* While singing along to the opening song to Stardust Witch Meruru, Kirino does [[MacrossFrontier Ranka Lee's]] "Kira☆!" gesture twice. This is possibly also a nod (and maybe a subtle hint about how Kirino truly feels) to [[YuuichiNakamura Kyousuke's]] [[ActorAllusion voice actor]] having played Ranka's love interest in that show.

* Sena "Mystic Eyes" apparently have [[{{EvilEye}} mystic eyes]] that can [[VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}} see the death]] of anything digital. When she [[VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}} takes off her glass, they are as good as dead. No...deader than dead.]]

That's not even getting into the consoles' names, like Super Siscom ([[SuperNintendo Super Famicom]]) and Mintendu CS (NintendoDS).

* That clip from Maschera we're shown features some guy who looks like a cross between [[DarkerThanBlack Hei]] and [[Anime/CodeGeass Lelouch]] (who is apparently called [[NamesTheSame Lushi]]). The mask he was wearing is reminiscent of the mask worn by the masked men/[[spoiler:the Liese twins]] in ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaAs''.

* [[FateStayNight Kate/Starry Night]]

* During episode 5, when Ayase is having a... freakout... she yells over and over about lies, and how she hates lying. The next day, what flashes on the screen for a moment? [[VisualNovel/HigurashiNoNakuKoroNi A cicada.]]

Naturally, all of these titles have [[IncestIsRelative varying degrees]] of BrotherSisterIncest.

* [[Anime/DeathNote "Just as planned."]]

* Though their boxes are nowhere to be seen, Kirino also refers to ''SaiKano'' and ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'' by (partial) name -- "Tengen Toppa [[SisterPrincess 12 Sisters]]". This is in addition to an actual ''Sister Princess'' game box that can be seen in her closet.

Being a show focused on otaku, OreImo has tons of these:
