. It definitely has what you seek.

    Since you didn't specify from what material the characters should be...

    Dr. Hannibal Lecter. All versions of him be it novels, films or TV shows. I'll leave you a quote of his from the TV show.
    If you wish to read the novel, start with The Red Dragon.

    Seconding Akasha from Taint. She spent too much time in the dungeon and forgot how normal people live.

    Adding:
    Schera from The Girl Who Ate a Death God: no matter where she is, she's always thinking about food. But there's sort of a war going on.
    Most characters from Legend of the Sun Knight: lots of weirdness here.
    Most characters from The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich: this series has so many weird characters, you won't even believe some of the ones the author comes up with.
    Headless Villainess: headless girl who picks on her head.
    Shiro from Kumo Desu Ka, Nani Ka?: because um... spider.
