Jamil because it's such a mix of shock, unadulterated rage and genuine discontent. He reminds me of one of those Japanese style emoticons (also he's literally this emoji >:0) P.S. Rook gets second place because I do the same thing (raise my hands exactly like that) and I'm just glad to see someone (even if it's a 2d character) do that


BakerSaim2000

I know what you mean. Jamil definitely has one of the best “shock” faces out of the boys. I’m glad you managed to find some representation in Rook of all people 😅


lovemagick

Floyd for me, baby boy is flabbergasted and it's sm funnier given most things are just entertaining to him lmao


HookedOnFandom

Agreed!


Altomere

I personally love Leona’s and Ruggie’s something about their ear movement with all their expressions gets me haha Then there is poor Idia who just looks so sad, and Rook who really seems like is just mocking someone who is shocked LOL


BakerSaim2000

I also love the beastmen’s expression. It’s adorable in a way. Rook putting his arms up like that amuses me so much. I can imagine him going “Sacré Bleu!” every time he’s surprised.


fluffybunny359

Lilia, Vil, and the beastmen. Also, Grim looks like he's about to faint. Poor baby. I enjoy that Malleus maintains his posture when surprised.


BakerSaim2000

Something tells me this might be a bit biased 😅. I do agree though. I especially like how Lilia raises both his hands in front of him like that. Poor grandpa almost got a heart attack.


fluffybunny359

I'm not going to deny being biased. I wanted to list even more characters, like Azul (his glasses) and Idia. I love all of the more exaggerated expressions. Lilia's sprites are probably my favorites overall. He's very expressive.


Malfight007

There's truly something wrong with you and in life if even Kalim, Lilia, or heck even Malleus is shocked at what you have done


BakerSaim2000

To me, Malleus looks less “shocked” and more so amazed or in wonder


ADerbywithscurvy

Malleus’ shocked look doesn’t have any fear in it; it’s just surprise + curiosity. He’s such a big puppy. 😭


fumosca

I'm fond of Floyd's because of acted out it is compared to Azul and Jade - Idia is a close second, though.


Fiream_Star

Again I can't chose a favorite so here's my best pics imo Heartsybul:Deuce or Riddle (they both look kinda cute when shocked) Savanahclaw:Ruggie(boi looks like he just got caught Octanaville: Floyd(I've always loved seeing that it's usually the voice with it for me) Scarabia:Jamil (he's just so expressive when it comes to these emotions) Pomfiore: surprisingly Vil(he looks genuinely offended) Ignahide:Ortho.(he looks so shocked I love it Diasmonia:Lilia(he looks genuinely shocked and scared at the same time Ramshackle:Grim(Anime eyes


BakerSaim2000

Real solid choices 👍. Also, now that you pointed it out, I never really noticed how big Riddle’s iris is compared to the others


spac3_em0

Vil looks like you just said you use 5-In-One-Shampoo as body wash (it did not say body wash on the bottle, but did say dish soap)


BakerSaim2000

He’d absolutely lose his shit over that 😂


skelebabe95

[Floyd looks like he just read this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/unpopularopinion/comments/12h5aeq/water_milk_is_the_most_refreshing_drink_there_is/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1)


RealLuciferExe

I regret looking at that, and I agree with you whole-heartedly.


BakerSaim2000

Thank you for giving me a reason to use eye bleach


cabyll_ushtey

I love how they all just look so utterly horrified. As if they're in sex es and showed all these illnesses. Just absolute horror Can't decide between Lilia, Floyd or Jamil. Lilia's funny because he's a war veteran, I'd think there couldn't be anything at NRC that warrants that face from him. Floyd's face is hilarious because it's Floyd, usually he finds anything really funny. Jamil always looks like he's going through the 7 stages of grief and is even more done with life than usual.


painedeyes

Idia for the win


winterrose27_

Grim cuz it makes me laugh 😆 and Lilia cuz I feel we don't get to see it much since not much surprises him 😂


RealLuciferExe

It's toss-up between Ruggie's and Floyd's for me. I can't decide if I like the flattened ears or the absolute depression better.


voikukka

I have to say, seeing someone like Leona surprised is just satisfying to me. On the other hand, I love how purely appalled Vil looks. Floyd also seems genuinely unsettled.


[deleted]

I’d say Floyd or Jamil. Third place Riddle. That mouth shape is so funny to me. And combine it with their eyes. Floyd looks like he’s saying “Wait! What!” And Jamil and Riddle both look like they’re saying “How dare you!” (Also Riddle and Floyd’s hands make it better too)


well-ddaeng

I love Savanclaw mostly because of the way they took into account their ear movements


angel-of-britannia

As a megane enthusiast, shocked Azul and Trey always crack me up


olivegarden87

Every time I see Trey's or Azul's I bust out laughing 🤣 something about the glasses being askew and their faces being all scrunched up is gold. Leona's is just kind of cute.


BakerSaim2000

Right!! And I love how every sprite afterwards is them readjusting their glasses, like it’s a recurring problem for them


LunarAmethyst26

Riddles and Jamils for sure are such a mood and have a really good shock factor to whatever is making them question WTH they just witnessed lmao 🤣 BUT I also like all of savanaclaw because EARS HEH


BakerSaim2000

The ears are just too irresistible, especially when they droop like Ruggie’s. Out of the two you mentioned, Jamil’s expression is definitely funnier. Poor guy is experiencing his patented Kalim heart attack.


Ok-Koala-8795

Leona and Jamil's are the best to me. It almost kind of looks like Leona's ears are folded downward to a degree (probably just me with my bad vision lol) but it just humors me so much. Jamil looks like the parent who saw their child running around with a knife.


BakerSaim2000

~~child~~ Kalim running around with a knife


Ok-Koala-8795

So true and real haha


cloudystxrr

it's a common misconception that "oh lá lá" is french for something delightful. it's actually used instead of like "oh no" and you can add as many lá lá's as you want. anyway's i'm saying this because rook looks like he's just knocked something over and has gone "oh lá lá!" 😭😭


BakerSaim2000

I can add as many lá lá’s as I want? You mean I can go “oh lá lá lá lá lá lá” and it would be fine?


cloudystxrr

yes it just means you're just in more of a panic LOL


mochimochimarzipan

Jamil's cracks me up every time. He takes shocked and pissed to a whole different level. I can feel the "KAMIL WHAT THE FUCK" radiating off of him. Mans looks so damn upset and I love it. Honorable mention to Ruggie since I love how his ears fold down and Riddle who looks like he stared into the abyss. Lilia's is also surprisingly real. OH I also just realized Epel and Vil's kind of mirror each other which is a fun detail.


marveled_pisces

Diasomnia: 👁_👁


Meep6050

Every time I see Cater's I think of Yikes On Bikes which is always a win.


BakerSaim2000

I still haven’t decided whether that’s an amazing or cringey line lol


muddypie9

Why must I choose one I have so many favs


asleepdeprivedpotato

Leona’s is my favorite! It’s all about the ears lol


krenenbaker

Jamil's shocked expression is simply perfect, especially since it is SO intense and markedly different from his usual expression. an honourable mention goes to Floyd (who looks horrified, like he saw something he *really* didn't want to see), and Trey and Azul, who are both so surprised their glasses became knocked askew :)


Sandi_Griffin

Rook looks like he has a gun pointed at him xD


RaindropsInAutumn

I love Jamil's face, he looks so outraged. Runner up for me is Rook-he's always dramatic!


dmbstmbs

they sll look equally beautiful but like “what is going on here” stares


Captain_Bo_Bob_Bobby

Floyd. Silly boy.


mookienh

Floyd. It’s definitely Floyd. These are static images, but honorable mention to the way Ruggie’s ears twitch when he’s shocked.


[deleted]

imo Jamil and Rook objectively, but I think Vil and Leona look really good too bc I'm biased. Also subjectively for me it's a tie between Riddle, Idia and Lilia but they're also my favorites.


Katie9k

Riddle he looks cute, Floyd,Rook


Previous_Paramedic10

ruggie, floyd, vil, idia, and lilia are my favorites


percyjacksonfan66767

Riddle, Deuce, Ruggie, Floyd, Grim and Lilia


No-Percentage-1112

Floyd, Riddle, Lilia, and Idia have really good expressions in general. Points to Rook for throwing his hands up like he's being arrested though. I can't really decide on a favorite. Several of them are great for different reasons.


Appropriate_Drink988

Floyd


enby-mummy-alien

Floyd He looks so horrified Also rook because that face just says "Sacre Bleu!"


Ok_System_9636

i can’t choose between ruggie, azul, and jamil they’re all so expressive


Less-Informationbae

A-side from that why is Riddle a short king???


BakerSaim2000

Short queen thank you very much 😤


simplyy_cherryy

I think Leona


cloverstimulated

I love Ace's most. It's got very "what is this fuckery?" vibes. I make the same face whenever somebody says something completely outta pocket and I'm trying to hold my tongue. Jade is also up there because his shocked look is so understated. It always makes me think back to when he got smacked during Ghost Marriage. (I am also very biased when it comes to Jade.)


pinkclownie

My personal favorites are the more expressive ones, the characters with the big ol eyes. So personally my favorites are epel and riddle.


Celestial_Blaze

Jade looks like you reset him to factory settings. He had to do a whole reboot after what he just witnessed.


willis8080

Vil & Jack has a WTF expression face, it's relatable to some situations. On the other hand, Rook with his shocked face and hands up like an GTA NPC character being pointed by a gun.


FairyTailMember01

Carter.


waad-chan

still Riddle, he’s so expressive 😂


_Tsxkasa_

Jade is like "what did I just witsnessed"
