I feel you a little bit. Was watching Tokyo Ghoul last night, and this dude is like smashing the MC's head/face into the counter for what at least ran for 3, maybe 4 minutes- mind you that the thing was to be keep the MC alive coz "he's unique", but during that 3-4 min face bash, blood is splattering all over the walls n' shit.
Yet like mostly all anime that fall in that trend, MC is still alive- I know these characters are supposed to be superhuman, but...
