Shut UP, Hannibal/Anime and Manga

Examples of a reaction in  include:

"Count Brocken: Damn you! How dare the righteous protagonist do something so dirty! You sure about this? The fans will cry, you know. Kouji: Shut up! Take it like a man! Don't try to play innocent with me!"
 * Naruto: Neji gets two of these after his rants about fate and destiny. One from Hinata, and another from Naruto.
 * Also, after Kabuto gives Naruto a "The Reason You Suck" Speech and tries to kill him Naruto's response is to tell him that he refuses to die until he becomes Hokage and drives a Rasengan into Kabuto's stomach.
 * Chapter 495 has the Shut UP, Hannibal to beat almost everything else:
 * And Naruto gave two of these to Pain right at the beginning of their fight. "Didn't I tell you to SHUT THE HELL UP?!"
 * The titular character is practically this trope personified. If any villain tries a Break Them by Talking odds are his response will be to attempt to hit them with something that will hurt.
 * Kin gives a "The Reason You Suck" Speech to Sakura as she's keeping her restrained by the hair. "My my, what soft and shiny hair. But you know what? If you spent a little less time shampooing, and a little more time practicing your jutsu, you might not be in this fix! Hey Zaku, I know what would be fun. Let's make Ms. Beauty Queen watch while you finish off that Sasuke guy!" Sakura's Shut UP, Hannibal moment shortly thereafter, where she cuts her own hair off to free herself, is thereby made much more awesome.
 * Chapter 538:
 * Chapter 576: After multiple pages of
 * Chapter 577:
 * In chapter 581.
 * Kouji Kabuto is a Hot-Blooded, impulsive hero is more liable to punch the villain than explain to him why he or she sucks, but he got some good throughout the years.
 * In the original manga:

"Kouji: Are you stupid? I would never join you!"
 * In Mazinkaiser, after Big Bad Dr. Hell tried talking him into joining him:

"Scirocco: By averting that Colony Drop, you wasted a good chance of getting rid of all those fools whose souls are bound by gravity. Kouji: Oh, don't give us that crap! We won't let you even touch the Earth we live in!"
 * In Super Robot Wars Compact

"Char Aznable: But, if things continue this way, people's hatred will consume the very Earth itself. That's why I'm cutting through to the source of the problem. Kouji: Don't feed me that crap!! I've been listening to this from the start and all you've done is giving a bunch of complicated justifications!!"
 * In Super Robot Wars Alpha 2


 * Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: What do you tell the god-like who has been revealed to  Then explosions happen.
 * Code Geass: In the first season finale, gives one of these to.

"Durandal: But between your world and the world I've been describing, which one do you think people will prefer? Say you shoot me now. What will you do when the world is thrown into chaos again? Kira: I'm ready for that. *lines up to shoot Durandal* I will fight!"
 * Lelouch also delivered a fairly epic one in episode 16 of season one, against Mao, telling him to "Never speak again!" via Geass after he messed with Suzaku.
 * The awesome scene.
 * Again in episode 21 of R2, when
 * In Nightmare of Nunnally, after Mao claims to be saving people by allowing them to die happily with her "The Refrain" Geass, and wants to take control of Nemo from Nunnally in order to prevent herself from being consumed by C.C.'s cells. Alice responds "I have no idea what you're talking about. From my point of view, you're nothing more than a murderer who tried to take Nunnally's life."
 * Kira Yamato of Gundam Seed sucks at this. "No! You are wrong!" does not convey the proper machismo. To be fair though he was kind of meant to be like this: despite being The Messiah he was never much of a talker. And he somewhat makes up for this by making his opponents' defeats look easy.
 * To be honest, he did get sightly better in Gundam SEED Destiny, during the last episode when he threw Durandal's argument for the Destiny Plan back in his face.
 * There's also this scene in which Kira and Mu confront Rau. Rau won't shut up, even if Mu yells him to do while shooting at him. And the Awful Truth Rau revealed turned Kira into Heroic BSOD.

""Even if the world goes mad, I can fight on by believing in myself!""
 * Domon Kasshu from G Gundam has a habit of doing this. Mostly because, as a Hot-Blooded Determinator, he has no interest in talking to his enemies when he can fight. The final villain didn't get further than a single line into his rant before Domon just said "Shut it."
 * In Gundam Wing, Heero does this to both the Big Bad of the TV series and The Dragon in Endless Waltz . In both cases, his opponent is arguing that Humans Are the Real Monsters and/or Sheep who need to be guided down the right path, while Heero argues that all humans, including himself and his opponent, are just as weak, and that they need to have faith that people will be able to make a worthy future on their own. In particular, he gets a suitably epic line in EW:

"Tobia: "That... is... BULLSHIT!" *proceeds to destroy Karas' entire Newtype squad*"
 * Garrod Ran absolutely excels at this trope, in fact this is his most common response to a Motive Rant.
 * Mobile Suit Gundam 00 returns to long speeches; Setsuna makes three in the season 1 finale. And in the second season,
 * Crossbone Gundam even gets in on it, having Tobia Arronax deliver the following rebuttal to Social Darwinist Karas:


 * Death Note: When Light Yagami delivers his Motive Rant at the end of the anime about how his actions have reduced the crime rate and stopped all wars, how does his nemesis respond?

"Negi: Are you sure it's not you who needs to train a little harder?"
 * In the same episode, response to the same rant was to  . In retrospect, it probably was a bad idea for.
 * The Grand Finale to Vandread has the lead characters do this to the Evil Counterpart of
 * A Certain Magical Index: Touma Kamijo does this. A lot. At the climax of almost every arc he plays a major role in. He always comes up with an idealistic, heartfelt, understandable, and awesome response to every villain's Evil Gloating and Motive Rant. Keep in mind that whenever he isn't up against an Omnicidal Maniac, Magnificent Bastard, or something of the like, he's up against a Well-Intentioned Extremist, Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds, Anti-Hero, or someone with a backstory that makes their actions at least somewhat understandable and sympathetic. And Touma always manages to sound like the one that's right. Always.
 * Of note was his response to Vento of the Front's Motive Rant and Freudian Excuse. While he was sympathetic to her, Touma basically went, "If you think that justifies you trying to kill a bunch of people (including children) who had absolutely nothing to do with your tragedy, you're stupid! Time for me to kick your ass!"
 * The ever-stoic Sousuke Sagara does this in reverse order in the first season of Full Metal Panic!: he first hands the villain's ass right back to him and then proceeds to use some... uncharacteristically strong language to tell the world what he thinks of him and his views.
 * Mahou Sensei Negima has Fate taunting Negi about his weakness, how he's unable to protect his friends, how his newly acquired powers won't help him at all, and how he'll never be powerful to put up a real fight... Negi's response is to sock Fate in the gut, and toss off a one-liner:

"Baran: ALLOW ME TO DEMONSTRATE THIS BODY'S FULL POTENTIAL! ONCE THIS CREST IS FULLY RELEASED, I'LL BE STRONG ENOUGH TO MAKE EVEN MOUNTAINS CRUMBLE! Dai: ... so what's your point? I can fight seriously too."
 * And quite a while later,
 * Dragon Quest: Dai's AdventureDai No Daibouken Dai No Daibouken, chapter 108, Dai's decisive battle against Dragon Army Captain Baran, as he unleashes all his power:
 * Dragon Quest: Dai's AdventureDai No Daibouken Dai No Daibouken, chapter 108, Dai's decisive battle against Dragon Army Captain Baran, as he unleashes all his power:

"Spandam: "Look at that symbol, pirates! *point to the flag of the world government* That mark represents the unity of over 170 nations! This is the world! Do you understand how insignificant you are to stand against us!!?" Luffy: "I understand very well. Sogeking, shoot that flag.""
 * Fate/stay night: How does Shiro respond to the end of the Big Bad Kotomine's long Motive Rant? "Oh I get it now, you're just insane."
 * Well, at first Shiro thought he might have some weird reason for the terrible things he did to all those people, but in the end it was just him explaining through a convoluted, wordy speech that he likes to see people suffer. It was pretty funny, actually.
 * In Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, the villain  might have had a gun pointed at Rena as  but that didn't stop Rena from.
 * In One Piece Luffy makes it pretty clear that he does shit because he wants to, and for no other reason. In response to Crocodile's list of reasons why he was fighting a losing battle, and being naive for trying to save everyone, Luffy subverts this trope slightly by agreeing with him. Having effectively shocked Hannibal into shutting up, he proceeds to beat the shit out of him while explaining that Vivi was his friend, and since if he didn't help she was gonna kill herself trying to save the country, he would try to render that unnecessary.
 * Then there's the instance when the Straw Hats face the leader of a secret government agency. His attempt to intimidate them fail miserably:


 * One of the best examples ever in this series came with Luffy's second battle with Katakuri in the Mirro-World, during the Whole Cake Island arc. The two were pretty much easily matched until Katakuri's sister Flampe intervenes with some subordinates and has them open fire on Luffy, thinking her brother would appreciate the help. He does not. Katakuri is more the Noble Demon type, often to the Honor Before Reason point, and is angry that she does that, and actually stabs himself in order to make the fight more fair, removing the scarf covering his mouth (revealing the shark-like teeth he always keeps hidden) to tell his sister to go away. Naturally, Flampe (who is not even half as big as Katakuri, by the way) starts telling him off and insulting him, only to get a Shut Up, Hannibal from both him and Luffy by means of their Haoshoku Haki. Yep, Flampe receives this from a hero and a villain simultaneously!

"Envy: Pathetic? Lemme ask you something. Don't you humans enjoy watching others suffer, watching fools dance around like puppets? That's why you start wars isn't it? Mustang: I do enjoy watching foolish creatures dance around like puppets on a string. Especially you homunculii. (later) Envy: Oh! So you torched an innocent woman then? Man, that's brutal! How'd you break it to her family? Were you in tears? Or were you too angry with yourself to even-- Mustang: For the love of God, shut up, idiot."
 * In Houshin Engi, this was done rather brilliantly by Taikoubou (when he ) after his fight with Jyoka. Jyoka started giving him the the breaking speech about how, and his response? "No. You're wrong idiot, die." It doesn't get more blunt than that.
 * During the final showdown with Dr. Scalietti in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS, Fate is overwhelmed by his Break Them by Talking (and a couple of painful reveals). Then her adopted kids interfere and tell her just how awesome she actually is. Her next action? Take down the Doctor's superpowered bodyguards, smash himself into a wall, and calmly declare "You are under arrest".
 * Played with in Gate Keepers. After Big Bad Kageyama makes his big speech about humanity being full of maggots and what has to be done to properly cleanse the world, Ukiya skips past his use of "sophisticated arguments" and says he's going overboard. This actually seems to throw him a little off-balance. Then the end of the episode happens.
 * Used again in the last episode, with more of an outright "shut up" feel. Kageyama sets a new personal record for nihilism with a rant about how all of humanity's hopes for peace never had a chance, to which Ukiya responds, "Is that all you have to say?!" while throwing a monster of a roundhouse punch. Then the punch misses...
 * Envy of Fullmetal Alchemist keeps trying to lecture Mustang, but...


 * And Mustang keeps on shutting him up all through the battle with him while kicking his ass.
 * Mustang had two crowning moments when it came to this trope. The first was when he incinerated Envy's tongue mid-speech and the second was when Envy tried to go One-Winged Angel and, as Envy mockingly claimed he couldn't hold back, Mustang incinerated his eyes.
 * And the one who put nail on his coffin? Ed, of all people, by giving a heartwarming talk about Envy's motive.
 * A little later on, as Ed fights Pride, the latter breaks out into a rant about how Ed isn't prepared to fight an enemy like himself. Ed's response? He headbutts him and precedes to curb stomp him.
 * When Edward confronts Shou Tucker over his use of his wife and daughter as subjects in his experiments, Tucker says Edward is just like him, because Edward used alchemy to try to bring his mother back. Edward proceeds to beat Tucker repeatedly while upset and screaming "I'M NOT LIKE YOU! I'M NOT! I'M NOT!"
 * When they first fight Scar notes that both he and Edward use their arms for destruction. Edward answers "Don't you start! We're nothing alike!"
 * D.Gray-man: Cross has a rather hilarious and extremely awesome Shut UP, Hannibal moment, here. See, that's why you don't try to lecture a Jerkass with a gun.
 * Chapter 193; paraphrased:


 * Also chapter 204 (complete with a genuine Slasher Smile delivered by Allen himself:

"Jan: What up, bitch! (gunshot) Integra: That's quite enough of that. I'm pissed off."
 * 20th Century Boys has a particularly epic one when is confronted by a Card-Carrying Villain laughing about all the murders he's carried out. After he's done ranting,  spends two whole issues deconstructing the man's entire worldview, and leaves him weeping and suicidal.
 * At the end of Inuyasha, Sesshoumaru's response?  That is pure freaking ownage.
 * Also, deals one to Akago (the infamous demon baby) that's combined with . Suits well, since Akago's recent Hannibal Lectures were centered on  Definitely a huge Crowning Moment of Awesome.
 * Shinichi-Conan of Detective Conan has little patience for Motive Rants. He rejects each and every Motive Rant—even ones the audience might find sympathetic.
 * He's even once shut up a suspect into surrendering to the police with his own Break Them by Talking (in Gratuitous English, even!)
 * Kogoro Mouri/Richard Moore settled one himself, too, as a corollary to his Crowning Moment of Awesome. When the murderer of the case, a professional judo fighter and policeman as well as a huge 180 cms hulking pile of muscle, rushes at the detective, an amateur who purposely avoided all tournaments because of stage fright, he casually flips him over his shoulder and to the ground. The murderer thinks he's gotten stronger over the years. Nope, in Kogoro's words, the murderer just got weaker.
 * The Kindaichi Case Files is a tad more sympathetic towards a Motive Rant (unless the suspect was a Jerkass), but Kindaichi's response to many a subsequent suicide attempt has been pretty blunt.
 * In the second OVA of Hellsing, Jan Valentine has spent an hour of screentime basically massacring people and insulting the survivors, insulting the Roundtable Conference in general and Integra in particular over the radio. At the end of the episode, Jan has finally been cornered, when Integra walks up, leading to this classic exchange:

"Luke: Shut up! You're just the Hellsing family's toy, a dog not even fit to call himself a vampire, a- Alucard: SILENCE! I'm a dog? Then you're dog food."
 * While that's going on, Alucard has just stomped Jan's brother Luke, and is berating him over how weak and pathetic he is, prompting Luke to angrily shout him down, and try to tell Alucard why he sucks. It doesn't go well.

"Hachigen: In Soul Society, there are no gods except us shinigami, the gods of death. As such, it is difficult to take the seriousness of your claim. So, forgive us for our disbelief, "God of Hueco Mundo"."
 * It happens in Pokémon, too. Just before the big fight towards the end of the first movie, Mewtwo is giving his big Motive Rant about how he and his genetically engineered Pokémon are going to exterminate all other life on the planet. Up comes Ash Ketchum, with a horde of "normal" Pokémon and spitefully declares, "You can't do this. I won't let you." He then tries to punch out Mewtwo.
 * Another example of this trope happens during episode 35 (never shown outside of Japan). While Team Rocket is in the middle of their motto, Kaiser starts shooting at them repeatedly, leading to a Bullet Dance performed by the trio.
 * In one Diamond and Pearl episode, Paul cuts Team Rocket off mid-motto (to their outrage).
 * In the Duelist Kingdom arc of Yu-Gi-Oh!, Anzu comforts Yugi, who has just entered a Heroic BSOD after having just stopped Atemu from calling a game-winning attack that would have led to Kaiba to make good on a suicide threat if he were to lose, leading to the latter winning instead. She tells him that his grandfather would not have wanted to be saved that way. Kaiba then interjects saying that Yugi should have went through with the attack. (In the manga, Kaiba even says that had the roles been reversed, Kaiba would have made the attack). Anzu retorts by saying that he showed him compassion by sparing his life. From here, it becomes a case of Alternative Character Interpretation, when Anzu goes into friendship rant mode, and you also consider that Kaiba has been doing this to save his little brother Mokuba. Naturally, given Anzu's reputation, some people have sided with Kaiba. Objectively though, it can be agreed that instead of taunting Yugi/Yami, Kaiba shouldn't have been so secretive there and that berating Yugi for sparing his life was a dick move. To be fair, at that point Anzu did NOT know about Mokuba being a hostage, and neither did the rest. They only came to know that quite a while later, and Yugi even cries when he sees this.
 * When Rex Raptor joins the side of the Orichalcos and gives a Motive Rant about why he did and why he's trying to kill Joey, Joey basically retorts, "You sold out the Human race just because I beat you at a CHILDREN'S CARD GAME. FUCK YOU."
 * In Kaiba's second duel with Alister, Alister boasts that Kaiba couldn't possibly win in time to stop the plane from crashing, even if he ended his turn right now. Kaiba's simple reply: "Then end it already!"
 * During the final battle in Dancougar Nova,
 * In the Neon Genesis Evangelion manga version, the Angel Armisael attempts to defeat Rei by demotivating her. It speaks to Rei in a vision using her body and voice, telling her that her heart is evil and that she wants to keep Shinji for herself and hates the currently comatosed Asuka for diverting Shinji's attention away. In Rei's form, Armisael goes to "be with Shinji", as is Rei's selfish desire (in this case, "being with him" would kill him.) But, after a moment of crying, Rei snaps out of it and reverses her Eva's AT field, pulling the screaming Rei-Armisael away from Shinji. Then, as a way of saying "You are not me and you do not control my heart!", Rei
 * Hey, what about End Of Evangelion? She shows her disagreement with Gendo's plan by freakin' cutting off his right hand at the wrist!
 * And in the manga version, she tears Adam's eye out of Gendo's hand, sending blood spraying everywhere.
 * When Bleach's Ulquiorra is going to explain to Orihime why she hesitated in protecting Ichigo, Ichigo stops him with a simple "Shut up, it doesn't matter."
 * Then in the Fake Karakura Town battle, as Barragan gave an epic Break Them by Talking about how everything ages and dies, how his power is absolute, and the folly of challenging God, specifically "The God of Hueco Mundo" (himself). Then when vizard Ushoda Hachigen severs his own decaying right hand and placed it in his "stomach" with his kidou. As Barragan rots from his own attack, Hachigen gives this line:

"Grimmjow attacks him, while Ichigo's back is turned, after a Reason You Suck Speech and"
 * Ichigo gives one to Grimmjow after Orihime tells him tearfully not to get hurt anymore.

"Komamura: Don't let him get to you. Provocation is his speciality ... If you lose yourself, you'll lose your life. Rest easy. I know why the captains sent you straight down here from Hueco Mundo. You have not seen Aizen's shikai. We will fight to protect you."
 * Aizen tries quite a few Hannibal Lectures in Fake Karakura Town. None of them seem to work.
 * Komomura indirectly gives a Shut UP, Hannibal to Aizen after he lectured Ichigo.

"Hitsugaya: Anyone who raises their sword in violence doesn't deserve to be called a captain of the Gotei 13. Aizen: Didn't you just say a captain shouldn't raise his sword in violence? Hitsugaya: I'll gladly give up my position to do violence to you."
 * Paraphrasing his brief conversation with Hitsugaya:
 * Aizen does some MEH-crossing and Hitsugaya gets pissed*

"Yamamoto: I have no interest in your foolish arguments."
 * Yamamoto gives us a very succinct one.

""Aizen...You talk too much.""
 * joins the fray with a simple

"Ichigo: Screw you. I'm tried of you idiots trying to shake my resolve like this."
 * After 300 chapters of being Smug and curbstomping everyone, Aizen recieves a really awesome one in chapter 417
 * Ichigo continues to Shut UP, Hannibal Aizen completely throughout the fight while owning the shit out of him and then nails him with a Final Getsuga Tenshou to attempt to take this trope to it's logical conclusion. After Aizen survives that, and proceeds to start going on another "The Reason You Suck" Speech, Urahara of all people takes this one Up to Eleven by shutting up Aizen with a sealing kidou and explaining to Aizen that the Hougyoku no longer sees him as it's master.
 * Kyoraku does this to Aizen a couple times by trying to slash him from behind while he's talking.
 * Renji delivers a "The Reason You Suck" Speech to Ichigo during their first encounter. At one point during the speech, Renji closes his eyes as he mentions that Ichigo couldn't hope to put a scratch on a real Soul Reaper. Ichigo takes the opportunity to place a small scratch on Renji's chin.
 * Kubo makes a comeback with two specific versions of this in the latest chapter. In the first one In the second one,  Needless to say, Kubo still has this down pat.
 * Ichigo seems to collect these moments. In chapter 474, Ichigo's response?:
 * And he lampshades how the villains always give these kind of speeches.
 * And he lampshades how the villains always give these kind of speeches.

"Tsubasa: You're wrong, Hyuuga-kun! Because soccer is MY DREAM!"
 * In Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, Kurogane earns a Crowning Moment of Awesome by telling Fei Wang Reed to "shut your freaking trap." He and Fai then happily argue over who gets first dibs to fight him. Sadly subverted in that Then reinvoked in Chapter 230 when it looks like.
 * In Digimon Season 3, has built itself up into an Eldritch Abomination hell-bent on wiping out humanity on the grounds that Humans Are the Real Monsters. It has been swatting down every attempt to stop or even harm it with minimal effort, mind-raping   for some time, and, in an incredible Tear Jerker, has struck down  after he went all-out in an attempt to rescue her. Takato and Guilmon, fused into Gallantmon, are one of the last lines of defense keeping the thing contained and holding it off from annihilating humanity while the other heroes try a last-ditch plan to stop it.  howls at them "YOU DO NOT DESERVE TO EXIST!". Stuck in the void, Guilmon asks his partner whether they do or not, to which Takato replies that they do "AND IT'S ABOUT TIME WE PROVED IT!" after which Gallantmon responds to the Break Them by Talking by ramming his fist into an area roughly equivalent to  throat and yelling back "WE DO DESERVE TO EXIST! YOU DON'T."
 * In the earlier parts of the first Captain Tsubasa series, then-Jerkass Hyuuga harshly bitches Tsubasa out and tells him that he's a Spoiled Brat who's got no business into soccer. What is Tsubasa's reply?

"Balalaika: I said KNEEL! * BANG*"
 * Tsubasa's girlfriend Sanae pulls one on . When he tells her that Tsubasa doesn't care about her and that's why , she immediately says "That's a lie, so shut it!"
 * Umineko no Naku Koro ni, third arc: counter-speech to Leviathan of Envy. To summarize: "I see your envious childhood and raise you " Then while Leviathan is shocked at the one-upping of her envy, a sin that she's supposed to be the embodiment of,  When Beatrice didn't understand why Battler wasn't enjoying watching the murders.While she's talking, Battler slaps her, and calls her a monster.Beatrice counters it, however, by lying to Battler saying that she had turned good.
 * Black Lagoon's Balalaika gives three words and a sound effect to deal with one of the creepiest Ax Crazy little psychos you'll ever meet.

"Mikami: You're no different from an immature child who hates school and thus decides to burn down his school!"
 * Ghost Sweeper Mikami's Ashtaroth has been scheming Mikami found that out while in the galaxy egg. As a result, she's able to Shut Up Hannibal him just before his Motive Rant.

"Yuki: Don't you ever talk that way to Honda-san, you lowlife."
 * Happens in Dragon Ball Z when Goku hits Jeice/Jeese right in the face just before he launches into his taunting speech.
 * Happens several times in a row in the same scene in Dragonball Z Abridged. Including while Jeice is trying to remember what to do when someone is punching you in the face.
 * Future Trunks and his Curb Stomp Battle with Frieza and his father, King Cold. He had the latter, who, naturally, was even stronger than Frieza, begging him for mercy when he did this.
 * Joker became quite fond of Hannibal Lectures during R.O.D the TV, and since most of his opponents are such sweet women who always want to see the best in everybody, he always seems to make a lot of headway. Then, Anita makes a pretty clever realization: "Don't be tricked, you idiot! He's the bad guy!"
 * Haru does this in Rave Master when Lucia points out that, technically, they're both kings, and goes on to say they need no friends, only men with the mental capacity to kneel.
 * In Muhyo and Roji's Bureau of Supernatural Investigation, as Teeki, confident in having won after Julio puts the heroes under a curse that will kill them if they move, goes on about how people are unable to go against their fate and how Enchu learned that for himself when his mother died. Roji declares that it is a lie, states that Enchu couldn't bear his grief, and then dispels the curse.
 * In Berserk  locks the door on Guts and company, then rants about how much he'll enjoy torturing them. Guts responds by stabbing him through the door, causing it to explode. He then falls down a bottomless pit.
 * Guts also does this to the Godhand during the Eclipse. "I said shut up!"
 * Utena does this several times per arc.
 * Texhnolyze: Ichise sharply disagrees with Kano's nihilism..
 * Monster: Lunge's response to.

 * In Pokémon Special, N says that he can't be beaten because he can hear the voices of Pokemon, and that the Pokedex is evil because many Pokemon were captured for the sake of its research. Black tells him to shut up, saying that the Pokedex is a tool to better understand the Pokemon he loves and that he's damn proud to own one. Not to mention that he declares that even if he can't hear his Pokemon's "voices", he still knows what they want.
 * Cure Marine delivers a good one to Kumojacky. "Let me have some fun! Cure Marine!" *gets punched*

 * A villainous version happens in Transformers Cybertron; when Starscream attempts to take the Omega Lock from Galvatron, Galvatron starts up with a speech about how weak Starscream is, only for Starscream to interrupt with a lecture of his own.
 * Persona 4: The Animation has a brilliant one in the fight against Shadow Mitsuo. Earlier on, the villain had trapped protagonist Yu Narukami in a Lotus Eater Machine, taunting him by saying that Yu is "empty" and that he has no true bonds of friendship with other people. Fortunately for Yu, his oldest friend on the team physically pulls him out of the illusion, and as the rest of the team creates an opening, Yu defiantly states "I... am not empty!" before he systematically breaks down the Shadow's defenses and pulls a Won't Work On Me on each and every one of its attacks. Even better, he accomplishes this with each of the various Persona he had obtained so far, all of them being from a different arcana of the tarot representing a bond he had made with another person, then finishing the battle with Izanagi, his own Persona, proving that unlike the truly empty Mitsuo, he does have friends and they are the source of his strength.
 * In chapter 8 of Pandora Hearts, the Will of the Abyss angrily demands to know why Oz cares about Alice and wants to save her, even though he doesn't really know her, and also demands that he love her [Will of the Abyss] instead.

 * In Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch, The Dragon is explaining to the heroines how their defeat will help her gaining rank among the Big Bad servants. The heroines end yelling in perfect synchronization how much they don't give a shit (yes, the language was pretty rude compared to the rest of the manga at this point) about her life.
 * Reborn and Tsuna do this to Bermuda in Katekyo Hitman Reborn.
