Mind Rape/Anime and Manga: Difference between revisions

* In episode 6 of ''[[Mobile Fighter G Gundam|G Gundam]]'', {{spoiler|Domon is drugged and forced to watch a holographic re-enaction of his family's downfall by his bosses, to see if he can really use his Super Mode (which is supposed to be powered up through anger-fueled Heroic Resolve). For worse, much later we find out it was all a lie.}}

* A less supernatural mind rape was attempted by Suzaku on Kallen in ''[[Code Geass]] R2''. Suzaku, trying to find out if Lelouch has regained his memory and become Zero again, attempts to {{spoiler|use [[Lotus Eater Machine|the Refrain drug]] on Kallen to make her tell him the truth. Kallen is so disturbed and shaken that [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|she begs for him not to, as though she were about to be literally raped by him]]. Just before dosing her, Suzaku realizes he is becoming [[Not So Different]] from Zero, and stops. When you think back to season one and how [[Empty Shell|the mind of Kallen's biological mother was nearly destroyed by the drug]], it's not that much of a stretch to believe that poor Kallen would liken a forced dose of refrain to a sexual violation}}.

* ''[[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.
