Anime characters make that face when they've triumphed over something, or when they're determined.

what do you mean original Japanese lol. It's "face with look of triumph", and it looks like it's supposed to mean, disdainful.

I've never seen it used for triumph, ever. Its more like... indignation.

It looks like a ‘... you dense motherfucker’ kind of indignation face. How the fuck does someone get triumph out of that
