History ShoutOut / LightAndDarkTheAdventuresOfDarkYagami

* In chapter 16 Dark fights with two swords in his hand and one between his teeth, a ShoutOut to ''OnePiece''.

* In Chapter 30, Dark and Night are said to be blowing things up in '[[VideoGame/JustCause2 Just Course 2]]'.

* [[SuperMan "THIS IS A JOB FOR DESK LADY!" she said like {{superman}} and flew to the desk except she cant fly cos shes just a normal lady so she just walked but did it extra fast.]]

* The "sign the song that ends the world" bit has to be a ShoutOut to ''Webcomic/PennyArcade''.
-or rather Planescape: Torment

* Odds are, if it's a recent action game, it'll be referenced - ''Franchise/AssassinsCreed'', ''VideoGame/ModernWarfare'', ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'', ''Franchise/MetalGear''... even ''VideoGame/GuitarHero'' gets a ShoutOut.
** Amusingly, a flashforward showed ''VideoGame/ModernWarfare3'', described as "like the normal game but with laser guns". Then the game is released for real, albeit nothing like that description. And then, a few years after that, ''Advanced Warfare'' comes out and does indeed have laser guns. AccidentallyAccurate?

* Samanther is described looking "just like the drummer chick from that [[ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld scot pilgrim film]]" (Lynette Guycott).

* The author seems to be a KanyeWest fan; both Watari and Day use the "[[Memes/KanyeWest I'mma let you finish]]" construction, Light's mom "MAKES SOME TOAST FOR THE DOOSHBAG" (i.e. Near), Day has Kanye's spiral haircut and when he gets "burnt and twisted", he becomes a "[[FlatWhat BEAUTIFUL DARK TWISTED FANTASY]]" (in a chapter appropriately called "A Dark (YAGAMI) Twisted Fantasy"). He even makes an appearance as shinigami in chapter 43, writing "all his songs in a death note and that's why he kills!".

* In the first part of the epilogue, it turns out that Mello not only looks like LadyGaga (an assertion that the author made earlier in the series) but ''is'' Lady Gaga. [[StealthPun The fic then reveals that he sang a song about his "Papa", who is called "Ratzy"]].

* In the second epilogue-chapter Dark enters [[RougeAnglesOfSatin Sher]][[SherlockHolmes lock ]][[RobinHood Forest]] and finds Robin Hood's treasure-hoard.

* The fic has several pop culture references, including ''Film/TheDarkKnight'', ''{{Yotsubato}}'' (possibly unintentional), ''StarWars'' and ''ComicBook/{{Watchmen}}'' ("I did it thirty five minutes ago"). The author references one of his other fics in this, noting that it explains more about Roger's "creepy" behavior with a dog.

* In Chapter 13, Dark performs a ''DragonBall'' Kamehameha. However, it's misspelled as the "Kamy Hamy Ha".
