Tough Love provides examples of:
- Catharsis Factor: Most people thought it was satisfying to see the girls beat the crap out of their friends and loved ones. They thought it was the perfect payback for them and thought that they deserved it for treating the girls so terribly and try to destroy them through the whole day because of Him’s Hate Plague. And they did deserved it.
- Misaimed Fandom: As noted in Catharsis Factor, the fans felt satisfied that the girls were forced to attack their friends and the citizens of Townsville to get rid of the Hate Plague they'd fallen victim to despite the fact that they were only being abusive and cruel towards the girls because Him had used the Hate Plague to forcibly turn them against the girls.
