** Centorea's orgasmic reaction after tasting the carrots wouldn't be out of place in a series like ''Manga/ShokugekiNoSoma''.
** The "Final Destination" reference is preserved in the anime, with the addition of the scene of Kimihito blowing up, reminiscent of Kittan's demise in ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann''. Kimihito's cooking rampage at the end is also very TTGL-esque.

* Regular guy lives with a non-human girl who calls him "Darling" in GratuitousEnglish, loves him dearly but also can hurt him pretty badly, cooks stuff that is inedible for humans and wants to be engaged with him while he resists. Is this ''[=MonMusu=]'' or ''Anime/UruseiYatsura''?
* In the second chapter, Kimihito and Miia (who's a lamia, don't forget) take shelter in a love hotel called 'Hotel Loveless'. [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWars A lamia. Loveless.]] [[DontExplainTheJoke Get it?]]
* Miia cosplays as [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater FOX-era Big Boss]], with an EyepatchOfPower and all, in Chapter 10. Doubles as a StealthPun considering the ecchi nature of the series and the fact that Big Boss' old codename was ''Naked Snake''.

* Due to the internal conflict of the other girls' personalities she's mimicking, Suu channels [[VideoGame/DeadSpace2 Nicole Brennan]] at one point during chapter 13 while taking care of Kimihito. It's terrifying.
* The sword Cerea wields during chapter 16 is an [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings Anduril]] replica.

As expected, [[CrowningMomentOfFunny things get funny really quickly]] and turn into [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything doujin-lite]]. Also note that this series is the practical example of an overload of {{Cute Monster Girl}}s so this also comes as a DoingItForTheArt.

* In chapter 19, Kimihito is wearing a ''Manga/TwelveBeast'' t-shirt the whole time.

* In Chapter 31, the group brainstormed on how to help the onsen's business, Mero suggested a stage production starring Yukio, the Yuki-Onna owner of the resort, as the main character who freezes things with her powers, referencing ''Disney/{{Frozen}}''. Miia [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall worries about the copyright issue.]]
* In Chapter 34, a tired Smith does her best [[Literature/TheRing Sadako]] impersonation. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Kimihito.
