Go To

1* Read the initials of the default high score table in ''[=DonPachi=]'', top to bottom then left to right. They spell out "TOAPLAN.FOREVER", a tribute to the now-gone Creator/{{Toaplan}}, which was one of the most influential shmup developers and whose employees would go on to join other shmup-developing companies, including CAVE.
2* Toaplan would get referenced again in ''dai ou jou'', where in keeping with [[ThemeNaming theme]] of naming the songs after various shmup developers, the theme of the ''very first stage'' is called "Tōa" (東亞). As in "Tōaplan" (東亜プラン). Even eight years later, the CAVE team had ''not'' forgotten about them.
3* Leinyan's ending in ''[=DaiOuJou=]''. [[spoiler:Not even the government deactivating her and locking her in a research facility is able to stop her being with her love, her human pilot.]]
4* The true endings of ''[=SaiDaiOuJou=]'' that occur for each character [[spoiler: after you defeat [[TrueFinalBoss Hibachi]]]] has your Element Doll vowing to stay by your side no matter what.
