* Rin calls the Grail [[Literature/TheMonkeysPaw a "Monkey's Paw"]] in Episode 22.
** Also later in that episode, we find out that Rin's first memory of [[spoiler: beginning to admire Shirou came when she saw him practicing a high jump over and over again after school.]] This may be a reference to how Mizuki becomes infatuated with Sano in ''Manga/HanaKimi'', which was one of the biggest shoujo manga being published at the time ''Fate/Stay Night'' was originally released in 2004.
** This one may be more of a stretch, but there were some who noted that [[spoiler: the core of the Holy Grail rising out of the mass of flesh]] actually somewhat resembles [[Manga/AttackOnTitan the Colossal Titan.]] Or it could be a reference to [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Giant Naked Rei.]]

** Different from the ''Evangelion'' references, Gilgamesh's last actions before being pulled into the Reality Marble are to laugh at Shirou, in a manner reminiscent of [[VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters Iori Yagami]].

That dagger is a thing in Type-Moon stuff. It\'s important in Fate and Heaven\'s Feel, but doesn\'t really come up in UBW much, and its appearance in the VN predates Skyrim by quite some time.

* The knife Shirou conjures as the beginning of episode 25 bears a remarkable similarity to the [[http://www.uesp.net/wiki/File:SR-icon-weapon-ElvenDagger.png Elven dagger]] from [[TheElderScrollsVSkyrim Skyrim]]. That same knife appears in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment in the previous episode, when Gilgamesh is unleashing the Gate of Babylon on Shirou.

* Shirou's nightmare in episode 8, where swords erupt out of his body, is uncannily similar to how the Apocalypse Virus manifests in ''Anime/GuiltyCrown''. Actually a recursive Shout-Out, as the transformation and other things in ''Guilty Crown'' are a Shout Out to Heaven's Feel, which is what this foreshadows.
* Gae Bolg smashing its way through Rho Aias's layers of shielding strongly resembles the way a certain [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion other]] [[Anime/RebuildOfEvangelion franchise's]] DeflectorShields shatter like glass when they are overwhelmed.
