** Also happened in ''Beast Machines'' to Silverbolt, by Megatron, via Jetstorm. If you doubt it, compare his description of being Jetstorm to ''[[Carrie]]'s'' mom describing being raped physically by her husband.
*** But... Post-Jetstorm Silverbolt said he ''liked'' it. ;_;
*** Megatron did this to amnesia!Starscream in ''Energon'', to get Starscream back on the Decepticon side. It was also a [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|fairly obvious metaphor]] for something... ''else''.
**** What? You mean when Megatron traps Starscream in a darkened room, then repeatedly commands his struggling and protesting victim to "say his name" while simultaneously stabbing him with his [[Freud Was Right|massive sword?]] What could possibly be suspect about that?
** [[Transformers the Movie|And looking back to 1986]], this is what Unicron has to do to Galvatron to enforce his loyalty, because Galvatron is Megatron wearing a new body and name, and Megatron is mentally incapable of being second banana.
* Vlad just loves to do this to ''[[Danny Phantom]]''. Danny later on begged for it, in an alternate future after everyone he ever cared for {{spoiler|died [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero|because of]] [[Self Made Orphan|him]]}}. [[Big Bad|Vlad Masters]] respected his wishes and ''removed his humanity''. What happens from there is ''ten years'' of [[Moral Event Horizon]] material. He steals Vlad's [[Our Ghosts Are Different|ghost half]] and murders his human self/shell. Luckily, it is [[Reset Button|averted]].... [[Mind Screw|or IS IT]]?
* In the '80s ''[[Defenders of the Earth (Animation)|Defenders of the Earth]]'' series, ex-[[Distressed Damsel]] now [[Hot Scientist]] Dale Arden is actually ''killed'' through [[Mind Rape]] by Ming The Merciless. Her mind is later put in a crystal and becomes the core of the super-computer Dynak-X.
* Played for laughs in the episode of ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants (Animation)|SpongeBob SquarePants]]'' where he tries to get Gary to take a bath.
Line 32:
** Then there's what Dark Phoenix did to Mastermind after realizing he was trying to control her.
** The ''[[X-Men Evolution (Animation)|X-Men Evolution]]'' episode [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|"Mindbender"]] takes the trope [[Beyond the Impossible]]. {{spoiler|Mesmero}} mindrapes a bunch of X-Men kids ( {{spoiler|Jean, Kitty, Kurt, and Evan}}) by [[Bad Dreams|turning their dreams into nightmares]], then taking advantage of this to make them go [[Brainwashed and Crazy]] and serve him. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGbJsjjOGyA The opening sequence of said episode shows this mind rape in all of its glory.]
* In one episode of ''[[The Powerpuff Girls (Animation)|The Powerpuff Girls]]'', the girls face the Sandman, who wants to put everyone in the world to sleep so that he can be free from his duty of putting people across the world to sleep and get some rest for himself. The girls decide that to beat him (after being put to sleep themselves and finding that they can enter dreams) is to give him a nightmare so bad that he will never want to sleep again. [http://youtu.be/pw_a3G6517Y?t=6m16s What follows] [[What the Hell, Hero?|can only be described as Mind Rape]].
* In ''[[Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers (Animation)|Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers]]'', the Psychocrypt is shown to be a particularly nasty version. It's an extremely painful process that literally rips the person's soul out of them, shoves it in a [[Soul Jar]], and then turns the [[Life Energy]] into a vessel through which the [[God Save Us From the Queen|Queen]] could see and hear. Even your most intimate thoughts were hers.
** She also created a "dream making" device, powered by Eliza's crystal, to rather casually rape Zachary (and Eliza) on a nightly basis for a while. Zach, who is normally [[The Stoic]], was shown a couple times collapsing and screaming from the sheer pain of it.
Line 43:
* Played for laughs on ''[[Phineas and Ferb]].'' When the super computer the kids built scans the entire Tri-State Area, Norm the robot covers his ears and says, "Get out of my mind!"
** A straighter and more serious example comes from "Phineas And Ferb Get Busted" as a [[Shout Out]] to ''[[A Clockwork Orange (Film)|A Clockwork Orange]]''.
* In ''[[Young Justice (Animation)|Young Justice]]'', Psimon did this to M'gann by invading her mind and torturing her with the threat of revealing her darkest secret: {{spoiler|that she isn't a [[Green
