Line 2:
* Lan goes into an angst session roughly once per ''[[Mega Man Battle Network]]'' game, but he only got ''hit'' for it once, by Baryl ([[Badass|awesome]] human general regardless) in ''Battle Network 5'' after Mega Man gets possessed by the [[Enemy Within]]. In ''Battle Network 6'', when the Cyber Beast is possessing Mega Man, Heatman or Aquaman likewise hits him back into control.
** Geo follows in his footsteps by doing the exact same thing in the [[Mega Man Star Force]] series whenever someone betrays (or appears to) him . Here, the [[Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!]] comes in the form of being promptly and scathingly chewed out. Doesn't always work though.
* In ''[[Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories]]'', Adell does this to Rozalin once to snap her out of {{spoiler|her shift into her [[Super-Powered Evil Side]]}}. He applies [["Shut Up" Kiss|a different method]] the next time it happens, though.
* In ''[[Skies of Arcadia]]'', [[Evil Genius|de Loco]] has a lieutenant whose entire job is to shout this and shake him around when needed. [[Running Gag|Which is pretty often]].
* Done TONS of times at one point in ''[[Tales of Rebirth]]''. After {{spoiler|driven berserk and attacking his teammates}}, Veigue starts blaming Agarte for being behind him being separated from Claire all the time. Until Tytree tells him to come to the beach with him. When Veigue arrives, Tytree gave him a punch in the face, and then Veigue hit back, and so on. So much until there's a mini battle where you control Veigue to punch on Tytree's face, while he'll do the same (no conclusion). Only until the end of the battle and the interference of his friends that Veigue finally gets a hold of himself.
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''?
