Smile You're Evil Cliche
Every character where you can clearly see his individual teeth when he smiles, talks, or opens his mouth is evil

All the males fall for the main female or all the females fall for the main male clichePrevalent in lots of Harem Anime. A cup/glass of some sort of beverage but is usually tea cracking for no reason is a sign that something horrible will or is happening to the protaganist(s) clicheThe one I remember off the top of my head is Temari from Naruto stopping by for tea after leaving Konoha. That happened to Tsunade too and then she won the lottery. Anytime she wins, something bad's about to happen. XD

Haha, I love Tsunade she's just so funny! xD The cute little girl characters always have an equally cute animal sidekick (sp?) who may or may not have some awesome power cliche *cough*

There is always a character that drinks too much, or has another vice problem, like gambling.
Most of the time I see this cliche' with characters who are alcoholics, and usually drink HUGE amounts that would probably kill normal people. Drinking may even be a way these people gain some sort of edge.

^ And even though they have a problem, half of them don't try to quit their problem. XD

Some of them might even say something pretty profound while intoxicated, only to wake up sober and unspectacular the next morning. They tend to have alot of hangovers too.

Maybe they'll be so drunk they'll be sick and then they'll strike up a random conversation with another major character and this conversation will reveal something very important to the readers. Afterword, said drunk person will be sober. XD

OMG, anime physics!!! Pics are explained in order of number: 1. Small characters can beat up bigger characters 2. They never run out of ammunition 3. The hero never gets hit 4. Tons of stuff that they think about before dying 5. Wooden swords can cut through metal (or anything for that matter) 6. Whenever they get hit, it'll get shown by at least three different camera angles 7. They all have shiny super powers 8. Fatal wounds are not enough in order to kill some of them 9. Whenever they yell "HENSHIN", everything else stops so they can transform/change/morph/wear suit 10. Chicks always prefer the tougher guys (that's a regular world's rule as well) 11. Minimal clothing is enough to protect anime chicks from damage 12. Objects appear from outta nowhere 13. They use stupid disguises and nobody recognizes them

That's actually called fan service. Not too many guys want to see what a REAL female warrior/fighter/ninja/soldier would look like. When playing a masculine role, a woman still has to maintain the visual basic factors that compose her femininity--so says entertainment...

Men Don't Have Nipples, But Apparently Women Do
This is why women are always censored but they really wouldn't have anything there, if they followed the anatomy of a man. XD

Maybe that's like a shoujo rule or something. Like, isn't there Masha, Shi-chan/Nyake, that come-outta-the computer thing, Fin, Duke and Blanca...

A female, usually the leading female, has the role of mother/older sister figure and will hook up with the main male character more often than not.
Just throwing in another thing that's used often in anime (but I guess it could be used for just about any form of entertainment.
