Which characters have the most unique eyes / face design?
Toriyama kind of sticks to a template of sorts but are there characters he creates that go outside of his typical norms in the face area in particular? Feel free to share below. Preferably with pics.

Does it have to be characters designed by Toriyama?

Re: Which characters have the most unique eyes / face design?
I would dare say that Beers's design has the most unique face.
It combines Freeza's down angled eyes, which were flat on his face, with Roshi/Jackie Chun's, which pop out from his or are sunken in, because it helps Beers's overall frame, which isn't skinny like grey Boo's, but toned and skin tight. The mouth helps this case the way that I justified it since it also protudes from his face (it is a snout after all). Great design!

Re: Which characters have the most unique eyes / face design?
There are few characters i can think of (not Toriyama-only) that have pretty unique faces compared to some other characters imo:
Mr Popo (it's very simple yet you won't ever mistake him for any other character)
Cell 1st form
Mutchy
Pui pui
Piano (for an actual character rather than some random animal)
Haze Shenron
Fin (Gogeta's body, as his pure form looks like Kid Buu)
+Beerus as mentioned above, he's pretty original as well

I would've posted Imperfect Cell but someone mentioned it, dude looks straight out of a horror movie. In terms of unique faces, I think Upa also deserves a mention, the little guy looks more like a Peanuts character and is quite androgynously designed, as Kuririn pointed out when they met.
Beyond Toriyama, there's tonnes of designs in the Heroes sub-franchise that look absolutely nothing like Dragon Ball characters. I won't deny some of them are cool, but you'd definitely never see them in anything drawn by Akira Toriyama. Out of all of them, I think the most un-Toriyama design by far is Sealas's transformed state, though some of the Demon Realm characters come close.

Can be non Toriyama as well.
Also are there any women with unique faces?

Android 18 and Blonde Launch always looked quite a bit different from the usual "Bulma with a different hair color" roster of Toriyama women.UltraInstinctRorikon wrote: ↑Sat Mar 13, 2021 3:17 am Can be non Toriyama as well.

Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

I'd say Fused Zamasu after getting corrupted, he has a very unique design:
There's so much going on with this design. Obviously half his face is scarred and turns into that purple goo, while the other half is still beautiful, but his damaged eye also changes colour, the iris becomes smaller while the pupil gets much bigger and seems to almost be coming out, and he loses the eyebrow. He also gets fangs, which he didn't have before and is a nice touch to represent his demonic descent.

Tenshinhan has a bit pointed eye shape and a buff face that is quite rare for a Toriyama design. And the third eye is quite distinctive

I just noticed... Upa looks like Peasuke. His eyes are more circular here, but they're not always this circular. They're often the same as Upa's.LoganForkHands73 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 12, 2021 7:17 pm I would've posted Imperfect Cell but someone mentioned it, dude looks straight out of a horror movie.
