[[File:kagami-tsurime.jpg|link=Lucky Star (Anime)|right|The smart, savvy and [[Deadpan Snarker|harsh]] [[Tsundere]] [[Sibling Yin
Line 7:
Note that the "me" in "tsurime" actually means "eyes" in Japanese. [[Department of Redundancy Department|We just enjoy being redundant.]]
For something vaguely similar in western media, see [[Clint Squint]]. See also [[Good Eyes, Evil Eyes]].
Not to be confused with [[Tsundere]], though tsunderes commonly sport tsurime.
Its opposite is [[Tareme Eyes]].
{{examples
'' This is an East Asian media only trope. Please do not put Western examples here.''
Line 24:
* Let's not forget our reality warping God [[Haruhi Suzumiya]], as well as most of the cast with the exception of Mikuru Asahina, Kyon's sister, and Emiri Kimidori.
* Nina Wong in ''[[Mai-Otome]]''.
* [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo|Chikane Himemiya]] of ''[[Kannazuki no Miko]]'', [[Schoolgirl Lesbians|appropriately]] countered by [[Moe Moe|Himeko]]'s [[Tareme Eyes]]. In both cases the manga makes stronger (although less consistent) use.
* Male examples: [[The Lancer|Yamato]], [[Kid Samurai|Iori]], and [[The Atoner|Ken]] from ''[[Digimon Adventure]]'' and ''[[Digimon Adventure 02]]''.
* And again with [[Defrosting Ice Queen|Ruki]] and [[The Smart Guy|Jianliang/Henry]] in [[Digimon Tamers]].
* In [[Dragonball Z]]. Vegeta and his son, Trunks, sport these. If one of the Son males show this, it's sign that they've become ''truly'' pissed (Especially notable when they transform into [[Super Mode|Super]] [[Super
* ''[[Azumanga Daioh (Manga)|Azumanga Daioh]]'': Unsurprisingly Kagura, Unsurprisingly or not Sakaki, suprisingly not Yukari, Yomi or Tomo.
* Nagi from ''[[Hayate the Combat Butler (Manga)|Hayate the Combat Butler]]''
Line 68:
* Ruby, Green (the boy), and Platinum Berlitz from ''[[Pokémon Special]]''.
** In the anime, Jessie and James and their rivals, Butch and Cassidy.
* Urd is ''[[Ah! My Goddess (Manga)|Ah My Goddess]]'' is [[media:[[Normal Urd]].JPG|depicted this way]], as opposed to the [[Tareme Eyes]] design of her rather more innocent sisters. Episode 13 includes a [[media:[[Moe Urd]].JPG|humorous sight gag]] where she temporarily gets big [[Moe]] eyes while imitating Skuld.
* Sae from ''[[Hidamari Sketch]]'' has them, however the [[Puni Plush]] art style makes it less conspicuous.
* In ''[[Moe Anthropomorphism|Afghanis-tan]]'', [[Eagle Land|Meriken]] has some [http://sites.google.com/site/rubbersoul1967/Meriken.jpg pretty impressive ones].
Line 94:
* [http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/1592/vlcsnap2011111711h41m17.png Barnaby] from ''[[Tiger and Bunny]]''. [[Tomboy|Tomboyish]] [[Bokukko|Pao-Lin]] and [[Everyone Looks Sexier If French|Agnes]] also sport tsurime. Oddly enough, these three are [[Green Eyes|Green Eyed]] -- Barnaby has emerald-green eyes, Pao-Lin's are a dark shade of lemon-green, and Agnes's are olive-green.
* ''[[Kazemakase Tsukikage Ran]]'': Ran usually sports these. On the other hand, so did an [[Evil Matriarch]].
* [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold|Ban]] [[Tsundere|Mido]] of ''[[Get Backers]]'' has narrow Tsurime behind his purple shades, which provides a sharp contrast to his partner [[The Messiah|Ginji]]'s wide, cheerful [[Tareme]] and further emphasizes the differences between their personalities. When Ginji loses himself to his [[Super
* [[Dark Magical Girl|Kyouko]] from ''[[Puella Magi Madoka Magica (Anime)|Puella Magi Madoka Magica]]'' is the one person who actually has some shape to her eyes in a series otherwise full of people with [[Tareme Eyes]].
* [[Windaria (Anime)|Windaria]] [[Badass Princess|Veronica]]'s and [[The Vamp|Selenia]]'s are noticiably sharper and up pointed than [[Housewife|Marie]]'s.
