Sun never sets on an asshole. This trope is where Scary Shiny Glasses meets Cool Shades. Quite a bit of villains wear shades for some reason. Usually they hide the malice from the eyes of the one wearing them. If you're Making a Spectacle of Yourself, invoking this trope will fail horribly. Examples are numerous, including The Men in Black, members of secret societies, CIA agents, mafiosi, Yakuza, sinister police officers, Agent programs in the Matrix... you get the picture. Not always associated with villainous characters but usually a deliberate attempt to intimidate, so chances are that if a hero wears these, they're an example of Good Is Not Nice if not a full Anti-Hero. May overlap with Specs of Awesome. Compare Four Eyes, Zero Soul. Gas Mask Mooks takes this a few steps further. |

In Pokémon Detective Pikachu, Ms. Norman wears these, as does Roger Clifford during the PCL scenes. This is because Ms. Norman is actually a Ditto, and the same Ditto is impersonating Roger during the aforementioned scenes. Ditto cannot mimic human eyes, so the shades are necessary to hide its true nature. | |

From The Matrix: Agent programs sport these by default Morpheus has them, when, to Neo, he's still mysterious and vaguely threatening. They're deliberately shed whenever the character's meant to be vulnerable. Neo and Trinity get their own when they go Storming the Castle in the first movie. |

Manehattan's Lone Guardian has Glintlock, an Evil Poacher willingly working for someone who plans to take over Equestria, favoring a pair of shield-type sunglasses at all times. This is less out of intimidation than it is to protect his eyes, which have increased sensitivity to sunlight for reasons unknown. | |

Shino from Naruto is rarely, if ever seen without his shades. The same goes with his dad, or anyone from the Aburame family, for that matter. Given they host insects inside their bodies, this has lead to some unpleasant speculation as to why, exactly, we never see their eyes. | |

Trigun gives us the little shiny sunglasses Vash puts on when he's about to kick someone's ass. Remarkably the same Cool Shades invoke Bishōnen. In fact, because of the starkness of the character change from the goofball, simply shifting to Stoic Spectacles reaches the border of this trope. The shades can change in the same situations where, if his shades didn't go Sinister, we'd probably see the Glowing Eyes Red Eyes Of Doom instead. |

Rude (his name, not his description) in Final Fantasy VII has these, making him as scary as possible for being a member of the Goldfish Poop Gang. Rude also seems to carry around multiple pairs. In Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, his shades get stepped on, so he just pulls another one out of this jacket pocket. |

Luke Cage (2016): Hernan "Shades" Alvarez wears his namesake Ray-Bans almost all the time, even at night, and makes it known that he means business when he takes them off, so any scene where he's not wearing them is usually a serious and pivotal one. Theo Rossi has commented in interviews about taking a few cues from Charlie Cox's portrayal of Matt Murdock, as the role similarly required him to act without using his eyes to express emotion. | |

In Resident Evil, Albert goddamn Wesker. Eventually, it's to cover up for bizarrely inhuman eyes, but mostly they're just there to be rockin', especially since he did it before he got them and why he wore them in the lab, so yeah; it's mostly to be badass. Funnily enough, these bite him in the bum during his final appearance in 5. Despite all his mutagenic augmentations by that point in his career, for some reason merely shutting off the lights (in an area that wouldn't even be described as "poorly lit" anyway) can confuse him and leave him vulnerable for no reason other than his choice of eyewear, it seems. |

From the Bayonetta franchise there's Rodin who wears a pair, he's a Scary Black Man Fallen Angel who is one of the most powerful demons in the entire Trinity of Realities, not to mention a master weaponsmith who forges his wares by sucking out the souls of demons to fuel them. Despite this and evil-looking shades, he's not actually a bad guy... not that it makes him any less sinister. | |

In the Diogenes Club series, The Men in Black invariably wear dark glasses in all circumstances. In "Sorcerer Conjurer Wizard Witch", it's stated that there's something unpleasantly strange about their eyes that the glasses conceal (the character who's seen what's under there doesn't wish to dwell on the details). On the other hand, in "The Gypsies in the Wood", the leader of the group has a private meeting with the protagonist in which, as a show of good faith, he removes his glasses to reveal apparently normal and "surprisingly humorous" eyes. | |

Discussed in In the Line of Fire; Frank Horrigan is asked why he doesn't wear shades, like the rest of the agents, while standing post. He replies that he likes to get a good look at people's eyes. Given that he has the classic Clint Squint in his arsenal, adding shades might actually make him less intimidating. The other agents in the film all follow right along with this trope, though. | |

The Jennifer Morgue plays this for laughs with the sunglasses-wearing security agents of the villainous Bathory PaleGraceTM makeup company. One agent grudgingly admits that they're required to wear enchanted eyeliner that enables the Big Bad to see through their eyes — the sunglasses are optional, but they hide the fact that the big beefy guards all have makeup on. | |

Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach has Monty Gator's shades as the reason he's sinister. One of the mechanics of the game is stunning the animatronics with a camera flash or laser gun. This is explained in-universe as exploiting a glitch in the optic sensors used in the animatronics. Because Monty is wearing sunglasses, he can't be stunned, forcing you to outrun him when he attacks. He loses the sunglasses, and this immunity, when he becomes Shattered Monty. | |

Yamaki of Digimon Tamers, even after he finishing his Heel–Face Turn. It's kind of telling that they either come off or lighten up when he's doing something good. | |

Char Aznable, originally of Mobile Suit Gundam, sports these in Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam. He and his Clones tend to alternate between these and Cool Mask. | |

In the Yakuza series, Jo Amon and every member of the Amon clan wears one. You can acquire their shades as an item after beating them, which increases weapon damage. | |

Breaking Bad: Early on, when Walter White is cultivating his "Heisenberg" alias, he does so with sunglasses and porkpie hat to intimidate and somewhat hide his real identity. In later seasons he just uses transparent glasses, as he's already intimidating. | |

Soultaker stars Martin Sheen's brother as a Cool Shades-wearing Grim Reaper who falls in love with the leading lady/scriptwriter. The SOL Crew insisted upon singing "Sunglasses At Night" to mock this. | |

Jacob Arthur "Danik" in Dead Space 3 wears them "Albert Wesker" style. In other words, he never takes them off. Even when he is in snowy conditions and under the freaking ground, where he would have literally no reason to wear them. | |

YuYu Hakusho: Younger Toguro, the antagonist of the Dark Tournament arc, wears an intimidating pair of triangular shades that enhance his stoic, merciless attitude. It's shown in flashbacks that he didn't wear them before he became a demon and underwent a Face–Heel Turn. | |

Terminators are fond of wearing sunglasses, started by the T-800 donning a set of Ray-Bans to hide his missing eye in the first movie. It's used as symbolism in Judgment Day where the T-1000 wears sleek shiny chrome shades in contrast to the T-800's black ones to highlight how more technologically advanced it is. Later in the film the T-800 loses his his shades as he becomes more human, while Sarah Connor dons a pair to go assassinate Dyson to symbolize how she's losing her humanity and acting like a Terminator. | |

In Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, the Dark Crafter has shades that he uses to possess Claycia. They seem to be purely cosmetic otherwise, as its single eye is situated in his mouth. | |
