So Bob is constantly angry. Maybe he has a bunch of Berserk Buttons. Or maybe he has a Hair-Trigger Temper. Perhaps he's prone to Hulking Out and going into a frenzy. Sooner or later his friends get fed up with his temper. Or maybe Bob decides to learn to control his Temper on his own. Either way, he'll do whatever it takes to become a calmer or more peaceful person. This Trope usually goes hand in hand with a Heel–Face Turn for villains, Anti Villains, and even Anti-Heroes, although the last one depends on how dark they really are. There are many ways they can go about achieving this inner peace. One of the most prominent ways is Walking the Earth. The character leaves on a journey to learn more about themselves, the world, and their place within the world. This often involves leaving behind their possessions as well. If the villain is the one who tames his anger, it may be because there's a bigger threat coming. The villain will put their hatred on hold until their common enemy is defeated. A common trope in martial arts series. A new disciple will become the pupil of an Old Master or The Mentor. The disciple will go from being a loud-mouthed kid or an Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy to a Martial Pacifist. This Trope is Older Than Dirt. In Classical Mythology after killing his music teacher accidentally, Hercules is sent to a farm to become a more peaceful person. Another old example is Moses from The Bible. After finding out that he was a Hebrew, Moses kills an Egyptian Slavemaster who's beating his slave and flees to Midian. While there, he gets married and becomes a wiser and more peaceful person. Contrast Teach Him Anger, where a Nice Guy or an Extreme Doormat is given a backbone. In a comedy, this often leads to We Want Our Jerk Back! because Status Quo Is God. |

Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith. At the beginning of issue #8, an Imperial Officer comes to report to the Emperor only to be Force Choked by Vader for the (supposedly) poor performance of his division. Emperor Palpatine stops his apprentice before he kills him. Sidious understands and acknowledges Vader's feelings about "lesser beings" in their Empire but warns Vader to not go too far in killing Imperials for two reasons: first, the Emperor does not want "to rule a galaxy of the dead" and second, he tells Vader that going too deep into the Dark Side means that his rage will control him. Vader does take the lesson on board, but it's difficult when he really is Surrounded by Idiots, some of whom are trying to kill him. | |

Ranma ½: Ryoga Hibiki is in a constant state of rage over Ranma kicking him into the spring that cursed him with turning into a little pig when hit with cold water. At one point he meets a nice girl named Anna. They gradually fall in love, and Ryoga notes that he has never been so happy in his life. He even considers staying on the farm and settling down with her, ending his never ending training journey, but decides he can't stand the thought of being separated from his first love, Akane Tendo. The fans were not amused. Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy Ranma Saotome is a milder example. In one episode, he gets Laser-Guided Amnesia after Akane makes him hit his head on a rock and starts to believe that he's a girl. Because he's a girl, he becomes nicer and more peaceful. |

Nutricula: After learning that Izuku has a Death-Activated Superpower — and that he is personally responsible for triggering its activation twice — Katsuki has a massive Heel Realization and is desperate to learn how to control his anger better. This also turns out to be why Mirko elected to mentor him; she possesses a similarly volatile temperament and wishes to help him out. | |

In the Miraculous Ladybug fanfic Fox Rain Lila's anger is her biggest flaw and hinted to be the reason why in canon she'd eventually become a villain, and both her friends from before Paris and Ladybug have made a point in helping her with it. In a variant, Lila is aware of this, she's just unable to keep it in check-and Ladybug snapping her out of an episode of anger is what makes her start to accept that maybe the heroine isn't a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing. It's also hinted that Ladybug used to have the same problem and has already learned that, and it's how she knew how to help Lila. | |

In the Unikitty! episode "Fire and Nice," Unikitty, after having an "Angry Kitty" explosion thanks to Master Frown, asks Dr. Fox to remove her angry side. However, the connection between them is not completely severed, and as Unikitty tries to repress her anger from all the requests she's getting (which are made worse thanks to Master Frown), her angry side gets stronger and stronger until Dr. Fox's machine can no longer control it and it escapes. Unikitty eventually realizes that she needs the balance of Angry Kitty and Nice Kitty in her life, but Dr. Fox points out she can't put them back together again. Of course, since this show runs on Negative Continuity, Unikitty and Angry Kitty are reunited for the next episode anyway. | |

Both Becky Conner and Darleen Conner from Roseanne during their teen years (most of the series), are angry and always fighting with their parents. By the end of the series, both are happy with their lives and not as angry (in other words they got through puberty). Darleen even hangs a lampshade on this. | |

Fullmetal Alchemist: Scar. Definitely Scar. At the beginning, we're introduced to an angry Knight Templar with a terribly sad backstory. The Amestrian Troops enter his country of Ishval for brutal slaughter of the Ishvalan people. This was largely aided by State Alchemists. Scar then decides to go on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge and kill every State Alchemist. After meeting Edward Elric and Alphonse Elric, Scar slowly pulls a Heel–Face Turn and by the end of the series he ends up saving Mustang from becoming consumed by his Wrath too. Bonus points for Mustang having been one of the State Alchemists who helped in the Ishvalan genocide. | |

In Hamlet, the titular character spends much of the play angry over Claudius murdering King Hamlet. In his anger, he kills Polonius which sets off a chain of events including Ophelia going insane and Laertes wanting revenge. By the end of the play, Hamlet has more or less come to accept the mistakes and enemies that he's made. | |

Classic Disney Shorts: Donald Duck is possibly the Trope Codifier for this one. He does it all the time. Needless to say, it doesn't last. Daisy Duck frequently tries to tame Donald Duck's anger, but it never works. Daisy has quite the temper herself, but she usually controls it. At least in comparison to Donald. Another Donald Duck example with the short "Bellboy Donald", he is forced by his boss to be pleasant and control his anger around customers, with the threat of being fired otherwise. Following this, Pete's son Junior begins exploiting this mercilessly and pranks him at every turn. Donald finally snaps and drags Junior to the manager, who fires him on the spot before a satisfied Donald spanks Junior mercilessly. In "Cured Duck"'', Donald is told by Daisy to control his temper. He answers an ad on the paper about a cure and gets a machine that doles out indignities at him for ten minutes straight, and if he can sit through the ordeal without losing it, he's cured. Donald is eventually cured, only now Daisy is the one who loses her temper. |

Dragon Ball: Tienshinhan and Chiaoutzou from Dragon Ball go Walking the Earth after Master Roshi shows them the error of their ways and they lose that anger. Tien in particular becomes The Stoic for the rest of the series. Dragon Ball Z: Vegeta is well known among anime fans for his many Berserk Buttons and Hair-Trigger Temper. He spent much of the second half of the series going on revenge sprees, to prove that he was the strongest warrior in the Universe. He was also known for his jealousy over Goku's power growth, however by the end of the series, he learns to accept his inferiority and pulls a full Heel–Face Turn. He's a much more peaceful character in the series. The Super Saiyan transformation is fueled by anger and once achieved the user is nearly overcome with rage. Goku and the others have to learn to control the anger or go berserk. It's hinted that one reason Goku's fight with Freeza lasted so long was that he was also struggling with the anger. |

In Inuyasha several demons went around with a chip on their shoulder. They were cruel, vicious, and only wanted power. Prime examples being Inuyasha, Koga, and Sesshoumaru. By the end of the series, Inuyasha settles down and is married to Kagome. He is a much happier and more peaceful person. Sesshoumaru is still aloof and still wanders the Earth with Jaken at his side. However, Rin has clearly changed him for the better, helping him move from being a cold-blooded killer to a stoic but caring individual. And Koga, at least in the anime, settles down and marries his betrothed. | |

In the Angry Birds Toons episode "Happy Hippy", Matilda tries to get Red, who had gone into an Unstoppable Rage from having to deal with the pigs, to relax. However, Red keeps on destroying everything in sight because he keeps on seeing hallucinations of the minion pigs until he accidentally knocks Matilda unconscious during an outburst. Once they wake up, Red has calmed down, but when Matilda sees the damage that Red had caused, she loses her temper and chases Red, who unsuccessfully tries to calm her down, and pummels him on top of a small structure. | |

Batman: Damian Wayne starts out with almost little to no respect for anyone besides his parents Batman and Talia Al Ghul. His anger leads to him nearly killing Tim Drake to replace him as Batman's sidekick.

Tom of Star vs. the Forces of Evil has massive anger issues that he's shown working on in almost every appearance, said issues being why Star initially broke up with him. Some of it stems from him being a Control Freak and getting upset when things don't go as planned but even after he's let go of that vice somewhat and gotten over jealousy relating to Star he's still shown to have a fairly short fuse in general. He's had more than one anger management coach as well. Marco came up with at least one way to get Tom to rein it in: offer a more pleasing solution than just obliterating the object of rage. Such as tricking some insulting drivers into getting themselves arrested for speeding. As the son of the rulers of Hell, Tom's anger issues are at least partially biological, as he has thousands of magical anger demons inside him, making his anger much harder to tame than it would be for an ordinary person. He tried to find a magical solution by extracting those anger demons within him, but this turned out to have two major flaws: he's got so many of the things in him that it would take daily torturous rituals for a decade to "cure" him, and based on others who have undergone the produce he'd be effectively lobotomized once it was complete. After an initial attempt, Star convinces him to accept his anger as a part of him and try to tame it the old-fashioned way. |

Played with in the final episode of Trollz, where the girls have all lost their tempers. Rather than losing their anger, they control and use their anger as a positive force. | |

Dan Vs. "Anger Management": It's played straight with Dan & inverted with Chris. Dan and Chris are forced to go to anger management. There, Dan learns to control his anger and Chris learns not to repress anger. This results in their roles getting reversed. Dan becomes a nice pushover helping the anger management teacher get revenge on people. While Chris becomes more confrontational. Everything goes back to normal at the end of the episode. | |

In the Regular Show episode "Think Positive," Pops tells Benson to stop yelling at Mordecai and Rigby or he will be fired. Benson tries to keep his temper in check and not yell at Mordecai and Rigby, but they intentionally go out of their way to provoke Benson, knowing he can't yell at them. Despite his best efforts to remain calm, Benson's rage builds up to catastrophic levels that threaten to destroy the park. Realizing they went too far, Mordecai convinces Pops to lift the ban on Benson's yelling, at which point Benson unleashes his rage in an epic "The Reason You Suck" Speech directed at Mordecai and Rigby. | |

In Code Geass, Lelouch Lamperouge and Suzaku Kururugi spend the second half of the series constantly in a state of rage and screwing up each other's plans. They both have their own reasons. Suzaku wants to kill Lelouch because he killed princess Euphemia. And Lelouch wants to kill Suzaku because Suzaku's fighting for the villains. However, by the end of the series, they realize that their constant fighting wasn't helping them reach their original goals, and work together towards a better future. By the end of it, they're more calm and happy, and Lelouch dies with a smile on his face. | |

Spider-Man: In the comics, he has a symbiote suit that turns him into a total angry Jerkass. Being that it's his Superpowered Evil Side and Spider-Man's a hero, it doesn't last and he goes back to being the Nice Guy that he usually is. It should be noted that it is only in recent adaptations that the symbiote suit does that. In the original story, it had no effect on his personality aside from taking him for joyrides when he was asleep, and he wore it for quite some time. The Clothes Make the Maniac portrayal started with the 1994 animated series as a means of introducing the suit and quickly moving on to Venom. | |

Fairy Tail has Laxus Dreyar, the resident Psycho Electro of Fairy Tail's guild. He was an arrogant Social Darwinist who rebelled against authority. He was in a constant state of rage over the weakness of many of the guild members. He threatens to kill the other members of the Fairy Tail guild, but finds out that he can't... because even though he would vehemently deny it, they were like family to him. He realizes what a JerkAss he was and when he is kicked out of the guild, he gladly accepts it and leaves with a smile. After Walking the Earth, he becomes a much nicer person and is eventually accepted back into Fairy Tail's guild. | |

Just like the example above, George Jefferson from The Jeffersons had a Hair-Trigger Temper, probably even worse than Archie Bunker. He does manage to control it on occasions, but only when he's trying to keep up appearances and curry favors. | |

In Doctor Who, the Twelfth Doctor is constantly struggling to control the anger that has built up in him over 2,000+ years of confronting villains, eventually losing everyone he loves, etc. He has a noticeably pricklier personality than most incarnations as a result, with No Social Skills, and at least two Berserk Buttons — war and his companion Clara (his Morality Chain) coming to harm. He also comes down hard on villains who can't be reasoned with, as his Badass Boast to the Boneless in the climax of "Flatline" makes clear. He does soften with time, but in the final stretch of Series 9 (his second season) she is Killed Off for Real and then his enemies torture him for four-and-a-half billion years, as escaping his chamber in a way that will further his plan to save her means he must constantly die and relive the torture. Billions of times. He emerges from this as The Unfettered Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds, so damaged that the only thing that can tame and restore him to his best self is forgetting her altogether, though he manages to recall the experiences he had with her. | |

In Child of the Storm, while Harry initially has more of a temper than he lets on, it's very rarely a problem, for all that it's warned that all the abuse and trauma he's suffered have been buried and festered into something very dangerous. Then, the first arc of the sequel proves to be a phenomenally brutal Trauma Conga Line, which leaves him with a horrible case of PTSD and a Hair-Trigger Temper, aggravated by a number of stress factors, and the rest of that book is a Mental Health Recovery Arc. Eventually, it mostly turns to Tranquil Fury, but if anything, that's even more terrifying. The start of the third book involves time travel and Walking the Earth possibly to give him some relative peace and quiet to sort his temper out. | |

Done hilariously in Family Guy. Brian Griffin finds out that Glen Quagmire doesn't like him. He goes out of his way to try and win Quagmire over, with each attempt failing miserably and Quagmire mostly puts up with it. At the end of the episode, Brian asks Quagmire why he doesn't like him. So Quagmire unloads on him every grievance that he (and the fans) have had with Brian over the years in one hell of a long "The Reason You Suck" Speech. | |

Dragon Ball Z: Vegeta is well known among anime fans for his many Berserk Buttons and Hair-Trigger Temper. He spent much of the second half of the series going on revenge sprees, to prove that he was the strongest warrior in the Universe. He was also known for his jealousy over Goku's power growth, however by the end of the series, he learns to accept his inferiority and pulls a full Heel–Face Turn. He's a much more peaceful character in the series. | |

Domon Kasshu in Mobile Fighter G Gundam runs on Hot-Blooded Unstoppable Rage for much of the first part of the series. It initially serves him well since said rage activates Shining Gundam's Super Mode. However, the limitations of this become clear when his rage falters at the sight of Kyoji. Right before he's about to strike, he remembers the kindly older brother Kyoji was as opposed to the monster (he thinks) Kyoji has become, and he fails to follow through on the blow. He then undergoes training to focus his rage into Tranquil Fury, achieving the more powerful Golden Hyper Mode. | |

In the The Death of Captain America, many heroes deal with the Death of Captain America in different ways. Ms. Marvel and Spider-Man deal with their anger over Captain America dying. Ms. Marvel decides to take out her anger by thrashing Tiger Shark, and Spider-Man takes out his anger by attacking Rhino. Funnily enough, they're both stopped by characters who are well known for having Hair Trigger Tempers. Namor lectures Ms. Marvel on controling her anger, and Wolverine talks to Spider-Man about dealing with loss. Ms. Marvel even calls Namor out on this. | |
