History Main / SweatDrop

* Ditto for the ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' TV series. Including from an ''ATM machine'' about to be eaten by Cyborg after [[ItMakesSenseInContext demanding it to dispense sauce]].
* ''WesternAnimation/TotallySpies'' does it quite frequently, as does many of Marathon's shows.

* This is one of the symptoms of SILAS (Sue-Influenced Localized Anime Syndrome) from the WebOriginal/ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum. Agent Lapis (who was originally from a fanfic of the ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'' anime) also does this a lot, complete with the sweat drop getting her shirt wet.

See "Plewds" in the BriffitsAndSqueans article for the Western equivalent. Also see CrossPoppingVeins and OverlyNervousFlopSweat.

Confusion, exasperation, embarrassment and similar emotions manifest as an unusually large sweat drop that appears on the temple or the back of the head. Sometimes the "drop sweat" symbol can even apply to a group of people as well. Either a gigantic sweat drop appears somewhere in the middle of the crowd, or a few big drops are scattered around (the latter variation is also common in comic books).

* ''[[VideoGame/HarukanaruTokiNoNakaDe Harukanaru Toki no Naka de - Hachiyou Shou]]'' sometimes employs this for comical scenes. One instance in particular, in the {{OAV}} episode "Kokoro no Yukue", has the drop appear during a SuperDeformed scene at the end of the pictured dot-by-dot VisibleSilence. It then falls to the bottom of the screen. As a solid object.

* This is seen quite often in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfHeroesTrailsOfColdSteel'', pretty much whenever the characters are embarrassed or confused by something.

* Happens fairly often in ''VideoGame/Persona3''. Notable examples are during SEES's reaction to Junpei's melodramatic "Believe It Or Don't" flashlight-under-face ghost story attempt, or in the ''Persona 3: FES'' rerelease, Elizabeth misguidedly offering one million yen coins to the "fountain god" at the mall, to which a nearby young couple sitting on a bench let out two huge sweatdrops.

** In ''VideoGame/Persona5'', any time characters are suddenly worried, their character model will have 3 little drops of water pop out from their forehead. any time they're embarrassed, an oversized drop of water pops up on the side of their temple instead.

** In Mario Party 7, there's a mini gamed called "Apes of Wrath" which starts out with a cutscene depicting the 2 competing characters eating apples. The camera pans up to some monkeys who are angry at the characters for eating their apples. Both participating characters get sweatdrops.
* These occasionally appear in the VideoGame/TalesSeries, such as in ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'', used for a {{Pictorial Speech Bubble}}s when Genis and Lloyd are embarrassed about Colette accidentally breaking a wall.

* "WesternAnimation/HiHiPuffyAmiYumi" uses the giant sweat drop version very frequently. [[TwoGirlsAndAGuy Ami, Yumi, and Kaz]] are the most frequent victims since they are the main characters.
