* Walter Dornez, loyal retainer to the Hellsing family in ''[[Hellsing (Manga)|Hellsing]]'' wears a monocle. It goes into [[Scary Shiny Glasses]] mode when he's ready to kick undead ass.

Line 156:
* Wally B. Feed of ''[[Monkey Island 2 Le Chucks Revenge (Video Game)|Monkey Island 2 Le Chucks Revenge]]'' wore one. It was a kind of [[Running Gag]] that he was constantly losing it, and unable to [[Blind Without'Em|do anything without it]].
* Sparda from ''[[Devil May Cry (Video Game)|Devil May Cry]]'' used to have a monocle as part of his attire. It's one-way and tinted purple.
* The twin bosses Lechku and Nechku in ''[[Okami (Video Game)|Okami]]'' isn't satisfied with just wearing monocles, but they also wear top hats and wield canes. They are also {{spoiler|'''GIANT DEMONIC CLOCKWORK OWLS''' (who may or may not be [[Shout
