All About Lily Chou-Chou:
- Enjo Kosai: Hoshino eventually blackmails Tsuda into becoming this under his 'payroll'. Later she sees nothing wrong with her 'job' as it pays well. At one point she even stole her client's wallet.
Anime & Manga:
- Hell Girl has a lot of these, at least in the beginning of the series. And they receive their comeuppance. Boy, do they ever.
- The worst of them is Aya Kuroda from the anime's very first episode. She not only bullies her rival Mayumi Hashimoto, but she frames her for embezzlement, forces her into Compensated Dating to earn the money back, and blackmails her with photos of her "illegal/immoral behavior" Seeing her get Dragged Off to Hell is quite satisfying, even if Mayumi must also suffer the same fate when she dies.
Video Games:
- In one of the Yandere Simulator videos, Musume Ronshaku throws slurs at Kokona for being engaged in Compensated Dating to earn money and help her father with his debt, despite being more of a slut than her and wearing a shorter school skirt. She also mocks Kokona for her large chest, despite not being particularly small-chested, either. In fact, she has the third largest chest (1.5) after Kokona and Mai Waifu (2) and Saki Miyu (1.7) out of all the currently implemented characters.
Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches
- Cultural Translation: When rattling off rumors about what Yamada did in his first year that caused him to be suspended a second time, the chairperson mentions that one of the rumors was that he forced a girl into Compensated Dating. In the English translation, it is changed to Yamada threatening a girl into prostitution, probably because fewer Western readers would know what compensated dating is. The implication is also prostitution in the original Japanese edition, given that Shiraishi is shown in an Imagine Spot sitting half-naked on a bed while Yamada counts money.

I Think We'll Be Okay:
- Compensated Dating: After being demanded to pay debt to a loan shark, Kosuke becomes so desperate for money that she signs up to go on a compensated group date for 76,000 yen. (Almost $720 in US dollars.) Kosuke herself notes that while going on paid dates might not be bad in and of itself, she does acknowledge that pure and innocent dinner dates aren't what everyone thinks of when they think of compensated dating.

Yandere Simulator - Other Characters:
- Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: The ones who were removed at any rate. While Yan-chan can gossip with nearly every NPC student, this group immediately claimed disgust upon hearing that test-rival Kokona engages in Compensated Dating, and would exile her to sit on the roof by herself. Even Saki, Kokona's best friend, stopped talking to her. These were the same girls Kokona made a snack for earlier in the week. While Mei, Yuna, and Koharu only acted this way if they found out about the Compensated Dating, Yui… was a different case.
