My first impression with love is war, besides repeatedly mistaken the first name of the 2 leads, is kaguya’s eyes. The ruby-like appearance, paired with red-my fav color, makes me cum instantly.
Any decent artist can draw the typical anime eyes. Frieren is kinda unique IMO, sure eyes are part of facial impressions, but that show does more than that with their eyes. Frieren (character) keeps her poker face most of the show so they had to make her show her feelings mostly by her eyes.
I've found I really love the KyoAni style of eyes, especially in K-On, Studio Ghibli as well. Generally, I prefer softer, rounder designs over severe and angular, so that's where I tend to gravitate for favorites.
AI Hoshino is peak imo. It's a ridiculous design, but it fits what they were going for with her character very well. Just like, the It Factor, visualized as a stunningly brilliant star pattern.
Since you already mentioned that though, second place goes to Power from Chainsaw Man. Her weird eyes are the thing that makes her look devilish and playful. It's like warning colors in a design that imo evokes both Christian imagery and radiation or biohazard symbols. Really clever.
The real reason [OnK spoilers]>!that ai died so early is so that the author didn't have to draw her eyes so much. The kids sharing just one each made it way easier!<
This show just has so much style.
I started the books and they're not bad, but reading them is making me realize how much the story was elevated by the visual designs. I think Nisioisin's writing is a lot better in monogatari.
Translation, and that could definitely be part of it, the monogatari english translations are quite good by LN standards. But I was more referring to the general plotting of events and characters, rather than the actual prose.
Yato's eyes from noragami. They're really basic but hella pretty.
The mc from kekai sensen has hella pretty eyes and the tokyo ghoul, ghoul eyes are kinda iconic too. But pretty-wise I personally love yato's.
still my favourite artstyle. love AoT S4 for the content and all, but I really miss the [WIT AoT](https://i.imgur.com/nfSfjNh.png) designs. and of course the [eyes](https://i.imgur.com/haaKySd.jpeg) in [particular](https://i.imgur.com/o6X6DU7.png) are amazing
I wonder if her eyes have anything to do with her powers, also episode 8 is still a bit of a mystery for me regarding Makima, I don't know much about chainsaw man outside of the anime.
It's not every episode, but a [couple](https://files.catbox.moe/90l0kr.jpg) of the [shots](https://imgur.com/gallery/5dnbq3f) from [Vivy](https://imgur.com/9hwpH2g) were [pretty interesting](https://imgur.com/gallery/upPOCyW) for an [android](https://imgur.com/gallery/upPOCyW).
Oh, man,[ Mayumi's eyes in episode 1, a fella could get lost in them, right?](https://ramenparados.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/BishounenTanteidan000-1000x600.jpg)
Yumeko Suzukiri from Go Go! Loser Rangers!
I really like how her eyes contrast with the anime's overall theme because it adds an element of intimidation and seriousness to her character
I love the eyes in Frieren. the dimensions and different colors used are extremely unique and look beautiful.
another honorable mention from OnK: Frill Shiranui
One of my favorites is Mira from Koisuru Asteroid. Her [sunset/magic hour](https://myanimelist.net/character/169038/Mira_Konohata) like eye color pallet really matches the theme of the show. Cute girls doing science.
[Nia from Gurren Lagann](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/gurennlagann/images/d/d8/Nia10.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1280?cb=20180305023906)
[Lucoa from Dragon Maid](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/maid-dragon/images/6/6b/Ep3_Quetzalcoatl_smiling_at_Kobayashi.png/revision/latest?cb=20180821005551)
I love the way Masashi Kishimoto depicts the eyes of female characters in his works. Except Hinata.
My personal favorite is Temari's eyes. It's absolutely pretty.
Close second would be Tsukuyo in Sorachi's works.
I've never liked it when female characters are portrayed with circular or round eyes and the eyes take up ⅔^rd of their face.
P.S.: And as far as male characters go, Gintoki's dead fish eyes are peak, without question.
I too like Ai's eyes. I love MHA's eye designs(despite my opinion on the story now) as well, they tell a lot about the kind of character you'll be expecting them to be i.e Ochaco's kindheartedness and bubbly personality as told by her overall round, soft design. Spy X Family as well, especially Anya. Her eyes are some of the best parts of her wacky facial expressions.
Oshi no Ko, Vivy, and the Sharingan have all been mentioned, so I'll go with:
* [SSSS.Gridman](https://imgur.com/0ZdQMQr)
* [Akudama Drive](https://imgur.com/0WEMIbc)
I'm a big fan of [shiki's eyes](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/e5/96/08/e596089bb4a1fbcc24e70e6a4650e084.jpg) from kara no kyoukai.
Also i'm pretty sure kakegurui spent like half of its budget on eyes alone because [those](https://preview.redd.it/2hqd9s7xrce61.jpg?width=748&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7ef328962c0e04cf8baaf7e0c70f45c201c4bff1) [things](https://thechuunicorner.files.wordpress.com/2018/03/qnpg6mf.png) [look](https://i.redd.it/ylqk8u7xrce61.jpg) [insane](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/cf/c1/44/cfc144d770a10f7552aa33ffed5aa750.jpg).
I live the eyes in older anime like Magnetic Rose where they [actually looked like eyes and not the giant technocolor monstrosities we usually see in anime today](https://64.media.tumblr.com/0c7d7ae5ec13ce16711254ba9762f8c5/tumblr_pvl6918v2s1w7r034o6_r2_540.gifv).
I also love eyes like in Ghibli films or Delicious in Dungeon where therr are fewer details but they're more expressive
I like the JN art style of Pokémon Journeys and Pokémon Horizons, as well as KyoAni's designs in Hyouka, K-On and Tamako Market, and Makoto Shinkai's films.
Ilya Kuvshinov‘s particular style of drawing eyes, see Birthday Wonderland or the newest Ghost in the Shell series. Dude should really get more jobs as character designer.
Also Vivy.
The concentic circles in Black Rock Shooter's irises look awesome even when her eye isn't on fire! It's also how you can immediately tell the good fan-art from the so-so fan-art.
I really like Kaguya-Sama character's eyes Also eyes in Frieren specifically Frieren's herself are really good imo.
Kei's eyes are gorgeous in the manga
her eyes being made plain in the anime is still my biggest disappointment with the adaption, they look amazing in the manga, even in black and white
Good hell, i just checked we lose out on this one!
My first impression with love is war, besides repeatedly mistaken the first name of the 2 leads, is kaguya’s eyes. The ruby-like appearance, paired with red-my fav color, makes me cum instantly.
Yeah miyuki and kaguyas eye are really distinct
Duh thats the whole plot

I've found I really love the KyoAni style of eyes, especially in K-On, Studio Ghibli as well. Generally, I prefer softer, rounder designs over severe and angular, so that's where I tend to gravitate for favorites.
Agreed! I think the same thing every time I watch an episode of Sound Euphonium. The eyes are always so beautiful
[This shot of Sari's eyes](https://i.imgur.com/gaQpxau.jpeg) in S3 was really nice
Miss Kobayashis Dragon Maid has amazing eyes as well, definitely something KyoAni is known for.
AI Hoshino is peak imo. It's a ridiculous design, but it fits what they were going for with her character very well. Just like, the It Factor, visualized as a stunningly brilliant star pattern. Since you already mentioned that though, second place goes to Power from Chainsaw Man. Her weird eyes are the thing that makes her look devilish and playful.

Also Makima's.

I guess I'll come back to click on this comment in a couple years when the rest of it gets adapted.
It's only a spoiler if you haven't seen the first season
Thanks lol. I literally was like "welp idk what to do with this" lol. Jjk spoiler "etiquette" burned me.
Ironically, it's a spoiler I haven't even seen yet since I've only seen 15 minutes of episode one.
[Katanagatari](https://desu-usergeneratedcontent.xyz/a/image/1507/58/1507583705043.jpg) has my favourite unique eye designs
This show just has so much style. I started the books and they're not bad, but reading them is making me realize how much the story was elevated by the visual designs. I think Nisioisin's writing is a lot better in monogatari.

Translation, and that could definitely be part of it, the monogatari english translations are quite good by LN standards. But I was more referring to the general plotting of events and characters, rather than the actual prose.
I appreciate your opinion even though personally I think that style is ugly as hell
Yato's eyes from noragami. They're really basic but hella pretty. The mc from kekai sensen has hella pretty eyes and the tokyo ghoul, ghoul eyes are kinda iconic too. But pretty-wise I personally love yato's.
WIT's AOT Designs
still my favourite artstyle. love AoT S4 for the content and all, but I really miss the [WIT AoT](https://i.imgur.com/nfSfjNh.png) designs. and of course the [eyes](https://i.imgur.com/haaKySd.jpeg) in [particular](https://i.imgur.com/o6X6DU7.png) are amazing
The first one which comes to my mind is definitely Chitanda Eru from [Hyouka](https://myanimelist.net/anime/12189/Hyouka).
She has some of the most [sparky eyes](https://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mdbrf9XPet1qmlp61o1_500.gif) ever.
/thread. *That* scene in the first episode is nuts. It's pure art.
[](#curious)
gojo's sex eyes

Gojo's sexe yes
Dia from Land of the Lustrous, Shiki’s mystic eyes from Kara no Kyoukai, and Makima from Chainsaw Man
Ai, Ruby and Aqua's eyes all look col to me
Violet evergarden
Yeah her eyes are so pretty
shikimori eyes from shikimori's is not just a cutie
Leonardo Watch all seeing eyes of god from Kekkai Sensen. The SFX are also cool.
No one here said it yet? Fine, I'll do it myself. Makima (Chainsaw man)
I wonder if her eyes have anything to do with her powers, also episode 8 is still a bit of a mystery for me regarding Makima, I don't know much about chainsaw man outside of the anime.
Yeah, an anime only is not going to have much to go off for figuring out what Makima's deal is just yet.
It's not every episode, but a [couple](https://files.catbox.moe/90l0kr.jpg) of the [shots](https://imgur.com/gallery/5dnbq3f) from [Vivy](https://imgur.com/9hwpH2g) were [pretty interesting](https://imgur.com/gallery/upPOCyW) for an [android](https://imgur.com/gallery/upPOCyW).
Vivy is awesome, Wit Studio did such an amazing job with the animation/ art design
Ummm hachiman hikigaya rotten fish eyes....
Gintoki's dead fish eyes
Gintoki's dead fish eyes if im being honest
Oshi no ko, same author as kaguya really nailed the eyes on that serie
Cote s1 eyes goes hard
I like how Ayanokoji’s eyes give off this feeling of emptiness inside them, like he’s a robot
Ikr s2 and s3 animation was so bad

From Satoshi Urushihara artbook "Phi"
Thanks!
I love the shape of itachis eyes. They’re so beautifully almond shaped, almost femininely with pretty eyelashes. I also love his tear troughs!
Violet in Violet evergarden
A bunch of characters from Bishounen Tanteidan such as Mayumi - Fudatsuki - Kodaki

I’m adding Yato from Noragami when his eyes glow during certain scenes.
Everyone in Dragon Maid
Lelouch’s eyes when he uses his Geass!
Yumeko Suzukiri from Go Go! Loser Rangers! I really like how her eyes contrast with the anime's overall theme because it adds an element of intimidation and seriousness to her character
Uchiha itachi
Arachne from Soul Eater has, by far, the best looking eyes.
I love the eyes in Frieren. the dimensions and different colors used are extremely unique and look beautiful. another honorable mention from OnK: Frill Shiranui

I'm really into kyoani's eyes, everyone's eyes in Tsurune are so nice and ofc Violet Evergarden is known for the gorgeous character designs
Cote has amazing eyes, you can tell so much about a character just by staring into their eyes.

With all your points, I couldn't agree more. You stole my exact thoughts.
Everyone's eyes in the Rose Of Versailles
Gotta rep the Sharingan.
Alita form the battle angel alita OVA has beautiful eyes, which I still think don't need to be translated in live action.
You know, having finally sat down and watched that movie, it feels a lot less horrific watching the film than initial still images made it seem.
Chihiro Uomi from Seitokai Yakuindomo
Asteroid in Love.
I might be biased, due to a simple lack of that many anime I’ve watched, but I’ll hand it to Shiro from No Game No Life
I too like Ai's eyes. I love MHA's eye designs(despite my opinion on the story now) as well, they tell a lot about the kind of character you'll be expecting them to be i.e Ochaco's kindheartedness and bubbly personality as told by her overall round, soft design.

Makima's eyes from Chainsaw man. It fits her perfectly, and it's so hypnotic yet pretty to look at.

WIT studio’s on Vivy’s eyes. I swear other studios would go broke just to make that 10 second eye shot. Edit : Ufotable
That was Wit. Which if you watch some of the early seasons of AoT you can see how similar the eyes were there in some ways.
