Evil and mischievous kaomoji
Not every face is friendly. Evil kaomoji are for the moments when you are plotting something small and harmless: stealing the last biscuit, winning the board game, or teasing a friend. They are cheeky rather than angry, and they usually come with a sly grin or a pair of horns.
What makes a face look evil
- Slanted eyes like ≖ and ◣◢ make the face look narrow and scheming. (≖‿≖) is the classic sly one.
- Ψ is a trident. Next to a grinning face, as in (｀∀´)Ψ, it turns it into a little devil.
- Φ is a cat-like eye, used in (ΦωΦ) for a villain with whiskers.
- ҂ over the eyes adds a dark shadow.
Evil versus angry
People sometimes mix these up. An angry kaomoji shows frustration, with gritted teeth and flipped tables. An evil one is calm and amused, and enjoys what it is about to do. If you want a face that is really annoyed, the angry kaomoji are a better fit.
Ideas for using them
| Situation | Try |
|---|---|
| Announcing a prank | (≖‿≖) · (ಠ‿ಠ) |
| Winning a game | (｀∀´)Ψ · (>‿◠)✌ |
| A dark joke | (҂◡_◡) · (ΦωΦ) |
| Smug and satisfied | (¬▂¬) · (￢‿￢ ) |

Keeping it friendly
The trick with a villain face is context. After a joke, it says "I'm only kidding". After a serious sentence, it can sound like a threat. When in doubt, put a smile or a heart after it, or pick one of the rounder faces in the grid, like (๑`･ᴗ･´๑), which looks naughty rather than menacing.
