[[folder:''Danganronpa Kirigiri'']]
* Norman's Hotel is a fairly obvious reference to ''Film/{{Psycho}}''.
* Several characters seem modeled on the characters of mystery writer Creator/RanpoEdogawa. Shinsen is akin to the [[MasterOfDisguise Fiend of Twenty Faces]], Ryuuzouji has a number of similarities to Akechi Kogoro and Lico is a KidDetective with effeminate looks who pursues mysteries out of curiosity, much like Yoshio Kobayashi.

* Hiroyuki makes references to both ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'' and Creator/HarukiMurakami while rescuing Byakuya.

[[folder:''Killer Killer'']]
* Hijirihara makes Asano recite several stock phrases from ''Manga/TheKindaichiCaseFiles'' to unnerve the first culprit. Turns out his grandfather was a fan.
