How do you make a blank stare even blanker? Have the character's eyes face slightly (or even more than slightly) away from each other — reverse cross-eyes, if you will. It's usually used to make the character look unintelligent or dumbfounded, causing it to become known as "derp eyes" in some Internet circles. In real world English this is called "wall-eye" or "squint", and in medical jargon "exotropia". Sometimes however, they can be used for a more serious effect, such as showing that a character's mental stability is loosening, emphasizing an emotion (commonly anger or happiness); sometimes this is done when a character mocks another, or to emphasize that they act in a way unlike they usually do. They may occasionally be the result of plain old physical eye damage. A particularly common form of Off-Model in both hand-drawn and computer-generated 2D animation, especially when depicting an aside glance. Compare Comically Cross-Eyed, which is also used to convey stupidity or insanity, but is almost always Played for Laughs. Unrelated to Fish-Eye Lens. |

The Ghost And Molly Mcgee: In "The Greatest Concert Ever", Scratch expresses concern that Molly was up all night working on her convoluted scheme to intercept Kenny Starr and ask him to perform at the Brighton Bandshell, asking her if she got any sleep last night. Molly's response is to stand there as one of her eyes drifts off to the side. | |

Pops up now and again on The Simpsons, especially on earlier seasons: Ralph Wiggum is drawn this way a lot of the time (although it's pretty subtle). When Sideshow Bob hypnotizes Bart in one episode, the Simpson kid becomes cross-eyed. In "Diatribe of a Mad Housewife", Marge is trying to talk some sense into Homer, and his reaction is to stand there staring off into space, with one of his eyes wobbling back and forth. Then the same scene is repeated with Bart and Lisa in the same episode. The episode "I Don't Wanna Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" revolves around Marge being stalked by a bug-eyed fugitive who wanted her to see him in prison after she persuaded him to turn himself in to the police, but she never did. This feature is pointed out repeatedly and usually Played for Laughs, but it looks rather disturbing at a point when they're in a stadium and he appears to look down at Marge from the jumbotron. For bonus points, the guy was voiced by Steve Buscemi. |

Mario in SMG4 over 90% of the time to emphasize his stupidity. Other characters aren't immune… Peach has these sometimes to show her increasing insanity. In the 2020 episode "Mario's Mask Of Madness", every character possessed by the cursed Mario Mask acts like this canon's Mario at his craziest, complete with his trademark wall-eyes. Meggy also has these while possessed by the BEEG SMG4 Mask. In 2022's "Breaking Luigi", most characters' eyes derp either briefly or permanently upon eating a Robotnik Head Pingas meme and becoming re-corrupted. Whenever a character goes bug-eyed to show shock or fear, this can sometimes happen. The one time this was used on Mario and NOT Played for Laughs was in 2022's "If Mario Was The Last Man On Earth". Mario's friends left him so he wouldn't screw up their attempt at a world record, and he cracked from being alone. The tell this is meant to be different and more serious than his usual derp-eyes is the noticeable blood vessels in his sclerae. |

In The Binding of Isaac taking an "R U A Wizard?" pill gives Isaac wall eyes for a short time as a reference to the "Are You A Wizard?" meme. Unlike most examples of this trope, Isaac's eyes actually move to the side of his face rather than just facing outwards. This makes it much harder to aim, because he fires his tears at a 45 degree angle rather than straight out in front of him. Picking up "The Wiz" gives Isaac this effect permanently and also gives him a Dunce Cap, but to compensate it doubles his rate of fire and makes them travel over obstacles. It's still widely seen as a Power Up Let Down, though. | |

Richard Williams of Kansas sometimes has this appearance in early photos of the band. Justified in that one of his eyes was a fake glass eye (replacing an eye he lost making a homemade bomb when he was younger). Eventually he got tired of fooling around with the glass eye and started wearing an eye patch. | |

Caster of Fate/Zero has these, emphasizing that he's not the world's most stable individual. He's also a walking reference to the Cthulhu Mythos, so it's only fitting that he has the "Innsmouth look" mentioned under Literature. In the Einzbern Consultation Room specials, it is revealed that he had these even when he was alive, and Jeanne d'Arc would regularly poke his eyes back in. When he appears as a Saber in Fate/Apocrypha, he begins with normal eyes, but as his sanity declines, his eyes morph into this shape. | |

Played for drama/horror in Blood on the Tracks. Shigeru's fall off a cliff causes a skull fracture which leads to bleeding in his brain, requiring surgery to relieve the pressure. When Shige sees him in the hospital after the surgery, he is comatose, his eyes pointing in opposite directions with extremely dark scleras, as if they're very bloodshot or even bruised. | |

All passive (harmless) mobs in Minecraft. Since eyes are only two pixels wide by one pixel tall, it was either that or crossed eyes, which are used for the default player character skin and for wolves and ocelots, to make them look more intelligent. | |

Seen a few times in My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, often as a Freeze-Frame Bonus due to typically being an animation error: Derpy Hooves is an interesting case: she's fish-eyed and just as often seen Comically Cross-Eyed. She inverts this as her eyes usually face inward. The toys of Princesses Celestia and Luna tend to suffer from this, as do the Miniature Collection toy of Zecora and the Target-exclusive plush of Twilight Sparkle. One background pony in "Griffon the Brush Off" can be seen making a crazy "shocked" face, complete with fish-eyes, when Gilda scares off Fluttershy. The same background pony makes another fish-eyed face in "Hurricane Fluttershy". Rainbow Dash briefly wears this expression in "Fall Weather Friends" while trying to laugh off Twilight Sparkle's suspicions. Pinkie Pie wears this expression during her infamous Sanity Slippage in "Party of One" whenever she is puppeteering the friends that she created for Gummy's after-birthday party. Twilight Sparkle lapses into this several times during her brief struggle with mental instability in "Lesson Zero". Purposefully averted at one point during "A Canterlot Wedding -- Part 2". During fake Cadance's song, she gives a sideways look at the audience (directly to her right) while standing in front of a mirror (directly to her left). The show's art style would have rendered this as her having fish eyes, so her mirror image's eye is closed to keep the focus on the other one. Fans sometimes cite this as an animation error, not realizing how odd she would have looked had this not been done. Basically, as the ponies have their eyes partly to the sides of their heads and not pointing directly ahead as with humans, turning one eye directly to the side makes it impossible to point the other one in the same direction. From the character's own point of view, it would seem she would have split her field of vision in two if she'd kept the left eye open, so this was perhaps justified in-universe too. |
