[[AC:{{Anime}}]]

* [[spoiler: Saralegui]] from ''KyouKaraMaou!''

** She has also used it once in the manga after her introduction. But here there is a explanation for this as she wants to catch Tsukunes heart with fair play and not with her powers, not only for her love for him but also her love for the rest of the girls in the harem. This turns into a tear jerker when she [[spoiler: accidently charms Tsukune and spends the rest of the day with him in her room, ending with her trying to make him saying that he likes her until it's instead her who breaks down to tears and says that she likes him]]

* ''TheDemonHeadmaster'', although he uses his catchphrase along with it;

[[AC: LiveActionTV]]

[[AC: Puppet shows]]

[[AC:{{Tabletop Games}}]]
* In the ''WorldOfDarkness Vampire: the Masquerade/Requiem'', this is any vampire with the Dominate discipline, which generally requires that the user make eye contact with the target to implant suggestions.
** Also oWoD Setites with Serpentis 1, Eyes of the Serpent, could freeze someone in place by making eye contact.

-->'''Iris the Great Egyptian Magician: '''"By Osiris and by Apis, look in my eyes. You have turned into a wild boar. Yes! A wiiillld boooaaarrr..."

[[AC:RealLife]]

* Naoi plays these almost entirely for gags in {{Angel Beats}}.
* The Sharingan from ''{{Naruto}}'' has hypnotic powers. In Kakashi's case this expresses itself as the iris spinning madly...

* Hiei from ''YuYuHakusho''. His ThirdEye gives him a number of psychic abilities. Although sadly, they are rarely, to never used.

* In the hentai ''AlienFromTheDarkness'', when the titular alien is in its human female form and begins seducing a crew-member, its eyes flash green before revealing its [[NaughtyTentacles unexpected appendages]]. Once this happens, the alien's victims' [[MindControlEyes eyes go blank]], and they seemingly become unable (or unwilling) to resist.

* The titular Dr. Mabuse in FritzLang's Dr. Mabuse the Gambler.

** Carried over into a commercial the sequel, where you ''play'' as him. In this case, he's trying to make people act more like him.

* In the LooneyTunes short "Mexican Boarders", Slowpoke Rodriguez, the Slowest Mouse in all Mexico, uses HypnoticEyes to zap Sylvester into becoming his obedient slave.

* Kurumu from ''[[RosarioToVampire Rosario+Vampire]]'' seduces the main character with these, though she calls the ability "[[CharmPerson Charm]]." She only really uses it in [[ItOnlyWorksOnce one episode]], though, after her [[spoiler: HeelFaceTurn]].

* In the ''WorldofDarkness'' Vampire: the Masquerade/Requiem, this is any vampire with the Dominate discipline, which generally requires that the user make eye contact with the target to implant suggestions.

* [[spoiler: Saralegui]] from KyouKaraMaou!

* [[MagnificentBastard Lelouch]] of CodeGeass has something akin to this; his 'Geass' (a power closely connected to eyes and sight) allows him to issue 'absolute orders'. Lelouch geasses you to do something, you do it. Not fully this trope (there are enough differences to distance it), but certainly closely related. [[spoiler: Especially when it becomes ''permanently'' active]].

-->'''Duke''': I say, ''gaze into the hypnotic power of my Evil Eye!''

* In the WarnerBros. short "Mexican Boarders", Slowpoke Rodriguez, the Slowest Mouse in all Mexico, uses HypnoticEyes to zap Sylvester into becoming his obedient slave.

* ''MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' villain Discord has this ability, which he uses to invert the personalities of the mane six (sans Twilight). He usually uses this as the finishing touch after having worn down his victims [[MoreThanMindControl the mundane way]] first, but when Fluttershy proves immune to this kind of persuasion, he skips straight to the magic.

* The fakir in ''[[{{Tintin}} Cigars of the Pharaoh]]''. More so in the AnimatedAdaptation.

* VillageOfTheDamned.

* Disney's ''RobinHood'' anyone? Sir Hiss at least once did this to Prince John.

* In Kipling's short story "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi", Darzee's wife must avoid looking into the cobra Nagaina's eyes, because doing so would leave her paralyzed with fear.
* In the NightHuntress books, vampires can brainwash humans if they look at the vampire's eyes. A small percentage of the human population is immune to this ability.
* In the Fantasy series {{Redwall}}, snakes, primarily adders have this ability. The only (known) non-snake example would be the pine marten Ublaz Mad Eyes. [[NamesToRunAwayFromVeryFast The name says all]].
* In AWrinkleInTime, the [[EvilEye Man with Red Eyes]] has powerful HypnoticEyes which he uses to bring Charles Wallace under the control of IT.
* The Shadow was known for this in most of his incarnations.
* Manfred, the Headmaster's son, in CharlieBone, has these as his gift.

* The Master of Series/DoctorWho fame has a long history of hypnotizing people by staring into their eyes and telling them to obey him.

* [[{{Futurama}} All glory to the Hypnotoad]]!

* [[EvilChancellor Jafar]]'s cobra-headed cane.

* The villain of the B-movie ''[[TheThingThatCouldntDie The Thing That Couldn't Die]]'' (another fine ''{{Mystery Science Theater 3000}}'' experiment) is the undead head of devil-worshipper Gideon Drew, which is still able to instantly enslave anyone who looks at him without protection.

* Black Mage of [[{{Ptitle6tiifl5njuo5}} 8-Bit Theater]] has on two occasions used Hypnovision on his [[strike:allies]] [[strike:enemies]] allies. Both occasions did little to no good, as the first target (Fighter) was too dumb to be affected by it (even though he actually kinda was), and the second (Red Mage) was wearing mirrored shades for "[[CrazyPrepared no apparent reason]]".

* The Master of DoctorWho fame has a long history of hypnotizing people by staring into their eyes and telling them to obey him.

* One commercial for SuperMarioLand 2, the debut of [[EvilTwin Wario]] as a villain, has him trying to use HypnoticEyes to brainwash people into obeying him.

If the eyes are the windows to the soul, this person has a very... [[CharmPerson persuasive]]... [[{{Brainwashed}} compelling]]... even [[DemonicPossession possessive]] soul. With little more than a few words intoned in their deep, CompellingVoice, any [[HypnoFool fool]] gazing into their eyes will be [[WeakWilled hopelessly hypnotized]].

* One commercial for SuperMarioLandII, the debut of [[EvilTwin Wario]] as a villain, has him trying to use HypnoticEyes to brainwash people into obeying him.

* One commercial for one of the ''Mario'' games has [[EvilTwin Wario]] trying to use HypnoticEyes to brainwash people into obeying him.
** That was for Mario Land II, which was Wario's debut as a villain.

* Black Mage of [[{{Ptitle6tiifl5njuo5}} 8-Bit Theater]] has on two occasions used Hypnovision on his [[strike:allies]] [[strike:enemies]] allies. Both occasions did little to no good, as the first target (Fighter) was too dumb to be affected by it (even though he actually kinda was), and the second (Red Mage) was wearing mirrored shades for "[[{{Munchkin}} no apparent reason]]".
