Kind Red Eyes could belong to a [[Heroic Albino]], but just as often they belong to a [[Friendly Neighborhood Vampire]], or may even be a literally ''[[Incredibly Lame Pun|Red]]'' [[Red Herring|Herring]]. Sometimes they're just pretty, or colorful, and don't have any relevance to the story. |

A subtrope of [[Technicolor Eyes]]. Contrast [[Red Eyes Take Warning]], with which it can ''occasionally'' overlap (especially if a character is a [[Tsundere]] or [[Badass]]). In short, the character's eyes may be red, but their eye color's lack of villainous connotation is played absolutely straight. If the character is a [[Red Headed Heroine]], expect [[Curtains Match the Window]]. |

* [[Sleepwalker]]'s eyes are a subversion in that most people are freaked out by them, although that may be because they're compounded like an insect's. A few people, such as Pike and Alyssa Conover, are able to look deeper and see the kindness within them. |

* Hanae Mitsukawa in ''[[Pretty Cure Perfume Preppy]]'' has red eyes in civilian form, but she's a [[Shrinking Violet|shy and fragile]] [[Meganekko]]. When she becomes Cure Tangerine, her eyes [[Kaleidoscope Eyes|turn orange]] to match her theme color. |

* Ogata Mia from ''[[Futari wa Pretty Cure Blue Moon (Fanfic)|Futari wa Pretty Cure Blue Moon]]'', though she starts out as an obstacle to the Cures, is a sweet red-eyed girl who becomes a friend and member of the core team even if she doesn't fight. [[Mysterious Watcher|Dawn]] also counts; although she's [[Red Eyes Take Warning|powerful and intimidating]], she's a good guy. Since the story goes with the ''[[Pretty Cure]]'' tradition of [[Curtains Match the Window|Earth natives having matching hair and eyes]], the only red-haired character without red eyes is [[Eyes Of Gold|Kainatrol]], easily the most evil character. |

* Like his Earth-616 counterpart, [[Ultimate Sleepwalker (Fanfic)|Ultimate Sleepwalker's]] glow a bright red. Some of the people Sleepwalker has helped out and who've gotten a good look at his eyes often feel strangely reassured by them, even when they know they should be scared. |

* Buwaro from ''[[Slightly Damned]]'' is the absolute embodiment of this trope. I mean, just look at [http://www.sdamned.com/2009/11/11152009/ those big, cute, blood-red puppy-dog eyes!] |
