* ''Manga/YourLieInApril'': The tune Kaori plays on the melodica in the first episode is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwvdAo7VSFo "A Morning of the Slag Ravine"]], the same tune that Pazu plays on his trumpet. It's implied that she's playing that song in the manga as well, since one of the children with her remarks that her playing hasn't attracted any birds and Kaori says it worked for Pazu.

* Somebody at Creator/{{Sega}} evidently loved this film. [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Dr Robotnik]] looks a lot like Papa, especially in the early concept art. Several ship designs''VideoGame/PanzerDragoon'' seem very similar to those seen in this film and finally ''VideoGame/SkiesOfArcadia'' is almost a whole WholePlotReference about a powerful lost civilisation and the hunt for an ancient city and it's technology between an imperialistic army and a rag-tag band of SkyPirates. There is a train scene very much like the one with Dola and Aika even sports Dola's distinctive hair.
