Line 30:
* Suboshi tries to rape Miaka in ''[[Fushigi Yuugi]]'' because his [[Love Interest]] Yui was raped {{spoiler|or so she thinks}}, and blames it on Miaka for not answering her calls for help and obsessing over Tamahome, whom Yui also liked. {{spoiler|In actuality, the only reason Miaka didn't help Yui was because she couldn't ''hear'' Yui from outside of the book after changing out of her school uniform.}}
* ''Words Worth'' has an [[Played for Laughs|absolutely hilarious]] take on this: highlighted in the exchange between [[Lady of Black Magic|Maria]] and Prince Astral; wherein, she blasts him twenty years into the future, and utterly devastates him, in a fit of rape-induced rage.
{{quote| '''Maria: (furious)''' "Not only do you assault me, you also hurt my father! I'll never forgive you!"<br />
'''Astral: (confused)''' [[It's Not Rape If You Enjoyed It|"But... but that's not what you said earlier!"]]<br />
'''Maria: (flustered)''' "Sh-shut up, you! And anyway, [[Looks Like She Is Enjoying It|that was my body talking]], [[Immodest Orgasm|against my own will!]]<br />
Line 76:
* In ''[[Lajja]]'', Bulwa avenges Ramdulaari's rape, as well as {{spoiler|the [[Attempted Rape]] on his mother}} by killing male followers of [[Sleazy Politician]] Gajendra.
* It's not part of the main plot, but in ''[[Pulp Fiction]]'', Marcellus Wallace promises full payback to the man who raped him:
{{quote| ''"What now? Let me tell you what now. I'ma call a coupla hard, pipe-hittin' niggers, who'll go to work on homes here with a pair of pliers and a blow torch. You hear me talkin', hillbilly boy? I ain't through with you by a damn sight. I'ma get medieval on your ass."''}}
* A female on female example of this is ''Five Across the Eyes'', where a psychotic woman tortures five teenage girls through means that include sexually humiliating them, and violating them with objects like a screwdriver and a shotgun. They avenge themselves by stabbing her to death with a screwdriver and then setting her on fire.
* In ''Bad Reputation'', a [[Shrinking Violet]] is gang raped by [[Jerk Jock|Jerk Jocks]] at a party, then humiliated and labeled the "school slut" by a [[Girl Posse]]. After her mother and the school guidance counselor prove unsympathetic (to the point of basically blaming her) she [[Beware the Nice Ones|completely snaps]], and decides to get even as a [[Femme Fatale]].
Line 96:
* In ''Medalon'', Jennifer Fallon's first book in the ''Demon Child'' trilogy, the female protagonist is repeatedly raped and forced to keep quiet about it for the sake of the man she cares about. Then of course, her rapist decides to threaten ''him'' instead. [[Berserk Button|Really. Bad. Move.]] Two books later, she ''properly'' gets revenge for what he did to her. By that time she's a [[Physical God]] who became a [[Magnificent Bastard]] by taking down an entire religion, rearranging the political landscape of an entire continent, took another god to the cleaners, and still had time afterwards to set up an entirely new form of governance for her home country. Let's just say that the words [[Fate Worse Than Death]] have seldom been more suitably applied by the time she's done with him.
* In [[Rudyard Kipling]]'s ''Epitaphs of the War: 1914-1918'' this chilling epitaph is written:
{{quote| RAPED AND REVENGED<br />
One used and butchered me: another spied<br />
Me broken — for which thing an hundred died.<br />
So it was learned among the heathen hosts<br />
How much a freeborn woman’s favour costs. }}
* The climax of ''Is-A-Man'' by [[J. T. Edson]] has Annie Singing Bear taking revenge on four Mexicans who raped a member of her tribe. She kills three of them and the fourth, who shows cowardice rather than fighting her honourably, she castrates.
