History Main / TsurimeEyes

* Mona in ''VideoGame/GenshinImpact'', a prideful, knowledgable astrologist, as well as a {{Tsundere}}, has these kinds of eyes.

* Eleanor Campbell from ''Manga/VictoriEmmaAVictorianRomancenRomanceEmma'', who has rather the same personality as Mio.

* NACHERRY duo Natsumi Murakami and Chiemi Tanaka both have these eyes.

** Kagami Hiiragi, (in the above picture) is the resident tsundere. In fact, her magnificent tsurime is among her most recognizable features, making her impossible to mistake for her twin sister [[TheDitz Tsukasa]]. And of course, her alternate-world doppelganger/{{Expy}}, Kyou Fujibayashi from VisualNovel/{{Clannad}}.

** Yugi has shifted over to this eye type in the [[Anime/YuGiOhTheDarkSideOfDimensions Dark Side of Dimensions]] anniversary movie.

* Hinaki Yano and Natsumi Murakami both have these eyes.

%%* ''Manga/Reborn2004'': Tsunayoshi shares Yugi's above noted trait when he goes into Hyper Deathperation mode.

* Yakumo, Eri and Itoko from ''Manga/SchoolRumble''. In Yakumo's case the meaning behind the trope is zigzagged: her childhood personality is much more in line with the typical personality type for this trope which may imply that she intentionally shifted her personality to one more in line tareme eyes.

* Aoi from ''Manga/{{Working}}''.

A particular style of drawing eyes in {{manga}} and {{anime}} where the outer corners slant upwards, ending in a distinct sharp point, used in contrast to the traditional {{Moe}} soft drooping style, [[TaremeEyes Tareme]]. Tsurime symbolizes strong will, arrogance, or pride in a character. Most noticeable in female designs (since it plays against the stereotype) and is common tell-tale sign of {{Tsundere}}s, {{Emotionless Girl}}s, [[SugarAndIcePersonality Sugar and Ice]] types, and {{Action Girl}}s. It's also a common (although not guaranteed) trait of the {{Seme}} in the BoysLoveGenre. Otherwise, tsurime are quite prevalent in male characters because they convey strong, reliable masculinity.

* Chikane Himemiya of ''Manga/DestinyOfTheShrineMaiden'', [[SchoolgirlLesbians appropriately]] countered by [[{{Moe}} Himeko]]'s TaremeEyes. In both cases the manga makes stronger (although less consistent) use.

* Eleanor Campbell from ''Manga/VictorianRomanceEmma'', who has rather the same personality as Mio.

& Rika Kawai in ''Anime/WonderEggPriority''.

* A simplified version appears in ''{{Franchise/Anpanman}}''. While most of the donburi characters have simple round eyes with pupils, Unadonman's eyes are almond shaped and point upwards. Even though nearly all of the donburi characters regard their donburi as number one, Unadonman takes it one step higher. He won't accept ''any'' food as being better than unadon, and looks down upon other characters. It's very common for episodes featuring him to [[BreakTheHaughty knock him down a peg]] for thinking this.

* ''Anime/KazemakaseTsukikageRan'': Ran usually sports these. On the other hand, so did an EvilMatriarch.

* [[SplitPersonality Inner Moka]] from ''Manga/RosarioToVampire'' sports these, as opposed to [[TheChick Outer Moka]].

* A lot of feline ''Franchise/{{Jewelpet}}s'' have this. Usually it's because CatsAreMean, but in some cases it's to give the character a cool/mysterious feeling (as in the case of Lapis and Granite). Diana is a special case; in ''Anime/{{Jewelpet 2009}}'' she was a major villain (AND a cat), and thus had this eye shape. Following seasons have made her either a sympathetic AntiVillain or a generically heroic character, thus, she has had TaremeEyes ever since the 2nd season.

* Hinaki Yano has these eyes.

* Nina Wong in ''Anime/MaiOtome''.

* Reika from ''LightNovel/GoshuushouSamaNinomiyaKun''.

** [[LadyOfWar Olivia]] Milla [[GoodIsNotNice Armstrong]] has tsurime eyes.

* ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThreeHouses'': Lysithea and Felix have these, showcasing their more serious personalities, especially next to Hilda and Sylvain respectively, who have TaremeEyes.

* One of the new characters introduced in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragon'', Athena, has these.
* Adults (meaning those in their thirties or older) in ''VideoGame/YggdraUnion'' have eyes drawn like this. Also [[HeroAntagonist Gulcasa]].

* ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'':
** [[GoodIsNotSoft Link]] in many of his [[LegacyCharacter appearances]], as does Zelda herself.
** ''VideoGame/HyruleWarriorsAgeOfCalamity'' shows that the younger Impa [[IdenticalGrandson looks very similar]] to how her granddaughter Paya will look like in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild''. One major difference, however, is that Impa has tsurime, which help emphasize her more confident ActionGirl characterization in contrast with her ShrinkingViolet granddaughter.
* Palutena from ''VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising'' onward, has a notable NonStandardCharacterDesign; compared to the other characters' anime-esque eyes, hers are more realistic-shaped; this carries over to her ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' appearance. The ''Palutena's Revolting Dinner'' animation made by ''Creator/StudioShaft'' usually depicts her eyes [[https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sgL6dl9W0RA/maxresdefault.jpg either tareme or in-between]]; however, [[https://i.ytimg.com/vi/x7V7FdWxX_k/maxresdefault.jpg when they become tsurime]], it's a sign she is done with others, and that it's [[LetsGetDangerous time to show what she can actually do]]. Her reveal trailer for ''3DS/Wii U'' (also made by ''Shaft'') also [[https://i.imgur.com/I2Dkpi0.png depicts her with tsurime eyes]] during most of the trailer (but not the actual game).

* In ''Manga/HunterXHunter'' [[ProfessionalKiller Former child assassin]] and Tsundere Killua has these. In contrast, Gon has TaremeEyes that match his more innocent, child-like personality.

* Nagi of ''Manga/{{Kannagi}}''.
