The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope?

And I've found it: the index for Japanese Visual Arts Tropes. I'm assuming this might also cover visual conventions in Korean manhwa, or am I oversimplifying things?
Is there a trope, or a superindex, covering what looks like the standard range of facial expressions in animé characters? (things like the obligatory wink when a character is knowingly addressing the fourth wall, or the way the eyes are replaced by upward-pointing chevrons/carets when excited, or the exaggerated letterbox mouth seen in the page image for Sunny Sunflower Disposition) These look like a range of standard expressions and trope shortcuts, and it'd be interesting to find out more about this. Thanks all!
