* The final plot of the villains, as well as the big three villains themselves, hold some similarities to the Instrumentality plot of ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'', with [[spoiler:Obito as Gendo (a man driven to darkness and cold madness by losing the woman he loved, ready to end the world with an AssimilationPlot to be with her again), Madara as Kihl Lohrenz (an old man manipulating the previous villain in his attempt to carry out the AssimilationPlot and make himself the god of the new world that would come to pass), and Kaguya as Lilith (the ethereal, ancient, ambiguously-alien feminine being of extraordinary power who is revealed to be at the heart of the AssimilationPlot that the previous two villains wish to bring about)]].

* The Four Tailed Beast is one big reference to Manga/DragonBall. Its design is partially based off of the Oozaru, the host's name is Roshi and its number of tails is the same as Goku's favorite Dragonball. Its horns are also apparently modeled after the diadem worn by Sun Wukong from ''JourneyToTheWest'', who is himself one of the original inspirations for Goku. And the four tailed beast's proper name is even [[NamesTheSame Son Goku]]!
