Line 2:
This is a subtrope of [[Easily Forgiven]] in which a character claims a right to one punch before forgiving the one who wronged him. Sometimes accompanied by the phrase, "Now we're even."
If done at the receiving party's urging, may involve [[Hit Me Dammit]]. Occasionally overlaps with [[Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!]] or [[Dope Slap]]. Often a form of [[Restrained Revenge]].
{{examples
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* ''[[Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle]]'': [[What the Hell, Hero?|Kurogane threatens to clock]] {{spoiler|clone Syaoran}} for one his actions. {{spoiler|The original}} gets a half-hearted knuckle-tap {{spoiler|in his clones'}} stead, though the [[Distant Finale]] suggests that there may be a way to bring {{spoiler|the Clone}} back after all, so Kurogane uses the "he still owes me a punch" as an excuse to travel with {{spoiler|original!Syaoran}}.
** Fai also does this to Kurogane after he {{spoiler|cut off his own arm to save Fai's life}}. Yes, Fai is the one punching Kurogane for doing that. [[It Makes Sense in Context]] (kind of).
* In ''[[Love Hina]]'' Naru does this to Keitaro after he peeks at her diary. And when he stumbles on her bathing. And when he's sitting quietly minding his own business. [[Tsundere|And when there's a weekday with the letter "y" in it]]...
Line 12:
** In the manga adaptation, Shinji decides it's better to have Toji owe him one.
* In ''[[Soul Eater]]'', Black Star does this with Maka ([[Hit Me Dammit|at her own request]]) after she punches him in an argument. He [[Megaton Punch|doesn't hold back]].
* After Polnareff apologizes to Kakyoin for being a hasty, angry prick {{spoiler|and apparently getting Avdol killed}} in [[Jo
{{quote| '''Kakyoin:''' That takes the place of my handshake, Polnareff. OK?<br />
'''Polnareff:''' Agh!!! T...Thank you...Kakyoin. Oo. }}
Line 71:
== [[Video Games]] ==
* Happens in ''[[Tales of Vesperia]]'' to [[The Mole]]. Instead of killing him for very nearly getting the party killed themselves, [[The Mole]] is told that his life belongs to [[The Guild|Brave Vesperia]] now, and then every single party member minus [[Non
* In ''[[Wing Commander (Video Game)|Wing Commander]] 3'', when Blair discovers that his good friend and comrade James "Paladin" Taggart has {{spoiler|known about Angel's death for a while, and been lying to him}}, the player has the option to punch Paladin in the face. If you do, he accepts it as deserved; if not, he begs you to.
