History Main / SweatDrop

* ''Webanimation/{{TETRISD}}'': The hero has one of this when they see the amount of tetris blocks they have to avoid in ''2''.

* Message bubbles with sweat drops inside them also appear in ''[[VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiSuperstarSaga Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''.
** 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.

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

%%** Also, even [[AnimatedArmor Alphonse]] gets these often.

%%* ''Manga/{{Dragonball}}'' does it often.

* Sweat Drops appear regularly in the ''Anime/SailorMoon'' anime. TheNineties dubbed version sometimes cut them out, but these edits were inconsistent, occasionally even having one instance of it removed and another one left intact within the same episode.
* This pops up in ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'' on occasion, including on things that shouldn't be able to sweat...like knives.
* ''[[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.
%%* Used fairly regularly on ''Anime/{{Hamtaro}}''.
%%* Used on ''Manga/OnePiece'' quite frequently, including on objects which ''aren't even alive''.
* While nothing new in ''Anime/PrettyCure'', sometimes a collective sweat drop happens, where Cures, villains and monsters get one. The situation is ''that'' confusing.
** ''Anime/HealinGoodPrettyCure'' even has an anatomical skeleton having one at one point.
* Often appears in ''Manga/GhostHunt,'' once again without any regard for which direction the character is facing.
* ''Manga/SeitokaiYakuindomo'': Shino at one point managed to cause ''a pair of deer'' to SweatDrop.
* Done regularly in ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'', usually to show exasperation.
* ''Manga/{{Inuyasha}}'': The one character who is never given a sweat drop moment (not even once) is Sesshoumaru.
* Happens often in ''Anime/DragonBallZ'', especially the anime, with not even serious characters like Piccolo and Vegeta being immune. There are at least two inanimate-object variants, as well--once when Gohan blows a whole cake into his relatives' faces when trying to blow out his birthday candles, we get an outside shot of their house with a sweat-drop on the building itself; and much later on, when Mr. Satan is bragging about how he'll defeat Majin Buu, his house, a cactus and a rock all get ever-enlarging sweat-drops the more he brags.
* Frequently happens during silly situations in ''Manga/RurouniKenshin''. Among the main cast, Aoshi and Saitou are the only ones who don't experience this (although Saitou makes up for it by being a [[TheComicallySerious comically serious]] DeadpanSnarker).
* ''Literature/{{Shimoneta}}'': Tanukichi's reaction in chapter 10, after he wrestles Oboro to the floor and ends up with his foot between her legs -- except he feels [[spoiler:a bulge]], so he uses his foot [[CrotchGrabSexCheck to double-check]], [[DudeLooksLikeALady confirming his suspicion]]. Two smaller sweatdrops appear next to the first one.

* In ''VideoGame/BreathOfFireIII''' and IV hitting [=NPCs=] and a few objects with some characters' on map abilities can make them react in this way.

* Characters in ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'' occasionally do this.
* Prier from ''VideoGame/LaPucelle'' does this so many times she has her own SweatDrop animation.

** Its successor, ''VideoGame/Persona4'', has this, as well. Copious sweatdrops are doled out in rapid succession in the infamous "King's Game" scene.
** 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.
