One very common #anime trope is the #shonen hero going berserk. Because of whatever triggers, a hero would perform some sort of fast and brutal retribution against enemies, and the reward would be a swift victory or even saving the world.

And good lord, what a terrible maladaptive coping mechanism they are teaching teenagers with #BPD.

The real world does not work like that. Being blinded by such coping mechanisms will more likely result in terrible decisions that make situations a lot worse.

@madelena I think that shonen titles can be a bit shallow at times (although, since people enjoy it, whatever) but I seriously doubt that kind of argument.

I think that someone's problems are far more complex than just seeing something in a cartoon.
