Oh, no! Your best friend has been entranced by Pazuzu! Bummer! No need to call any specialists, though; just pull up your sleeves and you can deal with this yourself. In many works of fiction, the best way to free a possessed or cursed person is to simply beat the crap out of them — think of it as spiritual Percussive Maintenance. You won't need to worry about hurting your friend, either; it's just the curse/demon you're punching, not them. Once you punch them into unconsciousness, they should wake up perfectly fine (albeit probably with a massive headache). You better believe a Badass Preacher is going to do this. Holy Burns Evil, right? So the fists of a holy man or woman should be sufficient to free the victim. This is especially common in Video Games where combat is the standard reaction to anything anyway, and can result in making a new friend or getting a new player character. Unfortunately, it also comes up a lot in stories with a villain with a Dark and Troubled Past or a Freudian Excuse — it turns out their mothers, grandmothers, aunts, or somebody thought they were evil/cursed/possessed and tried to beat the evil out of them, or to prevent them from becoming evil (which is precisely what made them evil). In other words, trying to do this in real life is very much not recommended. In some cases, the curse breaks upon death such as This Was His True Form or Dying as Yourself. If Only Mostly Dead is available, sometimes a Revival Loophole is possible. Kill the cursed, the curse dies with the victim, bring the cursed Back from the Dead and hopefully the curse stays away. Compare: Get A Hold Of Yourself Man, and "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight for when the battle is with words. Oftentimes overlaps with Fighting Your Friend. See also Defeat Means Friendship for when the enemy isn't cursed or possessed, just opposed to the hero for personal reasons. Mostly unrelated to Hollywood Exorcism. |

In Disgaea 4, the repentant former Big Bad Nemo gets corrupted by the power of Fear the Great, which he had (unintentionally) tapped into for the final episode, forcing Valvatorez and company to beat some sense into him for the very final battle... Well, the final battle for the normal/best ending, anyway. | |

Batman: Arkham Asylum. When Poison Ivy takes over the guards, you just beat the everloving crap out of them. Though to be honest, this is more of a "I'll beat you unconscious so you don't try to kill me while I deal with that gigantic plant over there" kind of deal. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: Justified twice. Yeta, a friendly Yeti living in the Snowpeak Ruins, which is the game's fifth dungeon, is cursed by a shard of the Mirror of Twilight, turning her into the boss of that dungeon, Blizzeta. A good old fashioned ball and chain is enough to destroy her palanquin and break the curse. Then, during the final battle, Ganondorf possesses Zelda's corpse and uses her magic against you, which includes holy light. When you send it back at him, Zelda is dead and a holy being, but Ganondorf is demonic, so only he gets hurt. Also, this only weakens him. It takes magic from Midna to actually drive him out of Zelda. | |

Guild Wars 2 Secrets of the Obscure: One event chain in Skywatch Archipelago concludes with a commoner NPC being possessed by the Kryptis. You free her by pounding on her long enough for the possessor to manifest, killing the possessor, and repeating until she's out of health bar. She's perfectly fine once you finish the process. | |

A variation in Dragon Quest VIII - The best and only permanent way to get rid of curses in the setting is to beat the crap out of the person who placed the curse. King Trode and Medea's curse not being lifted after Dhoulmagus gets his ass handed to him is the party's first clue that he's not the real Big Bad of this story. You also beat a powerful curse out of one of your own party members. | |

Ranma ½: Maomolin (the giant ghost cat also called Bakeneko) possesses Ranma's father Genma to avoid getting beat up. However, while Ranma has a paralyzing fear of cats, he has no problems whatsoever beating the crap out of his father. The ghost cat screams at him about what kind of son he is to do that to his own father and flees to possess someone else. This also is a plot point in the "Evil Oni" storyline in the manga and OVA. An Oni gets released, possessing a number of characters. The Oni will vacate the body when the body is punched in the head. Ranma has no problem popping his dad, Kun�, the Priest and Ry�ga in the head, but Kasumi...? |

In Hemlock Grove, if a werewolf transforms too many times without a full moon, they risk losing their minds and becoming feral beasts unable to change back into a human. Unfortunately, circumstances force Peter to transform several times, until the last time ends with him advancing on his vampire friend Roman and their love interest. How does Roman deal with this? He grabs Peter by the jaw, rips his head apart, reaches down past his gullet and pulls out Peter's human body. While it's weird that a werewolf transformation would work like that, it's still pretty cool. | |

In Cthulhu Saves the World, in "Cthulhu's Angels" bonus campaign, the heroines who save the world on Cthulhu's behalf encounter Umi who was possessed by cursed sword Sharpe and had her personality split in two. As Elona reveals she never learned the spell of exorcism because back then it seemed useless, she explains that beating people senseless tends to have a similar effect. Their success was very short-lived as Sharpe cannot be thrown away, and Umi's evil personality returns. However, the party successfully convinces both personalities of Umi to join them in their quest. | |

In the not so acclaimed novelisation of Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn, Irenicus turns Imoen into a monster to attack the elves. The monster's form breaks free from under her skin. It's all right, though, because all the protagonist Abdel Adrian needs to do to free her is tear the monster apart, because obviously she would be intact inside the monster that burst out from inside her. | |

Anita Sarkeesian discusses this trope in Feminist Frequency, citing how often newly cursed female characters need male heroes to beat them back into sanity. It maps uncomfortably well to real-world abuse, ranging from Get A Hold Of Your Self Man to claiming that a woman was hysterical and needed to be "corrected". | |

Several seasons of Kamen Rider have had Riders rescue hostages from inside the Monster of the Week using violence. Kazari's Yummies form around their host, forcing OOO to use finesse to extract them before finishing the Yummy off. In the later arcs of Kamen Rider Drive, the Roidmudes develop the means to fuse with a Willing Channeler. Shinnosuke's tech support tunes his weapons to destroy the Roidmude without hurting the human. In Kamen Rider Ex-Aid, the Bugsters start off as an infection inside a human being, rapidly growing into a massive monster with the patient inside. The Riders' Super-Deformed Level 1 forms are designed specifically to separate a Bugster from the patient. |

World of Warcraft includes this at least once each expansion. In Throne of the Tides (Cataclysm) you face off against Erunak Stonespeaker, a shaman who saved your life multiple times throughout the preceding storyline who is being controlled by a Face Hugger. After knocking him to half health, the boss himself becomes attackable (though he may jump onto one of your own party members during the fight.) In Ulduar (Wrath of the Lich King) you must fight the four Titan Keepers — Freya, Thorim, Hodir, and Mimiron. Wait, aren't they good guys? Well, yes, but they're being mind-controlled by Yogg-Saron, Old God of insanity and death. (Mostly insanity.) Punching them sufficiently will cure the mind-control; once they reach 1% health they turn friendly and will help you in your battle against Yogg-Saron. In the Sunwell (Burning Crusade) you must fight against Kalecgos, a blue dragon who till now has always been one of the good guys. While you battle his body in the real world, you also get a chance to go inside his mind and punch out the evil forces enslaving him. In Mists of Pandaria, reluctant zombie Lilian Voss has become a Death Knight who hunts down necromancers. Can you see the logical conclusion of a zombie trying to take down a magician who specializes in controlling zombies? Anyway, after you beat her up enough she breaks free of his control and helps you take out the Big Bad. |

In Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers (and all following series), this was typically the way to free people and animals who had been turned into the Monster of the Week by the Big Bad's evil spells (and thankfully so, otherwise the Rangers would have unwittingly killed Kat). When the transformation had been done by means other than a direct spell the Rangers had to seek alternate cures. | |

The Scion known as Faultless in Sentinels of the Multiverse is an ancient entity of positive energy, Reforged into a Minion by OblivAeon. If his health can be reduced to zero, he restores some semblance of his original state and becomes an ally of the heroes (albeit a fragile one). This can manifest as the heroes beating the curse out of him, or, depending on circumstances, OblivAeon getting a wee bit careless with his collateral damage. | |

Inuyasha: Miroku does this in episode 132 to the possessed village women and Sango. It's less extreme than most examples; it only amounts to him attaching Paper Talismans to either the women or his fist and then punching them in the gut, forcing them to cough up the baby salamander demons that were controlling them. | |

In EarthBound (1994), most humans and animals that you fight are "turned back to normal" after you defeat them. This is because they're being influenced by Giygas, and thus a solid beating makes him let go. | |

In Kero Blaster: In the final level of normal mode, the frog salaryman protagonist's boss has been fully possessed by the Negativus Legatia and the only way to turn her back to normal is by beating her up in a boss fight. In Zangyou Mode, Nanao's former boss is possessed by the Work Producing Machine salesman. Defeating him in battle will free him and allow him to take a much needed nap. |

Suberted in Resident Evil 5: at one point you are attacked by former partner Jill Valentine, who is under the influence of a mind control device (which is attached to the chest, naturally). Administering a beating is a bad idea, since if you do too much damage to her, you'll accidentally kill her. Instead, you have to work with your partner to hold her still while one of you tries to pry off the device. | |

Stargate-verse: It is established early on that a near-death experience will break nearly any form of brainwashing. This method is risky, however, since the brainwashee must be brought quite literally to the edge of death, so there's a very real chance that they will die in the process. Rya'c is cured of brainwashing in Stargate SG-1 by shooting him with a zat gun. Zats usually just knock a person out, but since Rya'c was a child, the effect was more severe, enough to break the brainwashing. Teal'c is similarly cured of brainwashing, though it takes more effort since, as a battle-hardened badass from a society of warriors, he can resist quite a lot of punishment. They do so by removing his Goa'uld larva (which functions as his immune system), and just letting the resulting sickness take its course. In Stargate Universe, the idea is revisited when Colonel Young locks a brainwashed Colonel Telford in a room and vents the oxygen until he's virtually dead in order to undo the process. |

In Dragon Age: Origins, you do this to Bann Teagan to free him from a demon's mind control. Which is kinda startling given that going with the Darker and Edgier nature of the setting, fighting mind-controlled people usually means having to kill them. The Legacy expansion of Dragon Age II features the party storming the prison of ancient Darkspawn Corypheus. If your party includes "ex"-Grey Warden Anders, he starts hearing voices as Corypheus communicates through the darkspawn taint in his blood. He eventually becomes a mini-boss fight, after which he manages to resist for the rest of the DLC. Since Anders is also sharing a body with a hacked-off spirit of Justice, it's unclear which part of him you're fighting. In both games, you have the option to go into the Fade with your companions to defeat a demon. Origins has you rescue your companions from their nightmares, where they can either cower uselessly in terror or join you in fighting themselves free, but 2 has every single companion (save for Anders, who's protected by Justice, and Sebastian, who refuses to go into the Fade in the first place) turn on you at a demon's urging. The result is Beat The Curse Out Of Them until they 'die' (drop out of the Fade and back into the real world)—and if you've been carefully building your companions' stats, abilities, and gears, it will not be fun. |

In one episode of The Powerpuff Girls (1998), HIM unleashed a Hate Plague that turned the entire town evil and all attempts to resolve the matter peacefully failed... until the girls beat the crap out of the Townsville citizens. The girls convinced themselves the Brainwashed and Crazy citizens actually were not their loved ones (Since, as the heroes of Townsville, everyone adored the girls). The curse only breaks after the girls take out their Brainwashed and Crazy loved ones and scare HIM into retreating. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Anything affected by dark magic, up to and including Princess Zelda herself, can be fixed with a good butt-whupping. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: Link does this without first knowing about the "curse" in the Spirit Temple. After defeating the red Iron Knuckle, its armor breaks and it is revealed to be a brainwashed Nabooru, who starts coming to her senses. She is sent away by Twinrova shortly after, and Link then has to fight them in order to properly save her. The Legend of Zelda: Oracle Games: Ages has only one subversion, where Link can't attack Veran when she's possessing someone because doing so would supposedly only hurt her host. Defeating Veran when she's possessing Nayru and later, Queen Ambi requires shooting Mystery Seeds at her and to remove Veran's spirit from her body, and then switching places with Veran to attack her before she can repossess her host. In Seasons, the boss fight against Onox has Din trapped in a crystal and slowly move towards you, causing damage if she hits. Whacking at her with your sword will actually damage you, so instead you need to use the Rod of Seasons to push her back. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: Justified twice. Yeta, a friendly Yeti living in the Snowpeak Ruins, which is the game's fifth dungeon, is cursed by a shard of the Mirror of Twilight, turning her into the boss of that dungeon, Blizzeta. A good old fashioned ball and chain is enough to destroy her palanquin and break the curse. Then, during the final battle, Ganondorf possesses Zelda's corpse and uses her magic against you, which includes holy light. When you send it back at him, Zelda is dead and a holy being, but Ganondorf is demonic, so only he gets hurt. Also, this only weakens him. It takes magic from Midna to actually drive him out of Zelda. |

Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS: There are two separate instances of this (the second one had an "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight mixed in for good measure). First, Subaru used a point-blank Divine Buster to remove her sister's brainwashing. Then, Nanoha used five Starlight Breakers to free her daughter from the Saint's Cradle's control. This is explained in-universe by the specific means that the Mind Control works in both cases: namely, both Ginga and Vivio are infused with Ancient Belkan Relics. These effectively give the bad guys remote control over them but can be overloaded with magical energy from a concentrated bombardment attack (like the aforementioned Divine Buster and Starlight Breaker), destroying the Relic and freeing the victim without lasting harm. | |

Red River (1995): The only way to cure someone possessed by Queen Nakia's magic waters is to hit them in the stomach hard enough that they puke it up. Just about everyone who undergoes this does react in pain when they wake up. The ends up being very unfortunate for poor Prince Juda, who is fed so much of his mother's mind-controlling water that he has to undergo a particularly brutal beatdown from Ilbani before he coughs it all up. | |

Wrexsoul in Final Fantasy VI brings this to a different level. To start, the boss will "possess" one of your party members at random. There is no way to tell which party member is possessed (because the party member in question will continue to attack and behave normally), and there is no way to damage the boss until the party member who is possessed by Wrexsoul dies, when the boss then rematerializes and becomes available to attack. Expect to repeat this process multiple times... unless you decide to take the easy route and just X-Zone/Banish the Soul Savers. But going this route costs you a fairly useful item drop. | |

Von Pinn, knowing Agatha is "not herself" immediately starts to beat the tar out of The Other. When The Other warns her that she'll kill Agatha if she keeps going, Von Pinn tells her she's well aware of that and is willing to sacrifice Agatha to stop her, but also gives her the chance to retreat (i.e., cede control of her body back to Agatha). The Other does so, but taunts she'll be back. | |

Sailor Moon: This occasionally shows up. In the first story arc, Sailor Moon isn't able to free Mamoru from Beryl's brainwashing with gentler methods, so she eventually realizes that the only way to stop him is to stab him with her sword. Upon killing him and stabbing herself in grief, she awakens to find that both of them survived and Mamoru is now free of the mind control. An unusual variant occurs in the Infinity College arc. Hotaru Tomoe is possessed by Mistress 9, who is so powerful that none of the senshi attacks so much as slow her down. What defeats her in the end is when Hotaru herself beats (or rather, burns) Mistress 9 out of her from within, causing the alien to explode and reveal Hotaru as the newly-awoken Sailor Saturn. In the first anime, Sailor Moon had a special attack just for purifying the victims of the Monster of the Week. While the attack was not meant to be harmful, the monster would usually scream and writhe before turning back to normal. Horribly subverted in the final manga arc. Sailor Moon finds all of her dead friends resurrected under the power of Galaxia, causing them to happily try to kill her. While she initially is unable to face the idea of fighting them (watching them die already did a number on her sanity), she finally accepts that it's the only way and attacks. They all turn to dust and have their star seeds re-stolen by Galaxia before they can turn back to normal. Although if one argues that their subsequent appearance in the Cauldron, where they're back to normal counts as a part of it, it's played straight after all. Also in the manga, Sailor Venus eventually starts exorcising possessed people by hitting them with her chain. She also enacts this trope by accident during the Exam Battle: while she exorcised Rei with her own Shinto exorcism technique consisting in applying an ofuda (also Rei's), she was so surprised by the possessed Rei trying to kiss her that she slapped the talisman on Rei's face with enough strength to send her flying. |

In Red vs. Blue, AI can Body Surf by jumping between hosts via their radios; they can also control their hosts, making them highly dangerous as a result when they get malevolent, as Omega was. One of the ways that an AI could be removed from the host was knocking them out. Thus, Tex punching people in the face quickly became the expedient way to force the AI out, usually because Tex didn't have the patience for the less violent alternatives. That and it's funny. | |

A less violent but no less traumatic variation in Animorphs, where the Puppeteer Parasite Yeerks can be starved out of their host's brain by preventing them from returning to a Yeerk pool every three days. When this happens to Jake, he's tied up in a shack in the middle of the forest, and while he can morph to escape, the rest of the team are watching. The Yeerk eventually gives up, but doesn't stop mentally torturing Jake until the end. And once he does die, Jake sees Crayak for a brief instant. Visser One's former partner failed to completely leave its host's brain in time, resulting in the host sometimes speaking Yeerk or otherwise acting crazy. |

Interesting variation in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the villains use "shadow bugs" mined from Mr. Game & Watch to create evil, purple-tinted versions of some of the heroes, like Peach and Diddy Kong. Most of the time, the real hero is trapped in trophy form and can't be brought back to life until the cursed version is defeated. However, it is possible for Diddy to fight his own Evil Twin, and at one point, Bowser does this to himself so he can be in two places at once. | |

During the "Stinkmeaner Strikes Back" episode of The Boondocks, Uncle Ruckus' attempt to exorcise Colonel Stinkmeaner from Tom's body was to strap him to a bed and beat him while repeating the phrase "Nigga, get your black ass outta here!" The actual solution was the exact opposite (get Stinkmeaner to agree with someone, in this case Ruckus). | |

Final Fantasy: This is the standard method for dealing with the "Confuse" side-effect in almost any Final Fantasy game; hit the affected character with a physical attack to regain control of them. This can be dangerous if your party members are high enough level to kill the afflicted in that strike. Wrexsoul in Final Fantasy VI brings this to a different level. To start, the boss will "possess" one of your party members at random. There is no way to tell which party member is possessed (because the party member in question will continue to attack and behave normally), and there is no way to damage the boss until the party member who is possessed by Wrexsoul dies, when the boss then rematerializes and becomes available to attack. Expect to repeat this process multiple times... unless you decide to take the easy route and just X-Zone/Banish the Soul Savers. But going this route costs you a fairly useful item drop. This is one of the ways you can save Adelle in Final Fantasy Tactics A2. The other is to keep talking until she returns to normal. One of the side quests in Final Fantasy X-2 has the Big Bad possess Rikku and Paine, forcing Yuna to fight them in two separate Duel Boss battles and beat them senseless so they can return to normal. |

Subverted at first in BlazBlue: Chronophantasma. In her arcade path, Makoto tries to beat some sense into the Brainwashed and Crazy Tsubaki. Two battles later, Tsubaki escapes control, but is quickly overcome again, and only the local Time Crash prevents the confrontation from escalating into a full-blown deathmatch. The "at first" is because the trope is played with later. In the story path, Makoto tries again with Noel and Jin at her side. Makoto doesn't succeed in directly neutralizing the curse, but that wasn't Jin's plan in the first place; with Tsubaki's strength exhausted and Izanami unable to intervene due to the Eclipse Field, Noel could observe the Zero-Type for Tsubaki to grasp and control on her own terms. Jin pushes her to the point where she has to use the Immortal Breaker technique or risk dying, except Jin stops trying to fight so he doesn't kill her. The attack fails because [A] the Immortal Breaker is only meant to destroy entities outside of logic (Jin's power of order is tied to the world's logic, which makes him immune) and [B] Jin was forcing a Sadistic Choice on Tsubaki to see if her love for true justice and Jin is greater than her devotion to then-Imperator Izanami. In the end, it's less "beat the curse out of her" and more "beat the curse so she can break it herself". In a separate incident in Continuum Shift, Makoto runs into Noel in Arcade mode after Terumi stuck his mental dick in her, and proceeds to the percussive maintenance stage to break her out of the resulting trance. She succeeds... and then Terumi shows up and drags her away. |

One of the (many, many) plots from Warhammer 40,000's prequel series The Horus Heresy involves the life of Fulgrim and his army after Fulgrim drives a species called the Laer extinct, and he takes a holy artifact of theirs (a sword) as his trophy. The sword was possessed by a daemon, and it's influence lead Fulgrim and his followers into madness and depravity, ultimately possessing Fulgrim's body and leaving his soul trapped in a painting. Fulgrim's Legionaires eventually notice something is wrong, capture Fulgrim's body, and try to force the daemon out by torturing it into submission. They knew this worked on some shaky assumptions since it was a daemon of pleasure and pain, but they were short on options and what little sanity and decency they had left compelled them to try and rescue Fulgrim. By this time, Fulgrim had forced the daemon out and reclaimed his body through an act of sheer willpower, though with his shattered sanity he just preferred this new life. He was enacting a Wounded Gazelle Gambit to manipulate his soldiers into torturing him for the fun of it. | |

Sasuke ends up having to do this to Naruto in the climax of the Senju Twins Retrival arc by stabbing him through the gut and shocking him from the inside out. It ends up being deconstructed when Obito briefly tricks him into thinking that the wounds were fatal so that he'd awaken his Mangekyo Sharingan and the guilt of nearly killing one of his friends is still haunting him after the Time Skip. | |

In Spider-Man: Web of Shadows, you can save people who have turned into Symbiote Zombies... by hitting them a lot. Apparently, you can knock the symbiote off of them with long enough combos. (This has the added bonus of making it easier to "cure" people if you're playing as "Normal" Spider-Man, since he's got longer combos — his "Black Suit" version focuses more on huge area-effect attacks and powerful blows.)note This has also occasionally happened in the comics — beating the symbiote off of someone — but it's somewhat rare and usually has serious complications. Mostly, they resort to their classic Kryptonite Factor of sound instead. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Oracle Games: Ages has only one subversion, where Link can't attack Veran when she's possessing someone because doing so would supposedly only hurt her host. Defeating Veran when she's possessing Nayru and later, Queen Ambi requires shooting Mystery Seeds at her and to remove Veran's spirit from her body, and then switching places with Veran to attack her before she can repossess her host. In Seasons, the boss fight against Onox has Din trapped in a crystal and slowly move towards you, causing damage if she hits. Whacking at her with your sword will actually damage you, so instead you need to use the Rod of Seasons to push her back. |

Codename: Kids Next Door: Operation: V.I.D.E.O.G.A.M.E.: The level "Operation: S.P.A.N.K.H.A.P.P.Y." has Numbuh 4 doing this to his teammates, who have been transformed by Count Spankulot into Spank-Happy Vampires. Numbuh 4 had to use his S.P.L.A.N.K.E.R. to free his friends from the curse, although in the original television series, the cure to the curse was as if the victim spanked back the vampire who spanked him/her or spank the original vampire (Count Spankulot himself). | |

In the first anime, Sailor Moon had a special attack just for purifying the victims of the Monster of the Week. While the attack was not meant to be harmful, the monster would usually scream and writhe before turning back to normal. | |

Sam & Max: Freelance Police: The two shown cures to the hypnosis Hugh Bliss and his cronies use are either a Battle in the Center of the Mind, or just hitting them in the head with a boxing glove. Given our heroes, they opt for the latter method. This culminates in Sam and Max having to track and punch everyone on the planet after foiling Bliss's mass hypnosis scheme and accidentally giving everyone the personality of Max. | |

Mega Man X: In Mega Man X2, you'll be forced to fight a reprogrammed Zero if you failed to get all his parts from the X-Hunters. Once you beat him, he comes back to his senses and helps you stop Sigma. As in Mega Man X3 you bring Doctor Doppler back to his senses, after fighting him. In the Mega Man X5bad ending path, you fight a Zero that has succumbed to the Maverick Virus and has gone Maverick himself. After you beat him, the two lay rone on the ground. As Sigma prepares to finish X off, Zero comes back to his senses and leaps in front of the blast, taking the hit that was meant for X. |

The Legacy expansion of Dragon Age II features the party storming the prison of ancient Darkspawn Corypheus. If your party includes "ex"-Grey Warden Anders, he starts hearing voices as Corypheus communicates through the darkspawn taint in his blood. He eventually becomes a mini-boss fight, after which he manages to resist for the rest of the DLC. Since Anders is also sharing a body with a hacked-off spirit of Justice, it's unclear which part of him you're fighting. | |

Digimon Frontier: Dealing a 'mon enough damage causes their data to be revealed in the form of a glowing ring of barcode-lines, which can be taken away, costing the loser power-ups, but also purifying victims of The Corruption.note Your core is protected from this; even after fatal damage you revert to a digi-egg and can hatch again like in the original series. This series is Lighter and Softer than its predecessor, which introduced the idea of taking your opponent's data - in Tamers, All Deaths Final applied whether data was taken by the winner or not! A lot of villains, all the way up to the Big Bad for the first half of the series, once he regenerates, are much friendlier after a sound thrashing made them able to be purified. | |

Upon being defeated by Spyro, her mind is released from the dark spell and she returns to her normal age, and afterwards spends the remainder of the series as friends with Spyro and eventually falls in love with him. | |

During the climax of The Crooked Man, the player character David is finally consumed with the sadness and despair of The Crooked Man's spirit, which exacerbates his preexisting feelings of misery over the unfortunate events in his life. You're suddenly given control of David's best friend Paul; he and his fiance Marion travel to the abandoned hospital where David is and come across Sissy, D, and Fluffy while traveling through, but when Marion tells him to stop messing with her by talking out loud to no one, Paul realizes that all three of them were spirits/non-corporeal memory fragments, and his ability to perceive ghosts means that Marion just sees him talking to the air; he insists that she turn back and wait in the car where it's safe. Eventually he makes it to the roof only to find David with a gun to his temple and The Crooked Man over his shoulder. Since every crucial dialogue point up until now has had the seemingly incorrect responses actually being the right ones, it makes sense that the only choice that doesn't end in tragedy is to actually pummel David; he's so surprised and angry with Paul for clocking him that it snaps him out of it. | |

Near the end of Dragon Ball Xenoverse, the Big Bad Demigra uses his mind-control magic to turn several of the Z-Fighters against your character. For the most part it falls under the heading of "Knock them unconscious so they can't kill me", but when the heroes start reacting after you beat them up, it quickly becomes this trope. During the marathon Final Battle, Time Patrol Trunks is himself mind-controlled, and resists the control long enough to encourage you to hit him more since it's helping him break free. | |

This happens once, indirectly, in Code Lyoko. XANA has possessed Aelita, but needs her alive as much as the children do. To coerce XANA into releasing her, Odd shoots at her repeatedly until she is an inch away from dying, at which point he surrenders. Note that XANA's process of extracting what he wants from her would kill her, so the kids have nothing to lose by threatening to kill her themselves. | |

In the OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes episode "Let's Get Shadowy", K.O. learns that his longtime enemy Shadowy Figure is actually the Split Personality Superpowered Evil Side of Professor Venomous. Venomous's minion Fink knew this, but never said anything because Shadowy Figure threatened to perform a Split-Personality Takeover on Venomous if she ever talked. Immediately after this revelation, he tries to do exactly that, but K.O. and Fink reluctantly team up and work together to defeat him, which turns him back into Venomous (for now). | |

The heroes solve this in the short-term by fighting the animals until they wake up, look around in confusion, and scamper off. This also happens when certain major characters become brainwashed, necessitating a boss fight to pummel them back to their senses. | |

One episode of Dexter's Laboratory has Dexter's mother, father and big sister all become infected by alien parasites that turn their skin green, their eyes red, and distort their voices. Dexter is forced to equip his Powered Armor to beat up his family (who, under the aliens' control, are all sitting on each other's shoulders so that all three can attack him together as a group) until the parasites abandon ship, after which Dexter immediately stomps the aliens flat, killing them. Afterwards, his parents and sister don't recall any of what happened, though they don't feel particularly well after the beating they received as they all lie in bed together. | |
