The Glasses Come Off	comment	A good way to mark your hero as an intellectual is to stick him on the far side of a pair of Nerd Glasses. A good way to mark your character as a badass is to kick some ass. We also all know that guys who wear glasses can never kick asses. It's contractually forbidden. Thus, when an intellectual is about to kick ass, the first thing he has to do is take off his glasses. (See: Male version of Flung Clothing) For an additional humourous/intellectual touch, the characters may be shown taking especial care to put their glasses away in a glasses case before stowing it away elsewhere, before commencing the violence. Characters may also take their glasses off before kissing, because some guys don't make passes at girls who wear glasses (see Beautiful All Along and The Glasses Gotta Go). Also because a pair of specs might get in the way. (And TWO pairs certainly will.) One strange side effect is that if a character does this enough times, they may stop wearing their glasses altogether. Rarely is the fact that the character may have needed the prescription in the first place brought up, it's usually Hand Waved that they eventually got contacts. While the loss usually represents the character taking a step forward in their attitudes, fans who are into that sort of thing can find it frustrating. Given that such characters will at some point be shown to be Blind Without 'Em, it may seem strange that removing their glasses renders the characters into Action Heroes, rather than rendering them, well, blind, but it seems to work. May occasionally make sense if the hero's glasses limit her/his fighting prowess. There are other, more practical reasons for this trope, of course; it is, after all, not a bad idea to remove your glasses before doing things where they might fly off or get broken, and preventing unwanted reflections from the lenses becomes troublesome during martial arts. And then there's the fact that keeping any easily shattered material near your eyes during a fight is a really bad idea (which is probably where the taboo against hitting a guy with glasses on came from). In the unlikely event that you have Eye Beams, of course, you have even more reason to get the lenses out of the way. And finally, those who have reading glasses don't usually need them for anything else, and so don't accustom to the sensation as easily as those who wear glasses all the time; in this case, it's not removing the glasses for the fight so much as removing the glasses because they're not reading anymore. Note that it isn't enough just to have glasses, you have to have Nerd Glasses for this trope to apply. (Compare Glasses And Ponytail Cover Up.) Some characters have Scary Shiny Glasses or Cool Shades, and they are most certainly not more powerful when this happens. Except of course, when the glasses are the distinguishing trait for the character, in which case, you should probably back off. Quickly. When someone takes their glasses off to express surprise, see Glasses Pull. When characters fight while wearing their glasses, it's Specs of Awesome. As the examples show, inversions in which a character becomes more badass when they put their Nerd Glasses on (because now they can actually see clearly to fight) are also common. See Book Snap for another intellectual sign of impending anger. Not to be confused with its sister trope Hold My Glasses, which isn't exclusive to Nerd Glasses and also covers other accessories besides glasses being taken off as a prelude to a fight. Examples

As a point of fact, Mousse is arrogant enough to hardly ever wear his glasses, often putting them on top of his head. In the early manga, he'd swallow his pride and wear them when involved in serious combat (only to take them off afterward.) By the late manga, his fighting skills have improved to the point he doesn't really need glasses anymore, but he'll still mistake potted plants for people outside a battle.

Given that the glasses used to hold back his Eye Beams, taking them all the way off usually meant something was gonna get broke in a hurry. Seldom demonstrated but awesome when it is: Cyke's visor, and shades as Scott Summers, are used to control the shape and strength of the blast even when he's actively using his powers. You don't fully understand until you see him take them off all the way and open his eyes fully. When that happens, "something" isn't gonna get broke - everything will get broke. For this reason, it's a weapon of last resort. However, if you absolutely have to get a Sentinel off your lawn, it'll get vaporized.

The Glasses Come Off / int_1c5e55fc	comment	Sort of inverted in The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension. We know Buckaroo is smart, but when he puts on his red-rimmed Nerd Glasses, he's really kicking the brain into overdrive (or showing off, since one of those times is a press conference). This is because of interference from the producers; they insisted that no action hero would wear glasses, despite director and co-creator W.D. Richter's desires. The compromise made between Richter and the producers was that Buckaroo could wear his glasses in three scenes in the film.

Also done by Nanao Ise when Mayuri decides to stand in for his daughter/science experiment Nemu at a meeting of the Shinigami Women's Association and refuse to leave, even when subjected to the Scary Shiny Glasses. Judging by his face, he got the message. Of course, this was after the vice-captains meeting was invaded by Byakuya standing in for Renji, a thoroughly creepy experience Nanao clearly wasn't prepared to experience again. In one of the Rock Musical Bleach, Aizen before he reveals he was Evil All Along, does this when Ichimaru mocks the way he dances.

The Glasses Come Off / int_2bb4ae0f	comment	In Heroes, Mr. Bennett uses his glasses much like Giles, whipping them off or putting them back on every time he makes a big decision. His glasses are such an iconic part of his character that in the early days of season one, before his name was revealed, he was known to fans simply as HRG (Horn-Rimmed Glasses). And Sylar, a Serial Killer, doesn't need glasses — but in a Flashback, it's shown that he used to, and turning evil apparently improved his eyesight. However, Sylar is only seen wearing his glasses while working on a watch, implying that he is farsighted rather than nearsighted, which would explain why he does not have to wear them while kicking arse. In recent episodes, Sylar's glasses seem to have become more symbolic. When he's wearing them he's Gabriel Grey, the nice watchmaker he used to be. When he takes them off, he's the evil Sylar. Only after he stole Claire's power.

He imagines her as a completely hot babe who has taken off her glasses, lets down her hair and either gets naked or wears a sexy dress. Even better — the whole thing comes true! "In a Different Light" became Stone's first No. 1 hit on the Billboard magazine Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart in the spring of 1991.

Justified, since her glasses are a part of her civilian disguise, plus they suppress her enhanced vision and hearing.

When she went to get a job at the Boar's Nest, she shed all of these things and became the babelicious babe the character came to be known for. (This is all non-canon to true Dukes fans, as Daisy was queen of the prom in high school according to the series' bible.)

Seldom demonstrated but awesome when it is: Cyke's visor, and shades as Scott Summers, are used to control the shape and strength of the blast even when he's actively using his powers. You don't fully understand until you see him take them off all the way and open his eyes fully. When that happens, "something" isn't gonna get broke - everything will get broke. For this reason, it's a weapon of last resort. However, if you absolutely have to get a Sentinel off your lawn, it'll get vaporized.

And you better run, 'cause she's a really good shot. The glasses aren't merely cosmetic. Mey-rin is actually exceptionally far-sighted, to the extent that she needs the glasses to be able to see anything up close at all. Even the glasses (a gift from her new master, Ciel Phantomhive) only partially correct her extreme hyperopia. In Chapter 85 of the manga, she finally gets a pair that lets her see properly. Whether this improves her skills as a maid remains to be seen. In Season 2 of the anime, Claude Faustus does this. When he takes off his spectacles, folds them up, and puts them carefully in the inside pocket of his tailcoat, shit is about to go down.

The Glasses Come Off / int_671cb3d	comment	Banshee gives us a villainous example in Burton, the mild-mannered accountant and chief enforcer of Kai Proctor. When he takes his glasses off, it's a sure sign that something truly horrible is about to happen to somebody. If he's in a rush, he may just break your arm and then cut off your ear, or shoot you in the face, but if you make the mistake of breaking his glasses, he'll stab you in the throat with the Spirit of Ecstasy and then rip out your trachea.

Though we never get his take on it, his family assumes he's trying to make himself look like he means business. Eventually, it's revealed that the actual reason was that he got his Surgebinding powers a while back, and his Healing Factor fixed his eyesight, making the glasses unnecessary.

The Glasses Come Off / int_6ade118b	comment	Comes in two flavors with Jang Gun from Yureka. He really has poor vision, but spends large amounts of time in The Metaverse, where he acts considerably more badass than he does in real life, piloting a Digital Avatar who doesn't need them. As such, a Jang Gun without glasses is shorthand for a considerably less subdued Jang Gun. As a side effect of this he uses his glasses in real life as part of a more subdued persona as a sort of defense mechanism, so when he actually has to buckle down offline he takes them off anyway.

Usually he only takes them off when he's thinking or particularly stressed out about a situation. In one episode Jackson's alternate universe counterpart had much thicker frames on his glasses, compared to those Jackson had at the start of the series to hammer the point home. Also subverted within the show, as on many occasions the team can be seen wearing eye protection when going into a firefight, including post-spectacles Daniel.

In the finale, the protagonist throws his away before wrecking the true final boss with the power of truth to wipe away all of humanity's falsehoods - he's seen through the fog with his own eyes and doesn't need the glasses anymore. Persona 5: After a Miscarriage of Justice puts him on legal probation, the protagonist begins wearing a set of thick Nerd Glasses (implied to be non-functional fashion glasses), presumably to draw less attention to himself. He discards them any time he enters the collective unconscious to fight Shadows. Particularly played up at the start of the game, where his glasses are knocked off by a guard Mook right before he awakens to his Guardian Entity, one of the eponymous Personas. Since he doesn't need to hide who he is anymore, he's seen without them as he heads home in the true ending.

The Glasses Come Off / int_967347ea	comment	All during the Revolutionary Girl Utena TV series, Anthy wears glasses. However, at the end of the show when she gains the confidence to break away from her domineering brother and go search for Utena, she's no longer seen wearing the glasses. Given the nature of the show, her previous dependence on them was most likely just a symbol for the spiritual "blindness" she suffered while under the thumb of her brother and not indicative of any physical problem. Interestingly, this is reversed with Mikage, who is unable to clearly perceive things after he loses his glasses.

The Glasses Come Off / int_998cbda3	comment	Daredevil (2015): Matt tends to be more open and less guarded if he has his glasses off. Charlie Cox has said in interviews that Matt has a habit of wearing his glasses whenever he's around Karen because he feels that sheâ€™s able to read through him. Very often in Matt's conversations with Karen where he isn't wearing his glasses, he is letting his barriers down and saying truthful things. In particular, when around people like Foggy or Claire who have had time to adjust to knowing Matt is blind, he tends to go without the sunglasses. In The Defenders (2017), Matt removes his glasses when he and Jessica Jones are entering Midland Circle so he can tie Jessica's scarf around his head to hide his face. Only once Matt, Jessica, Luke and Danny get to the Royal Dragon does Matt return Jessica's scarf. He doesn't put his glasses back on, though, figuring he has no need to when in the company of other people with abilities. He doesn't put his glasses back on again until he's on his way to the Bulletin to ask Karen to get police protection with Foggy, Claire, Malcolm, Trish, and the others. Matt, Jessica and Luke are picked up by the cops after Elektra kills Stick and captures Danny. Matt has his glasses off while he's truthfully telling Foggy about what happened. He then slips his glasses back on as Misty enters the room and acts as uncooperative as possible to avoid dropping any hints that he's Daredevil, but Misty isn't buying it.

She is seen with glasses exactly once in a Season 5, after which it appears Jan's astigmatism is cured. On another episode, Marcia helps a girl become pretty. When her glasses are brought up, the girl mentions that she has contact lenses at home, but never wears them. How very convenient, but begs the question on how the girl's parents spent a large chunk of change on contacts for their daughter (this is the 1970's, after all), then simply let her not wear them. The same issue comes up in the film The Princess Diaries and is handled almost the same way.

The Glasses Come Off / int_cfd860dd	comment	Another example from the Nasuverse is the subversion of the Servant Rider. In civvies during one epilogue (and for most of Fate/hollow ataraxia) she wears thick, tinted glasses, while in her battle gear for most of Fate/stay night she wears a blindfold. In her case, it's because her true identity is the gorgon Medusa. When she takes off her glasses, people around her die horribly. Also, she has demonic snake eyes that look extremely unnerving from up-close (not that anyone who looks at them would care, as they'd be too busy turning into statues).

Romo Lampkin even steals her glasses during the Baltar trial for the purpose of making her look less intelligent/sympathetic. Romo himself takes off his Sunglasses at Night for effect during his interview with Caprica Six. Don't forget about Admiral Adama. Whenever he took off the glasses, he would end up doing rash things. It was only when he put the glasses back on that he started seeing things clearly. Though his badass death glare worked just fine through glasses.

The Glasses Come Off / int_dcdb5ca9	comment	Shiki Tohno from Tsukihime is an example of this. In the game (and spin-offs), he needs his glasses to see reality without the "lines of death" on all objects, which determine striking points to eliminate them from existence. Seeing the lines puts a lot of strain on him, so he keeps the glasses on all the time. Needless to say, he only takes off the glasses when he turns into a complete badass, represented as Shiki Nanaya. This change in personality is a result of his family heritage, as he is actually descended from a line of psychic monster killers. His blood boils when he detects supernatural threats like demons or vampires, causing him to lose control. A good example of this is when he cuts Arcuied Brunestud into a bunch of bloody chunks in the course of only a few seconds. She later has to use a massive amount of her power to restore herself, rendering her much more susceptible to the enemies in the series. If he takes off his glasses, it means he IS going to kill you, no matter who you are, or how powerful you are. If there is a single way possible to kill you, he will cut you, and you will die. This is so much, that one bad ending is reached by taking off your glasses. Why? Because you're not SUPPOSED to fight seriously!

The Glasses Come Off / int_e293455a	comment	Rupert Giles, librarian, sorcerer and member of the Watchers' Council, in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Giles admitted that he gained the nickname "Ripper" during his rebellious youth, when he had delved into black magics and demon summoning. Calling special attention to the trope, in the episode "The Gift", following a large heroic action sequence, Giles puts his glasses back on before he delivers a Coup de GrÃ¢ce in cold blood, effectively refusing to be a hero as he commits a necessary but reprehensible act. In the Sixth Season, Xander and Willow mention in passing that Giles's habit of taking off his glasses and cleaning them was both a silent signal that he disapproved of what the Scooby Gang were doing, whether this be goofing off or doing something morally grey, and also a way of averting his eyes in the latter case so he could claim to have no knowledge of what they were doing.

He retains them for the rest of the series even though he's on the good side now, although he occasionally removes them (alternately, his eyes will become visible through the lenses) during particularly dramatic moments, often when he's defending the Tamers, or admitting that they're just going to have trust them.

Sawa-sensei is a kind, quiet, glasses-wearing school teacher who turns out to have been a heavy metal guitarist and singer a few years back when she attended the same high school she now teaches at. When Yui drops her guitar into Sawa-sensei's hands, she temporarily reverts back into her slightly-evil metalhead form, removing her glasses before she, utilizing incredibly high-level techniques, plays an insane, improvised guitar solo that would make Eddie Van Halen himself proud. She also does so here and here.

His friend Charlie Nash in the Street Fighter Alpha series is the straighter example of the two, though. Charlie is actually a subversion, because his glasses are purely cosmetic. And about Charlie, in some of his appearances (Cannon Spike and Street Fighter V), this trope is averted since he wears his glasses all the time.

The Glasses Come Off / int_ec28245c	comment	Gohan in Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball GT. Apparently, he has perfect vision most of the time * Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero reveals he actually has poor eyesight when not tapping into his ki , but will still conveniently forget to wear them on days when the Monster of the Week or Big Bad might show up. When Baby possesses him, he actually smashes the glasses prior to going out and kicking Vegeta's ass. Likewise, Trunks in GT. But they might be only for reading. Played straight in one episode of Dragon Ball Super, with Gohan having Tareme Eyes with his glasses on that suddenly change to Tsurime Eyes when he takes them off. The most glorious and straightest example comes from Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero when storming the Red Ribbon Army base to save Pan, though he is in mid-Unstoppable Rage he still keeps his glasses on, even while fighting Gamma 1. Itâ€™s only after heâ€™s been cleanly overpowered by the android that Gohan decides to put the nerdy scholar to bed and wake up the Super Saiyan, pulling off his glasses off with flourish◊ and immediately put Gamma 2 on the defensive from then on.
