Someone might be [[Nice Guy|the kindest, most laid back person in the world]], but sometimes even they get [[Berserk Button|pushed too far]]. Then they say ''"This is unforgivable!<ref>"Yurusenai!" or "Yurusanai!" in Japanese</ref>"'' and the audience knows that an asskicking of epic proportions is about to start.
Line 15 ⟶ 16:
 
Sometimes phrased as "I'll never forgive you." See also [[The Coats Are Off]].
 
Do not confuse with [[Apology Not Accepted]], when is where a person (who may or may not have done something deserving to be in this page) tried to apologize and ask for forgiveness, only to be rejected.
 
{{examples}}
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* Kaguya from ''[[Kaguya-sama: Love Is War]]'' mentally says she'll never forgive Chika after Chika said Miyuki made a lunch for Chika.
* The protagonist of ''[[Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba]]'' told the [[Big Bad]] that the protagonist would kill him. This was not a [[Bond One-Liner]] by any means. The protagonist was occupied and the Big Bad was walking away. Shortly there after, an udon cook said he couldn't forgive the protagonist for not finishing his food (which the protagonist ditched to pursue a particularly nasty demon). The protagonist didn't take the time to pay after the first time eating, but what really offended the cook was the fact the protagonist didn't eat his fill before he stopped eating. The udon cook clearly didn't mean it, as not only did the cook not resort to violence, but the protagonist was able to secure the cook's forgiveness by ordering more udon, swearing to finish it, and following through.
* Whenever Kouji Kabuto of ''[[Mazinger Z]]'' said this sentence, you knew he was REAL angry, and someone was going to be summarily trashed in the near future. A good example was in the manga, after he learnt [[Big Bad|Dr. Hell]] had created a weapon that was able to nullify gravity... and had tested it on an ''entire city''. Another two memorable instances happened in the ''[[Mazinkaiser]]'' movie (Mazinkaiser vs Great General of Darkness: at the beginning, after Lori and Loru's {{spoiler|[[Heroic Sacrifice]]}}, and at the end, right before he {{spoiler|absolutely destroys the Mykene empire army}}:
{{quote|'''Kouji:''' Because of you... Many people have died... THAT IS UNFORGIVABLE! [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v{{=}}qiZwGqhTP5I\]}}
Line 66 ⟶ 71:
** Anime episode 243. Yumichika says it to his zanpakuto's manifested spirit Ruri-iro Kujaku while fighting him.
* Kagome from ''[[Inuyasha]]'' has this reaction when [[Manipulative Bastard]] [[Big Bad|Naraku]] stages a [[Xanatos Gambit]] designed to turn the [[True Companions]] against Sango and/or corrupt her by forcing her to kill her mind-controlled little brother and/or kill them all by luring them into a castle full of poisonous miasma. She locates him by the fragments of the Shikon no Tama he has, and fires a purifying arrow at him. Which blows through a building outer wall, dissipates the toxic miasma, ''and'' blows off his arm. He is so stunned he just stands there while she fires a ''second'' arrow at him, which reduces him to [[Nigh Invulnerability|a head]]. After that he flees, and it's a long time before he dares face her again. She's actually so pissed off that the mere ''beginning'' of her "I won't forgive you"-like declaration features [http://www.mangareader.net/226-16366-17/inuyasha/chapter-110.html a whole page] and follows ''for several pages''.
* [[Mahou Sensei Negima|Negi]] uses it the [httphttps://wwwweb.mangafoxarchive.org/web/20200328100632/http://fanfox.comnet/page/manga/read/71/mahou_sensei_negima/chapter.11094/page.11/ first time he confronts Fate Averruncus], this is a subversion, since Fate way out-classes Negi. Later [[Old Master|Evangeline]], however, [[I Am Not Left-Handed|kicks much butt]].
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20080320083535/http://www.mangafox.com/page/manga/read/71/mahou_sensei_negima/chapter.21520/page.14/ Chachamaru] uses it facing down a magical wild beast.
* This is practically King Dedede's [[Catch Phrase]] in ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]''.
** Then there's that moment in the episode "Sweet and Sour Puss" when a monster called Togeira possesses him, taking away his ability to get angry and causing him to act kind and calm towards others even through all the beatings everyone gives him. Much later, after the King has been pounded and smacked around enough, Togeira, having been storing his anger from within him while everyone was beating on him, stores enough of his anger to unleash it all in one big mega-attack that has Dedede exploding into a massively firey rage that scares everyone and scream at the top of his lungs, "Now it's payback time!" Dedede eventually goes back to his normal self after he slips on a banana peel, therefore knocking Togeira right out of his own head.
Line 123 ⟶ 128:
{{quote|'''Darunia:''' Link, you must not let your emotions erupt when you face Ganondorf. If you do, you will never be able to defeat him.
'''Link:''' You're right, Darunia. But... I will never forgive Ganondorf. }}
* In ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'', Winry finds out that {{spoiler|Scar}} is responsible for the murder of her parents, {{spoiler|she immediately picks up a nearby gun and points it towards him, only stopped by Edward. Later on, she runs into him and cooperates with him, but makes it clear that she does not forgive him for what's he done and only helping him because it is what her parents would have done.}}
* Fujiwara no Mokou in the ''[[Touhou]]'' manga ''Inaba of the Moon and Inaba of the Earth'' likes using this trope when it comes to her bitter rival Kaguya. Face it, she just hates her so much because of the humiliation she gave her father.
{{quote|'''Mokou:''' KAGUYAAA!! Today I'm definitely NOT going to forgive you!!
Line 138 ⟶ 143:
** [[Catgirl|Ichigo/Zoey]] even uses this trope as quite a [[Badass Boast]] towards a monster attacking Tokyo in her dream in the beginning of an early episode.
{{quote|'''Ichigo:''' You're a wicked monster and you've terrorized this city for the last time. Now you'll pay!}}
* ''[[Rosario Plus+ Vampire]]'': In chapter 41 of the second manga season Kurumu says "...won't forgive. I won't forgive you if you hurt Tsukune!"
** In chapter 50 Tsukune says this to Miyabi because he invaded Mizore's village and planted a [[Forceful Kiss]] on her.
* Although the intentions aren't carried over between meetings, this is often Hayate of ''[[Hayate the Combat Butler]]'''s manner when Nagi is threatened. Gilbert is frequently the target, and clearly frightened of the consequences of his actions, though not repentant not to try again at a later date.
Line 146 ⟶ 151:
* In ''[[Steel Angel Kurumi 2]]'' Kurumi says this whenever Nako gets hurt.
* ''[[Hanaukyo Maid Tai]] La Verite'' episode 9. After Lemon, Marron, and Melon speak rudely to Captain Konoe Tsurugi, Konoe's lieutenant Yashima Sanae tells them "Speaking so rudely to captain...unforgivable!" She then chases them away.
* A rather odd example occurs in ''[[ToA AruCertain Majutsu noMagical Index]]'' when Touma says this to the villain of the current{{when}} arc, Oriana Thompson, who is involved in a plot to brainwash the city. It's not the possibility of mass mind control that really upsets him, though, it's that her actions are interfering with the festival that's going on. Yeah, Touma can be a bit [[Skewed Priorities|strange.]]
* In ''[[Sukeban Deka]]'', "Saki's" catchphrase is "Omaera, Yurusansezore!" (You Won't Be Forgiven!)
* Every member of ''[[Fairy Tail]]'' will make sure that anyone who would disrespect their guild or hurt their friends will get no less than what they deserve.
Line 154 ⟶ 159:
* ''[[Black Cat (manga)|Black Cat]]'': In the anime Train says this after Creed kills Saya.
* ''[[FLCL]]''. In episode "Brittle Bullet" Naota's father walks into Naota's room and catches him and Haruko accidentally kissing. He is interested in Haruko himself, so he tells Naota that he can't forgive him and challenges him to a duel for Haruko's affections.
 
== [[Film]] ==
* ''[[Little Shop of Horrors]]'':
Line 189 ⟶ 195:
* The climax of '''any''' ''[[Toku]]'' show involves saying this phrase, followed immediately by a showdown with the [[Monster of the Week]].
* The ''[[Babylon 5]]'' episode "No Surrender, No Retreat" opens with Captain Sheridan defiantly declaring "'''Enough is enough!'''", after [[Day of the Jackboot|President Clark's]] forces attack yet another civilian target. He's not even ''remotely'' kidding.
* "[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined(2004 TV series)|I want you all to understand this! If you do this, there will be no forgiveness. No amnesty. This boy died honoring his uniform. You, you'll die with nothing]]."
** President Laura Roslin's speech in the following episode is arguably an even better example: "No. Not now. Not ever. Do you hear me? I will use every cannon, every bomb, every bullet, every weapon I have down to my own eyeteeth to end you. I swear it! I'M COMING FOR ALL OF YOU!"
** This was [[Deconstructed Trope|deconstructed]] when Lee testified at Baltar's war crimes trial - Lee pointed out all the things members of the fleet had done that should have resulted in imprisonment (or execution) that had been "forgiven" by either Admiral Adama or the President, and that the only reason Baltar's crimes were unforgivable and deserved his execution was that [[Insufferable Genius|no one liked him]].
Line 206 ⟶ 212:
* This was practically Kotaro Minami's catchphrase in ''[[Kamen Rider Black]]''.
* In [[The Borgias]], Rodrigo is telling his sons how to juggle the various bribes that will get him elected Pope. When one of them points out that his tactics are not exactly "holy", Rodrigo replies "God will forgive us, my son. But ''I'' will not. Forgive. Failure. From you, or your brother." Quite what he was threatening them with (if anything, since he does genuinely love his children,) is unknown, but since the line is spoken with all the verbal badassery [[Jeremy Irons]] can muster, it's understandably taken very seriously.
 
== [[Mythology]] ==
* In [[Classical Mythology]], any time someone is best known for the unique torment they receive in the Underworld, you ''know'' they did something ''really'' bad to earn such a punishment. Examples:
** Tantalus: Murdering his own son, cannibalism, and in one version, stealing ambrosia and nectar from the gods, after they ''invited'' him to share it. All violations of [[Sacred Hospitality]] that the Olympian Gods were big on. His [[Ironic Hell]] was one of eternal hunger and thirst, submerged to his neck in water (that would recede if he tried to drink it) with fruit dangling from branches in front of him (which would move out of reach if he tried to take them).
** Sisyphus: Managing to capture [[Grim Reaper|Thanatos]] himself and hold him hostage, giving all of Creation a huge mess because ''nobody'' could die as a result. Even after Ares threatened to make Sisyphus' life a [[Fate Worse Than Death]] unless he released Thanatos, Sisyphus was able to cheat death ''again'', through a combination of cunning, Loophole Abuse]] and the fact that Thanatos not wanting to go anywhere near him. But he couldn't do so forever, and as a result, was condemned to rolling a boulder uphill for eternity.
** Ixion was a minor king who murdered his father-in-law; at first, the gods were willing to cut him some slack (Ixion's father-in-law [[Asshole Victim| was ''not'' a nice guy]]) and invited him to one of their banquets. ''But'', Ixion again made a Sacred Hospitality faux pas by ''[[Too Dumb To Live| groping at Hera!]]'' Even so, Zeus was willing to forgive, and created a cloud-clone of Hera to test him, a [[Secret Test of Character]] which Ixion failed miserably, assaulting and raping the clone. As a result, he was struck dead, and punished in the afterlife by being chained to a spinning, burning wheel, symbolic of his lust. On top of it, the cloud-clone gave birth to the first of the centaurs, beings notorious for their bestial lust.
 
== [[Video Games]] ==
* This is Lenneth Valkyrie's big proclamation in ''[[Valkyrie Profile]]''. She had been impassive up to now.
Line 303 ⟶ 316:
{{quote|'''Nostalgia Critic''': To err is human... TO MAKE THE WORST PIECE OF COW SHIT TO EVER STAR [[Shaquille O Neal|A BAD-ACTING, 7-FOOT TALL BASKETBALL SUPERSTAR]] IS UNFORGIVABLE!!!}}
* In ''[[Tasakeru]]'', Zero says this {{spoiler|after N'Ktane pulls an incredibly cruel sneak attack in Book IV.}} As he's a former [[Samurai]], the usage is deliberate.
* In ''[[Dungeon Keeper Ami]]'', what amounts to this happens during the [http://addventure.bast-enterprises.de/246220.html invasion of Dreadfog Island]{{Dead link}}, when {{spoiler|Empress Mercury learns that the undead priests of the Crowned Death have plucked out the eyes of 8,000 captive innocents, would-be sacrifices, so that they wouldn't cause trouble.}}
== Western Animation ==
* Western animation equivalent: [[Bugs Bunny/Characters|Bugs Bunny]]'s declaration, "Of course you realize, [[This Means War]]!" heard (as per Chuck Jones) when the happy-go-lucky wabbit is finally pushed to the wall. Cue asskicking, etc. Of course, [[Marx Brothers|Groucho Marx]] [[Older Than They Think|said it first]].
