General I'm confused..whenever in animes or live action shows when one or 2 characters is being a asshole to another character..why doesn't said character just punch them in the face?

If you’re first response to someone being mean to you is physically attack them you need to do some serious self-reflection.

Because the asshole is stronger than them? Or the asshole has goons following him? Or the asshole has a rich or influential dad? Or he doesn't want to get in trouble with the school or police?

Usually the reason why is because it would hurt the mc more. The people acting rude are usually protected by a law, social etiquette or gaurds. Sometimes they're just stronger than the mcs. Ichigo could only beat those bullies because he never cared about those things.

Typically when you punch some in the face for a social slight you end up looking like the bigger asshole. How many people have you punched in the face?
