Line 25:
* In an episode of ''[[Digimon Adventure]]'', Matt and Joe have to work off a debt, since their money isn't accepted in the digital world. The digimon running the restaurant keeps them in debt by breaking dishes and blaming it on them.
* In a cute omake for ''[[D.Gray-man]]'', Allen is shown wearing a frilly apron, washing dishes, and taking food orders at the cafeteria in the Black Order. His reason? Because apparently [[Abusive Parents|General Cross]] got him more into debt, so he has to work it off.
* ''[[
* This kicks off the plot of ''[[Ghost Hunt]]'' - Mai accidentally injures Kazuya's assistant and breaks his expensive camera. Not being able to afford a replacement, she has to act as his assistant until the debt is paid.
** And later discovers that, because Naru-chan's equipment is insured, he didn't technically need to get her help to pay for the replacement. He just wanted extra help and the broken camera gave him an excuse. Lin's injury was more reasonable grounds, though.
Line 38:
* {{spoiler|Sakuya}} from ''[[Sensual Phrase]]'' has this in his backstory, as {{spoiler|his [[Parental Substitute]] raised him as a musician to pay the huge debt that his Sakuya's Reiko left behind after her death.}}
* In the second episode of ''[[El Cazador de la Bruja]]'', Nadie accidentally demolishes a pinball machine in an out-of-the-way diner and the owner makes her work it off by being a waitress for a couple days. Ellis joins her in the job, although it appears the owner didn't actually require it of her.
* This is how Hestia pays Hephaistios for creating the Hestia Knife, in ''[[Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?]]''. Considering [[Shockingly Expensive Bill|how much it cost]], it's a good thing that both goddesses are essentially immortal; the working arrangement will be going on for a long. long time.
