Go To

1'''Basic Trope''': A show with loads of [[ShoutOut Shout-Outs]].
2* '''Straight''': Most of the plot and jokes in ''Miracle [[LuckyCharmsTitle <//>]] Enn'' are referencing other works.
3* '''Exaggerated''': ''Miracle <//> Enn'' has a reference a minute, literally. There is at least one reference on every page of the show's scripts.
4* '''Downplayed''': ''Miracle <//> Enn'' has shoutouts, one every episode.
5* '''Justified''':
6** The main character in ''Miracle <//> Enn'' is an avid cinema watcher and video game player who likes to talk about his hobbies.
7** ''Miracle <//> Enn'' takes place in Jollywood, it would be weirder if they didn't show parodies of other works being produced.
8* '''Inverted''':
9** The show is ReferencedBy [[StockShoutOuts hundreds of other shows]].
10** Alternatively, almost every work up to 10 years after the release of ''Ancient Abyss Treble'' makes a ShoutOut to that work.
11* '''Subverted''': After the first season, ''Miracle <//> Enn'' starts reducing the parodies and homages in favor of original plots and jokes.
12* '''Double Subverted''': In the third season, the frequency of shout outs in ''Miracle <//> Enn'' returns to the level of the first season.
13* '''Parodied''': ''Miracle <//> Enn'' makes references even in scenes that are supposed to be serious. The terrifying, murderous villain won’t stop talking about ''Series/ArrestedDevelopment''.
14* '''Zig Zagged''': ???
15* '''Averted''': ''Miracle <//> Enn'' has just one reference every three episodes, if at all.
16* '''Enforced''': ''Miracle <//> Enn'' is being used to promote other works through shoutouts.
17* '''Lampshaded''': "If you make a reference to one more work, I'm gonna make sure that you'll smell of [[HypocriticalHumor napalm in the]]... uhmm, [[SubvertedTrope garbage bin]]."
18* '''Invoked''': Alice teaches Bob lots of things about movies, just so she'd have someone to share her references with.
19* '''Exploited''': It turns out the password is a classic movie quote, so getting Bob to talk about old movies will reveal the right line soon.
20* '''Defied''': "Stop with the references! You can talk like a normal person, Bob!"
21* '''Discussed''': "Have you seen this somewhere before?" "This event or our whole quest?" "Yes."
22* '''Conversed''': ???
23* '''Deconstructed''': With so many Shout-Outs, the probability that the creators of ''Miracle <//> Enn'' get sued is higher than if they had done less Shout-Outs.
24* '''Analyzed''': A documentary ''The Media of Homages'' tries to dissect the reasons why the amount of original material and jokes in comedic cartoons is decreasing and the amount of [[WholePlotReference Whole Plot References]] is increasing.
