* Blue-eyed characters in ''[[Baccano!]]!'' usually fit into one of two groups: harmless and ([[Black and Gray Morality|relatively]]) innocent ([[The Ingenue|Eve]], [[The Ditz|Isaac]], [[Token Mini-Moe|Carol]], [[Damsel in Distress|Mary]]) or completely off their rocker ([[Ax Crazy|Ladd]], [[Mad Love|Lua]], [[Talkative Loon|Graham]], [[Psychopathic Manchild|Christopher]]).

* ''[[Saint Seiya]]'': several characters, for various reasons. All three of the Gods (Athena, Poseidon, and Hades), Hyoga for being [[An Ice Person]], and most of the Gold Saints. Strangely adverted in the Manga with Aquarius Camus who, despite being [[An Ice Person]] as well, had red eyes.

* Eda from [[Black Lagoon]] hides her baby blues behind a pair of sunglasses, [[Sunglasses at Night|even at night]]. The reason for this becomes obvious ([[Animated Adaptation|particularly in the show]]) because they're such a brilliant blue that [http://homepage.mac.com/uhsieh/Blog/Black_Lagoon/02/09.jpg they practically glow].

* Kiba's human form from ''[[Wolf's Rain]]'' has eyes that look either blue (icy, piercing variant) or blue-gray. It denotes his [[Chosen One]] status, since the other wolves keep their [[Eyes of Gold|amber eye color]] even in human form.

Concept art also shows that [[Babysitter From Hell|Syphile]] of all people had these before she was [[Red Eyes, Take Warning|tainted]], which might serve to emphasize just how much [[Break the Cutie]] she went through afterward.

* [[Lackadaisy Cats|Roark 'Rocky' Rickaby]]. Despite the comic itself being sepiatoned for flavor, color portraits of the Rocky character and of Rocky the cat show them both to possess blue-within-blue eyes. In the case of Rocky, this definitely falls under the purview of 'insane-blue' in terms of character.

* ''[[Homestuck]]'': John Egbert, initially according to [[Word of God]] and later confirmed in-comic through a dramatic zoom-in on his eyes in response to {{spoiler|seeing his dead father}}. They match his text colour. Similarly, in accordance with their [[Alien Blood|blood colours]], Vriska and Equius would have developed blue eyes had they reached adulthood {{spoiler|and not been [[Killed Off for Real]]}}; their ancestors, Mindfang and Darkleer, had them.
