History Main / HeartLight

* Franchise/SailorMoon's final form consists of her having wings and a Glowing lotus symbol on her chest.

* In ''Film/RaOne'', both (video-game escapee) villain and hero have these. For additional points, the villain's (red-glowing light) is in the center of his chest, while the hero's blue light is off-center, on the left.

* The symbol on WesternAnimation/{{Captain Planet|AndThePlanteers}}'s chest.

As dictated by the RuleOfCool, aliens, robots and magical creatures in fiction have a tendancy to give off light [[BioluminescenceIsCool from various places on their bodies]], including [[GlowingEyes eyes]], [[ThroatLight mouths]], [[VolcanicVeins veins]], and [[TronLines markings]]. This trope is about creatures who have a single light source on their chest, which is usually either centred straight in the middle (as is the case with most robotic examples) or off to one side if it represents their actual heart. If the HeartLight shoots some sort of beam, it's a ChestBlaster.
