- Bastard!! (1988) has a lot of heavy metal references, but one of the hardest hitting spells is called Judas Priest, which is used to kill monsters of the caliber of Anthrasax:
- "Gran Kene Hill Halford! Now, my slaves, my four giant demons! Cackle and bray your utter agony and hatred! Judas Priest! Rise of Mega Atomic Destruction!"
- What Happened to Lani Garver: After Macy tells Claire's friends that she plays electric guitar, some of them call her Judas Priest.
- Guilty Gear, has two, one as the Finishing Move of Sol Badguy called All Guns Blazing, and Deuteragonist Ky Kiske has one in the form of his theme song in Xrd, Magnolia Eclair
has a similar riff to Electric Eye. Which in turn ends up becoming a Musical Spoiler.
- Aqua Regia also has a lot of rock and metal influences, but the first episode is called "Leather Rebel", which is also what inspired the moniker of The Hero, Daniel. The second episode is also relevant due the fact these are the lyrics of it:
- "Hero of the night. Blood and thunder rushing through me."
Chapter 4 also has it as a song called "Hellion", and as a Stealth Pun, at the end of it there're cyborgs with Electric Eyes.
- Beavis and Butt-Head love to sing "Breaking the law, breaking the law!" after antics. Ironically, they found the video for said song lame.
- The Simpsons:
- In "Monty Can't Buy Me Love", at the Fortune Megastore, Otto is at the music section listening to "Living After Midnight" at a listening station, then leaves muttering "New music? Man, all these bands are just ripping off Judas Priest.". Once he takes off the station's headphones, we see he was still wearing his own headphones, which was playing the song on his Walkman the entire time.
- In "Steal This Episode", Homer gets in trouble for illegally downloading a movie. As they take shelter at Springfield's Swedish embassy, the FBI tries to force Homer out by having Judas Priest playing "Respecting The Law", a rewritten version of "Breaking The Law" with Rob Halford himself singing it. The episode infamously got criticized for calling Priest a death metal group instead of a heavy metal group, and the next episode, "Married To The Blob", humorously apologized about this, with the chalkboard gag showing Bart writing "Judas Priest is not death metal".
