Purple Eyes: Difference between revisions

* Yin from ''[[Darker Than Black]]'', who interestingly is also Blind.

* Ellis from ''[[El Cazador de la Bruja]]''.

* Urd from ''[[Ah! My Goddess]]''. Very much [[Dark-Skinned Blond|not]] [[Hair Colors|an albino]].

* Shinigami Asato Tsuzuki from ''[[Yami no Matsuei]]''. Interestingly [[Purple Is the New Black|not]] a Variant Visage; they really are purple, with the implication Tsuzuki was shunned in his hometown by supersitious people.

* When the ''[[Prétear]]'' manga was made into an anime, Sasame went from having blond hair and brown eyes to [[White-Haired Pretty Boy|white hair]] and purple eyes. Considering the connotations of both tropes, it was probably an intentional hint that {{spoiler|in this version Sasame would [[Face Heel Turn|betray the knights]].}}

* Russia of ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' sports these, as do Austria, Canada, Finland, Iceland, and Latvia. But is interesting to note that with the exception of Austria, all of the aforementioned nations were originally depicted with blue eyes in their designs.Russia and Prussia only somewhat fit the badass theme, with Canada and Finland being more [[Badass Adorable]] / [[Beware the Nice Ones]] / [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]].

** Another thing to note is that, with the exception of Austria, most of the purple-eyed countries are considered to be "Northern" or "Arctic" nations. This has lead to some connections between their eyes and the Northern Lights in the fandom. In Canada's case, his eyes seem to have been originally purple (in the manga, at least), but had been changed to blue for the anime. <ref> This, along with his [[Adaptation Dye Job|reddish-blond hair being changed to dark blond]], only serves to make him resemble America more than ever. Poor thing.</ref>

* [[Sailor Moon|Sailor Mars and Sailor Saturn]]. Mars' are only purple in the manga, while the anime they're charcoal black with purple highlights to match her hair.

* [[Green-Skinned Space Babe|Ricki Sunflare]] from ''[[For Good]]'', as a green-skinned alien, possesses prominent violet eyes. She is depicted as the wunderkind of the cadets and performs a [[Sherlock Scan]] on the protagonist.

** The enigmatic Fringe woman Zomega also has one violet eye - her other eye was lost and replaced with a cybernetic red eye. She is half human, but her eye color is actually one of her human traits, as her alien heritage possesses red eyes.

 

 

* Half-Elves in [[Chronicles of the Emerged World]] have violet eyes.

* This is the only physical trait of Anthony Fremont which is described in Jerome Bixby's short story ''[[It's a Good Life]]''.

* ''[[The Camulod Chronicles]]'' by Jack Whyte feature Dierdre of the Violet Eyes, although a childhood illness left them grey.

* The ruling Queens in the ''[[Septimus Heap]]'' series mostly have violet eyes. It is very distressing to Princess Jenna that her eyes never turn green to match her (adopted) brothers'.

* Purple eyes in the [[Golden Sun]] series seem to be unique to [[Blow You Away|Jupiter]] [[Shock and Awe|adepts]] (purple is the color [[Color Coded for Your Convenience|associated with the wind element]]-- if they don't have purple eyes, expect [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|purple hair]]). Ivan, [[Curtains Match the Window|his sister Hama]], and his daughter Karis all have them. Sheba consistantly has them in game, but they're consistantly [[Green Eyes|green]] in official artwork. Their true color is [[Internet Backdraft|hotly debated]].

* ''[[Final Fantasy II]]'' has main antagonist [[The Emperor]], with very pretty purple eyes (he's always had them, but considering the graphical format of the game, it's been hard to tell until [[Dissidia]]). In both games he is a very powerful sorcerer and [[The Chessmaster|chessmaster]], so it fits the trope...but it's also likely to have been chosen simply because of how well it goes with the rest of his mostly-golden-with-purple-accents character design.

* Charme the Thief in ''[[Recettear]]'' combines this with [[Curtains Match the Window]] (and possibly [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]). In keeping with other examples {{spoiler|[[Fallen Princess|she's royalty]].}}

* Count Waltz of ''[[Eternal Sonata]]'' has violet eyes, matching the rest of his purple ensemble.

** The queen of the fairies in ''[[The Crystal Shards]]'' has them.

** In ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn|Kirbys Epic Yarn]]'', {{spoiler|King Dedede and Meta Knight}} [[Mind Control Eyes|gain these]] when under Yin-Yarn's control.

 

 

== Visual Novels ==

* Sakura Matou in ''[[Fate/stay night]]''. {{spoiler|This is revealed to be because of the "conditioning" imposed upon her by Zouken in order to make her into the successor of the Matou brand of magecraft.}}

* Hanako from ''[[Katawa Shoujo]]'' has one. The other was consumed by a fire when she was little.
