Kimodameshi, usually translated as "test of courage," is a summer game similar to going to an amusement park Haunted House. Pairs of teenagers (frequently couples, but sometimes it's Not a Date) negotiate a course at night that's set up to be as scary as possible; the path usually leads past carefully-designed eerie scenes, out of which an actor in a ghost costume will occasionally leap to increase the shock factor. It basically identical to PG-rated American-style haunted houses - and, like haunted houses worldwide, it's a chance to give teenagers an excuse to cling to each other. Kimodameshi is primarily a Japanese cultural artifact; it differs from a Western Scare Dare game in that the kimodameshi is more organized, and works like an ad hoc adolescent Rite of Passage. It's also an excellent excuse for the writers to spotlight a Love Dodecahedron or push along a Slap-Slap-Kiss relationship. Teams are sometimes randomly assigned, which gives plenty of chances for characters to regret being paired with the "wrong" partner.... Frequently seen in the Festival Episode. Compare Youth Is Wasted on the Dumb, Scare Dare, Intimacy Via Horror. |

Ai Kora has a chapter where our perverted hero sets up his classroom's haunted house at the school festival so as to be able to sneak around and take pictures of girls with his "beloved parts" in Rambo-inspired gear. When he sees two other guys trying to hit on the girls, he terrifies them into oblivion by striking from the shadows. | |

Ranma ½: One of the late stories sends the cast, paired off, into a "Cave of Lost Love" that really is haunted as part of a plot by UkyÅ� Kuonji (plus Shampoo in the OVA) to break up Ranma and Akane. The plan backfires quite spectacularly on UkyÅ� and RyÅ�ga Hibiki: comparing UkyÅ� and RyÅ�ga's selfish alliance of convenience (which has only just escaped breaking apart due to RyÅ�ga's own difficulty with controlling his emotions) to Ranma and Akane's bickering and angry banter, the ghosts conclude that Ranma and Akane hate each other, while RyÅ�ga and UkyÅ� are one of the happy couples they seek to break up. They promptly start ignoring Ranma and Akane to try and break up RyÅ�ga and UkyÅ�, ignoring their protests that they aren't the couple here. The backstory to the Cave of Lost Love heavily implies that, after this experience, they will never be able to become a couple — this is all but made explicit in the manga version, which ends with a scene of RyÅ�ga and UkyÅ� fighting bitterly over whose fault this was. Possible related to this trope is the "zombie-demon show" that Mousse takes his date to at the end of one late manga story. Unfortunately for him, as his date is Shampoo, she does not find it romantic or frightening in the slightest and is instead angrily disgusted, beating Mousse up and leaving him there for his troubles. |

In School Days, the cultural festival haunted house was basically a front for a private room where couples could have sex. Unknown to most of the student body, the activities there were videotaped for the later entertainment of the senior class. | |

Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out!: While on a vacation trip with their friends, Ami and Itsuhito decide to set up one of these for Hana and Shinichi, hoping that Hana will get scared and cling to Shinichi for protection (and thus give them a push into a Relationship Upgrade). They're in for a big surprise when it turns out that Shinichi is the one who's terrified to go into the dark and Hana is the one who has to guide him back (and wastes no time in poking fun of him for being such a scaredy cat). | |

Happens in episode 3.1 of Squid Girl, mostly as an effort by Eiko to scare Ika-chan, who wasn't raised in human society and has no idea why the whole ordeal was supposed to be scary. After getting separated from the group, Squid Girl then accidentally freaks out the human characters when she activates her glow-in-the-dark mode and chases after them, wondering why they keep running from her. When actual ghosts appear around her and escort her back to safety, she never realizes what they are, instead musing that not all humans are bad. | |

During the island arc of Assassination Classroom, Koro-sensei splits his class into boy-girl pairs to send them through the dark cave. Supposedly it's a test of courage, but really it's just an excuse for Koro-sensei to pair off the couples he ships together. | |

Spoofed in an episode of Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu. S�suke and Kaname visit an Abandoned Hospital at night, and Kaname hopes it will scare The Stoic S�suke. Given that he's been a mercenary since he was eight, intangible things like ghosts and strange voices don't frighten him a bit, and Kaname divides her time between being afraid, and getting annoyed at S�suke for not being afraid. The only thing that scares him in that episode is Kaname's apparent death, and he admits as much as the two of them ride home together on his bike. | |

In Amnesia: Memories, Spade World has the club-trip group in Shinano split into pairs and perform a dare to walk down a path in the very dark forest to leave flowers at a grave that has a ghost story surrounding it. Turns out to be a front, as the members of Ikki's fanclub manipulated the pairs and time to leave so that Ikki would not enter the forest at all, and the heroine would enter the forest late, get separated from her partner, and then left alone while actually surrounded by Ikki's fangirls and in potential danger — one Bad Ending actually takes place in the forest, where the fangirls succeed in their plan and harm the heroine enough to render her blind, deaf, and comatose. | |

In one manga story, when Ataru agrees to take Lum out on a date, their final dating activity is in a kimodameshi set up in a local amusement park. Lum, being an oni, isn't scared at all, but happily pretends she is as an excuse to cuddle up to Ataru. Ataru is likewise completely unphased... until they leave the ride and an old groundsman reveals that the two most persistent ghosts were Real After All. Though he turns out to have been just lying, this leaves Ataru petrified. This sequence got cut from the 1981 Animated Adaptation of the chapter. | |

In hololive ERROR, Honoka Omori makes some of her classmates (namely, all the named characters of 19XX) go through a test of courage, but rather than a simple fake ghost plan, they try to see if any real ghosts show up in their school's art room. In particular, it was inspired by the urban legend of a girl who loved painting so much she started hurting herself to use her own blood as paint before bleeding out to her death, and how anyone who sees her final painting is doomed to die. They... see absolutely nothing, but right after the kimodameshi ends, one Nanase Furukawa starts freaking out, which eventually leads to them all getting buried under the rubble of the soon collapsed school. | |

Kamen Rider Den-O includes one that's laughably un-scary to any rational viewer and most of the characters, but frightens Deneb so badly that it causes Yuuto to waste one of his two remaining single-use transformation trinkets. Also had a little chihuahua statue that scared the hell out of Momotaros for some reason. |

In Little Busters!, one of the later common route events involves Kyousuke setting up a kimodameshi for the others. The player can choose two of the girls to go with (plus an easter egg option where he goes with Kengo and Masato if you choose to hesitate for long enough), with different dialogue depending on the combination. Either way, the girls will be scared and Riki will be wary but ultimately figure out the tricks - unless you go with Kurugaya, who will instantly figure out what the 'spooky' things are and end up leading both the girl and Riki by hand. | |

A Fruits Basket example: Despite being terrified of haunted houses, Tohru agrees to accompany Momiji, Kyo, Yuki, and Hatsuharu through one at the beginning of summer break. She becomes so frightened she starts to cry, at which point both Kyo and Yuki offer to lead her through. Embarrassed, they begin to fight, only for Momiji to take Tohru's hand and scold them for letting their rivalry come between helping a girl in need. | |

In Chapter 10 of The Quintessential Quintuplets, Fuutarou is in charge of making one for his classmates, because he was self-studying while the tasks got delivered and the others put it on him. He decides to make the most of it and give them all as big a scare as he can, with Yotsuba's help. Save for Ichika and Miku, he seems to have been quite successful. | |

K-On!: Sawako-chan makes an appearance as the final scare, much to Ritsu's disgust when no one makes it to her trap. To elaborate, no one even knew the teacher was there, and she'd gotten lost trying to follow her students. She ended up giving Mio a scare so hard, she was reduced to a foaming mess. | |

Class 3-A of Negima! Magister Negi Magi builds a haunted house (complete with an actual ghost) for the gigantic, no-holds-barred festival that is Mahorafest. Given that most of the class adores Negi, there's a lot of fighting over who gets to escort him through it. | |

Urusei Yatsura: In one manga story, when Ataru agrees to take Lum out on a date, their final dating activity is in a kimodameshi set up in a local amusement park. Lum, being an oni, isn't scared at all, but happily pretends she is as an excuse to cuddle up to Ataru. Ataru is likewise completely unphased... until they leave the ride and an old groundsman reveals that the two most persistent ghosts were Real After All. Though he turns out to have been just lying, this leaves Ataru petrified. This sequence got cut from the 1981 Animated Adaptation of the chapter. In a later story, the students of Tomobiki High are made to go through a kimodameshi set up in their school, and none of them are scared — though they quickly pretend to be when they learn that it was the principal's idea. |

Sgt. Frog: One episode had Momoka suggest the group do this, as part of her latest scheme to get closer to Fuyuki. Same in the manga, where things are complicated by running into a real ghost, one of a Japanese fighter pilot from World War II who briefly bonds with the frogs. In the English version of the manga, "Kimodameshi" was translated to "Playing Chicken". |

Non Non Biyori: Natsumi decides to hold one at the end of summer vacation, but they use the village shrine rather than a graveyard for safety reasons. Komari gets picked to be the scarer, but the supplies Natsumi provided are pretty lacking; she gets caught in a Bedsheet Ghost without eye holes. Her brother Suguru makes it to the shrine and back without her noticing, making her think there really is a ghost. | |
