History ShoutOut / FateGrandOrder

** One chapter opens with something different. Santa Altera and Caster Gilgamesh discussing who Nergal was and his relationship with Ereshkigal in a blatant EdutainmentShow format with goofy music in the background. It's identical to the AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle science scenes in ''Anime/MartianSuccessorNadesico''. Why? Because the company the main characters there worked for was named [[NamesTheSame Nergal]].

** The recruitment cutscene for Fran's team has her exploit Moriarty's fatherly instincts to ensure he won't be backstabbing her. When Babbage asks how she figured this out, she has him read an excerpt from a manual on dealing with evil servants. In the English version, it reads like [[https://i.redd.it/d447c2m239d31.jpg an entry]] from the Wiki/SCPFoundation.

* Caesar and Cleopatra have a visual dynamic similar to [[LightNovel/AccelWorld Haruyuki and Kuroyukihime]], respectively... which makes their quirky personalities stand out even when placed side-by-side with their Accel World counterparts.

** At one point while searching for clues, Tomoe Gozen is quite excited since it reminds her of similar searches in her video games, in particular one puzzle [[VideoGame/ResidentEvil1 involving a grand piano]].

* Minamoto-no-Tametomo's NP is basically the [[WaveMotionGun Satellite Cannon]] from ''Anime/AfterWarGundamX''.

** [[spoiler:The Round-Faced Priest is [[Literature/FatherBrown Father Brown]].]]

** [[spoiler:The Belgian referenced by the other four is [[Literature/HerculePoirot Hercule Poirot]].]]

** The limited-time Halloween CE Golden Wings is a blatant ''Anime/LegendOfGalacticHeroes'' reference, with Ozymandias and Arash as Reinhard and Kircheis.

** After the Hotel the crew goes to investigate a suspicious [[Film/DawnOfTheDead1987 shopping mall that turn out to be infested with zombies]], upon Murasaki immediately prays and hopes that they aren't [[Film/DawnOfTheDead2004 runners]].

** In Act 11, after Yu Mei-Ren [[spoiler:merges with her clone]], the player character has a dialogue option to ask her whether anything funny got mixed in, to which she replies that the idea she might have merged with a fly is ridiculous. This is a reference to ''[[Film/TheFly1986 The Fly]]'', where Seth Rundle accidentally fuses himself with a fly in a teleportation device experiment gone wrong and as a result gradually warps into a fly/human hybrid monster.
