A universal sound of contempt and wordless disapproval, there is no better way to get across that a character is arrogant, smarmy, or contemptuous of something better than a firm "Hmph!" Often times it will be paired with crossed arms or an upturned chin, or perhaps a smug smirk if the intent is to show how little the person in question thinks of the person or situation they're dealing with. It is the favorite noise of the Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy, Smug Super, Jerk Jock, and the Insufferable Genius. Tsunderes will often make this sound along with a Crush Blush to indicate how SO totally not into you they are. It is practically the catchphrase of the Alpha Bitch.
The trope tends to come in two basic varieties:
The disapproving, scornful "Hmph!" made by characters who feel slighted or are about to give you a piece of their mind.
The smug, smarmy "Hmph." that shows a character is bemused and condescending towards something.
Sometimes the sound that's used isn't "Hmph", but something similarly nonverbal, like "Ha!", "Pfft", or "Tch."
Characters that do this a lot are often in for a good breaking. In a lot of cases the villain can be expected to do this more than the hero, but not always. Anyone indignant or prideful might be expected to puff one out.
Sub-Trope of Reaction Shot. Often paired with Unprovoked Pervert Payback. Compare Big "NO!" and Big "NEVER!".
Note: No Zero-Context Examples, please!

Paptimus Scirocco of Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam is characterized by this in his first few appearances to indicate he isn't nearly as nice as he might initially appear. Moody teen protagonist Kamille Bidan also does this quite a few times.

Daffy Duck of Looney Tunes is especially prone to doing this any time he's in a short with Bugs Bunny. Almost all of the Looney Tunes have done this, however; some others who are particularly inclined are Granny, Sylvester, and Bugs himself.

Goddamn Critical Hits, a Nuzlocke fan-comic, has a non-canonical High School AU page titled "Tenshi Baku-Hiroshima Habanero Wasabi-Mon #239", which parodies Japanese media by replacing each character's personality with a different ridiculous anime stereotype. Dusty goes from The Stoic to an aloof grump who says "Hmph" before every line.

At the beginning of Sector 2, Dan's holding back information, from Iji, his older sister, and she doesn't like that:
Iji's been running around fighting aliens, while Dan's been sitting safe in a security room, and Iji takes the idea that there's something she can't do, as an insult:
And when an alien Elite is disbelieving when Iji says she'll convince the alien General to stop attacking Earth:

The titular character of Courage the Cowardly Dog often uses this to show his disapproval of something, since he's a semi Silent Protagonist.

During the Ghost of Christmas Past sequence in Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, a teenage Scrooge is talking to a girl when his friend Dick Wilkinson surprises them, causing the girl to storm off with an outraged 'Hmph!' Scrooge himself does this at several points during the beginning portion of the play.

Onmyōji (2016): Yōkinshi, being as arrogant as he can get, lets out this kind of noise when he is hit with an enemy attack and when he's executing one of his special skills — namely, passing his turn to another teammate.
He also does this in his in-game autobiography in which he expresses utter contempt for another person who wants to hear his music.

Early on in the series, Sasuke Uchiha of Naruto did this to the point of it being a Verbal Tic. After he begins to doubt his own abilities and get lured by the promises of power of Orochimaru he begins to do it less and less, but never completely stops doing it. Sakura Haruno, likewise, used the scornful version quite often at the beginning of the series.

Mickey Mouse shorts: Minnie Mouse is a very frequent user of this trope, as is Donald Duck; in the former's case it's especially common after Mickey has done something to offend her or when she's rejecting the advances of Pete.
