In larger budget productions, there's sometimes a dedicated animator just for the lips of characters, due to the squash-and-stretch aspect of the face deforming on a cartoon character. In cheaper animation, artists will use tricks to minimize the amount of distortion to the face, so you just animate a mouth moving on a static face. The problem occurs when you see characters in profile (that is, when they're facing to the side of the camera, so you see half of their face), since the face should be animated. Lower budget cartoon (especially anime) artists sometimes tend to actually show the (already small) mouth from a 3/4ths viewpoint, even if the face and lips are still in profile. Since small noses often require drawing them to a point, this creates a weird flounder/Picasso effect or 'snout' as the character's mouth is no longer centered but completely on the side of the face. This is understandable for animation, as it's a budget saver and makes production go faster. This trope becomes artifactual in other media, specifically comics. Despite the fact this trick is really necessary only in a moving picture medium, a fair number of amateur artists do this, either due to inexperience, laziness, or adherence to the visual trope (in which case it's no longer a sign of sloppiness, but rather part of the style). This effect can be averted by simply avoiding profile altogether and doing 3/4 points of view instead. When it comes to time savers, some artists will cite preference for this kind of drawing with other shortcuts such as the Pac-Man mouth. Compare Cheated Angle and Sideways Smile, for face-splitting smiles with obscured eyes viewed from the side profile. |

Really, one would be hard-pressed to name an anime that doesn't feature Cheeky Mouth. It's been a staple of anime as far back as Astro Boy in the early '60s. It's also more noticeable in TV anime than in theatrical features, since TV series tend to have smaller budgets. For comparison: while you're likely to see much less of it in Studio Ghibli movies, Hayao Miyazaki used it a lot on his first TV series, Future Boy Conan. | |

Sonic Unleashed and Sonic Generations actually have Cheeky Mouth programmed into the rendering engine so that Sonic's mouth is always closest to the camera. If you're able to get him at the right camera angle, you can get this. | |

Originally, Sonic and some of his friends would, most of the time, only have the side-mouth if they were being viewed from a profile angle, to appear more natural. However, around the period Sonic Colors released, side-mouths were almost always what Sonic and other characters were depicted with. The Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games games, however, had front-mouths appearing much more frequently. | |

Rugrats: This seems to be a genetic trait of the female side of Angelica Pickles' family. Both her and her mom have their mouths drawn far off to the side inside their cheeks. Even when you're looking at her full profile, her mouth is always drawn inside one of her cheeks instead of being where it actually should be like every other character in the series. (Given how she's basically perpetually smug, maybe her face just got stuck that way.) Aunt Miriam even has one too... to be fair she is implied to be a elderly version of Angelica due to how she treated Grandpa Lou in the past. |

In Wonder Weenies, the mouths will even move from cheek to cheek in frontal views between panels. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog: Originally, Sonic and some of his friends would, most of the time, only have the side-mouth if they were being viewed from a profile angle, to appear more natural. However, around the period Sonic Colors released, side-mouths were almost always what Sonic and other characters were depicted with. The Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games games, however, had front-mouths appearing much more frequently. Sonic Heroes and the Wii-version of Sonic Unleashed averted this by simply not drawing mouths on the character models, though the cutscenes still had them. But the Werehog had one. Sonic Unleashed and Sonic Generations actually have Cheeky Mouth programmed into the rendering engine so that Sonic's mouth is always closest to the camera. If you're able to get him at the right camera angle, you can get this. Sonic in Ralph Breaks the Internet takes the Cheek Mouth to new extremes, moving the mouth side-to-side physically. |

Happens a few times in the anime Ergo Proxy. The animation quality is generally very good, so cheeky mouths that appear can be actually particularly glaring. | |

Happens in Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid especially for characters further back in a scene. The anime generally sticks to front shots of speaking characters. Profile shots and many characters in the background however end up falling into this trope. | |

Jingle the reindeer in Animal Crossing has his mouth texture permanently on one side of his face. When you talk to him, he will often ask you specifically to make sure to only look at his "good side". With the exception of Axel, all elephant villagers in Animal Crossing games have their mouths permanently on one side of their faces. Cyd is the only elephant villager whose mouth is on the right side, while all other elephants' mouths beside Axel's are on the left. Some non-elephant villagers, such as the mouse Dora and the pig Hugh, also have this. |

In Sweets Fairy, the characters' mouths often shift to one of their cheeks when they're being seen from a side angle to make the mouth more visible. The characters with beaks don't utilize this. | |

Frequent in early Walkyverse comics. At one point in the It's Walky! rerun, present-day Willis berates his past self for being "averse to drawing the mouth anywhere but floating on the middle of the cheek". | |

Can appear when a cartoon character has a big nose or snout that would obscure the mouth needed for an expression. Example: some Tove Jansson's illustrations of the Moomins show it. | |
