Line 23:
* In Claude's story path in ''[[Star Ocean the Second Story]]'', he does this to Leon after {{spoiler|the poor kid assumes everyone was wiped out in the shipwreck, including their friends and his parents, and starts screaming "I wish I were dead!"}}
* In a Variation/Subversion/Whatever, in ''[[Super Robot Wars Original Generation]]'', [[The Generic Guy|Russel Bergman]] does this to Katina Tarask, which goes [[Hot-Blooded]] and rampaging through enemy fleet like an amateur, emphasizes in HOT although it's just her personality, just overloaded somewhat. He snapped and deliver her a good Brightslap-no-ken for good.
** This also happened to Calvina Coulange in ''[[Super Robot Wars]] J'' (Straight play of [[Heroic BSOD]]) in wake of {{spoiler|finding out her boyfriend and old pupil was alive, but was actually the bad guys and sent her in a traumatic trance in the past}}, resulting her going almost batshit to her [[Unwanted Harem|three female friends]]. And since Bright Noa was absent... [[Full Metal Panic!|Melissa Mao]] comes in and delivers the <s>Bright</s> Mao Slap to straight Calvina up.
** An iconic scene in ''[[Super Robot Wars 4|Super Robot Wars F]]''. Bright Slaps [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Shinji Ikari]] for chickening out to use the EVA due to lots of psychological issues. Shinji responses ''just'' like Amuro in the original series: "Not even my father hits me!"
*** Which is ironic, since in the actual series... ''almost everyone "except"'' his father hits him. To count, Toji, Misato, Asuka, and even ''Rei Ayanami''. Maybe they really wanted to make a homage to ''Mobile Suit Gundam''?
*** Or it had something to do with the fact that everyone in SRW looks up to Bright as a leader. Bright was a better father figure than Gendo without a doubt. It's one of the reasons SRW Shinji becomes so Badass.
** Midway through [[Super Robot Wars Z|Super Robot Wars Z2-2]], Crowe goes berserk after {{spoiler|[[Player Punch|Esther's transformation into a DAMON]] }}, and it takes {{spoiler|Rand (and his giant wrench)}} administering a beatdown severe enough to ''blow up his mech'' to get him back under control.
* In ''[[Wild ArmsARMs]] 3'', after your last battle against Maya's party, both Virginia and Maya got into an argument, in which Virginia proclaimed that she can "reach her (Maya)". Being the somewhat spoiled but insecure princess that Maya was, she taunted Virginia over it. Cue the slap. Completely subverted when Maya blocks Virginia's slap with her hand. {{spoiler|And then [[Double Subverted]] when Virginia simply kept pushing her hand until it touches Maya's cheek}}.
{{quote|'''Virginia:''' See? I told you I can reach you.}}
* In ''[[Resident Evil]] 3'', in one of the various story paths, Carlos starts to panic about not getting out of the city. Jill responds by slapping him, which causes him to run off. Later he has a [[Big Damn Heroes]] moment after Nemesis poisons Jill.
