== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* Sayaka to Kouji from ''[[Mazinger Z]]''. Given that Kouji was the poster boy for tactless, [[Idiot Hero]], and Sayaka a [[Tsundere]], he found himself in the receiving end of these rather often.
** And Jun to Tetsuya from ''[[Great Mazinger]]''. Given that Tetsuya [[Took a Level Inin Jerkass]] when he was angry or upset, and Jun had little patience for stupidity, it is not surprising. A good example happens in the last episodes: Tetsuya is jealousy from Kouji, thinking Kouji will replace him and then everybody will forget about him. When Jun tried to reassure him it would not happen, he accused her of wanting to replace him with Kouji, too. She slapped him hard. Given that Jun had spent the whole series chasing after him while Tetsuya remained oblivious, it is entirely understandable.
** And Maria from ''[[UFO Robo Grendizer]]'' also gave Kouji some of these.
* Done a few times in ''[[School Days]]''.
Line 70:
** Subverted with Princess Otohime when she slaps a thief for stealing. While the slap did quite some damage to the thief, it also broke her hand in the process.
* [[Les Yay]] variant in ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]] StrikerS'': Teana Lanster frequently manhandles her [[Shorttank]] partner Subaru Nakajima whenever she does or says something that [[Tsundere|ticks her off]] (Which is, well, often). Pretty amazing, since Teana's just a [[Smart Girl]] [[The Gunslinger|gunslinger]] while Subaru's a [[Lightning Bruiser]] {{spoiler|[[Super Prototype|Type-Zero]] [[Hollywood Cyborg|Cyborg]].}}
* In ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'', Sousuke has been beaten up often enough by Kaname to break out in a cold sweat as soon as he realizes she's angry about something. Even though Sousuke is a [[One-Man Army|ridiculously skilled]] mercenary and Kaname is just a very athletic high school girl. And, as the second season clearly demonstrated, the only thing Sousuke apparently needs to keep kicking ass is being reminded what ''real'' pain is by Kaname. [[Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!|And damn, she's good at that]].
** Likewise, [[Lovable Sex Maniac|Kurz Weber]] takes a lot of well-earned abuse from Melissa Mao for his antics. In this case, however, it's much more sensible, given that Mao is a former Marine and Kurz's hand-to-hand combat skills are comparatively a bit lacking.
* Miyabi nails Kaoru with this in the second episode of ''[[Ai Yori Aoshi]]'', due to Kaoru's [[Accidental Pervert]] moment with Aoi and Miyabi's [[Mama Bear]] reaction.
Line 145:
 
== [[Literature]] ==
* In ''[[Harry Potter (Franchise)/Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows|Harry Potter]]'', {{spoiler|Ron gets this from Hermione when he returns}}.
* ''[[Honor Harrington]]'' does this several times to ''goad a hitman and professional duellist into challenging her to a duel'' to save his own honour. If you know anything about [[Action Girl|Honor]], you can [[Curb Stomp Battle|guess how that went for him]].
* Happen all the time in [[A Song of Ice and Fire]]. Cersei in particular is fond of it; subverted nicely once when Tyrion decides he's tired of taking it quietly. There's also a very literal, gender-flipped version with Jaime; when he gets his golden hand, he occasionally uses it for this purpose.
