History Main / CuteLittleFangs

This trope is also TruthInTelevision. [[CuteKitten Many baby animals, whether]] [[PreciousPuppies of the carnivorous persuasion]] or the simian persuasion, sport them. In some cases, the eye teeth can be naturally pushed forward, hence giving one a semi-fanged appearance. Some domestic cats in particular, even as adults, have a tendency to have longer than normal fangs that gives them this look. In Japan, this is called ''yaeba'' (literally, "double teeth") and is regarded as cute. Many girls actually undergo a surgical procedure to achieve this effect.

** Jubilee gets them after being turned into a vampire. This turns her into a CuteMonsterGirl, especialy when Sana Takeda draws her.

* ''Fanfic/VoyagesOfTheWildSeaHorse'': [[SharkMan Miriam Ransdottir]], [[SnakePeople Lilith]] and [[TechnicallyLivingVampire Nabiki Tendo]] are all described as having fangs that glint cutely behind their lips when they're happy... and then turn into [[MoreTeethTheOsmondFamily nightmarish forests of razor-sharp enamel]] when they [[GameFace get mad]]...

* Averted by Ripfang, a vermin fom the ''{{Literature/Redwall}}'' series, who has a huge tooth protruding from his upper jaw. He ''really'' doesn't like people calling him "snaggletooth".

** Remilia's younger sister and fellow vampire, Flandre, is occasionally shown with these as well (mostly in fan-works). Of course, given Flandre's psychosis and prospensity for destruction on a massive scale, sometimes the fangs are distinctly neither little nor cute.

** A good deal of the first-evolution Pokémon, in fact. Some of them retain their fangs into their evolved forms, where they are less adorable, to say the least.

** In her most recent character update, Poppy, The Keeper of the Hammer has also seen updated splash art for each of her skins that shows a prominent cute little fang peaking out of the left side of her mouth. This change is visible on five of the seven skin options. Her character model in the game often opens her mouth wide as she speaks and smiles, showing of the cute little fang very regularly.
** [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter Gnar]] has two on his lower jaw when he's on his "Mini Gnar" form. His [[QuintessentialBritishGentleman Gentleman Gnar]] skin gives him one, but on his upper jaw. Mega Gnar, on the other hand, makes them look like snaggleteeth.

* In ''VisualNovel/CodeRealize'', [[Literature/FromTheEarthToTheMoon Impey]] has little fangs which go completely unremarked-upon within the story and seem to serve as a visual indication of his mischievous nature. BrattyHalfPint Delacroix II also has them. [[spoiler:Because they're both vampires.]]

** [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2007-09-14 Catalina Bobcat]]. Along with her name and first name, it makes her a quasi CatGirl. Revealed to be the result of [[spoiler:a magic mark given her by Pandora Chaos Raven]] without her knowledge.

* The art style of ''Webcomic/QueenOfWands'' has fangs as standard. On Angela they are pretty cute, though.

* ''WesternAnimation/XMenEvolution'' gives the very dangerous Mystique fangs, as well as her less dangerous son Nightcrawler. In Nightcrawler's case this is true to the comics. In Mystique's... well, [[VoluntaryShapeshifting she can have whatever appearance she pleases]].

* Dr. T'Ana from WesternAnimation/StarTrekLowerDecks, as a Caitian, has a full set of canines, with one of the bottom ones always sticking out when her mouth is closed.

* ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsJudgment'': One of the three main subpilots, [[FieryRedhead Festenia "Tenia" Muse]], always displays a small fang whenever she opens his mouth, fitting for her HotBlooded and passionate personality.

* The pups from ''WesternAnimation/PawPatrol''.

Most often, as suggested by the trope name, the character sports enlarged canine teeth. For maximum cuteness, at least one fang will be visible at all times, even when the character's mouth is closed, and especially if they have a CatSmile. These indicate, generally, that the character is mischievous, slightly hostile, or a trickster, but not actually "bad."

* ATTACKOnMIKA: Ichi's best friend Hajime.

** At least according to the anime, Pikachu have fangs. This is unusual because they're based on rodents and seem herbivorous.

** [[TheImp Midna]] from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess'' possesses a set of tiny fangs, one of which shows through her lips when her mouth is closed.

* Mica develops these in ''Webcomic/TheGreenhouse'' as a [[MarkOfTheSupernatural result]] of her DemonicPossession. They're not very prominent, but become important when [[spoiler:Mica [[LaserGuidedAmnesia forgets]] Red and her fangs are the only physical proof she has that she's not completely losing her mind]].

* In ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'', when Mei is partially transformed her canines get slightly pointier.

* ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'':

* The ([[CuteMonsterGirl quite attractive]]) [[AllTrollsAreDifferent troll-girls]] in the ''ComicBook/{{XXXenophile}}'' story "A Beautiful Tale". Actually, in some panels, they appear to have full-on ''shark teeth''... but the artist somehow makes it work.

* Linhua from ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'' has one on the left side of her mouth.
