Line 183:
* [[Manipulative Bastard|Azula]] of ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' has this down to a fine art: when she strikes down Iroh when he's not looking, when she gets Zuko to join her by saying [[More Than Mind Control|it's his choice]], when she attacks Aang mid-[[Transformation Sequence]], and when she reveals the contingency plan after figuring out Aang is alive from Zuko pausing and saying [[No One Could Survive That|there was no way he could have survived]].
** The picture that used to be above comes from the finale, while Azula is suffering from her [[Villainous Breakdown]]. As time goes on, it degenerates into a full-on [[Slasher Smile]].
** In "The Boiling Rock", Zuko gives one of his own after {{spoiler|unbolting the cooler}}.
*** Psychotic smirks must run in the family, as [[Evil Overlord|Ozai]] is also a master at this. He displays several throughout the Day of Black Sun and [[Grand Finale|Sozin's Comet]].
* ''[[Danny Phantom]]'' has [[Big Bad]] Vlad Masters who cracks one of these every so often throughout the series, often in front of the main hero as much as he does in secret.
