* In chapter 41, Amatsukaze uses the [[VideoGame/StreetFighter Shinryuken]] on an enemy.

* In chapter 55, Kongou says that [[LightNovel/{{Oreimo}} "my little imouto can't be this cute"]].

* In chapter 92, Damon likens [[spoiler:his cousin Jeannie when she comes to rescue him from the Harpers and their men at Nashville]] to [[LightNovel/CoffinPrincessChaika Chaika.]]
* Chapter 95 mentions LightNovel/NoGameNoLife by name.

* In chapter 99, [[spoiler:Jeannie [[LightNovel/{{TheIrregularAtMagicHighSchool}} snaps her fingers next to a drunk guard's ear,]] creating enough energy to stop all of his brain activity and killing him.]]
* Also in chapter 99, [[spoiler:Jeannie demonstrates the power to change vectors [[LightNovel/{{ACertainMagicalIndex}} "like another certain white-haired, murderous individual borne from a scientific experiment".]]]]

* In chapter 135 under Shirayuki's Fleet Log, there's one to Ayumu Aikawa from LightNovel/IsThisAZombie.

* [[spoiler:Also in chapter 261, Kawakaze's Firewater Protocol gets upgraded to give her flaming red hair that's [[LightNovel/ShakuganNoShana covered in flaking burning embers and a pair of wings made of fire that theoretically should allow her to fly.]] Hell, Kawakaze's pupils even begin to burn visibly and are called "Shakugan", in case the past references weren't clear enough.]]

** Sazanami [[spoiler:gets a three-fer like Mutsuki: a spiked ball and chain and a kitchen knife, the signature weapons of [[LightNovel/ReZero Rem and Ram]], but she doesn't get just one knife; she can generate multiple knives at once like [[Franchise/TouhouProject a certain knife-happy maid]], and sometimes they simply spill out from underneath her uniform skirt like [[LightNovel/{{Bakemonogatari}} Senjougahara Hitagi's school supplies.]]]]

** Shoukaku and Zuikaku are reenacting the [[LightNovel/LoveChunibyoAndOtherDelusions Sparkling Dream dance with the twirling fingers.]]

* When [[spoiler:Xenolith]] is finally given a proper description in chapter 238, he's described to be wearing lots of belts around his upper body from the torso up, a nod towards the character designs of VideoGame/GuiltyGear that predominantly feature a whole hell of a lot of belts.

* [[Machinima/LeeroyJenkinsVideo "A'ight, guns up, let's do this! LEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY - "]] followed almost immediately by, [[Series/{{Dexter}} "Suh-prise, muthafuck'a!"]]

* A subtle one, but the DSR-50 anti-materiel rifle that Damon picks up very early in the story and later gives to Zuikaku to wield in battle is a nod to the DSR-50 featured in VideoGame/CallOfDutyBlackOpsII. Similarly, though perhaps more noticeable, the FN Ballista sniper rifle wielded by Graf Zeppelin is also specifically taken from the same game.

* Chapter 213: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w21YjLymB4U "Type A Personality"]] by Demetori, VideoGame/{{Touhou}} arrange

* In chapter 135, Hatsuyuki wonders why she couldn't have gotten a more normal name like [[Franchise/{{Touhou}} Kaguya]] or [[Manga/HimoutoUmaruChan Umaru]].

* [[Franchise/{{Touhou}} "Fleet is now mobilizing, please wait warmly..."]]

** Sazanami [[spoiler:gets a three-fer like Mutsuki: a spiked ball and chain and a kitchen knife, the signature weapons of [[LightNovel/ReZero Rem and Ram]], but she doesn't get just one knife; she can generate multiple knives at once like [[VideoGame/{{Touhou}} a certain knife-happy maid]], and sometimes they simply spill out from underneath her uniform skirt like [[LightNovel/{{Bakemonogatari}} Senjougahara Hitagi's school supplies.]]]]

** Shoukaku and Zuikaku are reenacting the [[LightNovel/ChuunibyouDemoKoiGaShitai Sparkling Dream dance with the twirling fingers.]]

* [[spoiler:Blackwood]]'s fighting style, keeping his hands in his pockets and only pulling them out for iaijutsu-like quick strikes, is reminiscent of [[Manga/MahouSenseiNegima Takamichi Takahata's]].
