History MindRape / AnimeAndManga

** This also happens in the final arc of ''[[Anime/YuGiOhGX GX]]'': the final villain, Darkness, traps people in nightmares where all their hopes are dashed repeatedly until they give in to despair and all outside proof of their existences are erased.

* The ''Manga/BungouStrayDogs'' has an ability user whose ability is this entire trope. Anyone who harms him become the receiver for his curse, and when he mutilates the doll he carries around with him, they begun to hallucinate causing them to attack anyone near them, friend or foe.

* In ''{{Manga/Berserk}}'', Ubik, one of the [[BigBad God Hand]], pulls an epic one on Griffith to get him to carry out the sacrifices to become a demon god. [[spoiler:It works.]]

* ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'': The trope name comes the FanNickname for Asuka's brutal mental torture inflicted by the Fifteenth Angel, Arael. It's so debilitating, she can no longer sync with her [=EVA=] unit, and eventually falls into a [[ConvenientComa catatonic]] [[HeroicBSOD depre]][[DespairEventHorizon ssion.]] Its effect and execution make it one of the cruelest examples ''ever'', as it forces her to relive her whole DarkAndTroubledPast which includes [[spoiler: her mother Kyouko going mad after test-piloting the EVA 02, being unable to recognize Asuka and shunning her to favor a CreepyDoll, Asuka herself hearing the people talk about her and her mother's lives, her father cheating on her mother with her mother's doctor, Kyouko [[OffingTheOffspring trying to strangle her]] in the manga, and Asuka finding Kyouko's hanging corpse (alongside the doll) in the very day when she was chosen as an EVA pilot]]. Then it moves onto Asuka's present-day issues, many of which stems from said past, namely her immense sense of self-loathing and all of the numerous insecurities she hides behind her energetic and thunderous exterior. All of it culminates in the Angel aligning all of Asuka's ideas of her present and memories of her past to create such [[DespairEventHorizon an absolutely overwhelming and crushing sense of despair and dread in her]], that she loses the will to live to a degree where even her vital signs ''starts to give out''. Most translations include Asuka screaming something like, "It's raping/defiling/violating/devouring my mind/soul!" (Or in the case of manga scanlations, [[http://www.mangareader.net/687-33647-23/neon-genesis-evangelion/chapter-60.html sobbing and whispering "I've been violated!"]]). The fact that the mind rape ray also [[SoundtrackDissonance plays the wildly inappropriate Hallelujah chorus]] either [[{{Narm}} defuses the scene completely]] or [[NightmareFuel makes it much, much worse]]. In fact, the sheer level of it all is so great, that the lines on the psychograph measuring her mental state drop to zero, then turns into an impossible mass of squiggles that [[FreezeFrameBonus if you pause at certain moments, show what appear to be really creepy doodles.]]
** Technically, this happens with EVERY Angel other than Tabris ([[spoiler:also known as Kaworu]]) even in the original series. [[FridgeHorror Think about it]], the AT field is supposed to be your barrier that isolates your true self (ie your soul) from others. Angels and Evas are somehow able to project this (leading to an idea that Angels are actually the most isolated, most terrified and most alone creatures in any anime). So when an Eva rips apart an Angel's field it is basically RAPING the Angel's soul. Not quite Mind Rape, but Soul Rape is as close as it gets.
*** Well aside from Arael, [[spoiler:Leliel, Armisael, and maybe Bardiel also did some Mind Rape to Shinji, Rei, and Touji respectively. It's also pretty trippy stuff, but Asuka is the most well remembered due to the intensity of it. Lilith at the End of Evangelion also does this... to the collective mind of all humanity, and [[GainaxEnding then starts messing up the minds of people from all forms of realities too. Including ours. It (will) hurt]].]]
*** Not to mention they do this ''passively''. Being exposed to an angel's AT field typically results in ''your very sense of individuality'' being gradually overwhelmed. Not likely to be pleasant at all, even besides the fact that this is likely to dissolve you into Tang.

** And the second season reveals that [[spoiler:during the TimeSkip, the Emperor used ''his'' own Geass to give Lelouch FakeMemories]]. Not a traditional Mind Rape, but the scene gets almost uncomfortably close to an actual rape, with [[spoiler:a ''very angry'' Suzaku holding Lelouch down and Lelouch begging for him to stop]].

* Possibly trancending both the "psychic" and "mundane" categories, being banished to hell in ''Anime/HellGirl'' means that one is dragged into an EldritchLocation where one is subjected to a nightmarish IronicHell in the form of an inverse experience of one's own crime. And this is still only a ''preview'' of what's to come since the EldritchLocation isn't hell itself but merely a PocketDimension between the world of the living and hell that one passes through before reaching one's final destination... Most victims have a complete and utter breakdown before they reach the other side.

* In the RS arc of ''Manga/PokemonSpecial'', a Magma EliteMook had the special ability to make people hallucinate with his flames. Ruby was forced to relive his worst memories [[HoistByHisOwnPetard (good thing that's the one thing that encourages to keep fighting)]], while Tate and Liza fought illusions to the point of exhaustion (they would have eventually killed themselves if Juan didn't save them offscreen). However, this ability goes straight into horror when he fights Brawly, when it appears that monsters emerging from paintings are grabbing at him and his Pokémon.

* ''Anime/ElfenLied'': During her childhood, [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname Kaede/Lucy]] was tortured with hallucinations created by the [[EnemyWithin 'DNA]] [[FanNickname Voice']]. This included her best friend (whom she thought had just betrayed her) telling her that he never cared for her at all, and simply befriended her because he 'loved strange animals like her', as well as the [[KidsAreCruel kids]] from the orphanage she was grew up in raised from the dead as mutilated corpses that continued to taunt her, even in death. Needless to say, the [[HeroicBSOD effects]] were not pretty.

* ''Manga/TowardTheTerra'' has quite a bit of this; in particular, a dystopian society reminiscent of ''TheGiver'' does this systematically to everyone when they hit age 14, [[LaserGuidedAmnesia destroying all of their childhood memories]]. They also use a LotusEaterMachine-like effect to try to get information out of people, and the "psychological exams" are... unpleasant.

* Surprisingly played for laughs in ''Manga/TheWorldGodOnlyKnows'': [[OurDemonsAreDifferent Nora]] tries uses her mind-reading abilities to show everyone [[{{Otaku}} Keima's]] "Most precious thing." It starts with a loading screen. Then a copyright notice. Rated [[InSeriesNickname God]]. (Caution: Making unauthorized copies, rentals, streaming, public viewing, and other commercial use of this imagination is strictly prohibited). Then she tries to turn DatingSim dream into a complete nightmare. Naturally, he [[RantInducingSlight doesn't]] [[LetsGetDangerous take it]] [[UnstoppableRage very]] [[CrowningMomentOfFunny well]].

* ''Anime/YuGiOhVRAINS'': Towards the end of Aoi's and Spectre's duel in Episode #34, [[HopeSpot Spectre made Aoi believe that she was about to win and was about to save him]]. However, it was only a façade as Spectre's ''Sunbloom Doom'' made him nowhere near losing. [[BreakThemByTalking He even mocked her, calling her a pathetic girl who couldn't become a Blue Angel and claiming he was the Blue Angel who defeated the villain—her]]. He then [[KickThemWhileTheyAreDown tore up the copy of the ''Blue Angel'' book he materialized and burned the shreds]]. The story meant the world to Aoi and gave her comfort after her parents died about ten years before the start of the series. To see it be so carelessly destroyed, in addition to [[BreaktheCutie her being so cruelly manipulated and mocked just moments ago]], [[DespairEventHorizon destroyed her]]. [[spoiler:Seeing as the Tower of Hanoi would absorb those who lose duels in ''Link VRAINS'' and leave their real bodies in a comatose state with little hope of waking up, [[{{Sadist}} Spectre]] [[MindRape essentially tortured her mentally]] before [[MoralEventHorizon murdering]] her in cold blood.]]

** Later in ''R'', [[spoiler:MindRape (through infusing her with Dark Energy and [[FakeMemories altering her memories of her parents]] to make her believe they abused her), allows Wiseman to turn a captured and emotionally fragile Chibi-Usa into Black Lady.]]

** ''[[Anime/MobileSuitVictoryGundam Victory Gundam]]'' comes close, with the Angel Halo installation. It basically uses twenty-thousand Newtype "psychikers" to amplify the powers of a single Newtype who can then use it to MindRape ''the whole of the Earth Sphere'' if she so desires. Zanscare planned on using it on Earth to regress people to an infantile state of mind so they'd all die off and leave the Earth "purified". Fortunately for everyone involved, they had the bad judgement to place Shakti in control of it. Earlier, when testing its effects, they tried to use it to cause Uso to lose his will to fight, first by bombarding him with [[GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul images of peace and happiness]], then with scenes of terror and pain.

*** It gets even better: when Lelouch tries to convince C.C. to escape before Suzaku pulls himself together, he grabs her shoulder and breaks her concentration, causing C.C. to '''accidentally MindRape herself'''. And Lelouch to witness both.

** According to one of the [[AllThereInTheManual licensed side-novels]] for the show, an adolescent Mao used his power to manipulate an entire village in China into destroying itself by exposing the skeletons in everyone's closets. So, if anything, he's a practiced hand at the MindRape.
** And the second season reveals that [[spoiler:during the TimeSkip, the Emperor used ''his'' own Geass to give Lelouch FakeMemories]]. Not a traditional MindRape, but the scene gets almost uncomfortably close to an actual rape, with [[spoiler:a ''very angry'' Suzaku holding Lelouch down and Lelouch begging for him to stop]].

** If Lelouch uses his Geass to order someone with strong enough willpower to do something utterly abhorrent to them, a MindRape-like effect will ensue when the will of the victim tries to fight off the Geass. It happened twice in the series... and aptly enough, [[spoiler:both of them were his sisters]]. He causes mind rapes many more times than that by forcing people to do things against their will often leaving them an emotional wreck afterward; i.e., [[spoiler: when the schoolgirl he geassed into carving marks into the wall of Ashford Academy is evacuated out of Area 11, she's still under the effects of his Geass and ''must'' go back there, leading to her sneaking out repeteadly, to having a nervous breakdown when unable to fulfill the Geass order, to having to be confined and locked away...]]

* In ''Manga/GetBackers'', a surprising good-guy (well, [[SociopathicHero relatively]] [[AntiHero good]]) example: Ban Midou has the power to show people a perfect illusion for one minute, and he often uses this ability to MindRape his enemies. And even when he actually ''doesn't'' use it on people (and simply fools them into thinking he used it), it still ends up mindraping them when they try to wrap their mind around ''when'' exactly he actually ''did'' use it.

** And if you try fight off his MindRape? [[http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/90527597/11 It'll]] [[http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/90527597/12 get]] [[http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/90527597/13 worse]]. Poor [[spoiler: Orihime and Chad]].

* In ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Gundam Wing]]'', [[DeadlyUpgrade the Zero System]] causes a MindRape effect on whoever is piloting Wing Zero. The technical intention is to show them all the possible outcomes of a battle, but in reality it ends up them giving them horrifying hallucinations that fuck up their minds to different degrees. As an example, when [[BreakTheCutie an *already* very unstable]] [[spoiler: Quatre]] gets a hold of it, he pretty much goes ''batshit insane'' until [[spoiler: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOaH0tsG3z0 Trowa almost commits suicide to stop him]].]], However, Quatre claims he wasn't even ''aware'' of the Zero System, and further claims he never used it as he didn't give a damn about the enhanced cockpit system so much as he did Zero's one-hit colony-killing BFG. (Though this seems to be specific to the dub, but to be fair, the 'golden screens' effect Zero displays when active wasn't seen at all when Quatre first piloted the thing.)... Many of the other pilots took brief spins and got hit the same way. Even [[TheStoic Heero]] for a time. It took ''two'' mecha with such a system (Heero in the Epyon vs. Zechs in the Wing Zero) and the most intense battle of their lives to get the pilots beyond the madness and make sense of it all, finally pushing them beyond their mecha's capabilities. They eventually called a truce and switched mecha. Realizing that it could be beat, Heero would later get the other pilots to pilot the Wing Zero again, this time with the intention of pushing through. Each of them would in their own way (in particular, Wufei turns his experience into a ''vision quest'').

* In PandoraHearts, [[spoiler:[[EvilAllAlong Jack Vessalius]]]] does this extremely effectively to [[spoiler:Oz]] by showing them immensely traumatizing memories from their forgotten past, including [[spoiler:the memories of being forced to kill countless innocent people as the B-rabbit despite not wanting to. Jack finishes off by telling Oz, "You've never really had anything to call your own, anyway. Don't forget that..."]]
** Not to mention all that crazy stuff that happens to Alice early on in the series, such as the Will of the Abyss trying to [[BreakThemByTalking break her by talking]] and her less-than-pleasant memory fragments that haunt her in Cheshire's dimension.

** [[spoiler:the death of Portgas D. Ace.: He dies right before Luffy's eyes to protect him, not fifteen minutes after he has been saved, cuing a HeroicBSOD. It was understandable considering what Luffy had been through to save Ace, most notably fighting in a war far out of league, after having been poisoned until the point of melting, while the cure took ten years of his life. The impact is further enhanced in the anime, as he literaly becomes a colorless husk of a body]] to show the damage [[spoiler:Ace also broke his promise not to die, a promise he made after his other brother died.]]

** Anime only, in the "New Captain Sh?suke Amagai arc" where Hanza Nukui uses his Bakk?t?, Saiga, to look into Ichigo's memories, and then tortures him with the memories of the death of his mother. Hanza makes it so she tries to choke Ichigo, making it so Ichigo can't harm her or fight back. He tells Ichigo he'll only be able to save himself if he can kill his mother. However, before Ichigo chokes to death, the pleasant memories with his mother comes up from deep within him. Ichigo then tells his mother how much everybody misses her. Before she vanishes, she smiles after Ichigo thanks her for protecting him that day.

** What C.C. does to Suzaku to stop him from attacking Lelouch would also qualify; [[spoiler:she shows him memories of his dead father, ex-Prime Minister Genbu Kururugi, who Suzaku himself killed as a young boy]]. It's so bad that Suzaku falls into a catatonic state and is traumatised for a while afterward. Partially excusable in that C.C. admits she had absolutely ''no'' idea what she made Suzaku see; they even mention at the end of the episode that they had to wait until the Lancelot ran out of power to pull a trembling Suzaku out of the cockpit because he freaked out and started shooting everything. Several episodes later, as mentioned above, Mao also brings the issue up, manipulating Suzaku in a similar way he did Shirley, by reading his mind and mocking what he did to [[spoiler: his father]] as well as his guilt over it.

** And the second season reveals that [[spoiler:during the TimeSkip, the Emperor used ''his'' own Geass to give Lelouch FakeMemories]]. Not a traditional MindRape, but the scene gets almost uncomfortably close to an actual rape, with [[spoiler:Suzaku holding Lelouch down and Lelouch begging for him to stop]].

He causes mind rapes many more times than that by forcing people to do things against their will often leaving them an emotional wreck afterward.

* In ''Anime/InuYasha'', about one third of the way through the plot, Naraku traps the gang in a field of mist and some sort of root-like plant which traps them and forces them to see hallucinations of which they each fear the most: Miroku's hallucination is his Wind Tunnel breaking its constraints and swallowing him slowly from the hand up; Sango hallucinates about Kohaku killing everybody; Shippo hallucinates that he's completely alone and everyone else in the group has disappeared (leaving only their clothes behind); and Inuyasha hallucinates about Kikyo and him dying together. He's the only one to snap out of it on his own, because he (unsurprisingly) remembers that he needs to protect Kagome.

* In PandoraHearts, [[spoiler:[[EvilAllAlong Jack Vessalius]]]] does this extremely effectively to [[spoiler:Oz]] by showing [[spoiler:him]] immensely traumatizing memories from [[spoiler:his]] forgotten past, including [[spoiler:the memories of being forced to kill countless innocent people as the B-rabbit despite not wanting to. Jack finishes off by telling Oz, "You've never really had anything to call your own, anyway. Don't forget that..."]]

** In ''Anime/YuGiOhZexal'' Tron does this to Droite, forcibly stealing her memories of Kaito (whom she's secretly in love with) and leaving her psychologically scarred, sobbing in Yuma's arms. To make this worse, he laughs at her like a sadist after doing it.

* In ''{{Noein}}'', [[spoiler: when Noein has Haruka in his clutches he shows her a BadFuture of her friends being [[BreakTheCutie broken]] in various ways as self-justification for his own nihilism]], made all the worse because the scene is ''dripping'' with [[NoYay sexual tension between him and Haruka]], and because [[spoiler: he is an evil version of Yuu, Haruka's own sweetheart]].

** ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSeed Gundam Seed]]'': A more minor case, some would say Rau Le Crueset's final words had this effect on Kira Yamato, as in [[MobileSuitGundamSeedDestiny the sequel]] we first see Kira as mostly quiet man, always deep in his thoughts, staring outwards at the world, possibly depressed.
