The question mark is a common, handy visual representation of confusion, surprise, or just being plain weirded out. It can manifest as several question marks floating around the nonplussed character's head, a single such symbol hovering over the character, or pop up as the contents of a thought bubble (or a regular Speech Bubble, in which case it seems to represent the "huh?" sound). Compare Visible Silence. See also My Name Is ???, where it is used as a symbol of the unknown. Compare Alertness Blink. |

In Ōkamiden, since Chibiterasu relies on his partners for exposition, any time you try to examine something without your partner, all you get is a whimper and a ? above Chibi's head. | |

In a nod to Felix the Cat as listed above, in the Tom and Jerry cartoon "Ah, Sweet Mouse-Story of Life," Jerry ends up walking off a construction beam and a question mark appears above his head just before he falls. In a Ninja Prop moment, he grabs the question mark and uses it as a hook to latch onto a ledge. Tom later attempts the same thing, but before falling he becomes shocked rather than surprised, getting an uselessly straight exclamation mark instead. | |

The Animal Crossing games have this as one of the emotions/expressions/reactions (terminology depends on the game) that villagers can display and the player character can learn from Wild World onward. It's only called "Confusion" in Wild World; otherwise it's "Curiosity". Even renamed, villagers use it for this trope if the player enters a villager's house or an occupied campsite tent but leaves without interacting with the villager. | |

The Batman Adventures: In one story, Batman catches the Riddler by pure luck when he tries a heist at the same place and time as the Threatening Three. When the Riddler asks how Batman solved his riddle, he admits that he didn't (being preoccupied with the Threatening Three). A question mark over his head represents Batman's puzzlement as Riddler reacts with exuberant joy even as he's taken off to prison (as far as he's concerned, he won). | |

In Cave Story, trying to examine an object without something to examine will cause a question mark to pop up over your character's head. More humorously, transforming into a bat while your Bat familiar[s] are equipped will cause them to fall in love with Alucard (with a heart symbol appearing over their heads) and fly close to him in formation, and then a "?" appears over the head of each bat once he reverts back to human form. | |

Pokémon: In Pokémon Red and Blue, the confusion status effect was indicated by two question marks appearing above the Pokémon's head, each accompanied by a sound effect suggesting the "huh?" sound. From Generation 1 to this day, the appearance of question marks serves as the animation for the status move Amnesia, which grants a +2 to Special Defense. In the Pokémon Stadium games, question marks appeared above a confused Pokémon's head. In other games, it is usually portrayed by birds flying around its head. In the Pokemon Mini game, Togepi's Great Adventure, after Togepi completes the Tower Of Origin, Togepi comes across a Donphan that accidentally collides with Togepi to send it flying (thus kicking off the Tower Of Adventure), prompting Donphan to stop and glance behind it in puzzlement, with a question mark appearing above it. |
