tsurime

Eyes drawn with the top eyelid slanting inwards. This usually produces a strong, piercing look and is generally given to characters with forceful personalities (naturally, exceptions exist). Also known as a positive canthal tilt or slanted eyes.

Opposite is tareme, which usually produces a gentle, weak look.
