| You Got Guts | comment |
This is a Stock Phrase, typically said by an older, tougher character, about a younger, supposedly weaker character. The older character could be an Aloof Older Brother or Mentor figure, or it could be a villain taunting his young foe. May also come in the form "It took guts to do what you did out there", where the older, tougher character relents on their initial contempt and admits their respect for the younger, weaker character. "Guts" may also be substituted with "balls" in some works. Hold Your Hippogriffs can even apply to this sometimes. Third-person variants are also possible, especially when the older guy doesn't want to admit his respect for the youngster to his face. Another third-person variant is often used for Black Comedy following a particularly gory scene. Examples |

The Walking Dead has an example riddled with Black Comedy. Negan is insulting Dirty Coward Spencer doesn't have any guts if he wants to be The Starscream to Rick, and promptly guts him. His reaction sells it. | |

In Zombie Land Saga Saki accuses Sakura of being a blind follower and tool of Kotaro. And then Sakura gives her a verbal smackdown in the form of a rap battle, pointing out she's not nearly as blind as Saki things she is. This earns her Saki's respect, and she agrees to go along with the crazy plan, blurting this phrase in the process. | |

Twice in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, the shiftless and greedy Ferengi earn the respect of their polar opposite, the Klingons. First is Quark in "The House of Quark". When he successfully proves a Klingon named D'Ghor is using money to try and bring down a rival great house. He proves D'Ghor is without honor by tossing his weapon aside and goading him into striking him down. When D'Ghor obliges, he's stopped by Gowron and stripped of his status for being such an honorless prick. Quark gets praise from Gowron for his ballsy plan. Right behind Quark is his nephew, Nog. When he bucks up to a group of Klingon's who consider him a joke (including the very dangerous General Martok), Martok is actually mildly impressed by his bravery and lets him have the win. |

In the Mass Effect series, a common compliment from krogan is to tell someone that they have a "quad", a slang term for a full set of four krogan testicles. Which is to say, they have balls. | |

My Hero Academia: Out on his first assignment while working for Fatgum, Eijiro "Red Riot" Kirishima takes on a drug-enhanced blade Quirk user. Since his own Quirk (Hardening) doesn't lend itself to subtlety, he faces the villain head-on, tanks everything dished out at him, and just punches him out. One of the bystanders compliments Kirishima's bravery with this trope. | |

After some verbal fencing, during which Bond points out that Columbo would be in danger if Bond doesn't report in, Columbo points Bond's gun at him.

Elona: If, after being ambushed by bandits, you chose to fight rather than hand over your goods and money, the bandit leader will complement you on having guts. Of course, if you're feeling sufficiently cheap, but don't have the levels to actually fight off the bandits, you can refuse to hand over money, then turn tail and run instead of facing the bandits. |

In the climax of Spirited Away, Yubaba says this exact phrase to Chihiro when Chihiro insists on taking the test.
