* ''Manga/{{Metamorphosis}}'': Saki Yoshida's first date post-makeover is with a guy named Hayato, who quickly picks up on her naivety. He gets her drunk, gives her a dose of some form of drug, has sex with her while she's high, then puts his number in her phone and leaves after she's passed out. She enjoys the experience and comes back to him repeatedly for the same, but it's clear that she doesn't understand how she's been taken advantage of.

* ''Series/QuantumLeap'': The plot of "Raped" -- a young couple going out on a dinner date, which ends with the young man -- the "golden boy" of a small town-he is about to cash in on a lucrative college football scholarship -- raping his date in the back seat of a car. Sam leaps into the body of the rape victim and has to testify (eventually he is -- with Al's help in finding the rape victim -- able to recount the events exactly as they happened). The boy is acquitted, but in the end, he doesn't get away with his actions at all, thanks to Sam. The epilogue notes that the prosecutor was a victim of this herself, and thus motivated to take up her career, having far more success in future cases.

* Dennis Reynolds from ''Series/ItsAlwaysSunnyinPhiladelphia'' has "an extensive history of felonious behavior" and multiple bench warrants for "sexual misconduct". Even his friends refer to his actions as rape on multiple occasions.
* Subverted on ''Series/{{Sisters}}'' when Cat (daughter of second-oldest sister Teddy) meets a classmate in his dormitory for a ''study'' date rather than the typical romantic scenario. They start making out, but she nixes it because she doesn't feel ready to sleep with him yet. He's not pleased, but she doesn't realize just how angry he is until she goes for her run that evening. . . and he shows up at the track and assaults her. During her attacker's trial, her aunt Georgie (the middle sister) admits to having been date-raped herself while in high school and another young woman lurking around turns out to have been a previous victim.

* The PV for "Genkai Haretsu" by [[Music/HidetoMatsumoto hide]] implies both this ''and'' that the victim is, afterward, kept in an induced coma by her rapist, who is the VillainProtagonist of the song. The "seems nice and normal" is played for great effect - the rapist character appears as a wealthy, respectable businessman.
* Music/WarrenZevon's "Excitable Boy" includes the verse "He took little Suzie to the Junior Prom/Then he raped her and killed her, then he took her home".
