Line 80:
* Despite all of the fanservice, ''[[Divergence Eve]]'' is full of this, not too much on the level of ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Evangelion]]'', but still some of the stuff that happens in that show is pretty fucked up. Poor Misaki...
* ''[[Hellsing]]'': This is Zorin Blitz's specialty. In the manga and the 7th OVA she performs a [[Moral Event Horizon|particularly cruel]] one of these on Seras. She delves deep into Seras's memories, forcing her to relive her painful childhood, where she had to watch her parents be murdered by gangsters and her mother's corpse being raped. While Seras is trapped in the illusion, Zorin hacks off her arm, stabs her through the back, and [[Eye Scream|slices her eyes]]. She tries this again when Seras is attacking her for murdering and insulting Pip but Seras overcomes it {{spoiler|because Pip begged her to suck him dry before he died. Since this ''was'' a [[Last Request]], she did it, and it awakened her into a true vampire; she now had Pip's soul within her, and it helped block Zorin's second attempt at Mind Rape.}}
* In episode 6 of ''[[Angel Beats!]]'' {{spoiler|Naoi}} attempts to use his hypnosis ability to implant fake happy memories into {{spoiler|Yuri's}} mind so that she can disappear. Fortunately for everyone, things don't exactly go as planned.
** Done to {{spoiler|Hinata}} in Episode 7 when {{spoiler|Naoi}} hypnotizes him to think he's worse than a clothespin. Surprisingly, [[Hilarity Ensues]].
** Naoi attempts to do so again to Hinata in Episode 11, except this time to make him think that he is toilet paper. Fortunately, Otonashi stops him.
Line 111:
* Gauron of ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'' loves to do this to all of his intended victims. Sousuke seems to be his most consistent target.
* ''[[Death Note]]'' at the end of the series, {{spoiler|[[Jerkass|Near]] does this to [[Villain Protagonist|Light]]. As per stated in his plan to totally defeat him, separate him from all his allies, and rub it in his face.}} In the manga this is examined in ''painful'' detail drawing the psychological trauma in these terms, complete with the unfunny [[Clothing Damage]]. Regardless on whether you believe he deserved it or not, it was totally not cool.
* This is how {{spoiler|Souji Mikage and Mamiya Chida}} recruit the Black Rose Duelists in ''[[Revolutionary Girl Utena]]'', preying on people who are [[Heroic BSOD|at the lowest points]] [[Despair Event Horizon|of their lives]] and [[Manipulative Bastard|using their insecurities]] to make them join the Black Rose cause.
** Even worse, {{spoiler|Akio and Anthy (who was actually posing as poor Mamiya) inflict this ''on Mikage himself'' in the end of the Black Rose arc.}}
* ''[[Black Butler|Kuroshitsuji II]]'': After he killed Alois, Claude abducted Ciel, drugged him, practically drowned him, and overall screwed with his head to accomplish his goals.
* In ''[[Naruto]]'' {{spoiler|the Kyuubi's}} psychic assault failed and it was defeated, leaving him little influence over Naruto. Seeing no other way to harass Naruto, he turned to [[Hannibal Lecture|criticizing Naruto's goals and beliefs]], trying to convince him he would fail before he even began. Naruto [[Shut UP, Hannibal|told him to shut the hell up]].
