Anime and manga - a Japanese style of cartooning - feature complex dramas and characters with large, expressive eyes. Modern anime and manga became established in Japan in the 1950s.

Today, these films, television series, and comic books are popular all over the world.

Similar to the archetypes of Western literature, common anime personalities include the "beautiful boy;" the dandere silent love interest; the goudere, "who relentlessly pursues their own vision of their love interest's desires, which they typically misunderstand in some comically over-the-top fashion;" and the "eight-grader syndrome" with delusions of grandeur.
