2----
3[[AC:''Series/Adam12'']]
4* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5061075/1/Into-the-Forest Into The Forest]]'': Pete Malloy. One of the guys holding him and his girlfriend prisoner tries to rape her, a very bad idea. Pete breaks the strap he's tied with, despite being injured, and charges the guy with every intention of killing if need be.
5
6[[AC:''WesternAnimation/{{Beetlejuice}}'']]
7* Beetlejuice goes into this in ''Fanfic/{{Cinderjuice}}''. He has no magic, thanks to the FramingDevice, and his beloved MoralityChain has been taken prisoner and is in mortal peril. So he resorts to using his fists to deliver a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown to anyone in his way... and according to those watching, it's more terrifying than anything he's ever done.
8
9[[AC:''VideoGame/ChronoCross'']]
10* In ''Fanfic/{{Fellowship}}'', BlackMage Guile goes into this whenever someone hurts or threatens his little friends, [[PapaWolf whom he treats like his sons]]. His power rises dramatically at this, but he also becomes reckless.
11
12[[AC:{{Crossover}}]]
13* In ''Fanfic/AceCombatTheEquestrianWar'', when [[BloodKnight Night Raven]] tells Fluttershy he fights and kills the ponies not because he hates them, but because he sees it as "fun", she becomes ''furious''.
14* ''Fanfic/AllForLuz'': Luz gives into her rage after [[EtTuBrute her cousin Riley tried to assassinate her]] after she was about to surrender to the cops. [[spoiler:The end result is she drives Riley and her accomplice to pull a VillainTeleportation, as well as wiping out an entire squad of {{Dirty Cop}}s]].
15--> ''[[BlindedByRage Luz could barely see anything]]. [[ThisIsUnforgivable That was how furious she had been]]. [[RageBreakingPoint That was how angry she had been]]. And thus…'' '''''She gave in to her hate.'''''
16* ''Fanfic/AvatarOfVictory'' (''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' & ''Franchise/MassEffect''): Shepard's "[[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown fight]]" with [[TheVamp Morinth]] begins when the latter, trying to put Shepard under mind control, targets a memory of Shepard's LoveInterest Liara. Shepard flips out, enters the Avatar State, and beats Morinth into a bloody pulp before spacing her, all while declaring that this is what happens to anyone who threatens the Avatar's loved ones.
17* ''Fanfic/TheBeastThatIAm'' has this as the main source of [[ComicBook/SheHulk Jade's]] powers. [[BerserkButton Hurt Keitaro]] and she transforms. Attack her and she becomes even angrier, making her even stronger. The fact that Jade's alter ego is '''[[ShrinkingViolet Shinobu]]''' should be a good sign of just how much suppressed anger she has in her system.
18* ''Fanfic/TheBridge'' (''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' & ''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}''):
19** Princess Luna takes all the kiddie gloves off and throws everything she's got at Godzilla Junior after the latter beat down multiple guards. Thankfully it was all a big misunderstanding.
20** To say Xenilla flies into one after being hit with Sombra's fear magic would be an understatement.
21** Kaizer Ghidorah might as well have this as is primary trait. Upon sensing or seeing Grand King Ghidorah, ''nothing'' is going to stop him from trying to rip the latter to pieces. [[spoiler: It's mentioned during his CurbStompBattle against King Ghidorah that Kaizer was tanking so much damage and exerting so much force in his blows that he was [[{{Squick}} breaking his own bones]] from the effort, and even that doesn't stop him from severely mauling King Ghidorah.]]
22** This later becomes deconstructed when [[spoiler: Aria lays a vicious smackdown on Sci-Twilight after what she did to Sonata. The beatdown makes Sci-Twi so angry and fearful, that she ends up embracing the power of the Windigoes. Wallflower seeing Twilight bloodied and battered at Aria's hands, thinks Aria is trying to kill her and uses the Memory Stone on her]].
23* Played straight and then deconstructed in ''Fanfic/ChildOfTheStorm'', with its downsides being pointed out.
24** Harry goes into one when [[spoiler: Luna]] is murdered, going on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge against the HYDRA agents who killed her. However, he's very much still a GlassCannon at this point, and their leader is CombatPragmatist [[spoiler: Daken]]. The result? [[spoiler: Harry gets impaled,]] although he almost certainly would've swept the floor with the invading army single-handed if he had fought smart. Fortunately, his [[spoiler: AlmightyMom is on hand to resurrect him]].
25** This is something of a family trait, as the whole plot of the fic was set in motion by Harry's grandfather resorting to [[LaserGuidedAmnesia drastic measures]] to stop his son embarking on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge that would have led to massive collateral damage. [[spoiler: Thor]] is not terribly happy when he finds out, but grudgingly agrees that [[spoiler: Odin]] probably saved a lot of innocent lives.
26** In the sequel, ''Ghosts of the Past'', Thor finally snaps after two weeks on edge following [[spoiler: Harry being kidnapped by the Red Room]], and falls into the Warrior's Madness while fighting the Juggernaut. On the upside, he beats the Juggernaut to a pulp with his bare hands. On the downside, he loses control completely and has to be restrained by ''the Hulk'' to stop him from hurting friends and, you know, most of the continent of North America, if not the entire planet.
27** Harry again, shortly after the above one (for related reasons), this time as [[spoiler: the Dark Phoenix]]. The spoilered part pretty much sums up why this is a Very Bad Thing.
28* ''Fanfic/AHero'' gives us Dalek Sec, who's like this. All the time. Considering [[OmnicidalManiac the general disposition of his species]], this is actually an improvement.
29* ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/425321/5/Heroes-of-Arcadia-A-Heros-Virtue Heroes of Arcadia: A Hero's Virtue]]'': Happens to Anthony Bault, the Gamemaster of Arcadia [[spoiler: when he sees Kragok gun down Knuckles, and turns into the Dark Gamemaster]].
30* ''Fanfic/JusticeLeagueOfEquestria'': During Rainbow Dash/Supermare's final fight with ComicBook/{{Brainiac}}, the latter makes the mistake of [[spoiler: seemingly killing her mother Firefly]]. This [[BerserkButton triggers]] one of these in Rainbow Dash, and she delivers a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown on him [[spoiler: nearly ''killing'' him before Thunderlane talks her down]].
31* ''Fanfic/KyonBigDamnHero'' (''Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya'' & Website/TVTropes; author DiedDuringProduction): If you do anything to harm the SOS Brigade, [[spoiler:Kyon - or if you hurt him, Haruhi - will lose it and you ''will'' suffer.]]
32* ''Fanfic/MegamiNoHanabira'': Yuuna '''flips her lid''' when a demon injures her girlfriend Nanami: she tears through them nigh-effortlessly with her own demons, before finally laying the last one out with a single punch.
33* ''Fanfic/MyLittleDenarians'' (''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'' & ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''): The ponies get exposed to much more non-cartoon violence than Harry would have liked - and they learn fast. At one point [[spoiler: Derpy is shot by a sniper]], causing Dash to charge across the street at the attacker. She may be a cartoon pony but she is a supersonic cartoon pony - after running across the street and up the stairs, Harry finds [[spoiler:the room splattered with blood and bits of flesh and the furious Dash PummelingTheCorpse]].
34* In ''Fanfic/TheNightUnfurls'', this happens during the aftermath of [[spoiler:the assassination attempt against [[TheHighQueen Celestine Lucross]]. She goes through a HeroicBSOD after seeing Kyril [[TakingTheBullet taking an arrow meant for her]], only to come BackFromTheDead. What follows is a NotSoStoic moment from Kyril who goes on a relentless pursuit out for the assassin's blood.]]
35-->'''Rage was one hell of a painkiller.''
36-->''[[spoiler:[[BackFromTheDead Death didn't come for him]]. [[ResurrectiveImmortality Not now, or ever]].]] Instead all he felt was an all-consuming rage as he punched the stone floor hard enough for it to crack."''
37* ''Fanfic/RiseOfTheGaleforces'': [[IAmNotWeasel Pterosaurs are not Dinosaurs.]] Adam Squall, aka Terrordactyl, is a pterosaur. Normally, calling him a "dinosaur" counts as a regular BerserkButton that's PlayedForLaughs. [[spoiler:Then in Chapter 25, Velociripper calls him a dinosaur after turning Violet into a ''Tyrannosaurus rex''. This double whammy causes Adam to destroy his holding tank out of sheer anger, simply by transforming inside it.]]
38** [[spoiler:When Violet discovers Ludlow's true motives in Episode 4, she basically ''snaps.'' And spends the remainder of the fic turning this trope up to eleven, which is more than enough to tip the balance of power in the protagonists' favor.]]
39* Betelgeuse has a reputation for this among other ghosts in the ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom[=/=]Film/{{Beetlejuice}}'' crossover ''Fanfic/SayItThrice''. They know he's ''really'' angry about the fact that he's been separated from his "Mortal Bride," and they're doing their best to keep out of his way. Those few who are foolish enough to try him in his present state end up maimed. And when he finds her and discovers that [[spoiler:another poltergeist is about to rape and murder her]], there is no word strong enough to describe the fury which results.
40* In ''Fanfic/ThousandShinji'', Asuka is a literal [[TheBerserker berserker]]. Several characters and entities repeatedly press her BerserkButton until she snaps, and when she does, she doesn't stop until whatever enraged her is destroyed. [[EldritchAbomination Most of Angels and the MP-Evas]] discovered that driving her mad was a spectacularly bad idea.
41-->Asuka and Unit 02 continued to rage, a dam within having burst. Everything has to die! Die for your sins! Die! Die like momma died! Die and leave me alone! Always alone! Die!
42* In ''Fanfic/TheWizardInTheShadows'', these happen to several characters, most frequently Harry. The usual sign of Harry having been in Unstoppable Rage mode is a large crater. One caused by a previous incident of RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil was one hundred yards across. The size of a soccer pitch, in other words.
43** Harry when he finds out that Saruman has been [[spoiler: torturing Sirius for the best part of seven years]]. He throws Wormtongue from the top of Isengard, catches, him, gives him to Éomer, drags Saruman down into the dungeons by his beard (after letting Emrys break his nose and forcing it back into joint), vaporizing the doors of Isengard, and when he finds [[spoiler: Sirius]] he loses his temper completely and repeatedly uses the Cruciatus curse.
44** Also, Emrys doing his level best to drown Wormtongue after finding out that Wormtongue raped his sister. [[spoiler: Theodred]] has to call him off, much like the Batman example above.
45** Harry when [[spoiler: Ginny]] is poisoned by the Witch-King, unleashing the full power of a Patronus infused thunder storm. Part of the weakest bolt vaporises a Mûmak.
46** [[spoiler: Ginny]] when [[spoiler: Harry]] dies unleashes three enormous tornadoes of fire on the army of Mordor, destroying the physical forms of three Nazgûl in the time it takes to snap your fingers.
47* In ''Fanfic/AWorldOfBloodyEvolution'', Yang undergoes this when she sees a little girl's head mounted on a [[SuperSoldier traitor marine's]] armor spike. Yang beats him to death with her bare hands.
48
49[[AC:''Series/{{Emergency}}'']]
50* ''[[http://tbillingsemergencyfanfic.com/returnpart1.htm Return]]'': Happens to Roy Desoto. He sees John Gage's uncle trying to take off John's pants to rape him, and though it is not a slash story, they are close friends, and Roy lets the uncle have it. Similarly, in the author's fic "[[http://tbillingsemergencyfanfic.com/revengeanemergencystorybytammyb.htm Revenge]]," a kidnapper from whom Roy rescued John comes after them and catches up to them at the station. Enraged at how they treated John, Roy gets physical with the guy.
51
52[[AC:''Franchise/FateSeries'']]
53* ''Fanfic/FateStarryNight'': Even while driven to the depths of madness by his class, Berserker is outraged that Ritsuka would use the image of [[BestFriend Jason]] as a HumanShield against him. Because of this, he refuses to listen to even Illya's commands and goes on a warpath against Ritsuka, just as the [[BatmanGambit latter had hoped.]]
54
55[[AC:''Series/{{Firefly}}'']]
56* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3802871/ All The Little Pieces]]'': Jayne after River is gang raped. He shoots down 10 men in a hail of bullets, laughing maniacally.
57* In ''Fanfic/{{Forward}}'', Jayne flies into one of these when [[spoiler: River [[TakingTheBullet takes a bullet for him]] during the assault by Niska's goons.]] It is described as Jayne "seeing ''red''." Jayne periodically has these moments throughout the story, when his anger overrides good sense. Later on, River goes into one of these rages when [[spoiler: a Hand of Blue shoots Simon]], and in the resulting scene [[spoiler: reduces his face to hamburger by repeatedly stabbing it in a hysterical, savage frenzy.]]
58* ''[[http://www.fireflyfans.net/bluesun.aspx?bid=4744 Of Softness and Steel 3]]'': Jayne (we seeing a pattern?). He, Wash and Kaylee are overpowered by pirates who steal ''Serenity'' and try to rape Kaylee. Jayne takes a beating himself but after River goes WaifFu on them, Jayne grabs the one who bit and groped Kaylee and pummels his face savagely til Kaylee stops him. When they land and Mal boards, he doubts even the man’s mother would have trouble recognizing him.
59
60[[AC:''Franchise/{{Frozen}}'']]
61* ''Fanfic/WhatAboutWitchQueen'' has Friedrich, king of the Southern Isles, whose HairTriggerTemper manifests itself like this. It's not necessarily good quality in a ruler or a father, as he's NotHimself when in this state and must lock himself in his room to prevent himself from hurting anybody.
62
63[[AC:''Series/GameOfThrones''/''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'']]
64* ''Fanfic/TheRavensPlan'':
65** When Robb sees Theon after waking up, he becomes so furious that being held up by Jon and Jory Cassel with all their strength, having Arya wrapped around his leg and Sansa screaming in his face to calm down is barely enough to keep him from killing Theon.
66** The Lannisters [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness get so mad]] upon finding out that [[spoiler: Joanna Lannister was killed through inaction by Maester Creylen]] that Jaime ''smashes Tyrion's desk'' and has to be knocked out by Bronn, Kevan ''throws his chair across the room'', and Stafford ''clenches his chair so hard the arms break''.
67** Robert's reaction to finding out the truth about Jon Targaryen -- that he's Rhaegar and Lyanna's trueborn son, and more importantly that Ned has been lying to him about it for years -- is to go absolutely berserk, smashing the Small Council chambers, knocking out Meryn Trant with a chair to the face, and sending the others scurrying to safety.
68
69[[AC:''Series/{{Glee}}'']]
70* Logan Wright from ''Fanfic/{{Dalton}}'' has some rather serious anger issues, causing him to violently lash out at virtually everyone on a semi-regular basis.
71
72[[AC:''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}''/''Franchise/KingKong''/Franchise/MonsterVerse]]
73* ''Fanfic/AbraxasHrodvitnon'': [[Characters/AbraxasHrodvitnonMonsterX Monster X]], particularly the Vivienne Graham half, flies into a couple such rages during the story. Firstly when Vivienne finds out during their escape that Alan Jonah has been [[spoiler:experimenting on {{Disposable Vagrant}}s]], secondly when the Many threaten her loved ones amidst Monster X's battle against them.
74
75[[AC:''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'']]
76* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11886910/1/Gankona-Unnachgiebig-Unità Gankona, Unnachgiebig, Unità]]'': Germany's and Japan's rage for each other became nigh unstoppable after having to tolerate each other for ''far'' too long during the night of the Florentine fireworks festival, culminating in a [[CockFight vicious fight]]. It would have ended in MurderTheHypotenuse if Italy had not intervened in time.
77
78[[AC:''VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureEyesOfHeaven'']]
79* ''Fanfic/JonathanJoestarTheFirstJoJo:''
80** [[GentleGiant Jonathan]] flies into this after Older Joseph tells him of [[spoiler:Dio's [[GrandTheftMe theft of his body]].]]
81** [[NiceGuy Josuke]] also flies into one in chapter 7, when he finds out about his [[SecretOtherFamily parentage]] and nearly kills [[DisappearedDad Older Joseph]].
82
83[[AC:''Franchise/KingdomHearts'']]
84* Fanfic/TheReluctantFatherUniverse: Roxas will defend Xion [[TrashTheSet very]] [[LimitBreak violently,]] to the point where it actually scares her.
85
86[[AC:''VideoGame/TheLegendOfSpyro'']]
87* [[PapaWolf Blaze]] from ''Fanfic/TheLegendOfSpyroANewDawn'' enters this when [[spoiler:the curse preventing him from helping his daughter fight [[TheDragon the Warden]] is broken. He shoots the Warden a DeathGlare, plows straight through everything between him and his target (including the cage he was in and [[FoeTossingCharge a mob of Gargoyles]]), and sends the Warden flying clear across the room twice in a row. He then leads the former slaves and his daughter in a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown on the Warden, ending it by blasting the Warden through a wall. Do not mess with Blaze's daughter!]]
88
89[[AC:Franchise/MarvelComics]]
90* In the ''Franchise/MarvelUniverse'' story ''Fanfic/FireDarkMark'', Franklin Richards figuratively explodes when he believes that Doctor Doom has killed his family. Then he makes Doom literally explode.
91-->On the screen, Franklin saw the face of Dr. Doom, caught in a chance shot from wherever the camera was, filling the screen. The cloaked and armored man seemed to be smiling.\
92The fury and anguish in Franklin's soul were a dormant H-Bomb, and Doom's smile seemed to be the trigger to ignite it.
93* ''Fanfic/UltimateSleepwalker'': Sleepwalker will explode into this trope when confronted with his ArchEnemy Cobweb, who trapped him on Earth, or his EvilCounterpart Psyko, who murdered the parents of his HeroicHost Rick Sheridan. Sleepwalker's anger typically pushes him beyond his normal limits when dealing with Psyko, although even then the result is a bloodbath from which Sleepwalker typically emerges more dead than alive. An unusual twist on this trope is that Cobweb has also played on Sleepwalker's anger to manipulate him into losing focus and making bad decisions that would get him killed...at least until Rick serves as a SpannerInTheWorks and sets Sleepy straight.
94
95[[AC:''Franchise/MegaMan'']]
96* ''Fanfic/MegaManReawakened'': Robert enters one if someone he cares about or has come to respect is hurt.
97
98[[AC:''Franchise/MyHeroAcademia'']]
99* ''Fanfic/ForgivenessIsTheAttributeOfTheStrong'': The entire Shigaraki-Midoriya family is prone to going feral, with notable examples including [[spoiler:Izuku’s rage when All for One nearly kills All Might and Hisashi’s rage at his little brother being kidnapped by Overhaul.]]
100* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12785530/1/Every-Step-of-the-Way Every Step of the Way]]'' has Present Mic getting furious at seeing Aizawa tortured and blinded. He unleashes his voice full force twice, once nearly at point blank range. Mind you, his voice can level buildings. He does put earplugs on a unconscious Aizawa to protect him.
101* ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/24177832/chapters/58230601 I Am Here]]'' has Midoriya raped by three men, led by one with a paralysis quirk. Naturally, All Might is '''raging''' and when the paralysis guy is located, he and Aizawa beat him to a bloody pulp. The guy also has the nerve to mouth off and say Midoriya asked for it, causing All Might to crush his wrist until it snaps. He notes they were told to bring the guys in alive and the Symbol of Peace must set an example, but were he not said symbol and a pro hero, he’d likely have killed the guy.
102* ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/27853170/chapters/68194306 Pulse and Void]]'': Aizawa is ''furious'' on seeing just how badly Present Mic, who he’s married to in the story, has suffered after the voice hero was kidnapped and [[ColdbloodedTorture brutally tortured]]. His InternalMonologue says he doesn’t care about being a pro hero at the moment, just about getting vengeance. He fights hard and between the EvilGloating of the TortureTechnician-who’s developed a twisted desire to keep Mic as a plaything-and being able to see more and more of Hizashi’s injuries and torment, Aizawa gets continually madder. Nothing stops him from rescuing Hazashi and giving a brutal beatdown to the torturer. (Dark art warning)
103
104[[AC:''Franchise/MyLittlePony'']]
105* ''Fanfic/FriendshipIsMagicalGirls'': If members of the Emerald Flame Dragon clan allow themselves to lose control of their anger, they can fall into one of these, symbolized by their magic flames shifting from green to red. Spike's master's father fell into one of these long ago when a member of the rival Soaring Lion Eagle clan killed his fiance; the result was the [[CurbStompBattle near-extinction of the Soaring Lion Eagles]]. [[spoiler: Spike himself falls into this when Snips shoots Twilight, leading to him hunting Snips down and killing him in cold blood.]]
106* In the [[DarkFic VERY dark]] ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' fanfic ''[[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/25219/the-night-that-never-ended The Night That Never Ended]]'' this happens with Rainbow Dash when she sees one of Nightmare Moon's minions brutally murder several ponies helping her. She attacks the guard, and the scene cuts away... ...And when the scene cuts back, [[spoiler: Rainbow Dash has not only beaten the pony to death, but has been PummelingTheCorpse for quite some time.]]
107** When Skelly [[WouldHurtAChild injures Pip]], Guile snaps Skelly's neck and sends his skull flying away with a kick. But being [[DemBones a skeleton clown]], Skelly easily reattaches his skull to his skeleton and ends up [[SubvertedTrope knocking Guile out]].
108** When the Tutanshaman Brothers threaten Draggy by saying that Draggy will be very dead after they're done dealing with Guile, this enrages Guile so much that he lets loose a furious roar which diffuses a streaming blast of fire, causes a tremor, cracks the ground and the tree trunks around him, and blows off the leaves on the trees and hedge nearby.
109* ''Fanfic/PagesOfHarmony'' involves [[spoiler: Fluttershy]] going into this at one point. [[spoiler: She's had Kindness stripped from her so completely that she hallucinates that her pets are the ponies she believed wronged her, and tears them mercilessly to pieces. She then turns this attack on [[BigBad Twilight]], whose WellIntentionedExtremist actions were the cause of her present suffering, and they pummel one another into a bloody mess, with Fluttershy tearing chunks off of Twilight's skin before Twilight eventually manages to win by a margin.]]
110* ''Fanfic/SunsetOfTime'': This happens to Rainbow Dash when [[spoiler: Sunset Shimmer kidnaps and nearly kills Fluttershy]]. She leaps into the air and flies at her, ("supreme fury" on her face) screaming that she's going to kill her... but [[spoiler:Sunset Shimmer just shoots her down with magic, ending her rampage before she can do anything]].
111
112[[AC:''Franchise/{{Naruto}}'']]
113* ''Webcomic/NaruHinaChronicles'': In Chapter 112, [[spoiler:when Sakura turns her face and reveals the injuries Evil Sasuke did to it, the real Sasuke fully unleashes his anger and proceeds to beat the crap out of his evil clone]].
114
115[[AC:''Franchise/NeonGenesisEvangelion'']]
116* ''Fanfic/TheSecondTry'': Subverted. When Gendo [[spoiler:used the name of Aki]] to taunt Asuka she got raving mad. She broke free despite of being handcuffed and surrounded by Gendo's agents, leapt at his desk and tried to throttle him. However, they managed to sedate her before she closed her hands around his neck.
117
118[[AC:''Franchise/OnePiece'']]
119* ''Fanfic/ThisBites'': Fleet Admiral Sengoku flies into one after [[spoiler:the Straw Hats start broadcasting their assault on Enies Lobby. It only gets worse and worse with each report of how the Straw Hats have inspired ''other'' pirates (up to and including the Four Emperors themselves) to commit their own dangerous acts, which is only compounded when the Straw Hats started airing the World Government's dirty laundry, including the truth about Ohara. Eventually, he has become so angry that he orders nearly every available Marine in the Grand Line to invade Enies Lobby in order to capture and/or (preferably, in his case) kill them (including Admirals Kizaru and Aokiji), with a visible SlasherSmile on his face at one point. When they ''escape'', he simmers down to a TranquilFury, which is no less terrifying (as Aokiji can attest to)]]. It's also deconstructed, as Sengoku's old age means his body can't handle that amount of stress anymore, and at one point it causes him to suffer a [[CrackOhMyBack non-fatal heart attack]].
120** Moria undergoes one in the Thriller Bark Arc that is even ''worse'' than the one he flew into in canon. As in, he undergoes a TraumaticSuperPowerAwakening, [[OneWingedAngel warps himself into Nidhogg]], a [[TransformationHorror vaguely draconic horror so distorted that the Straw Hats can only wonder how he survived the transformation]], and proceeds to tank an absolutely ''ridiculous'' amount of punishment, despite the fact he's throwing around [[CastingAShadow Macro-Umbrakinesis]] that should, by rights, have left him unconscious from exhaustion. All because [[PowerBornOfMadness he's so hopped up on rage and bat-shit crazy]] that he's not about to let a little something like "reality" stop him from slaughtering the Straw Hats. He goes down hard, it's left ambiguous that he might have even ''died'' in the process, but he certainly gives the Straw Hats a real run for their money.
121
122[[AC:''Manga/RosarioPlusVampire'']]
123* ''Fanfic/RosarioVampireBrightestDarkness'':
124** In Act IV chapter 2, Akua notes that, when provoked, Jovian and Jacqueline destroyed ''entire Fairy Tale facilities'' in their fits of rage, and only Hokuto could calm them down; according to Akua, the Kikions' temper tantrums put Kahlua's BerserkerTears to shame.
125** In Act VI chapter 42, Kokoa flies into one when she discovers that Sun was [[DatePeepers spying on her and Gin having sex]], and really flies off the handle when Sun outright tells her that she's not good enough for Gin, proceeding to punch Sun through a wall and chase both Felucia and Sun through the house in a rage until Arial encases her in ice. By chapter 44, she's thawed and still pissed off to the point that the others have to chain her to the ground, while she's reduced to snarling and growling like an animal.
126
127[[AC:''Franchise/{{RWBY}}'']]
128* In ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/9721717/1/Massages Massages]]'', [[TheBully Team CDRL]] beats up Jaune as usual, but when they reveal that they plan to rape every girl in his UnwantedHarem, he loses it and gives them a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown. The others are forced to knock him out, not out of concern for Team CRDL, because he was about to burn himself out from releasing so much energy at once.
129-->'No fighting policy' be damned. Morals and the law didn't mean anything anymore. Jaune would kill these motherfuckers.
130* ''[[Fanfic/RWBYReckoning : Reckoning]]'' has Darrel being pushed to this after Ruby is [[TheWorfEffect shot]], Blake is [[GameBreakingInjury hurt]], Sun is [[FantasticRacism insulted,]] and he's used as a HumanShield, courtesy of Roman. Having had enough of his friends being hurt, he finally cuts loose, throwing him around like a rag doll. Of course, Roman being [[CombatPragmatist Roman]], he fights dirty.
131** This occurs again during the story's rendition of the [[Recap/RWBYV3E10BattleOfBeacon Fall o]][[Recap/RWBYV3E11HeroesAndMonsters f Beacon]], when Adam cuts Yang's arm off. The fury that builds within Darrel is enough to deprogram his [[ManchurianAgent brainwashing]], and he becomes a murderous, screaming berserker.
132
133[[AC:''Franchise/SailorMoon'']]
134* ''Sailor Moon: Legends of Lightstorm'': At the climax of her debut episode, Sailor Jupiter uses this to transform through sheer force of will alone, something no Sailor Scout has ever done before.
135
136[[AC:''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'']]
137* In ''Fanfic/ANewLifeEra'', in order to achieve SuperMode, one must go into a trance that somewhat borders on this. The Hacker and his son, Moe, both fought a bully at the age of 10, with a different level of control over their own emotions, with The Hacker having been somewhat accustomed to SuperMode, mostly due to the fact that he suppressed his own energy level for ''18 hours straight''. When the time came, The Hacker went nearly berserk on his enemy, and his enemy alone, while Moe, on the other hand, had only unlocked his newfound power, and, in less than a minute, turned some of his own rage onto Amy Jr. (by yelling at her for not responding to his request of leading the entire Student Body back in the school), who is very close to him. However, Moe did attack the bully who was terrorizing the Student Body, only to nearly collapse from exhaustion.
138* ''Fanfic/SonicXDarkChaos'': Tsali pretty much runs on violently sadistic AxCrazy rage, [[BloodKnight especially in battle]].
139
140[[AC:''Manga/SoulEater'']]
141* [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10265333/1/They-Shook-Death-City They Shook Death City]] centers around Maka's quite frankly terrifying rage against people she deems bad drivers. Poor Soul spends most of the story fearing for his life in the passenger seat.
142
143[[AC:''Franchise/StarTrek'']]
144* ''Fanfic/StarTrekPhoenix'': When Yukarin gloats about his intention to crash the ship they're into the Earth and kill Sunset's family in the process, Sunset goes into a berserk rage, channeling every drop of magic in her body to slaughter the ship's Jem'Hadar guards, incinerate Yukarin himself, and tear the ship to pieces.
145

147* ''Fanfic/TheDesertStorm'': "Ben Naasade" (a time-travelling Obi-Wan Kenobi) has several moments of this, all of them caused by one or more of his {{Trauma Button}}s being pushed. The second such incident, which involved using a Light-side variant of ''Force Lightning'' to wipe out a squad of Death Watch,[[note]]the NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist Mandalorian faction[[/note]] was a significant turning point in Jango Fett's relationship with him. Up until that point he'd thought Ben saying [[ArcWords "Jedi are not meant to be soldiers"]] was them being disdainful of anyone with a warrior tradition, but his FreakOut was a rather graphic illustration of what he really meant by it: An accomplished Force user with [[ShellShockedVeteran Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder]] is incredibly dangerous to themselves and others if they're pushed into a flashback.
148* In three stories by Caro June, Imperial guards find out how bad an idea it is to rough up Leia right in front of Han. In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3772574/1/Going-Solo Going Solo]]'', one of the guards decides to 'distract' Han by smacking Leia. In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3625109/1/The-Way-It-Should-Be The Way It Should Be]]'', one of the guards makes clear his intent to rape Leia. Both scenes have the same result: Han rushing them in blind fury, despite being severely injured, grabbing their necks in a vice grip that probably rivals Vader's. He would likely have killed the attacker both times, but in both stories, he's cold cocked a second later. In her story ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7034896/1/ The Princess And The Pirate]]'', Han goes wild twice because of someone harming Leia. The first time, a guard whacks her when she trips, and Han headbutts him hard before getting, yup, knocked out. The second time, she's hit with a heavy stun, and Han reacts with wild rage, struggling against his captors as hard as he can. It doesn't work though, he still gets dragged off and beaten.
149* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/151496/ The Marionettes Dance]]'': Qui Gon Jinn gets into one twice trying to [[PapaWolf protect his unconscious apprentice Obi Wan]]. The first time, he slices various limbs off four guards after having used a JediMindTrick to fool them into ignoring his lightsaber. Later, he's really set off when they lie and say Obi Wan died. He crushes one guard's throat but doesn't kill him, then does kill two more with his bare hands. The first guy gets a piece of nasal septum driven into his brain by Qui Gon's elbow slamming into his face,and the second guy gets his neck snapped after Qui Gon choke holds him and forces him to admit that Obi Wan is still alive and where he's at. He may have felt he had no choice but to kill that one, he was wielding a box that controlled shock collars that both Jedi had been forced into wearing, and the ElectricTorture was really ticking off Qui Gon already.
150* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10236883/ The Unthinkable]]'': Mara Jade is raped, and Luke nearly goes all the way into TheDarkSide mode, knocking out two Barabels without much thought and then viciously Force-choking her attacker. Mara and Han beg him not to kill the guy, and Han is ready to stun Luke with his blaster if he doesn't stop. Mara tells him afterward that she was scared seeing him like that. He does reign in his anger and let the guy live, but snarls that he WILL kill the guy if he ever touches Mara again. Luke himself is saddened by it when they talk at the hospital and thanks Mara for stopping him.
151* Both Han and Leia's rage button gets pushed in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11634382/1/welcome-back-your-dark-memories Welcome Back Your Dark Memories]]''. Han and Leia are in a tapecafe and a guy from Jabba's Palace happens to be there. He makes lewd remarks about Leia, and Han gets into a knock-down drag-out fight with the guy. They separate, and Leia moves in to tell Han it isn't worth it. But then, the guy breaks out a blaster to shoot Leia and makes another remark, and she pulls a Vader, blocking the guy's shot with the Force, then Force-choking him until Han has to tell her it isn't worth it to kill him. She does let him live, but only after a few choice remarks about respecting women.
152** Leia in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10974019/1/Worst-Vacation-Ever Worst Vacation Ever]]'' when someone tries to shoot Han. He's already taken one to the arm, and when Leia goes to him, the attacker says she better move if she wants to live. Cue Leia going into ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend mode and giving her a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown.
153-->'''Leia''': No one hurts someone I love!

155[[AC:''ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}'']]
156* ''Fanfic/HellsisterTrilogy'': Upon finding out about Mordru dying at the hands of the ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes, Satan Girl pounces on ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} furiously and pummels her almost to death.
157-->At that, Supergirl knew she had succeeded. Probably a little more than she wanted.\
158Satan Girl surged forward like an express train, her arms outstretched, and Kara flew through the warp.\
159In two more seconds, they were at war again, and Satan Girl vowed that she would destroy Supergirl before the anti-matter got anywhere near them.
160
161[[AC:''Franchise/TouhouProject'']]
162* In ''[[Fanfic/Gensokyo20XX Gensokyo 20XXV]]'', this is Reimu's response to Yume Ni kicking her in the face, the which of she felt, and she couldn't be stopped until she stabbed the latter with a pair of scissors.
163-->'''Mamizou''': Swinging them around madly like mad warrior and his sword, she came after her and, no matter the effort, she could not be stopped.
164
165[[AC:''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'']]
166* Grimlock has had several of these in ''Transformers Meta'' and [[spoiler:will probably have several more]].
167** He raged against Barricade and Soundwave in the third episode when [[spoiler:they were holding Bumblebee captive]].
168** He beat the heck out of Barricade in the second episode when Barricade [[spoiler:nearly took out Bumblebee.]]
169** Furthermore, he charged furiously at Slipstream when Bumblebee was, yet again, [[spoiler:being held captive]].
170*** In the same episode, he went absolutely crazy when [[spoiler:Bumblebee had been kidnapped]] and went so far as to beat up a corpse because there was no one else around that he could kill.
171** In the second episode, he tried to snap Wheeljack in half when the latter [[spoiler:left Evac and Bumblebee by themselves in a potentially hostile environment.]]
172*** Inevitably, Grimlock's Unstoppable Rages are commonly caused by, but are not limited to, [[spoiler:something happening to Bumblebee.]]

174[[AC: ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'']]
175* In ''Fanfic/TurningRedSecretsOfThePanda'', Xia generally remains quite calm, even when around members of the PCA or when she knows they’re involved in something. However, after she sees the horrible things Jason has done, and witnesses Jason shooting Mei in the gut, she [[RageBreakingPoint completely snaps]]. This leads to her [[CurbStompBattle beating the ever-living hell out of Jason]], while in her red panda form.
