I assume you’re basing the abuse argument on the WWE logo in the corner. Everyone who didn’t notice that (me included, at first) just see a girl with a “how dare he?” look on her face. Which is actually pretty funny.
In case you’re wondering where all the downvotes are coming from.
I’m basing it off the trope that the guy starts to play a game and the “I’m in danger” quote.
It speaks to the fact that the gamer is probably doing the right thing and letting emotions cool, where the non gamer is upset at those actions and is in the first stage of an emotional or physical interaction that crosses the line.
Yeah, like, I noticed the WWE logo right away but assumed that was simply where the image of the woman was sourced from, and not intended as part of the joke. I didn’t take any physical violence tones from it at all.
Couple have argument
Woman leaves room, expecting to be chased
Man decides to play games instead
Woman has shocked Pikachu face
The Woman wanting to be chased is definitely childish, and possibly emotional manipulation, but I don’t think it’s intentional manipulation. At least, there isn’t enough context in the images alone to say that with certainty. Definitely a bit of a leap.

Didn’t really pay attention to the watermark.

I think you’re also over analysing and the other person is, simply put, an idiot.
That would make the top comment make a lot more sense
