Tavernitis

A term most often used in reference to fantasy stories, referring to needlessly gross, violent, or cruel elements
haphazardly put into a written work in order to establish a "darker" setting, tone, or story at the expense of other elements. It's namesake comes from a reoccurring instance where the trope is established immediately through a scene of the protagonist saving a barmaid or waitress from a sleazy customer in a tavern or pub.
Burned through Shadow of Conqueror. Didn’t like much. Too much Tavernitis and anime extreme emotion moments.
