Subtle and Hidden references in anime to games and anime (IE: appearing on a poster in the background or a character owning a dvd)
| IE: You see it on a poster a character has figures of it or a dvd or other merchandise Umaru has a shelf of what looks like PS2 games In Oreimo, you see School Days among Kirino's stack of visual novels |
| My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine. We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by |
| 16-Bit Sensation is a treasure trove when it comes to this. Apart from all the visual novels featured on there, you've got lots of Magia Record and Lycoris Recoil references. I'm guessing Aniplex is the connecting tissue. |
| Can I Make Your Ears Happy in 180 Seconds? Has a Rail Romanesque poster appear for only a second in episode 4 |
 |
| SSSS Gridman is drowning in very subtle references. Evangelion, Ultraman, Starcraft, Transformers Mushoku Tensei has Guilty Gear references Rudy's old life has him Guilty Gear X2 The Midnight Carnival, plus some stuff around the room if I remember correctly. Also sculptures of Guilty Gear characters from time to time  |

| @Tap_Dancin_Kaiju ssss Gridman (which I have no intention to ever watch, thanks Keiichi Hasegawa and his horrible No. 1 Sentai Gozyuger episodes) is made by the same company that owns Urutoraman. Evangelion is also a urutoraman tribute, so nothing out of the ordinary. |
| References to Kamen Rider Black and Urutoraman in Yugioh Duel Monsters (Tiga was written with the contribution of the same guy) and the Joker card in Yu Yu Hakusho as a throwback to JAQK Dengekitai, References to Versailles No Bara in the 1998 Yugioh Anime and in Ranma 1/2, Satoshi Kon referencing himself in his movies, Ojamajo Doremi referencing the Sentais and Kamen Riders, and on and on and on. |
| Wakatsuki Nico in witch watch owns every volume of kochikame Manga. |
| I just remembered, Tensura frequently shows actual manga like Parasyte and 3x3 Eyes in the background/character's hands @ProudElitist ...Now that you mention it, I feel kinda foolish for not noticing that myself. Of course the Ultraman references would be self references lol |
| Lucky Star contains numerous Haruhi and Code Geass references. Alluka has an Usagi doll in Hunter x Hunter. No Game No Life has references to Castle in the Sky, Steins;Gate, and Persona. Death Parade has a Street Fighter reference. A Sister’s All You Need includes references to the Senran Kagura games. Look Back contains references to One Piece, Chainsaw Man, and Madoka Magica. Paprika includes references to other works by Satoshi Kon at the end. Takopi’s Original Sin has a Monster Hunter reference. Summertime Render features a Final Fantasy reference. |
