* Usagi of SailorMoon was sent out to the hall in the first episode and a time or two since. It was implied she spends a lot of time there, to say nothing of [[RealityEnsues the damage it ends up doing to her grades (her own teacher singled it out as the reason why she keeps failing her tests)]].

* Similar to the ''Simpsons'' example below, the movie ''HeavenHelpUs'' has Catholic-school students who have to kneel on the floor with their arms out, balancing heavy books.

* One episode of ''TheSimpsons'' has Bart being expelled from Springfield Elementary and ends up attending a Catholic private school.

* An episode of ''[[DragonBall Dragonball Z]]'' featured Gohan punished in this manner, although the joke was at the time he was secretly one of the strongest people on earth.

* In ''{{Minami-ke}}'', Chiaki (with no authority) regularly disciplines a classmate with buckets.

* Usagi of SailorMoon was sent out to the hall in the first episode and a time or two since. It was implied she spends a lot of time there...
