Dorothy Parker. Literally, "glasses girl"—one of the classic "sweet girl" stereotypes in anime. Cute enough without going overboard or posing the threat that a more conventionally beautiful girl might, the meganekko is usually pleasant, smart, and clever. And something about the fact that she needs glasses seems to imply an endearing vulnerability that makes her far more accessible to the average guy. After the Yamato Nadeshiko, she's the second- best girl that a boy can bring home to meet his parents and probably the more realistic of the two. Naturally, as with any stereotype, the meganekko can be inverted or subverted, but the vast majority in anime are sweet, smart and — when found in a major role — usually more than a challenge for a male lead to keep up with. Occasionally she's an unpopular character within the story, but not with the fans. The glasses are the important part, though. Whether she's Blind Without 'Em or not, they are key to her appeal. This is one girl who doesn't need a "Beautiful All Along" transformation; in fact, taking her glasses away is an almost surefire way to reduce her attractiveness! Keep in mind that not all Meganekko/Megane's are always Nerds or Geeks of some sort, this trope can apply to all stereotypes. Sometimes the presence or absence of glasses shows a change in personality, while other times they're a way to give a character a more realistic costume prop. In Western countries this type of character is rarely popular; when she appears, she is often commanded that The Glasses Gotta Go!, although the Shrinking Violet or cute nerd sometimes invoke this trope. Glasses on a Hot Librarian or Sexy Secretary are a completely different thing. The Seemingly Wholesome '5. Girl may use glasses to pretend to be this trope.

Later a genuine Meganekko, Hasegawa Sora, showed up in the cast. Air Gear: Ringo when she isn't riding on her gear. Ai Kora: Yukari, who even has a fangirl of her own with a glasses fetish. The mangaka even devoted a whole chapter to this topic: when Yukari feels insecure about her looks, thinking that her glasses make her ugly, the aforementioned fangirl takes her to a cafe full of glasses fetishists, who make her model different outfits and glasses and repeat that the glasses enhance the look. They even teach her 'glasses techniques', like peering over the glasses, etc. Of course, when she meets the protagonist and tries it out, he doesn't notice, because his fetish ain't her glasses. Ai Yori Aoshi: Taeko Minazuki is an innocent, adorable and attractive Red- Headed Meganekko.

The boys are Touyama◊ and Ibaraki◊, the girl is Fukui.◊Azumanga Daioh: Yomi is both an honors student and an Academic Athlete, as her grades are consistently among the highest at the school (usually placing second below Chiyo).

However, in most of her appearances, she wears contact lenses instead. Chocotto Sister: Chitose, the landlady, wears thick glasses and is very self- conscious about it. A boy calling her a "four- eyed dog" in high school is a major emotional hurt of hers and Haruma's complimenting her on how she looks wearing them is a large part of why she falls for him. Chrono Crusade: Shader, although she's much more of a Genki Girl than the typical stereotype. CLANNAD was mostly lacking in Meganekkos, but Sanae delivered in spades with her disguise in After Story.

Date A Live: Reine Murasame is a reasonable example, though she ditches the glasses at times. She's still very attractive in her sleep deprived way. Detective Conan. Dennou Coil: Everyone, but especially Yasako, since she wears ordinarily shaped glasses instead of goggles. Her personality fits as well. Digimon Adventure 0. Miyako Inoue, who while very much on the hyper tomboyish side at least wants to be a Yamato Nadeshiko. Dr. Slump: Arale Norimaki, the main character.
