Dec 13, 2012 at 18:25 comment added кяαzєя This is just speculation, but it probably developed from drawing one larger drop to save time (as a small sweat drops near the eye was commonly used) in manga (like in the old Tezuka, or Doraemon works). The big, cartoony drop might have been popularized relatively recently (within last 20-30 years?).
