* In ''Webcomic/AllNightLaundry,'' Bina's blush is [[UpToEleven clearly visible even when her face is covered in mud]].
* ''Webcomic/CharbyTheVampirate'': When Victor's grandmother tells a surprised Charby that he flirted with her when she was a young woman and was the one to inform inform her that she was pregnant with Victor's father he grows a bright blush across his cheeks and nose.
* Happens periodically to Lydia in ''Webcomic/CobwebAndStripes'', courtesy of Betelgeuse. It's particularly noticeable because she's so pale otherwise.
* In ''Webcomic/CuantaVida'', BLU Scout has one [[http://tf2.skyscrapersoup.com/?p=253 here]].
* Penny from ''Webcomic/{{Enjuhneer}}'' has been doing a bit of this of late.
* In ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' Gil flushes a deep red color when [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20110427 he and Tarvek overhear Agatha talking about her trouble trusting him since he seems to constantly play the fool around her.]] He's not doing it on purpose, he just seems to have trouble keeping it together around her due to his crush.
%%* Abbey after her first kiss in ''Webcomic/{{Gnoph}}''. It's particularly visible since she's albino.
* ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'' is true to its Anime roots. [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2008-06-25 Nanase]], [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2011-01-12 Lavender]], [[http://egscomics.com/?date=2011-11-04 Rhoda]]...
** A rare thing indeed is the ''male'' luminescent blush, [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2002-07-07 as displayed here]] by Tedd and [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2003-05-21 here]] by Tony. Maybe he's just ''that'' girly?
** The recently-introduced (in 2014/2015) Ashley has this as a ''major'' schtick, which is also coupled with CrushBlush since Elliot is the one typically causing them.
* This is pretty common in ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'', seen on [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=74 Gamma]], [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=87 Kat]], [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=112 Kat]], [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=158 Mort]], [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=255 Kat again]], and [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=387 Parley]].
** Parley also performed "bright full-face blush" when she accidentally [[spoiler:teleported herself, Smitty and three witnesses into her bed]].
** Heck, even Robot (a ''robot'') [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=1611 has a small blush]] when Shadow cuddles his new OrganicTechnology arm.
* An interesting variation in ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}''; due to the [[AllTrollsAreDifferent trolls']] differently colored AlienBlood, most trolls' Luminescent Blushes are colors other than red/pink. In [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004633 this strip]], for example, the {{Blue Blood}}ed Vriska can be seen with blue patches under her eyes.
* Seen at least several times in ''Webcomic/{{Housepets}}'', even through the fur covering their faces. Peanut once ended up with his entire face red.
* Go to the ''Webcomic/KhaosKomix'' archives and click on a page at random. Odds are at least one character will be doing this.
* ''Webcomic/TheLittleTrashmaid'': Spencer’s and Ricky’s faces are entirely red after their AccidentalKiss.
* Ash and Emily display them every so often on ''Webcomic/{{Misfile}}''.
* Any, from ''[[Webcomic/M9Girls M9 Girls!]]'' blushes a lot around the Professor.
* ''Weaponized'' in the ''Webcomic/NatureOfNaturesArt'' arc ''Syconium''. Not only does Fig have to strain to get [[http://www.nofna.com/?T=1-1-58-145 a single blush hatch out]], the receiving character ends up ''plucking it out of his eyelid''.
* ''{{Webcomic/Niels}}'' has this happen more than once, notably to 300 when he's either [[http://nielsg.com/why-why-oh-right aroused]] or [[http://nielsg.com/very-professional thoroughly embarrassed]] with the latter obviously played for comedic effect. Other characters experience this to indicate arousal, and it seems to be a convenient shorthand for sexual attraction because unless the strip demands full-body anatomy, typically for [[RuleOfCool dynamic action]], [[RuleOfFunny comedic value]], or [[RuleOfSexy sexy times]], the characters are drawn in above-the-belt shots or full-bodied [[SuperDeformed chibis]].
* In ''Webcomic/NipAndTuck'', [[http://www.rhjunior.com/NT/00309.html it's bright enough to be seen when he starts out red]].
* In ''Webcomic/TheNoordegraafFiles'' THEO, (who is male) has this when he's walked in on by a girl while he's shirtless. He hastily covers his chest with a blanket, even though, you know, he's male. [[InnocentFanservicegirl Akila]] also gets this whenever questioned about if her feelings for Katrina are platonic, or something more... [[LesYay intimate.]] (It's heavily implied she's attracted to Kat, but if they are in a relationship is currently unknown.)
* In ''Webcomic/QuestionableContent'':
** Hannelore and Marigold sometimes react like this when flustered.
** Many [=AnthroPC=] chassis designs can blush, even without blood vessels. Winslow [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3632 says]] that it's ostensibly to help humans empathize with them, but might just be for the [[CuteMachines cuteness factor]].
* In ''Webcomic/RustyAndCo'', [[http://rustyandco.com/comic/level-6-8/ Madeline, when she mentions Derek the Cleric.]]
* A rare male version with [[{{Tsundere}} Yuudai]] from ''Webcomic/{{Sakana}}'', he has one after [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace Taisei]] [[HoYay invades his comfort zone]] [[http://sakana.smackjeeves.com/comics/1205262/106/ here]] and [[http://mynameismad.deviantart.com/art/SAKANA-134-279277820?offset=0#comments here]], and, perhaps a more visible one due to it being coloured, [[http://mynameismad.deviantart.com/art/tumblbumbls-2-251972475?q here]].
* Common in ''Webcomic/SandraAndWoo''.
* ''Webcomic/SandraOnTheRocks'' gives Zoe a spectacular blush [[http://www.sandraontherocks.com/strips-sotr/certain_headstrong_model here.]] As she is far from sweetly naive, this is clearly a sign that Domenico's teasing, and the reminder of her past, have affected her fairly strongly.
* ''Webcomic/SequentialArt'', every time [[http://www.collectedcurios.com/sequentialart.php?s=404 Art and Kat]] are [[http://www.collectedcurios.com/sequentialart.php?s=748 trying]] to ignore the [[EveryoneCanSeeIt obvious mutual attraction]].
* Frequently seen in ''Webcomic/SlightlyDamned''. Most often on Kieri.
* Suzanne from ''Webcomic/SurprisingOcteal'' says she isn't really interested in boys. Her cheeks tell a different story.
* Very common with Julia in ''Webcomic/ThinkBeforeYouThink''.
* ''Webcomic/TowerOfGod:'' Yeon, when Viole put his fingers in her mouth... to free her from the control of a ParasitePuppeteer, of course.
* Luminescent Blushes are quite common and prominent in ''Webcomic/TwoKinds''. Each character has had at least once in his or her life.
* In ''Webcomic/TheWhiteboard'', Sandy shows one of these when the usual crowd is cheering Swampy's having slept with her the night before. Doc comments that it's so intense it's into the infrared.
* In ''WebComic/YokokasQuest'', Yokoka, Mao, and Azha feature this at times.

* ''WesternAnimation/OneHundredAndOneDalmatiansTheSeries'': In "Beauty Pageant Pandemonium", an irate Ivy's face turns red when her chances at winning the contest (due to her aunt Cruella's not-so-full-proof plan) turn bust.
* ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'':
** A flashback shows a young Mai turning aside during a Luminescent Blush for a second when a young Zuko walks by-- an impressive show of emotion considering what she's [[EmotionlessGirl usually like.]]
** As the DVDCommentary points out, there is a rather odd-looking scene when Suki is seen with this despite wearing rather thick facial makeup. (Sokka pulls off this same feat.)
** In addition, in the season 3 episode "Sokka's Master", Toph tells Sokka that Aang and Katara missed him, but she didn't mind so much. She turns away to say this and blushes, to the camera's sight.
** Aang does this pretty much any time Katara is touching him, or gets into a formal dress, or puts on her swimwear... (he's ''biologically'' 12 and she's 14, so it's pretty innocent).
** Zuko also does this when Toph glomps him in the finale, complete with speechlessness and his eye getting all wide. [[http://piandao.org/screenshots/fire/fire18/fire18-698.jpg It's rather adorable.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' used this on Finn several times, [[BodyguardCrush most notably when he's around Princess Bubblegum]].
* Happens to Cooper in the ''WesternAnimation/Ben10UltimateAlien'' episode "Absolute Power Part II" after Gwen kisses him for reversing Kevin's transformation.
* In two episodes of ''WesternAnimation/ChalkZone'', this happens to Rudy twice. Once in "My Big Fat Chalk Wedding" after Snap rescues Rudy from getting married to a chalk drawing of Bobbie Sue (a little girl with a crush on him in the real world) by pretending [[SpeakNowOrForeverHoldYourPeace he was going to marry him]], and then again in "The Crush" when the girl he develops a crush on, Trina, pretends to like him back to humor him.
* About every character of ''WesternAnimation/CodeLyoko'' sports a Luminescent Blush at one time or another.
** Though the funky-looking exhaustion blushes of Aelita and Yumi in "I'd Rather Not Talk About It" [[http://img.codelyoko.fr/galeries/74_je_prefere_ne_pas_en_parler/Je_prefere_ne_pas_en_parler_013.jpg take the cake]]. They look more like bruises than blushes.
* Every time a character blushes in ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'', their cheeks are a ridiculous shade of red.
* Dialed UpToEleven on ''WesternAnimation/{{Daria}}'' when Daria had a full-body rash that necessitated a hospital visit. Turns out the "rash" was a stress reaction to her being around Trent.
* This happens frequently to the title character of ''WesternAnimation/{{Doug}}'' when he's around his crush, Patti. Happens to Skeeter as well.
* A bad habit of Korra in ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'' when she's [[CrushBlush attracted to someone]]. In season one, this usually involves [[TallDarkAndHandsome Mako]], while in season four, it's perhaps the most blatant sign of her crush on [[spoiler:Asami.]]
* Jenny, the titular robot from ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot'', blushes bright blue.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'':
** In the episode "Linc or Swim", Lisa uses a formula that eliminates [[PuttingThePeeInPool urine in the pool]]; when ''all'' the water evaporates, the rest of Lincoln's sisters (minus Lily) blush in embarrassment.
** In "Study Muffin", all of Lincoln's sisters (minus Lily, presumably since she's a baby) do this when they see Hugh. Hugh himself does this when Lisa lifts up his shirt.
* The ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' short "Rabbit of Seville": happens to WesternAnimation/ElmerFudd when WesternAnimation/BugsBunny (in drag) snips away the support for his suspenders and he pulls them back up.
* In the ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', this is a common aspect of a character feeling embarrassed. Flattery or sheepishness gives us a BlushSticker instead.

** Connie has a few in "An Indirect Kiss", and with the last one at the end of the episode, her eyesight is magically healed by Steven's magical saliva from the juice box.
** Near the end of [[Recap/StevenUniverseS3E4BarnMates "Barn Mates"]], the resident {{Tsundere}} Lapis Lazuli does this when Peridot smiles and giggles at her.
** In [[Recap/StevenUniverseS5E28ChangeYourMind "Change Your Mind"]], [[spoiler:[[BigBad White Diamond]] blushes ''pink'' after Steven points out she's acting like a child after her temper tantrum.

The blush is implied to be ''literally'' luminescent, too: the entire previously white room turned pink as well.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'': Used on Raven quite a few times. Starfire does this a lot, but hers is ''literally'' luminescent on account of her alien physiology.
** Also, happens to Robin and Starfire at the end of the episode "Go".
* This has happened to the turtles in ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987'' when April would kiss them, as well as a police officer in "The Great Boldini" when she did the same to him.
* Happens a lot in ''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends'' whenever an engine is embarrassed or tired.
* Happens all the damn time in ''WesternAnimation/TotallySpies'', to pretty much everybody.

Stimpy thought he was really going to get it once he did what George said, but instead he's pleased with him and rewards him with a cigar.
** In "Who's Stupid Now?", the director's (Anthony's dad from "A Visit to Anthony") face turns an intense red in a huff, breathing heavily and nostrils flaring while turning to the viewers, when Ren (whose role has now been reversed to Stimpy's, complete with the physical appearance in weight and shortage of intelligence) can't remember his exact lines.
* The ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' and ''[[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Merrie Melodies]]'' series used this trope continually:
** In "Stage Door Cartoon", after chasing Bugs Bunny on stage and while being in front of an audience, Elmer Fudd's pants fall down. Realizing this after turning around and noticing them, he pulls them back up and turns beet red. In the same short, his face turns various colors (red, green and purple) from stage fright, when he is put on the spot to act in a Shakespearean outfit.
** In "Long-Haired Hare", Giovanni Jones' face changes into various colors while singing a long, high note towards the end of the short.

[[/folder]]
* In ''Webcomic/AllNightLaundry,'' Bina's blush is [[UpToEleven clearly visible even when her face is covered in mud]].
* ''Webcomic/CharbyTheVampirate'': When Victor's grandmother tells a surprised Charby that he flirted with her when she was a young woman and was the one to inform inform her that she was pregnant with Victor's father he grows a bright blush across his cheeks and nose.
* Happens periodically to Lydia in ''Webcomic/CobwebAndStripes'', courtesy of Betelgeuse. It's particularly noticeable because she's so pale otherwise.
* In ''Webcomic/CuantaVida'', BLU Scout has one [[http://tf2.skyscrapersoup.com/?p=253 here]].
* Penny from ''Webcomic/{{Enjuhneer}}'' has been doing a bit of this of late.
* In ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' Gil flushes a deep red color when [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20110427 he and Tarvek overhear Agatha talking about her trouble trusting him since he seems to constantly play the fool around her.]] He's not doing it on purpose, he just seems to have trouble keeping it together around her due to his crush.
%%* Abbey after her first kiss in ''Webcomic/{{Gnoph}}''. It's particularly visible since she's albino.
* ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'' is true to its Anime roots. [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2008-06-25 Nanase]], [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2011-01-12 Lavender]], [[http://egscomics.com/?date=2011-11-04 Rhoda]]...
** A rare thing indeed is the ''male'' luminescent blush, [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2002-07-07 as displayed here]] by Tedd and [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2003-05-21 here]] by Tony. Maybe he's just ''that'' girly?
** The recently-introduced (in 2014/2015) Ashley has this as a ''major'' schtick, which is also coupled with CrushBlush since Elliot is the one typically causing them.
* This is pretty common in ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'', seen on [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=74 Gamma]], [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=87 Kat]], [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=112 Kat]], [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=158 Mort]], [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=255 Kat again]], and [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=387 Parley]].
** Parley also performed "bright full-face blush" when she accidentally [[spoiler:teleported herself, Smitty and three witnesses into her bed]].
** Heck, even Robot (a ''robot'') [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=1611 has a small blush]] when Shadow cuddles his new OrganicTechnology arm.
* An interesting variation in ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}''; due to the [[AllTrollsAreDifferent trolls']] differently colored AlienBlood, most trolls' Luminescent Blushes are colors other than red/pink. In [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004633 this strip]], for example, the {{Blue Blood}}ed Vriska can be seen with blue patches under her eyes.
* Seen at least several times in ''Webcomic/{{Housepets}}'', even through the fur covering their faces. Peanut once ended up with his entire face red.
* Go to the ''Webcomic/KhaosKomix'' archives and click on a page at random. Odds are at least one character will be doing this.
* ''Webcomic/TheLittleTrashmaid'': Spencer’s and Ricky’s faces are entirely red after their AccidentalKiss.
* Ash and Emily display them every so often on ''Webcomic/{{Misfile}}''.
* Any, from ''[[Webcomic/M9Girls M9 Girls!]]'' blushes a lot around the Professor.
* ''Weaponized'' in the ''Webcomic/NatureOfNaturesArt'' arc ''Syconium''. Not only does Fig have to strain to get [[http://www.nofna.com/?T=1-1-58-145 a single blush hatch out]], the receiving character ends up ''plucking it out of his eyelid''.
* ''{{Webcomic/Niels}}'' has this happen more than once, notably to 300 when he's either [[http://nielsg.com/why-why-oh-right aroused]] or [[http://nielsg.com/very-professional thoroughly embarrassed]] with the latter obviously played for comedic effect. Other characters experience this to indicate arousal, and it seems to be a convenient shorthand for sexual attraction because unless the strip demands full-body anatomy, typically for [[RuleOfCool dynamic action]], [[RuleOfFunny comedic value]], or [[RuleOfSexy sexy times]], the characters are drawn in above-the-belt shots or full-bodied [[SuperDeformed chibis]].
* In ''Webcomic/NipAndTuck'', [[http://www.rhjunior.com/NT/00309.html it's bright enough to be seen when he starts out red]].
* In ''Webcomic/TheNoordegraafFiles'' THEO, (who is male) has this when he's walked in on by a girl while he's shirtless. He hastily covers his chest with a blanket, even though, you know, he's male. [[InnocentFanservicegirl Akila]] also gets this whenever questioned about if her feelings for Katrina are platonic, or something more... [[LesYay intimate.]] (It's heavily implied she's attracted to Kat, but if they are in a relationship is currently unknown.)
* In ''Webcomic/QuestionableContent'':
** Hannelore and Marigold sometimes react like this when flustered.
** Many [=AnthroPC=] chassis designs can blush, even without blood vessels. Winslow [[https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3632 says]] that it's ostensibly to help humans empathize with them, but might just be for the [[CuteMachines cuteness factor]].
* In ''Webcomic/RustyAndCo'', [[http://rustyandco.com/comic/level-6-8/ Madeline, when she mentions Derek the Cleric.]]
* A rare male version with [[{{Tsundere}} Yuudai]] from ''Webcomic/{{Sakana}}'', he has one after [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace Taisei]] [[HoYay invades his comfort zone]] [[http://sakana.smackjeeves.com/comics/1205262/106/ here]] and [[http://mynameismad.deviantart.com/art/SAKANA-134-279277820?offset=0#comments here]], and, perhaps a more visible one due to it being coloured, [[http://mynameismad.deviantart.com/art/tumblbumbls-2-251972475?q here]].
* Common in ''Webcomic/SandraAndWoo''.
* ''Webcomic/SandraOnTheRocks'' gives Zoe a spectacular blush [[http://www.sandraontherocks.com/strips-sotr/certain_headstrong_model here.]] As she is far from sweetly naive, this is clearly a sign that Domenico's teasing, and the reminder of her past, have affected her fairly strongly.
* ''Webcomic/SequentialArt'', every time [[http://www.collectedcurios.com/sequentialart.php?s=404 Art and Kat]] are [[http://www.collectedcurios.com/sequentialart.php?s=748 trying]] to ignore the [[EveryoneCanSeeIt obvious mutual attraction]].
* Frequently seen in ''Webcomic/SlightlyDamned''. Most often on Kieri.
* Suzanne from ''Webcomic/SurprisingOcteal'' says she isn't really interested in boys. Her cheeks tell a different story.
* Very common with Julia in ''Webcomic/ThinkBeforeYouThink''.
* ''Webcomic/TowerOfGod:'' Yeon, when Viole put his fingers in her mouth... to free her from the control of a ParasitePuppeteer, of course.
* Luminescent Blushes are quite common and prominent in ''Webcomic/TwoKinds''. Each character has had at least once in his or her life.
* In ''Webcomic/TheWhiteboard'', Sandy shows one of these when the usual crowd is cheering Swampy's having slept with her the night before. Doc comments that it's so intense it's into the infrared.
* In ''WebComic/YokokasQuest'', Yokoka, Mao, and Azha feature this at times.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Western Animation]]
* ''WesternAnimation/OneHundredAndOneDalmatiansTheSeries'': In "Beauty Pageant Pandemonium", an irate Ivy's face turns red when her chances at winning the contest (due to her aunt Cruella's not-so-full-proof plan) turn bust.
* ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'':
** A flashback shows a young Mai turning aside during a Luminescent Blush for a second when a young Zuko walks by-- an impressive show of emotion considering what she's [[EmotionlessGirl usually like.]]
** As the DVDCommentary points out, there is a rather odd-looking scene when Suki is seen with this despite wearing rather thick facial makeup. (Sokka pulls off this same feat.)
** In addition, in the season 3 episode "Sokka's Master", Toph tells Sokka that Aang and Katara missed him, but she didn't mind so much. She turns away to say this and blushes, to the camera's sight.
** Aang does this pretty much any time Katara is touching him, or gets into a formal dress, or puts on her swimwear... (he's ''biologically'' 12 and she's 14, so it's pretty innocent).
** Zuko also does this when Toph glomps him in the finale, complete with speechlessness and his eye getting all wide. [[http://piandao.org/screenshots/fire/fire18/fire18-698.jpg It's rather adorable.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' used this on Finn several times, [[BodyguardCrush most notably when he's around Princess Bubblegum]].
* Happens to Cooper in the ''WesternAnimation/Ben10UltimateAlien'' episode "Absolute Power Part II" after Gwen kisses him for reversing Kevin's transformation.
* In two episodes of ''WesternAnimation/ChalkZone'', this happens to Rudy twice. Once in "My Big Fat Chalk Wedding" after Snap rescues Rudy from getting married to a chalk drawing of Bobbie Sue (a little girl with a crush on him in the real world) by pretending [[SpeakNowOrForeverHoldYourPeace he was going to marry him]], and then again in "The Crush" when the girl he develops a crush on, Trina, pretends to like him back to humor him.
* About every character of ''WesternAnimation/CodeLyoko'' sports a Luminescent Blush at one time or another.
** Though the funky-looking exhaustion blushes of Aelita and Yumi in "I'd Rather Not Talk About It" [[http://img.codelyoko.fr/galeries/74_je_prefere_ne_pas_en_parler/Je_prefere_ne_pas_en_parler_013.jpg take the cake]]. They look more like bruises than blushes.
* Every time a character blushes in ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'', their cheeks are a ridiculous shade of red.
* Dialed UpToEleven on ''WesternAnimation/{{Daria}}'' when Daria had a full-body rash that necessitated a hospital visit. Turns out the "rash" was a stress reaction to her being around Trent.
* This happens frequently to the title character of ''WesternAnimation/{{Doug}}'' when he's around his crush, Patti. Happens to Skeeter as well.
* A bad habit of Korra in ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'' when she's [[CrushBlush attracted to someone]]. In season one, this usually involves [[TallDarkAndHandsome Mako]], while in season four, it's perhaps the most blatant sign of her crush on [[spoiler:Asami.]]
* Jenny, the titular robot from ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot'', blushes bright blue.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'':
** In the episode "Linc or Swim", Lisa uses a formula that eliminates [[PuttingThePeeInPool urine in the pool]]; when ''all'' the water evaporates, the rest of Lincoln's sisters (minus Lily) blush in embarrassment.
** In "Study Muffin", all of Lincoln's sisters (minus Lily, presumably since she's a baby) do this when they see Hugh. Hugh himself does this when Lisa lifts up his shirt.
* The ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' short "Rabbit of Seville": happens to WesternAnimation/ElmerFudd when WesternAnimation/BugsBunny (in drag) snips away the support for his suspenders and he pulls them back up.
* In the ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', this is a common aspect of a character feeling embarrassed. Flattery or sheepishness gives us a BlushSticker instead.
** In the episode "Lesson Zero", the Mayor of Ponyville blushes likewise [[spoiler:after she and half the town are broken free from chasing and fighting over an old doll (on which an enchantment of attraction had been cast.)]]
** Spike sports a particularly bright one of these in "Dragon Quest" when his pony friends start teasing him about his cute appearance.
* ''WesternAnimation/ObanStarRacers'': This happens between Molly and Jordan, when they feel something emotional or funny with each other.
* This happens to Dum Dum in ''WesternAnimation/ThePerilsOfPenelopePitstop'' episode "Game Of Peril" after Penelope kisses him for stealing The Hooded Claw's hat and cape, as they were the last items needed for a scavenger hunt.
* Happens to Ray Stantz from ''WesternAnimation/TheRealGhostbusters'' episode "Look Homeward Ray" after his childhood crush Elaine kisses him for saving the town from the ghost.
* Pearl from ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' blushes quite a bit (and her blush is a ''bluish'' tint thanks to her skin color being pearly-white).
** Connie has a few in "An Indirect Kiss", and with the last one at the end of the episode, her eyesight is magically healed by Steven's magical saliva from the juice box.
** Near the end of [[Recap/StevenUniverseS3E4BarnMates "Barn Mates"]], the resident {{Tsundere}} Lapis Lazuli does this when Peridot smiles and giggles at her.
** In [[Recap/StevenUniverseS5E28ChangeYourMind "Change Your Mind"]], [[spoiler:[[BigBad White Diamond]] blushes ''pink'' after Steven points out she's acting like a child after her temper tantrum. Her "flaw" winds up spreading to her puppet Gems and even to ''[[UpToEleven her headship]]'', who in turn blush pink as well. The blush is implied to be ''literally'' luminescent, too: the entire previously white room turned pink as well.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'': Used on Raven quite a few times. Starfire does this a lot, but hers is ''literally'' luminescent on account of her alien physiology.

* Happens all the damn time in ''WesternAnimation/TotallySpies'', to pretty much everybody.
* Used frequently in ''WesternAnimation/{{Wakfu}}''. Evangelyne and [[IdiotHero Sadlygrove]] both do this, especially around each other. Also some between [[ShipTease Yugo and Amalia]]. Even more so in the manga.
* Happens to Raimundo in the ''WesternAnimation/XiaolinShowdown'' episode "Citadel Of Doom" when Kimiko kisses him.

** [[https://thelustrousyellowdiamond.tumblr.com/post/178131452055/ooc-she-doesnt-get-it Yellow blushes deeply]] and cuts Greg off from explaining [[TheTalk the birds and the bees]] any further to her.

-->Lyta's eyes were widening at the same time that her skin was flushing crimson.
* The protagonist of [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/93809/a-pleasant-surprise A Pleasant Surprise]] has this reaction to Fluttershy, especially as she [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/93809/a-pleasant-surprise becomes more physical]] with her advances up to and including taking her virginity.
* Used heavily in [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/100083/1/blissful-dream/blissful-dream Blissful Dream]], illustrating the passion the couple holds for each other.
* ''Fanfic/ACrownOfStars'': After opening up and reaching out to each other Shinji and Asuka often blush when they are talking or someone comments on their relationship.
** In chapter 66 Asuka blushes brightly as a friend of hers is making insinuations about what she and Shinji did the last night. Simultaneously, Hikari blushes due to the topic of the conversation.
--->''Asuka was glad the drinks she’d already had which gave her fair skin a good flush. It gave her some cover for the blush that now tried to set her cheeks on fire.''
** And in another chapter:
--->Shinji was glad she couldn’t see him blush with her head tucked under his chin.
* ''Fanfic/AdviceAndTrust'': After getting together, Shinji and Asuka blush often when they are together or someone drops hints about their feelings.
** In chapter 3 Asuka flushes while thinking of what her and Shinji did the last night right after getting together. Later Shinji becomes red after slipping that thinking about Asuka kept him awake at night.
** In chapter 4 Misato teases Shinji about his feelings towards Asuka. Shinji flushed incandescently.
--->''Misato laughed again. "Yes, we'll be back in time for that. Going to make a feast for your sweetie, hmm?"\\
"Misato..." he whined, blushing. 'My sweetie, my girlfriend, my lover oh holy crap oh gods she loves me she loves me she loves me!' He blushed harder.\\
Misato, fortunately, misinterpreted his nearly incandescent flush.''
* ''Webcomic/AkiChansLife'' -sequel to ''Fanfic/TheSecondTry''-: Asuka tasks Shinji with explaining to [[spoiler:their little girl]] where babies come from [[http://jimmywolk.studenten-froendenberg.de/eng/aki.php?browse.4.119 in this page]]. Shinji's face tells everything...
* ''Fanfic/TheChildOfLove'': During a conversation with Rei in chapter 1, Shinji blushes when she mentions what he and Asuka did and when he asks her if she is jealous.
-->''Shinji could feel a light blush spread across his face.''
* ''Fanfic/ChildrenOfAnElderGod'': In chapter 4 Asuka bushes profusely when Kaji praises her offhandedly:
--> ''Asuka blushed furiously and tightened her embrace just a little bit.''
* ''Fanfic/DoingItRightThisTime'' makes heavy use of this trope in Chapter 2, when Asuka and Shinji see Rei in a ''really'' nice new dress.
* ''Fanfic/DungeonKeeperAmi'': Ami, occasionally. Usually out of embarrassment, like when it's revealed that she could use her Keeper Sight to peep on [[spoiler:Dark General Jadeite]] while he's changing, in ''[[https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/threads/dungeon-keeper-ami-sailor-moon-dungeon-keeper-story-only-thread.30066/page-2#post-6355703 A Solution to the Reaper Problem?]]'':
--> "What? I wouldn't!" Ami sputtered, her face taking on the same same colour as a ripe tomato, and she raised both hands defensively, waving them left and right.
* ''Manga/Evangelion303'': Used heavily in this story. A lot of characters blush constantly. Shinji and Asuka have at least one for each conversation of theirs.
** Here is an [[http://grummancat.deviantart.com/art/Almost-there-427929543 example]].
** [[http://eva303.smackjeeves.com/comics/920334/051/ And here]].

* ''Fanfic/{{HERZ}}'': Even although he is now twenty-six, Shinji still blushes like a schoolboy… and his wife is not very different.
** In chapter 1 Shinji blushes when Kurumi tries to flirt with him:
--->''Shinji's blush was so pronounced that he looked like he was going to burst.''
** And in that same chapter Asuka’s face flushes when Kensuke tells her not whipping Shinji too hard:
--->''That stopped Asuka's pacing. She spun around, her face beet-red, as she sputtered incoherently.''
* In chapter 4 of ''Fanfic/LastChildOfKrypton'', Shinji blushes profusely after he and Asuka gaze at each other.

-->''As the words sunk in, Asuka's eyes grew wider and wider. I felt myself blushing heavily under her gaze.''
* Michikyuu Kanae in ''Fanfic/KyonBigDamnHero'' does this whenever Kyon is around. '''Whenever'''.
** Also, the sheer act of Kyon kissing Haruhi inflicts one on Koizumi. Then when Kanae notices it when he returns to the clubroom and asks Yuki for an explanation, she blushes too, when she explains that they're "exchanging memetic information through relevant channels". She mistakes it for a conversation.
* In the ''[[Literature/TheHungerGames Hunger Games]]'' fanfic ''Fanfic/SomeSemblanceOfMeaning'': as both a ShrinkingViolet and a Type B {{Tsundere}}, heroine Vale Whitaker is quite prone to this.
* Done in ''[[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/106068/1/relax/intimacy Relax]]'' as a way of showing the lovers' arousal.
* ''Fanfic/MonstersInParadise'': In-universe, it is noted that none of Patchouli's tomes and literature prepared her for social interactions beyond those she dealt with on a regular basis. While meeting with Akyu, she has a (brief) encounter with the [[WalkingShirtlessScene eternally shirtless]] [[Manga/CromartieHighSchool Freddie]], requiring her to find a place to rest and get her blushing[[note]]and asthma[[/note]] under control.
* ''Fanfic/TheLoneliestLaundromat'': Sudsy's impression of her blush after seeing [[spoiler:Flash Sentry walk into her laundromat, likely going to strip to launder his clothes.]]
--> Sudsy kept her book in front of her face as he walked by, though she was pretty sure he noticed her light up like a fire truck upon seeing him.
* In ''Fanfic/XMenTheEarlyYears'', Scott Summers tends to have this effect on Jean Grey.
-->Jean eyed him coldly for a moment. "You know, between changing in the locker room and the bad guys pretty much blowing our uniforms off, there's possibly about six inches of you that I haven't seen."\\
"I didn't know you looked," Scott answered smoothly.\\
Jean felt her cheeks get warm. "I never... I didn't mean... I just catch a glimpse... You're enjoying this way too much, Summers," she fired back, embarrassed.\\
"Maybe just a little," Scott replied. "It's not like you said I have a cute butt." At that, Jean felt herself get a little redder. Damn her fair complexion. Great, just what she needed; another reason to get a glimpse of his butt. "It's not like the thought of a hidden tattoo might turn you on," he continued. "Or that bad boys push your buttons right?" Now, Jean could feel her face flame.
* In ''Fanfic/TowardABrightFuture'', Y/N, Class 1-A's new TA, has caused a lot of these reactions from her students for whatever reason.
** When Y/N compliments Midoriya on his cheerful smile (or anything about him really), his whole face goes red and he starts sputtering. Everyone else finds it hilarious.
** Just about any time Tokoyami's Quirk [[LivingShadow Dark Shadow]] starts becoming [[CuddleBug overly affectionate]] with Y/N, it leaves his container with some really ruffled feathers.
** Monoma gets this after a few interactions with Y/N and actually developing a PrecociousCrush on her, much to the amusement of his classmates, as does his classmate Kaibara later. Y/N is oblivious in both cases.
** Iida gets this after he puns for Y/N and she gives him a hug in thanks.
** When Y/N jokingly declares her love for Kouda after he gives her [[FuzzTherapy a cat army to cheer her up]], his face goes bright red and he runs away.
** Y/N gives Amajiki a hug after he saves her from one of Hatsume's wayward inventions, eliciting this response.
** Finally, Y/N herself gets one - when she gets a kiss on the hand from the visiting Hawks.
* ''Fanfic/TheManyDatesOfDannyFenton'': A recurring thing for not just Danny, but some of the girls he dates. If there's even a hint of an interest, they blush.
* In ''Fanfic/GoldenThreadsTieUs'', [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening Severa]]'s face practically glows red when she's praised by Lucina.
-->"Well, if it's Severa telling me that, then I can't let her down." Lucina's smile practically glowed, and the flush in Severa's cheeks earlier was nothing compared to this. Her face felt like it was blazing.
* In ''Street Fighter''/''Evangelion'' crossover ''Fanfic/NeonGenesisEvangelionSenshiNoMichi'', Asuka is rolling her eyes at Shinji and their master Gouken getting all emotional until Misato reminds her that she got all teary-eyed when they left Gouken's dojo. Asuka's cheeks instantly turn bright red in embarassment.
* ''Fanfic/UltimateDCUHeadverse'': In the sixth chapter of "Getting By", Kate blushes when she accidentally gets a peek at [[ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} Linda]]'s cleavage.
-->I nod like a child enamored by her hero and watch Linda lean down to pick the tray off the floor. Her shirt rides up slightly revealing a sliver of skin. As soon as Linda sits up, I turn my eyes to something else. "Katherine, are you okay? Your face is all red." I'm sure I turn a deeper shade at the use of my full name. "Kate, I think you need to eat. If you turn any redder your face will match your hair."
* In ''Fanfic/HomeSick'', Aran goes pink in the face (said to be the colour of bubble gum) after being kissed.
** In sister story ''Fanfic/LetMeWarmYourHeart'', Narcis blushes [[SicknessEqualsRedness even redder]] when he's embarrassed over [[SneezeOfDoom his loud sneezes]].

* ''Webcomic/AskHerLustrousnessYellowDiamond'':
** [[https://thelustrousyellowdiamond.tumblr.com/post/178131452055/ooc-she-doesnt-get-it Yellow blushes deeply]] and cuts Greg off from explaining [[TheTalk the birds and the bees]] any further to her.
** Yellow Pearl blushes [[https://thelustrousyellowdiamond.tumblr.com/post/179976046620 when her disguised Diamond hugs her]].
** Yellow blushes quite a few times the more she interacts with [[InterspeciesRomance Dewey]].

* In the ''Manga/AhMyGoddess'' episode "Ah! A Demon has Come and is Creating Calamity!", Mara turns Keiichi into a Honda Cub. When Belldandy and Urd turn him back, they forget that his clothes didn't change with him, leaving him naked. Urd has an amused look on her face, while Belldandy's entire face turns a deep pink.
* Everyone in ''Manga/AiYoriAoshi'', given that they are varying degrees of [[ShrinkingViolet shy]] in romantic situation. Particularly funny with [[TokenMiniMoe Chika]], since it has to show through her deep tan.
* ''Manga/AssassinationClassroom'':
** After not studying for his exams due to overconfidence and as a result dropping substantially, Karma is called on it by Koro-Sensei, causing him to break into one of these, and a pretty substantial one at that. The whole thing looks ridiculous as his entire face turns red, nearly same colour as his hair, so his whole head is bright red and this is one of only two times he blushes.
** Nagisa also does this. A notable example is when he is dressed up as a girl in a club and is obviously uncomfortable. Another good example is directly after, when it turns out he dressed up for nothing and everyone took photos.
** Kayano does this after Nagisa kisses her to snap her out of a rage.
** Korosensei himself does this whenever he is smitten with something. His face turns bright pink when he does it.
** Professor Bitch usually does it to seduce someone, but sometimes blushes genuinely when faced with Karasuma.
* In the first chapter / episode of ''Manga/AsteroidInLove'', when Mira goes on with the story between her and a boy called Ao many years ago, the blue-haired girl sitting next to Mira at the Earth Sciences clubroom starts blushing heavily. It is because of this trope the senpais Mari and Mikage suspect that other girl's involvement in Mira's story...
-->'''Mikage:''' Wanna tell us why you're blushing, Ao Manaka?
-->'''Mira:''' [[BigWhat EHHH!?]] You're [[UnsettlingGenderReveal him... or her?]]
* In the anime version of ''Manga/AttackOnTitan'', [[spoiler:Annie Leonhardt]] [[NotSoStoic has this expression]] while [[LaughingMad laughing]] and [[SlasherSmile grinning like mad]] [[spoiler:when she is rightly accused of being the Female Titan.]] This series managed to make even ''this'' trope [[PlayedForHorror creepy]].
* The [[TheQuietOne emotionally repressed Sakaki]] on ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh'' is quite prone to this, especially [[{{Moe}} when presented with]] [[CuteKitten something cute]].
* Most of the Yacht Club girls in ''LightNovel/BodaciousSpacePirates'' when confronted with sweets, especially if it's Chiaki (normally TheStoic) facing a [[RunningGag chocolate parfait]].
* This trope is used to show [[DefrostingIceQueen a breakthrough in Casca's cold and aloof personality]] in ''Manga/{{Berserk}}''. After her excursion with Guts, where they were stranded in the woods after a battle and he ends up saving her life twice, Casca begins to open up to reveal that [[SugarAndIcePersonality she really isn't that mean of a girl.]] The first major iceberg was broken when Guts playfully slapped her on the butt in front of all of their comrades, causing Casca's face to go red with embarrassment. From there, she starts blushing around Guts a lot more [[LoveEpiphany for other reasons...]]
** In the movie, when Griffith meets Charlotte for SexForSolace and starts it off with a ForcefulKiss, the virginal and pure princess is so surprised and aroused that she sports one of these on her face.
* ''Manga/BlackLagoon'':
** Revy does this after she realizes Rock was watching her show some kids how to aim with their popguns. [[{{Tsundere}} She immediately resorts]] to FreudianThreat if he ever tells anyone about it.
** Roberta (an even more badass ActionGirl on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge) does this when given a CooldownHug by her MoralityChain Garcia Lovelace.
* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'':
** Ichigo goes BRIGHT red when he first sees [[NakedOnArrival Yoruichi's nude human form]].
** Anime episode 262. When Haineko (Rangiku's zanpakuto spirit) meets a cute swordbeast named Narunosuke she blushes this way repeatedly.
* Li Syaoran of ''Manga/CardCaptorSakura'', who gives the title character a run for her money with the amount of screen time he spends as a human tomato. Syaoran's blushing potential can create shades surpassing tomatoes and even beetroots. ''Especially'' his blush when Sakura hugged him for the first time in the anime - he never managed to pull anything quite like ''that'' again.
* Misaka in ''LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex'' is prone to doing this when around Touma or when others point out or inquire about her feelings for him. Sometimes a combination of this, her tsundereism and Touma's density leads to really funny scenarios.
** In fact, seeing Misaka's reaction to Touma being mentioned is Kuroko's BerserkButton.
** At one point in the second season, the Misaka clones are having a minor argument over #19090 deviating from the others by reading a women's magazine. When Touma innocently makes #10032 (aka Misaka Imouto) remember one of the tips in the magazine she heard from the others[[note]]the tip says that wearing a ring a man buys you on your left ring finger means you're on the winner side; Touma mentioned that #10032 should make herself visually different from the others to be more recognizable by using an accessory, "like a necklace or a '''ring'''"[[/note]], she instantly blushes.
* Otome from ''Manga/CherryJuice'' sported one of these that covered her entire face when she awoke to find that she had fallen out of bed at some point during the night, and had spent the remainder of the time sleeping on top of her half-naked step-brother Minami. Thereafter nearly every interaction between the two involved this to some degree.
* ''VisualNovel/{{Clannad}}'':
** A few characters blush that way in ''VisualNovel/{{Clannad}}''. Nagisa gets it most often out of all the characters.
** Pretty much everyone does this at least once; even [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G74w6B15cOM&t=1m15s Sunohara.]] [[{{Tsundere}} Kyou]] manages a near-instantaneous full-face glowy blush in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbPaekU2Bh0&t=1m11s this scene.]]
* [[OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent Yuki]] from ''Manga/DanceInTheVampireBund'' gets these quite often, whether it is [[UnluckyChildhoodFriend confessing her feelings to her classmate]] or finding the director of her school reading her [[YaoiFangirl Boys Love work-in-progress]]. Of course neither said classmate (Akira) nor said director (Mina) are immune themselves.
* Himeko of ''Manga/DestinyOfTheShrineMaiden'', a lot. Although given that she's an innocent {{Moe}} ShrinkingViolet in a SchoolgirlLesbians anime, this should surprise no-one.
* Appears as early as chapter one of ''Manga/DontBecomeAnOtakuShinozakiSan'', where it was Akina's reaction hearing from the school nurse that Kaede came to the nurse's office with teary eyes, really worried about Akina's condition after she fainted from a lack of sleep. Akina blushed knowing Kaede cared a lot about her, cementing her resolve to get deeper into the otaku pit to get close to her.
* Done with ''Vegeta'' of all people in ''Anime/DragonBallGT'': after shaving off his mustache [[DaddysGirl at his daughter's insistence,]] he goes ComplimentFishing about his appearance to Bulma, Goten, and Chi-Chi, who all [[DidYouGetANewHaircut pretend to not see anything different about him,]] until he loses his temper and screams at them before storming out of the room, blush-zone glowing from a combination of genuine offense that they didn't notice and embarrassment at himself for getting into such a ridiculous situation. Extra hilarious because this is the same guy who, some 25-odd years earlier, [[CharacterDevelopment tried to destroy the planet and kill these characters' families and would never have given the tiniest damn what a lowly human thought of him.]]
* Monta is pretty much the only character who does this in ''Manga/Eyeshield21'' (and that's [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters saying something]]), in response to any and all [[IDidntMeanToTurnYouOn innocent platonic affection]] from Mamori. And the poor kid tries so hard to be macho...
* Happens in ''Manga/FullMetalAlchemist'' to [[spoiler: [[WackyMarriageProposal Edward when he proposes]] to Winry]].
* ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic'':
** Sōsuke from ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic'' does this a few times -- most notably during ''Anime/FullMetalPanicFumoffu''. [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Sousuke_blush.jpg He does it once]] when he's defending Kaname against some pathetic Yakuza, and she threatens them that she'll call Bonta-kun over to beat them up until they cry. Of course, Sōsuke feels very embarrassed because... well, ''he's'' Bonta-kun, and he thinks she doesn't know. Another time is when Kaname dresses like a [[ChristmasCake hot, older housewife]], and pretends that she's having an affair with him. He doesn't recognize her, and [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Sousuke_blush2.jpg feels extremely shy and embarrassed]], turning [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Sousuke_blush3.jpg bright red]].
** In the first few episodes of ''FMP'' it's used to show that Kaname is lying when she claims she doesn't find NewTransferStudent Sōsuke attractive. That and the occasional LaughingMad scene.
* ''Manga/FutureDiary'':
** Yuno is often like this whenever she talks to Yuki. Considering she's a walking {{Stalker with a Crush}}-{{Yandere}} combo, it comes off just a ''tad'' creepy. Not just that, but she also gets the blush when '''killing''' for her Yuki. Talk about creepy.
** Yuki himself tends to have this reaction to Yuno whenever she goes PantsFree or [[ShamelessFanserviceGirl casually changes clothes in front of him]].
** Minene does this in the flashback in Episode 10 when Nishijima tells her that she looks cute. Cue her trying to "wipe" the redness off her face. [[spoiler:She does this again, in a much later episode, when Nishijima proposes to her.]]
* ''Manga/{{Genshiken}}'':
** Ohno, the subverted AloofDarkHairedGirl of ''Manga/{{Genshiken}}'' appears to have a constant blush in both the {{Manga}} and {{Anime}} versions. It remains even during most of her {{Cosplay}}ing sessions, but her embarrassment seems to feed her confidence. Ogiue on the other hand hates the fellow club {{Otaku}}s, in typical Type A {{Tsundere}} behaviour, but blushes profusely when [[YaoiFangirl thinking of her beloved yaoi]]. Ogiue's normally implacable and stoic facade makes this quite significant of her internal conflicts over her {{Otaku}} nature, rather than some attempt at a throwaway {{Moe}} visual gag.
** Ohno also had this when [[YaoiFangirl her yaoi hobby was found out]], but she was more concerned of what their impression would be in regards to the type of men she was attracted to (bald men), rather than the yaoi itself.
* Leopard in ''Anime/TheGirlWhoLeaptThroughSpace'' manages to pull one of these off despite being a large computer.
* While it is commonplace in ''Anime/GundamBuildFighters'', Episode 23 took the cake by applying this trope ''on a Mobile Suit'', having Ricardo Fellini's [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Wing Gundam]] blush when grappled from behind by his girlfriend Kirara's [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam0083StardustMemory Gerbera Tetra]]. After the episode aired, animation director Masami Obari [[LampshadeHanging tweeted]] that "[[NeverLiveItDown now I have to live with having added blush marks to a Mobile Suit for the rest of my life...]]"
* ''Manga/GunslingerGirl'': Brainwashed and emotionally restrained Henrietta does this a lot (it's even shown in the TitleSequence) when interacting with her "handler", Giuseppe, due to her PrecociousCrush. Even uptight cyborgs like Triela and Claes blush if their handler makes physical contact with them. Petrushka/Petra is a second generation cyborg and thus subject to lesser amounts of brainwashing, but her FieryRedhead persona means she does this a lot too.
* Misaki from ''Manga/HanaNoMizoShiru'' blushes really, really, '''really''' frequently.
* ''Manga/HanaukyoMaidTeam La Verite'' episode 2. During Taro's dream, Taro and Mariel both blush to demonstrate their attraction to each other.
* In ''Manga/HanjukuJoshi'', Yae is very prone to this, since she's a relatively straight-laced NaiveNewcomer at a [[OneGenderSchool girls' school]] whose students have [[ShamelessFanserviceGirl somewhat relaxed standards of modesty.]]
* ''Manga/HappyHappyClover'': Mallow is seen doing this twice in the series. The first is when she introduces herself to class as a new student in the first story and again in "Mallow's Heart Sours" in Volume 5 after learning [[spoiler: that Shallot likes her.]]
* [[{{Moe}} Mikuru Asahina]] from ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'' pulls this off several times in the series. The most dramatic example occurs in [[TheMovie The Dissapearance Of Haruhi Suzumiya]] when [[OnlySaneMan Kyon]] offers proof of his being from an [[AlternateUniverse Alternate Universe]] by telling her how she has a star shaped mole on her left breast.
* Akane in ''[[VideoGame/HarukanaruTokiNoNakaDe Harukanaru Toki no Naka de - Hachiyou Shou]]'' does this occasionally, often in response to Tomomasa's teasing. A few of [[CastFullOfPrettyBoys the boys]] are quite capable of out-blushing her, though -- particularly Tenma, and ''especially'' Eisen.
* Haruka in ''LightNovel/HarukaNogizakasSecret''. She's more prone to this than most characters, spending a good half of each episode red in the face.
* ''Manga/HayateTheCombatButler'':
** Nagi gets these, particularly when she thinks she's been given a chance to be alone with Hayate and especially strong when she thinks it's a chance to give him a kiss.
** The other characters have all gotten chances at having them as well.
** Hayate in particular gets an absolutely epic one in the manga at least when [[spoiler: Maria (in 'disguise') and Hayate are riding the clock tower elevator and Maria teases him by asking if he is in love with the StudentCouncilPresident (i.e. Hinagiku). Hayate's reaction consists of literally this, much stammering, apparently trying to deny it by listing all of Hinagiku's good qualities and finally being unable to speak coherently.]]
* [[{{Tsundere}} Integra]] ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}'' [[BelligerentSexualTension towards Alucard]] when he's being an ''idiot''.
* ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'':
** Many characters have this permanently. In fact, the blush is often overlaid with a bright pink one when especially embarrassed or sick - see [[{{Tsundere}} Britain]] with a cold, or [[PerpetualFrowner Germany]] whenever [[TheDitz Italy]] [[HoYay is in]] [[ShipTease the room.]]
* Though everyone blushes at one time or another in ''VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry'', Rena and Keiichi tend to (manga only) blush a lot, both in standard form and due to stress/fear,
* Hiroki of ''Manga/IThinkOurSonIsGay'' often gets flushed when the issue of sexuality is raised, regardless of context. He's supposed to be ClosetGay, but the blushing-induced NoPokerFace means [[TransparentCloset most of his family know his sexuality]], but would [[SecretSecretKeeper rather wait for him to come out]].
* ''Anime/TheIdolMaster'' - Played for laughs. Chihaya blushes when Miki enters the bath with her and Haruka on the Live For You OVA, though it isn't as much an embarassed blush and [[ACupAngst more]] [[GreenEyedMonster an envious]] [[BuxomIsBetter one.]]
* In ''Manga/InuYasha'', Inuyasha, Kagome, and Sango, all blush quite often, especially the latter since she constantly has to deal with the shameless flirting and wandering hands of her LoveInterest [[ChivalrousPervert Miroku]].
* In ''Anime/JoseeTheTigerAndTheFish'', Josee the classical tsundere main heroine does this a lot, particularly when Kana asks if Tsuneo is her boyfriend.
* This trope gets used heavily in ''Manga/JunjouRomantica''. Misaki and Hiroki usually get the worst of it.
* Shiro in ''Anime/{{K}}'' does this ''all'' the time. Examples include when [[HoYay Kuroh half-hugs him as he's rescuing him from HOMRA,]] and when he first meets [[PleasePutSomeClothesOn Neko.]] Kuroh gets the blush too, whenever he talks about his late Master Ichigen.
* Yurie from ''Anime/{{Kamichu}}'' does this a lot, especially when it has to do with Kenji. Her younger brother Shoukichi also tends to do this around Miko.
* The titular character of ''Manga/{{Karin}}'', who is [[TropeCodifier Luminiscent Blush incarnate]], deserves special mention. She's so [[{{Moe}} easily embarrassed]], that it's hard to catch her while ''not'' blushing. Other characters of the series even comment on it. [[FridgeBrilliance Of course, it could just be all the blood she has]].
* Ryuko Matoi from ''Anime/KillLaKill'' does this whenever she's wearing her [[ClothesMakeTheSuperman superpowered]] SailorFuku Senketsu. Understandable, considering how downright {{Stripperiffic}} it is.
* ''Manga/KimagureOrangeRoad'': Episode 2. [[IdiotHero Kyosuke]] [[OfficialCouple and]] [[{{Tsundere}} Madoka]] are washing dishes together when their hands accidentally brush together. Quickly they broke contact and kept on washing dishes, lowering their heads and avoiding eye contact. Their faces were completely red as they did so.
* Yui from ''Manga/KOn'' does this a lot, but especially notable is the one she shows when Mio attempts to call her by her given name.
* Kanna Aoyagi, the protagonist of ''Manga/KoeDeOshigoto'' has her blushing face more often than not. Anyone who steps in the recording booth gets one pretty quickly as well. This is only natural, considering they are recording dialog for H-games.
* ''Manga/LuckyStar'':
** The above picture is of ''Manga/LuckyStar'''s resident {{Tsundere}} Kagami, who often plays this trope straight. At one point, she went beyond that to display a ''full body blush'' after "accidentally" opening a [[{{Yaoi}} suspicious]] [[{{Doujinshi}} manga]] at Comiket. Of her [[LightNovel/FullMetalPanic favorite series]].
** Kanata blushed as Sou reminisced of their time together. That's right, ghosts can blush too.
* ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha'':
** Fate, socially uncomfortable former DarkMagicalGirl that she is, gets these often.
** Yuuno also gets this one; he's a boy, but he poses as a WeaselMascot.
** Nanoha doing this to Chrono was nearly a RunningGag towards the end of the first series (sadly, only during the first series). What can we say, she's ''adorable'' when she smiles!
** Einhart also gets these from time to time, such as when Nove takes her by surprise in the police station waiting room.
* ''Mazinger'' universe:
** In ''Anime/MazingerZ'' and its sequels -''Anime/GreatMazinger'' and ''Anime/UFORoboGrendizer'' this trope was much more prevalent in the manga than in the anime (where the male heroes usually were {{Chaste Hero}}s). In the manga episodes, pretty much all teen characters (including Kouji Kabuto himself) blushed brightly at one point or another, either because his/her LoveInterest was praising them/flirting with them or because someone had suggested they were one couple. In ''Anime/{{Mazinkaiser}}'' also was usual seeing Kouji or Sayaka -- or some another character -- blushing furiously.
** Original manga's episode 8 was a good example. Kouji and Sayaka [[AccidentalPervert accidentally saw at each other naked]] [[HotSpringsEpisode in the hot springs]]. Their faces were fully red afterwards.
* This occurs constantly in ''Manga/MeAndMyBrothers'' to many of the characters showing deeper emotion, when they are not sporting their more lighthearted [[BlushSticker Blush Stickers]], which are used even more so. This is most effective to the reader when it is happening to Miyashita Sakura and her oldest stepbrother [[WholesomeCrossdresser Masashi]], [[spoiler:who later [[BrotherSisterIncest harbour romantic feelings for each other]]]].
* ''Manga/MermaidMelodyPichiPichiPitch'' has its cases of these. [[TheHero Lucia]] sometimes gets her entire face red, usually when thinking of Kaito.
* The English title of ''Manga/MissMachiko'' is ''The Shame of Miss Machiko'' (Machiko Teacher). Every episode involves the main character (or her female students) being placed in embarassing situations, which involves lots of blushing.
* The otherwise VERY [[WarIsHell serious]] second season of ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam00'' has Allelujah blushing twice:
** First when [[spoiler:he's rescued from prison]] and meets up with Lockon[[spoiler:'s twin brother]] who the others failed to tell him about; Allelujah is [[KilledOffForReal understandably]] VERY surprised at Lockon's presence, then he looks from Lockon to the nonplussed Tieria and back...and then he blushes and apologizes for his outburst. [[NotSoStoic Tieria]]'s smiling response is that he hasn't changed but shouldn't.
** Second when [[spoiler:Mileina]] asks whether Allelujah and [[spoiler:Marie]] are a couple; both respond with simultaneous blushes.
* ''Manga/MonochromeFactor'': [[HoYay Haruka blushed upon looking at Akira]] in the first episode.
* Standard reaction of women when they see The Medicine Peddler in ''Anime/{{Mononoke}}''.
* In ''Manga/MotherKeeper'', Ricalna gets this in the first chapter when his adoptive dad, Graham, pats his head and tells him he's a son he's extremely proud of.
* Happens so often to the characters from ''Manga/MyBalls'' that you start to wonder if there's a fever going around.
* ''Anime/MyHime'':
** [[{{Tsundere}} Akira]] gets one while trying to convince Takumi that he didn't see her save him from an Orphan, and that she is actually a "secret ninja of the school". Her face not only turns completely red, but ''also'' has {{Blush Sticker}}s on it.
** Happens to other characters as well, especially Mai and Natsuki.
* In ''Anime/MyOtome'', Arika does a full body blush when kissed on the hand by a Prince.
* ''Franchise/{{Naruto}}'':
** Hinata whenever she so much as looks at Naruto, primarily in Part I.
** Sakura also sported a bright blush several times. Examples include when Naruto faced Zabuza for the first time, or when she met Naruto after the TimeSkip and he seemed more mature...[[IdiotBall until he proved that he wasn't]]. Then [[DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale she proceeded to punch the crap out of him]]. Most of the blushes from Sakura were [[SingleTargetSexuality directed towards Sasuke]], though also primarily in Part I before his FaceHeelTurn.
** In ''Manga/{{Boruto}}'' both Boruto and Sarada have gotten this [[ShipTease in relation to each other]].
* ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'':
** Negi just has that effect on people. [[ChickMagnet Especially girls]]. Asuna, Setsuna, Nodoka and Yue in particular warrant mention.
** As does [[spoiler:the fake Asuna (Shiori)]], who blushes a hell of a lot more and a lot deeper than [[spoiler:the ''real'' one]] ever did. And that's saying something. [[spoiler:When she's unmasked at the end of Ch. 283, her face combines this trope, CryCute, and a mixture of attraction to and fear of Negi to make her [[{{Moe}} irresistably adorable]].]]
** Chachamaru spends her ''whole'' Pactio chapter in this state. The ''reasons'' for it range from shyness, to [[TheWoobie fear and sadness]], to what can only be called post-orgasmic haze. Even better, she's a RobotGirl.
* ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'':
** Shinji and Asuka are prone to these almost whenever they interact. Probably because Shinji is a shy boy and Asuka is a {{Tsundere}}.
*** In one episode, Asuka starts scolding Shinji during school time for forgetting their lunches, while he tries to get his side in. Toji tosses off a remark that they're arguing LikeAnOldMarriedCouple. Cue [[http://i.imgur.com/lhV8mJX.jpg double luminescent blush]] (they HAD kissed not many days earlier), [[http://i.imgur.com/D8UMdeN.jpg then simultaneous denial]] in perfect stereo.
*** In episode eight Asuka blushed when she realized Shinji was taking a peek at her while she was changing clothes.
*** In episode 9 Shinji noticed Asuka was sleeping by his side. He stared at her face for a while, blushing profusely as he did so.
*** Shinji gets another (and [[SomethingElseAlsoRises something else]]) when he overhears [[GirlOnGirlIsHot questionable behaviour between Misato and Asuka]] in the female area of the hot springs.
---->'''Shinji:''' ''(whilst cringing and submerging his blushing face in the water)'' [[UnusualEuphemism Thermal expansion!]] How embarrassing!!
*** Asuka flirts with Shinji by a swimming pool at one point by showing off her new bikini and "teaching" him about [[MemeticMutation thermal expansion]] by patting and caressing her breasts in her bikini top, making him blush as red as anything and [[ChivalrousPervert demanding that she changes the subject]].
*** After the battle against Leliel Asuka visited Shinji in the hospital. She did not want him realizing she had come, but he spotted her anyway. Hurriedly she retreated, blushing as Shinji laughed.
** In one of the ''[[Anime/RebuildOfEvangelion Rebuild]]'' movies, Misato snaps at her ex Kaji that she is too busy to do anything, especially rekindling their romance. Kaji states that she would probably never find a new lover like him, to which she angrily questions why he should even care. He responds by [[HandsomeLech flashing a patented lady-killer smile straight at her]]. Cue Misato's momentary speechlessness and averted gaze with blush.
** The second film of the Rebuild series has a scene where Hikari approaches Asuka and shyly asks if she can sit with her at lunch. She's even blushing when asking it.
* Sara from ''Anime/OvermanKingGainer'' gets one when Gainer declares his love for her while in the middle of a battle against a mind-reading opponent, forgetting or unaware that all the stuff he says are being broadcast across ''the entire Exodus units and some''. Progresses to full-facial or full-body blush when she ran across what basically counts as ''an entire town'' and gets called out on it.
* ''Anime/PanzerWorldGalient'': In chapter 6, when another character talks [[TheHero Jordy]], about love, he gets his entire face bright red.
* Brock does this A LOT during the course of the ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'' series.
* Himeno of ''Manga/{{Pretear}}'' blushes a lot, but that's nothing new for a typical {{shojo}} heroine. A worse case is [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Hayate]], who displays great blushing skills while around Himeno, especially in the manga version.
* ''Anime/PrincessTutu'':
** Most of the characters display this at some point, but Fakir -- a brooding {{Jerk with a Heart of Gold}} — is probably the best at this out of the ''entire'' cast (yes, including the girls). There are moments in the show where his ENTIRE face glows bright red, and he's one of the darkest-skinned characters in the show! For a good example, check out [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/please_put_some_clothes_on_tv_tropes.jpg the picture]] from the PleasePutSomeClothesOn trope page.
** For blush coverage, you can't beat Ahiru. Her ''whole naked body'' went completely red once. Of course, for humour and frequency both, Fakir still comes out on top there.
* ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'': Ranma and Akane have done this in some of their romantic moments.
--> '''Genma:''' Oooo! You're ''blushing.''
--> '''Ranma:''' Grow up, Pop.
* Yomiko Readman of ''Anime/ReadOrDie'' does this twice in the OVA. Both times, it's as a result of fellow British Library agent Nancy Makuhari sneaking up behind her and pinching her cheeks, fiddling with her glasses or otherwise displaying some form of affection toward her. Needless to say, by the end of the series these two have hit pretty much every LesYay trope [[IncrediblyLamePun in the book.]]
* ''Manga/RosarioPlusVampire'':
** ''Manga/RosarioPlusVampire'' has Moka Akashiya, who easily blushes when around Tsukune. He could just say something completely random to her such as, "Really?" and she'll blush.'
** Moka nothing. Top blush in Rosa-Vam goes to [[DefrostingIceQueen Mizore]] [[AnIcePerson Shirayuki]], who may or may not up ''Manga/{{Karin}}''. Not only is she ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis Never. Seen. NOT. Blushing]]'', she is an abominable snowgirl. How her face gets ''that'' hot is a mystery.
* This is the default expression of ''everyone'' in ''Manga/{{Saikano}}''. Up to the point where the blush sometimes appears to be ''coming off character' faces'' and can occasionally get quite distracting. The overuse of luminescent blushing in ''Saikano'' leads to the strange effect, that it doesn't even indicate, if a character is ''really'' blushing or not. Only when the face of someone turns glaring red, you can tell that he is in an emotional state that would cause a Luminescent Blush (if it wasn't already there).
* ''Anime/SailorMoon'':
** The Inner Sailor Senshi, their leader Sailor Moon and her boyfriend Tuxedo Kamen/Mask, find out that the child they've been looking after is Moon and Mask's KidFromTheFuture. The parents-to-be blush so deeply that [[HighPressureEmotion steam appears over their heads]]. It doesn't help when Sailor Mars barks:
--->'''Sailor Mars''': WHAT DAY, WEEK, MONTH OR YEAR DID THIS HAPPEN??!!!
** Infamously in the ''Super S'' movie, after killing some {{Mooks}}, [[ButchLesbian Sailor Uranus]] questions whether their plans have good or bad intentions. [[LipstickLesbian Sailor Neptune]] points out that being a child forever is a terrible idea because "there are so many fun things to do as adults." Despite not twitching, Uranus [[DelayedReaction slowly]] blushes and then [[ChirpingCrickets awkwardly clears her throat]].
** Sailor Mercury is knocked over in a tight alleyway to the point in which her behind is sticking up in the air. Sailor Jupiter behind her [[PantyShot glances up her skirt]] [[LesYay notably for a long while]], whilst blushing and biting her hand.
* In Act 2 of ''Anime/SailorMoonCrystal'', Usagi blushes when she makes a mental note that her new acquaintance Ami is cute, and Ami, having been friendless, blushes whenever Usagi's affectionate, like when she hugs Ami effusively, tells her she's cuter when she smiles, and when she agrees to be friends.
* Nodoka of ''Manga/{{Saki}}'' gets these a lot, [[LesYay especially when she's with Saki]]. She also gets these when she's on a roll while chanelling her Nodocchi persona.
* This rather common in ''Manga/SakuraTrick''. It ''is'' a series about cute girls kissing cute girls...
* ''Manga/TheSeveringCrimeEdge'':
** Kiri has this expression on his face whenever he gets "excited" about cutting Iwai's hair.
** Iwai blushes often due to being easily flustered and shy.
* Kazumi Yoshida (which makes her very cute) whenever Yuji is around in ''LightNovel/ShakuganNoShana''. Shana doesn't lag too far behind, often coupled with her catch phrase. Especially in the S OAV.
* In the anime adaptation of ''Manga/{{Sketchbook}}'', the last episode, the shy Sora's entire face turns a luminescent red as her teacher compliments her artwork.
* ''LightNovel/{{Slayers}}'':
** Lina Inverse has been known to do this every now and then. The best scene was in a particular episode of ''Slayers NEXT'' when Lina and Gourry were talking about how long he would stay her protector. His response led to Lina's face shining brighter than her hair.
** Amelia in one scene from the same season does one when Zelgadis saves her and Martina from a mind-controlled horde of AxCrazy civilians. ''NEXT'' in general has quite a few of these, actually. Zelgadis himself gets several (especially in the [[OnceASeason cross-dressing episode]]); and [[spoiler:Zangulus does one at his wedding in the finale.]]
** One flashback in season 5 shows a human Zelgadis blushing when his great-grandfather Rezo touches his cheek and commends him for helping those he heals. The reason? He [[WellDoneSonGuy simply is happy being praised by someone so powerful and valued]].
* Go and watch any episode of ''Anime/SonicX'' where [[InterspeciesRomance Knuckles and Rouge]] are in the same place. Knuckles ''will'' do this at some point, either from anger or embarrassment (usually the latter). His muzzle matches his fur at least a third of the time she's around, for Chaos' sake!
* Makise Kurisu of ''VisualNovel/SteinsGate'' blushes extensively when her [[{{Tsundere}} dere side]] shows through, especially around Okabe. It's goddamn adorable. Okabe even does it himself a few times.
* Karin Koboku in ''Manga/SuperPig'' is known for this. In some episodes, her entire face turns blood red.
* Shy and timid Fumi from ''Manga/SweetBlueFlowers'' blushes extensively throughout most of the series, but especially so when she talks to a girl she likes. Peculiarly, the only other character who perhaps blushes even more is outgoing and energetic Haruka.
* This happens a few times in the OVA adaptation of ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'':
** At the beginning of the first episode, Lloyd goes completely red in the face after Colette compliments the necklace he gave her for her birthday, despite the fact he knew it wasn’t very well made, and admitted as such directly to her.
** Early in the Tethe’alla Arc, when Genis tries to strike up a conversation, he briefly goes completely red-faced.
** Near the end of Episode 4 of the Tethe’alla Arc, Lloyd compliments Sheena after she says she’ll stick with the group to take down Cruxis. She tries to [[BlatantLies back-pedal and say she’s only going along out of curiosity about Origin.]] [[ShipperOnDeck Zelos and Genis both take notice and start teasing.]]
* ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'':
** Even '''Kamina''' manifests a blush once. While he's preaching to Simon that [[HotBlooded he should defeat his hunger with fighting spirit]], Kamina's stomach growls as well. Cue Kamina saying "Uh... me too?" followed by a blush and a nervous laugh.
** In the final episode, Simon does a blush when Nia excitedly shows him her wedding gown. Why is it emotional? Because [[spoiler:just now he's coming back from having destroyed an entire fucking UNIVERSE to get her back]]. Yes, he loves her that much. The scene is powerful because the man who was running on concentrated {{Hot Blooded}}ness for the entire arc is now doing something as mundane as blushing.
** In the highschool AU ''Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann Guren Gakuenhen'' Yoko starts blushing when Kamina comments on how well she fills out the bikini she's wearing. He misinterprets her flushed face as a mere sunburn.
--->'''Kamina:''' Huh? Why's your face red? You sunburnt already?\\
'''Yoko:''' I suppose you're just being you...
* Karina/Blue Rose from ''Anime/TigerAndBunny'' has taken to developing luminescent blushes around Kotetsu once her crush on him goes from subtle to obvious enough that EveryoneCanSeeIt (except [[ObliviousToLove Kotetsu]]). Half of anything he does in her presence is liable to turn her red.
* Yami in ''Manga/ToLoveRu Darkness'' when she not want admit her new feeling for Rito during a SuspiciouslySpecificDenial speech.
* ''LightNovel/{{Toradora}}'''s [[{{Tsundere}} Taiga]] is prone to breaking out into one, especially where Yuusaku and (increasingly) Ryuuji are concerned. The full-body version occurs when [[spoiler: Ryuuji finally tells Taiga he loves her in the final episode's end credits epilogue]].
* ''Anime/TrueTears'': [[TheWoobie Noe]] when [[spoiler:Shinichirou]] confesses to her.
* Lucia from ''Manga/VenusVersusVirus'' gets these quite often when she's with Sumire, however Sumire almost ''always'' has one on, to the point that it's lampshaded.
* Appears all the time in ''Manga/WanderingSon''. It's essentially impossible to find a chapter of the manga where Nitori doesn't blush for at least one panel, and if she isn't blushing then someone else is.
* In ''Manga/WildFangs'', Mao has a really prominent blush after talking to so many girls all at once.
* ''Manga/WildRock'': Yuuen is prone to this.
* Used copiously and to great effect in ''Manga/TheWorldGodOnlyKnows''. [[{{Tsundere}} Haqua]] probably does it most often, and not just because she's present in more scenes.
* Mahiru Inami from ''Manga/{{Working}}'' has this constantly. It doesn't help that she's also always anxious about [[ApologeticAttacker uncontrollably]] [[CuteBruiser punching]] any men near her. When attempting to hand out a Valentine's Day gift, she gets so nervous she partially melts the chocolate she's holding.
* Yuri Katsuki of ''Anime/YuriOnIce'' is prone to this, especially towards his idol and coach, Victor. [[spoiler:A prominent example of this can be seen in episode 10, when he exchanges what are essentially engagement rings with Victor.]]
[[/folder]]
* In the ''Manga/AhMyGoddess'' episode "Ah! A Demon has Come and is Creating Calamity!", Mara turns Keiichi into a Honda Cub. When Belldandy and Urd turn him back, they forget that his clothes didn't change with him, leaving him naked. Urd has an amused look on her face, while Belldandy's entire face turns a deep pink.
* Everyone in ''Manga/AiYoriAoshi'', given that they are varying degrees of [[ShrinkingViolet shy]] in romantic situation. Particularly funny with [[TokenMiniMoe Chika]], since it has to show through her deep tan.
* ''Manga/AssassinationClassroom'':
** After not studying for his exams due to overconfidence and as a result dropping substantially, Karma is called on it by Koro-Sensei, causing him to break into one of these, and a pretty substantial one at that. The whole thing looks ridiculous as his entire face turns red, nearly same colour as his hair, so his whole head is bright red and this is one of only two times he blushes.
** Nagisa also does this. A notable example is when he is dressed up as a girl in a club and is obviously uncomfortable. Another good example is directly after, when it turns out he dressed up for nothing and everyone took photos.
** Kayano does this after Nagisa kisses her to snap her out of a rage.
** Korosensei himself does this whenever he is smitten with something. His face turns bright pink when he does it.
** Professor Bitch usually does it to seduce someone, but sometimes blushes genuinely when faced with Karasuma.
* In the first chapter / episode of ''Manga/AsteroidInLove'', when Mira goes on with the story between her and a boy called Ao many years ago, the blue-haired girl sitting next to Mira at the Earth Sciences clubroom starts blushing heavily. It is because of this trope the senpais Mari and Mikage suspect that other girl's involvement in Mira's story...
-->'''Mikage:''' Wanna tell us why you're blushing, Ao Manaka?
-->'''Mira:''' [[BigWhat EHHH!?]] You're [[UnsettlingGenderReveal him... or her?]]
* In the anime version of ''Manga/AttackOnTitan'', [[spoiler:Annie Leonhardt]] [[NotSoStoic has this expression]] while [[LaughingMad laughing]] and [[SlasherSmile grinning like mad]] [[spoiler:when she is rightly accused of being the Female Titan.]] This series managed to make even ''this'' trope [[PlayedForHorror creepy]].
* The [[TheQuietOne emotionally repressed Sakaki]] on ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh'' is quite prone to this, especially [[{{Moe}} when presented with]] [[CuteKitten something cute]].
* Most of the Yacht Club girls in ''LightNovel/BodaciousSpacePirates'' when confronted with sweets, especially if it's Chiaki (normally TheStoic) facing a [[RunningGag chocolate parfait]].
* This trope is used to show [[DefrostingIceQueen a breakthrough in Casca's cold and aloof personality]] in ''Manga/{{Berserk}}''. After her excursion with Guts, where they were stranded in the woods after a battle and he ends up saving her life twice, Casca begins to open up to reveal that [[SugarAndIcePersonality she really isn't that mean of a girl.]] The first major iceberg was broken when Guts playfully slapped her on the butt in front of all of their comrades, causing Casca's face to go red with embarrassment. From there, she starts blushing around Guts a lot more [[LoveEpiphany for other reasons...]]
** In the movie, when Griffith meets Charlotte for SexForSolace and starts it off with a ForcefulKiss, the virginal and pure princess is so surprised and aroused that she sports one of these on her face.
* ''Manga/BlackLagoon'':
** Revy does this after she realizes Rock was watching her show some kids how to aim with their popguns. [[{{Tsundere}} She immediately resorts]] to FreudianThreat if he ever tells anyone about it.
** Roberta (an even more badass ActionGirl on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge) does this when given a CooldownHug by her MoralityChain Garcia Lovelace.
* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'':
** Ichigo goes BRIGHT red when he first sees [[NakedOnArrival Yoruichi's nude human form]].
** Anime episode 262. When Haineko (Rangiku's zanpakuto spirit) meets a cute swordbeast named Narunosuke she blushes this way repeatedly.
* Li Syaoran of ''Manga/CardCaptorSakura'', who gives the title character a run for her money with the amount of screen time he spends as a human tomato. Syaoran's blushing potential can create shades surpassing tomatoes and even beetroots. ''Especially'' his blush when Sakura hugged him for the first time in the anime - he never managed to pull anything quite like ''that'' again.
* Misaka in ''LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex'' is prone to doing this when around Touma or when others point out or inquire about her feelings for him. Sometimes a combination of this, her tsundereism and Touma's density leads to really funny scenarios.
** In fact, seeing Misaka's reaction to Touma being mentioned is Kuroko's BerserkButton.
** At one point in the second season, the Misaka clones are having a minor argument over #19090 deviating from the others by reading a women's magazine. When Touma innocently makes #10032 (aka Misaka Imouto) remember one of the tips in the magazine she heard from the others[[note]]the tip says that wearing a ring a man buys you on your left ring finger means you're on the winner side; Touma mentioned that #10032 should make herself visually different from the others to be more recognizable by using an accessory, "like a necklace or a '''ring'''"[[/note]], she instantly blushes.
* Otome from ''Manga/CherryJuice'' sported one of these that covered her entire face when she awoke to find that she had fallen out of bed at some point during the night, and had spent the remainder of the time sleeping on top of her half-naked step-brother Minami. Thereafter nearly every interaction between the two involved this to some degree.
* ''VisualNovel/{{Clannad}}'':
** A few characters blush that way in ''VisualNovel/{{Clannad}}''. Nagisa gets it most often out of all the characters.
** Pretty much everyone does this at least once; even [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G74w6B15cOM&t=1m15s Sunohara.]] [[{{Tsundere}} Kyou]] manages a near-instantaneous full-face glowy blush in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbPaekU2Bh0&t=1m11s this scene.]]
* [[OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent Yuki]] from ''Manga/DanceInTheVampireBund'' gets these quite often, whether it is [[UnluckyChildhoodFriend confessing her feelings to her classmate]] or finding the director of her school reading her [[YaoiFangirl Boys Love work-in-progress]]. Of course neither said classmate (Akira) nor said director (Mina) are immune themselves.
* Himeko of ''Manga/DestinyOfTheShrineMaiden'', a lot. Although given that she's an innocent {{Moe}} ShrinkingViolet in a SchoolgirlLesbians anime, this should surprise no-one.
* Appears as early as chapter one of ''Manga/DontBecomeAnOtakuShinozakiSan'', where it was Akina's reaction hearing from the school nurse that Kaede came to the nurse's office with teary eyes, really worried about Akina's condition after she fainted from a lack of sleep. Akina blushed knowing Kaede cared a lot about her, cementing her resolve to get deeper into the otaku pit to get close to her.
* Done with ''Vegeta'' of all people in ''Anime/DragonBallGT'': after shaving off his mustache [[DaddysGirl at his daughter's insistence,]] he goes ComplimentFishing about his appearance to Bulma, Goten, and Chi-Chi, who all [[DidYouGetANewHaircut pretend to not see anything different about him,]] until he loses his temper and screams at them before storming out of the room, blush-zone glowing from a combination of genuine offense that they didn't notice and embarrassment at himself for getting into such a ridiculous situation. Extra hilarious because this is the same guy who, some 25-odd years earlier, [[CharacterDevelopment tried to destroy the planet and kill these characters' families and would never have given the tiniest damn what a lowly human thought of him.]]
* Monta is pretty much the only character who does this in ''Manga/Eyeshield21'' (and that's [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters saying something]]), in response to any and all [[IDidntMeanToTurnYouOn innocent platonic affection]] from Mamori. And the poor kid tries so hard to be macho...
* Happens in ''Manga/FullMetalAlchemist'' to [[spoiler: [[WackyMarriageProposal Edward when he proposes]] to Winry]].
* ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic'':
** Sōsuke from ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic'' does this a few times -- most notably during ''Anime/FullMetalPanicFumoffu''. [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Sousuke_blush.jpg He does it once]] when he's defending Kaname against some pathetic Yakuza, and she threatens them that she'll call Bonta-kun over to beat them up until they cry. Of course, Sōsuke feels very embarrassed because... well, ''he's'' Bonta-kun, and he thinks she doesn't know. Another time is when Kaname dresses like a [[ChristmasCake hot, older housewife]], and pretends that she's having an affair with him. He doesn't recognize her, and [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Sousuke_blush2.jpg feels extremely shy and embarrassed]], turning [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Sousuke_blush3.jpg bright red]].
** In the first few episodes of ''FMP'' it's used to show that Kaname is lying when she claims she doesn't find NewTransferStudent Sōsuke attractive. That and the occasional LaughingMad scene.
* ''Manga/FutureDiary'':
** Yuno is often like this whenever she talks to Yuki. Considering she's a walking {{Stalker with a Crush}}-{{Yandere}} combo, it comes off just a ''tad'' creepy. Not just that, but she also gets the blush when '''killing''' for her Yuki. Talk about creepy.
** Yuki himself tends to have this reaction to Yuno whenever she goes PantsFree or [[ShamelessFanserviceGirl casually changes clothes in front of him]].
** Minene does this in the flashback in Episode 10 when Nishijima tells her that she looks cute. Cue her trying to "wipe" the redness off her face. [[spoiler:She does this again, in a much later episode, when Nishijima proposes to her.]]
* ''Manga/{{Genshiken}}'':
** Ohno, the subverted AloofDarkHairedGirl of ''Manga/{{Genshiken}}'' appears to have a constant blush in both the {{Manga}} and {{Anime}} versions. It remains even during most of her {{Cosplay}}ing sessions, but her embarrassment seems to feed her confidence. Ogiue on the other hand hates the fellow club {{Otaku}}s, in typical Type A {{Tsundere}} behaviour, but blushes profusely when [[YaoiFangirl thinking of her beloved yaoi]]. Ogiue's normally implacable and stoic facade makes this quite significant of her internal conflicts over her {{Otaku}} nature, rather than some attempt at a throwaway {{Moe}} visual gag.
** Ohno also had this when [[YaoiFangirl her yaoi hobby was found out]], but she was more concerned of what their impression would be in regards to the type of men she was attracted to (bald men), rather than the yaoi itself.
* Leopard in ''Anime/TheGirlWhoLeaptThroughSpace'' manages to pull one of these off despite being a large computer.
* While it is commonplace in ''Anime/GundamBuildFighters'', Episode 23 took the cake by applying this trope ''on a Mobile Suit'', having Ricardo Fellini's [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Wing Gundam]] blush when grappled from behind by his girlfriend Kirara's [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam0083StardustMemory Gerbera Tetra]]. After the episode aired, animation director Masami Obari [[LampshadeHanging tweeted]] that "[[NeverLiveItDown now I have to live with having added blush marks to a Mobile Suit for the rest of my life...]]"
* ''Manga/GunslingerGirl'': Brainwashed and emotionally restrained Henrietta does this a lot (it's even shown in the TitleSequence) when interacting with her "handler", Giuseppe, due to her PrecociousCrush. Even uptight cyborgs like Triela and Claes blush if their handler makes physical contact with them. Petrushka/Petra is a second generation cyborg and thus subject to lesser amounts of brainwashing, but her FieryRedhead persona means she does this a lot too.
* Misaki from ''Manga/HanaNoMizoShiru'' blushes really, really, '''really''' frequently.
* ''Manga/HanaukyoMaidTeam La Verite'' episode 2. During Taro's dream, Taro and Mariel both blush to demonstrate their attraction to each other.
* In ''Manga/HanjukuJoshi'', Yae is very prone to this, since she's a relatively straight-laced NaiveNewcomer at a [[OneGenderSchool girls' school]] whose students have [[ShamelessFanserviceGirl somewhat relaxed standards of modesty.]]
* ''Manga/HappyHappyClover'': Mallow is seen doing this twice in the series. The first is when she introduces herself to class as a new student in the first story and again in "Mallow's Heart Sours" in Volume 5 after learning [[spoiler: that Shallot likes her.]]
* [[{{Moe}} Mikuru Asahina]] from ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'' pulls this off several times in the series. The most dramatic example occurs in [[TheMovie The Dissapearance Of Haruhi Suzumiya]] when [[OnlySaneMan Kyon]] offers proof of his being from an [[AlternateUniverse Alternate Universe]] by telling her how she has a star shaped mole on her left breast.
* Akane in ''[[VideoGame/HarukanaruTokiNoNakaDe Harukanaru Toki no Naka de - Hachiyou Shou]]'' does this occasionally, often in response to Tomomasa's teasing. A few of [[CastFullOfPrettyBoys the boys]] are quite capable of out-blushing her, though -- particularly Tenma, and ''especially'' Eisen.
* Haruka in ''LightNovel/HarukaNogizakasSecret''. She's more prone to this than most characters, spending a good half of each episode red in the face.
* ''Manga/HayateTheCombatButler'':
** Nagi gets these, particularly when she thinks she's been given a chance to be alone with Hayate and especially strong when she thinks it's a chance to give him a kiss.
** The other characters have all gotten chances at having them as well.
** Hayate in particular gets an absolutely epic one in the manga at least when [[spoiler: Maria (in 'disguise') and Hayate are riding the clock tower elevator and Maria teases him by asking if he is in love with the StudentCouncilPresident (i.e. Hinagiku). Hayate's reaction consists of literally this, much stammering, apparently trying to deny it by listing all of Hinagiku's good qualities and finally being unable to speak coherently.]]
* [[{{Tsundere}} Integra]] ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}'' [[BelligerentSexualTension towards Alucard]] when he's being an ''idiot''.
* ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'':
** Many characters have this permanently. In fact, the blush is often overlaid with a bright pink one when especially embarrassed or sick - see [[{{Tsundere}} Britain]] with a cold, or [[PerpetualFrowner Germany]] whenever [[TheDitz Italy]] [[HoYay is in]] [[ShipTease the room.]]
* Though everyone blushes at one time or another in ''VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry'', Rena and Keiichi tend to (manga only) blush a lot, both in standard form and due to stress/fear,
* Hiroki of ''Manga/IThinkOurSonIsGay'' often gets flushed when the issue of sexuality is raised, regardless of context. He's supposed to be ClosetGay, but the blushing-induced NoPokerFace means [[TransparentCloset most of his family know his sexuality]], but would [[SecretSecretKeeper rather wait for him to come out]].
* ''Anime/TheIdolMaster'' - Played for laughs. Chihaya blushes when Miki enters the bath with her and Haruka on the Live For You OVA, though it isn't as much an embarassed blush and [[ACupAngst more]] [[GreenEyedMonster an envious]] [[BuxomIsBetter one.]]
* In ''Manga/InuYasha'', Inuyasha, Kagome, and Sango, all blush quite often, especially the latter since she constantly has to deal with the shameless flirting and wandering hands of her LoveInterest [[ChivalrousPervert Miroku]].
* In ''Anime/JoseeTheTigerAndTheFish'', Josee the classical tsundere main heroine does this a lot, particularly when Kana asks if Tsuneo is her boyfriend.
* This trope gets used heavily in ''Manga/JunjouRomantica''. Misaki and Hiroki usually get the worst of it.
* Shiro in ''Anime/{{K}}'' does this ''all'' the time. Examples include when [[HoYay Kuroh half-hugs him as he's rescuing him from HOMRA,]] and when he first meets [[PleasePutSomeClothesOn Neko.]] Kuroh gets the blush too, whenever he talks about his late Master Ichigen.
* Yurie from ''Anime/{{Kamichu}}'' does this a lot, especially when it has to do with Kenji. Her younger brother Shoukichi also tends to do this around Miko.
* The titular character of ''Manga/{{Karin}}'', who is [[TropeCodifier Luminiscent Blush incarnate]], deserves special mention. She's so [[{{Moe}} easily embarrassed]], that it's hard to catch her while ''not'' blushing. Other characters of the series even comment on it. [[FridgeBrilliance Of course, it could just be all the blood she has]].
* Ryuko Matoi from ''Anime/KillLaKill'' does this whenever she's wearing her [[ClothesMakeTheSuperman superpowered]] SailorFuku Senketsu. Understandable, considering how downright {{Stripperiffic}} it is.
* ''Manga/KimagureOrangeRoad'': Episode 2. [[IdiotHero Kyosuke]] [[OfficialCouple and]] [[{{Tsundere}} Madoka]] are washing dishes together when their hands accidentally brush together. Quickly they broke contact and kept on washing dishes, lowering their heads and avoiding eye contact. Their faces were completely red as they did so.
* Yui from ''Manga/KOn'' does this a lot, but especially notable is the one she shows when Mio attempts to call her by her given name.
* Kanna Aoyagi, the protagonist of ''Manga/KoeDeOshigoto'' has her blushing face more often than not. Anyone who steps in the recording booth gets one pretty quickly as well. This is only natural, considering they are recording dialog for H-games.
* ''Manga/LuckyStar'':
** The above picture is of ''Manga/LuckyStar'''s resident {{Tsundere}} Kagami, who often plays this trope straight. At one point, she went beyond that to display a ''full body blush'' after "accidentally" opening a [[{{Yaoi}} suspicious]] [[{{Doujinshi}} manga]] at Comiket. Of her [[LightNovel/FullMetalPanic favorite series]].
** Kanata blushed as Sou reminisced of their time together. That's right, ghosts can blush too.
* ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha'':
** Fate, socially uncomfortable former DarkMagicalGirl that she is, gets these often.
** Yuuno also gets this one; he's a boy, but he poses as a WeaselMascot.
** Nanoha doing this to Chrono was nearly a RunningGag towards the end of the first series (sadly, only during the first series). What can we say, she's ''adorable'' when she smiles!
** Einhart also gets these from time to time, such as when Nove takes her by surprise in the police station waiting room.
* ''Mazinger'' universe:
** In ''Anime/MazingerZ'' and its sequels -''Anime/GreatMazinger'' and ''Anime/UFORoboGrendizer'' this trope was much more prevalent in the manga than in the anime (where the male heroes usually were {{Chaste Hero}}s). In the manga episodes, pretty much all teen characters (including Kouji Kabuto himself) blushed brightly at one point or another, either because his/her LoveInterest was praising them/flirting with them or because someone had suggested they were one couple. In ''Anime/{{Mazinkaiser}}'' also was usual seeing Kouji or Sayaka -- or some another character -- blushing furiously.
** Original manga's episode 8 was a good example. Kouji and Sayaka [[AccidentalPervert accidentally saw at each other naked]] [[HotSpringsEpisode in the hot springs]]. Their faces were fully red afterwards.
* This occurs constantly in ''Manga/MeAndMyBrothers'' to many of the characters showing deeper emotion, when they are not sporting their more lighthearted [[BlushSticker Blush Stickers]], which are used even more so. This is most effective to the reader when it is happening to Miyashita Sakura and her oldest stepbrother [[WholesomeCrossdresser Masashi]], [[spoiler:who later [[BrotherSisterIncest harbour romantic feelings for each other]]]].
* ''Manga/MermaidMelodyPichiPichiPitch'' has its cases of these. [[TheHero Lucia]] sometimes gets her entire face red, usually when thinking of Kaito.
* The English title of ''Manga/MissMachiko'' is ''The Shame of Miss Machiko'' (Machiko Teacher). Every episode involves the main character (or her female students) being placed in embarassing situations, which involves lots of blushing.
* The otherwise VERY [[WarIsHell serious]] second season of ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam00'' has Allelujah blushing twice:
** First when [[spoiler:he's rescued from prison]] and meets up with Lockon[[spoiler:'s twin brother]] who the others failed to tell him about; Allelujah is [[KilledOffForReal understandably]] VERY surprised at Lockon's presence, then he looks from Lockon to the nonplussed Tieria and back...and then he blushes and apologizes for his outburst. [[NotSoStoic Tieria]]'s smiling response is that he hasn't changed but shouldn't.
** Second when [[spoiler:Mileina]] asks whether Allelujah and [[spoiler:Marie]] are a couple; both respond with simultaneous blushes.
* ''Manga/MonochromeFactor'': [[HoYay Haruka blushed upon looking at Akira]] in the first episode.
* Standard reaction of women when they see The Medicine Peddler in ''Anime/{{Mononoke}}''.
* In ''Manga/MotherKeeper'', Ricalna gets this in the first chapter when his adoptive dad, Graham, pats his head and tells him he's a son he's extremely proud of.
* Happens so often to the characters from ''Manga/MyBalls'' that you start to wonder if there's a fever going around.
* ''Anime/MyHime'':
** [[{{Tsundere}} Akira]] gets one while trying to convince Takumi that he didn't see her save him from an Orphan, and that she is actually a "secret ninja of the school". Her face not only turns completely red, but ''also'' has {{Blush Sticker}}s on it.
** Happens to other characters as well, especially Mai and Natsuki.
* In ''Anime/MyOtome'', Arika does a full body blush when kissed on the hand by a Prince.
* ''Franchise/{{Naruto}}'':
** Hinata whenever she so much as looks at Naruto, primarily in Part I.
** Sakura also sported a bright blush several times. Examples include when Naruto faced Zabuza for the first time, or when she met Naruto after the TimeSkip and he seemed more mature...[[IdiotBall until he proved that he wasn't]]. Then [[DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale she proceeded to punch the crap out of him]]. Most of the blushes from Sakura were [[SingleTargetSexuality directed towards Sasuke]], though also primarily in Part I before his FaceHeelTurn.
** In ''Manga/{{Boruto}}'' both Boruto and Sarada have gotten this [[ShipTease in relation to each other]].
* ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'':
** Negi just has that effect on people. [[ChickMagnet Especially girls]]. Asuna, Setsuna, Nodoka and Yue in particular warrant mention.
** As does [[spoiler:the fake Asuna (Shiori)]], who blushes a hell of a lot more and a lot deeper than [[spoiler:the ''real'' one]] ever did. And that's saying something. [[spoiler:When she's unmasked at the end of Ch. 283, her face combines this trope, CryCute, and a mixture of attraction to and fear of Negi to make her [[{{Moe}} irresistably adorable]].]]
** Chachamaru spends her ''whole'' Pactio chapter in this state. The ''reasons'' for it range from shyness, to [[TheWoobie fear and sadness]], to what can only be called post-orgasmic haze. Even better, she's a RobotGirl.
* ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'':
** Shinji and Asuka are prone to these almost whenever they interact. Probably because Shinji is a shy boy and Asuka is a {{Tsundere}}.
*** In one episode, Asuka starts scolding Shinji during school time for forgetting their lunches, while he tries to get his side in. Toji tosses off a remark that they're arguing LikeAnOldMarriedCouple. Cue [[http://i.imgur.com/lhV8mJX.jpg double luminescent blush]] (they HAD kissed not many days earlier), [[http://i.imgur.com/D8UMdeN.jpg then simultaneous denial]] in perfect stereo.
*** In episode eight Asuka blushed when she realized Shinji was taking a peek at her while she was changing clothes.
*** In episode 9 Shinji noticed Asuka was sleeping by his side. He stared at her face for a while, blushing profusely as he did so.
*** Shinji gets another (and [[SomethingElseAlsoRises something else]]) when he overhears [[GirlOnGirlIsHot questionable behaviour between Misato and Asuka]] in the female area of the hot springs.
---->'''Shinji:''' ''(whilst cringing and submerging his blushing face in the water)'' [[UnusualEuphemism Thermal expansion!]] How embarrassing!!
*** Asuka flirts with Shinji by a swimming pool at one point by showing off her new bikini and "teaching" him about [[MemeticMutation thermal expansion]] by patting and caressing her breasts in her bikini top, making him blush as red as anything and [[ChivalrousPervert demanding that she changes the subject]].
*** After the battle against Leliel Asuka visited Shinji in the hospital. She did not want him realizing she had come, but he spotted her anyway. Hurriedly she retreated, blushing as Shinji laughed.
** In one of the ''[[Anime/RebuildOfEvangelion Rebuild]]'' movies, Misato snaps at her ex Kaji that she is too busy to do anything, especially rekindling their romance. Kaji states that she would probably never find a new lover like him, to which she angrily questions why he should even care. He responds by [[HandsomeLech flashing a patented lady-killer smile straight at her]]. Cue Misato's momentary speechlessness and averted gaze with blush.
** The second film of the Rebuild series has a scene where Hikari approaches Asuka and shyly asks if she can sit with her at lunch. She's even blushing when asking it.
* Sara from ''Anime/OvermanKingGainer'' gets one when Gainer declares his love for her while in the middle of a battle against a mind-reading opponent, forgetting or unaware that all the stuff he says are being broadcast across ''the entire Exodus units and some''. Progresses to full-facial or full-body blush when she ran across what basically counts as ''an entire town'' and gets called out on it.
* ''Anime/PanzerWorldGalient'': In chapter 6, when another character talks [[TheHero Jordy]], about love, he gets his entire face bright red.
* Brock does this A LOT during the course of the ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'' series.
* Himeno of ''Manga/{{Pretear}}'' blushes a lot, but that's nothing new for a typical {{shojo}} heroine. A worse case is [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Hayate]], who displays great blushing skills while around Himeno, especially in the manga version.
* ''Anime/PrincessTutu'':
** Most of the characters display this at some point, but Fakir -- a brooding {{Jerk with a Heart of Gold}} — is probably the best at this out of the ''entire'' cast (yes, including the girls). There are moments in the show where his ENTIRE face glows bright red, and he's one of the darkest-skinned characters in the show! For a good example, check out [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/please_put_some_clothes_on_tv_tropes.jpg the picture]] from the PleasePutSomeClothesOn trope page.
** For blush coverage, you can't beat Ahiru. Her ''whole naked body'' went completely red once. Of course, for humour and frequency both, Fakir still comes out on top there.
* ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'': Ranma and Akane have done this in some of their romantic moments.
--> '''Genma:''' Oooo! You're ''blushing.''
--> '''Ranma:''' Grow up, Pop.
* Yomiko Readman of ''Anime/ReadOrDie'' does this twice in the OVA. Both times, it's as a result of fellow British Library agent Nancy Makuhari sneaking up behind her and pinching her cheeks, fiddling with her glasses or otherwise displaying some form of affection toward her. Needless to say, by the end of the series these two have hit pretty much every LesYay trope [[IncrediblyLamePun in the book.]]
* ''Manga/RosarioPlusVampire'':
** ''Manga/RosarioPlusVampire'' has Moka Akashiya, who easily blushes when around Tsukune. He could just say something completely random to her such as, "Really?" and she'll blush.'
** Moka nothing. Top blush in Rosa-Vam goes to [[DefrostingIceQueen Mizore]] [[AnIcePerson Shirayuki]], who may or may not up ''Manga/{{Karin}}''. Not only is she ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis Never. Seen. NOT. Blushing]]'', she is an abominable snowgirl. How her face gets ''that'' hot is a mystery.
* This is the default expression of ''everyone'' in ''Manga/{{Saikano}}''. Up to the point where the blush sometimes appears to be ''coming off character' faces'' and can occasionally get quite distracting. The overuse of luminescent blushing in ''Saikano'' leads to the strange effect, that it doesn't even indicate, if a character is ''really'' blushing or not. Only when the face of someone turns glaring red, you can tell that he is in an emotional state that would cause a Luminescent Blush (if it wasn't already there).
* ''Anime/SailorMoon'':
** The Inner Sailor Senshi, their leader Sailor Moon and her boyfriend Tuxedo Kamen/Mask, find out that the child they've been looking after is Moon and Mask's KidFromTheFuture. The parents-to-be blush so deeply that [[HighPressureEmotion steam appears over their heads]]. It doesn't help when Sailor Mars barks:
--->'''Sailor Mars''': WHAT DAY, WEEK, MONTH OR YEAR DID THIS HAPPEN??!!!
** Infamously in the ''Super S'' movie, after killing some {{Mooks}}, [[ButchLesbian Sailor Uranus]] questions whether their plans have good or bad intentions. [[LipstickLesbian Sailor Neptune]] points out that being a child forever is a terrible idea because "there are so many fun things to do as adults." Despite not twitching, Uranus [[DelayedReaction slowly]] blushes and then [[ChirpingCrickets awkwardly clears her throat]].
** Sailor Mercury is knocked over in a tight alleyway to the point in which her behind is sticking up in the air. Sailor Jupiter behind her [[PantyShot glances up her skirt]] [[LesYay notably for a long while]], whilst blushing and biting her hand.
* In Act 2 of ''Anime/SailorMoonCrystal'', Usagi blushes when she makes a mental note that her new acquaintance Ami is cute, and Ami, having been friendless, blushes whenever Usagi's affectionate, like when she hugs Ami effusively, tells her she's cuter when she smiles, and when she agrees to be friends.
* Nodoka of ''Manga/{{Saki}}'' gets these a lot, [[LesYay especially when she's with Saki]]. She also gets these when she's on a roll while chanelling her Nodocchi persona.
* This rather common in ''Manga/SakuraTrick''. It ''is'' a series about cute girls kissing cute girls...
* ''Manga/TheSeveringCrimeEdge'':
** Kiri has this expression on his face whenever he gets "excited" about cutting Iwai's hair.
** Iwai blushes often due to being easily flustered and shy.
* Kazumi Yoshida (which makes her very cute) whenever Yuji is around in ''LightNovel/ShakuganNoShana''. Shana doesn't lag too far behind, often coupled with her catch phrase. Especially in the S OAV.
* In the anime adaptation of ''Manga/{{Sketchbook}}'', the last episode, the shy Sora's entire face turns a luminescent red as her teacher compliments her artwork.
* ''LightNovel/{{Slayers}}'':
** Lina Inverse has been known to do this every now and then. The best scene was in a particular episode of ''Slayers NEXT'' when Lina and Gourry were talking about how long he would stay her protector. His response led to Lina's face shining brighter than her hair.
** Amelia in one scene from the same season does one when Zelgadis saves her and Martina from a mind-controlled horde of AxCrazy civilians. ''NEXT'' in general has quite a few of these, actually. Zelgadis himself gets several (especially in the [[OnceASeason cross-dressing episode]]); and [[spoiler:Zangulus does one at his wedding in the finale.]]
** One flashback in season 5 shows a human Zelgadis blushing when his great-grandfather Rezo touches his cheek and commends him for helping those he heals. The reason? He [[WellDoneSonGuy simply is happy being praised by someone so powerful and valued]].
* Go and watch any episode of ''Anime/SonicX'' where [[InterspeciesRomance Knuckles and Rouge]] are in the same place. Knuckles ''will'' do this at some point, either from anger or embarrassment (usually the latter). His muzzle matches his fur at least a third of the time she's around, for Chaos' sake!
* Makise Kurisu of ''VisualNovel/SteinsGate'' blushes extensively when her [[{{Tsundere}} dere side]] shows through, especially around Okabe. It's goddamn adorable. Okabe even does it himself a few times.
* Karin Koboku in ''Manga/SuperPig'' is known for this. In some episodes, her entire face turns blood red.
* Shy and timid Fumi from ''Manga/SweetBlueFlowers'' blushes extensively throughout most of the series, but especially so when she talks to a girl she likes. Peculiarly, the only other character who perhaps blushes even more is outgoing and energetic Haruka.
* This happens a few times in the OVA adaptation of ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'':
** At the beginning of the first episode, Lloyd goes completely red in the face after Colette compliments the necklace he gave her for her birthday, despite the fact he knew it wasn’t very well made, and admitted as such directly to her.
** Early in the Tethe’alla Arc, when Genis tries to strike up a conversation, he briefly goes completely red-faced.
** Near the end of Episode 4 of the Tethe’alla Arc, Lloyd compliments Sheena after she says she’ll stick with the group to take down Cruxis. She tries to [[BlatantLies back-pedal and say she’s only going along out of curiosity about Origin.]] [[ShipperOnDeck Zelos and Genis both take notice and start teasing.]]
* ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'':
** Even '''Kamina''' manifests a blush once. While he's preaching to Simon that [[HotBlooded he should defeat his hunger with fighting spirit]], Kamina's stomach growls as well. Cue Kamina saying "Uh... me too?" followed by a blush and a nervous laugh.
** In the final episode, Simon does a blush when Nia excitedly shows him her wedding gown. Why is it emotional? Because [[spoiler:just now he's coming back from having destroyed an entire fucking UNIVERSE to get her back]]. Yes, he loves her that much. The scene is powerful because the man who was running on concentrated {{Hot Blooded}}ness for the entire arc is now doing something as mundane as blushing.
** In the highschool AU ''Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann Guren Gakuenhen'' Yoko starts blushing when Kamina comments on how well she fills out the bikini she's wearing. He misinterprets her flushed face as a mere sunburn.
--->'''Kamina:''' Huh? Why's your face red? You sunburnt already?\\
'''Yoko:''' I suppose you're just being you...
* Karina/Blue Rose from ''Anime/TigerAndBunny'' has taken to developing luminescent blushes around Kotetsu once her crush on him goes from subtle to obvious enough that EveryoneCanSeeIt (except [[ObliviousToLove Kotetsu]]). Half of anything he does in her presence is liable to turn her red.
* Yami in ''Manga/ToLoveRu Darkness'' when she not want admit her new feeling for Rito during a SuspiciouslySpecificDenial speech.
* ''LightNovel/{{Toradora}}'''s [[{{Tsundere}} Taiga]] is prone to breaking out into one, especially where Yuusaku and (increasingly) Ryuuji are concerned. The full-body version occurs when [[spoiler: Ryuuji finally tells Taiga he loves her in the final episode's end credits epilogue]].
* ''Anime/TrueTears'': [[TheWoobie Noe]] when [[spoiler:Shinichirou]] confesses to her.
* Lucia from ''Manga/VenusVersusVirus'' gets these quite often when she's with Sumire, however Sumire almost ''always'' has one on, to the point that it's lampshaded.
* Appears all the time in ''Manga/WanderingSon''. It's essentially impossible to find a chapter of the manga where Nitori doesn't blush for at least one panel, and if she isn't blushing then someone else is.
* In ''Manga/WildFangs'', Mao has a really prominent blush after talking to so many girls all at once.
* ''Manga/WildRock'': Yuuen is prone to this.
* Used copiously and to great effect in ''Manga/TheWorldGodOnlyKnows''. [[{{Tsundere}} Haqua]] probably does it most often, and not just because she's present in more scenes.
* Mahiru Inami from ''Manga/{{Working}}'' has this constantly. It doesn't help that she's also always anxious about [[ApologeticAttacker uncontrollably]] [[CuteBruiser punching]] any men near her. When attempting to hand out a Valentine's Day gift, she gets so nervous she partially melts the chocolate she's holding.
* Yuri Katsuki of ''Anime/YuriOnIce'' is prone to this, especially towards his idol and coach, Victor. [[spoiler:A prominent example of this can be seen in episode 10, when he exchanges what are essentially engagement rings with Victor.]]

* One rather off-putting moment in ''VideoGame/ShadowHeartsCovenant'' comes at the Fountain of Sukune, when Saki asks Karin if she has feelings for Yuri. A LuminescentBlush ''blinks'' on and off her face.

* An interesting variation in ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}''; due to the [[AllTrollsAreDifferent trolls']] differently colored AlienBlood, most trolls' {{Luminescent Blush}}es are colors other than red/pink. In [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004633 this strip]], for example, the {{Blue Blood}}ed Vriska can be seen with blue patches under her eyes.

* Otome from ''Manga/CherryJuice'' sported one of these that covered her entire face when she awoke to find that she had fallen out of bed at some point during the night, and had spent the remainder of the time sleeping on top of her half-naked step-brother Minami. Thereafter nearly every interaction between the two involved a LuminescentBlush to some degree.

** Ohno, the subverted AloofDarkHairedGirl of ''Manga/{{Genshiken}}'' appears to have a constant blush in both the {{Manga}} and {{Anime}} versions. It remains even during most of her {{Cosplay}}ing sessions, but her embarrassment seems to feed her confidence. Ogiue on the other hand hates the fellow club {{Otaku}}s, in typical Type A {{Tsundere}} behaviour, but blushes profusely when [[YaoiFangirl thinking of her beloved yaoi]]. Ogiue's normally implacable and stoic facade makes the LuminescentBlush quite significant of her internal conflicts over her {{Otaku}} nature, rather than some attempt at a throwaway {{Moe}} visual gag.
** Ohno also had a LuminescentBlush when [[YaoiFangirl her yaoi hobby was found out]], but she was more concerned of what their impression would be in regards to the type of men she was attracted to (bald men), rather than the yaoi itself.
