** A few volumes later, Farnese is shown attending a ball that her rich, aristocratic father hosts. There she dances with her [[Arranged Marriage|fiancee, Roderick]]. Of course, true to ''[[Berserk]]'' fashion, the party ends with huge amounts of violence and bloodshed via demonic tigers and and soldiers from Kushan. What better way to end a grand evening in the Berserkerverse?
* In ''[[Gankutsuou]]'', while Franz and Albert were visiting the Carnival on Luna, Franz was shown attending a ball and dancing with the Marchioness. Of course, he has a really hard time enjoying the ball when the aristocrats there warn him that [[Horrible Judge of Character|Albert]], being out alone at night, is probably going to get mugged and beaten up (which is exactly what happened, plus getting [[Damsel in Distress|kidnapped]]).
* In ''[[Blood Plus+]]'', Saya attends a ball in her Vietnam school, borrowing a dress from her friend. Being an [[Action Girl]], she feels uncomfortable wearing fancy clothes like that, and is far more interested in the [[Big Eater|roasted chicken]] than in dancing. the [[Alpha Bitch]] stops by and decides to drop a few insults about how outdated her dress is, but of course, [[Prince Charming|Solomon]] invites ''her'' for his only dance.
* In the ''[[Black Cat (manga)|Black Cat]]'' manga, Train is duped by [[Classy Cat Burglar|Rinslet]] into pretending to be her lover so that she can attend Madame Freesia's Birthday Ball. Train, being a [[Heroic Archetype]], [[Men Are Uncultured|loathes fancy events like that and dancing]]. So although Rinslet wanted to spend more romantic time with Train at the ball, he [[Moment Killer|ends up instead running off to fight and capture a bounty]].
* In ''[[Black Butler]]'', since Ciel is part of an aristocratic society (being of [[Royal Blood]] and all), there are many dances and balls he attends. One particular instance that stands out is when he not only has to attend a dance ball, but must [[Crossdresser|crossdress]] while doing so. And he must avoid his [[Arranged Marriage|fiancee]] Elizabeth from noticing lest he be embarrassed. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
