tareme

タレ目 たれ目 たれめ 垂れ目 垂眼 下垂眼

Eyes drawn with the top eyelid slanted outwards, to the point where the outer corner of the eye is much lower than the inner corner.

This usually produces a weak, gentle look and is generally given to characters with soft personalities (naturally, exceptions exist). Also known as a negative canthal tilt.

Opposite is tsurime, which usually produces a strong, piercing look.
