** During the first Servant battle, Rikku tells Mash "Fight not to win. Fight to not lose." from the ''[[VideoGame/GodEater Gods Eater Burst/God Eater Resurrection]]'', something El-Melloi points out later.
** The title of the 17th comic, "The Night, er- Hour Before" is a reference to the "night before the final battle" naming scheme for the events and skits for the ''VideoGame/TalesSeries''.
** Comic 023, the one after Sasaki Kojirou introduces himself, is titled [[Literature/IAmLegend "I am Regend!"]].
** After Sasaki mentions cutting swallows, Rikku asks "[[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail An African or a European swallow?]]".
** Comic 033, where Rikku throws a bucket of water over Jeanne Alter, is titled "Oh, Darn. She Didn't Melt.", referencing the Wicked Witch of the West's fate in ''Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz'' after Dorothy did the same to her.
** Also in Comic 033, Rikku tells Jeanne Alter not to underestimate worms, stating that "[[VideoGame/{{Worms}} Super Sheep, Bananan Bombs, and HHGs]] are terrifying."

** In Comic 055, when wondering why Elisabeth and Kiyohime are still with the group, Rikku qoutes [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaMk2 Nepgear]] by saying "What the goodness?"
** During Rikku's conversation with Caesar in Comic 072 "Proper Etiquette," she quotes [[VideoGame/TalesofSymphonia Lloyd Irving]], "Who are you to ask for my name?"
** The title of Comic 077, "You're making me tired. You wouldn't like me when I'm tired.", is a riff on David Banner's line from ''Series/TheIncredibleHulk1977'', "Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry."
** The title of Comic 089, "Forget the Noobs and Let's Go!", is one of Futaba Sakura's navigation lines in ''VideoGame/Persona5''.
** The title of Comic 096, showing the fight against Altera at the end of Septem, is "Let's Get Down to Business", the first lyric from ''WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}}'s'' "I'll Make a Man out of You".
** Rikku assures Da Vinci that she doesn't need to go to the infirmary after being bed bound from Nero Fest by saying "[[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail 'Tis only a flesh wound. ...I've had worse.]]" Emiya denies this and tells her that quoting Monty Python won't let her laugh her injuries off.
** Rikku's outfit during the first Halloween event matches the female protagonist from ''[[VideoGame/Persona3 Persona 3 Portable]]''.
** Rikku thinks that the fog machine in London resembles The Cauldron from ''VideoGame/OdinSphere''.
** In EX Comic 015, Rikku is listening to the opening song for ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' on her headphones and asks "Are you... robbing me?" when Mash gets her attention, referencing a scene where Ruby is also listening to the opening song and doesn't realize she's being held up at first because of her headphones. [[PopculturalOsmosisFailure Mash doesn't understand and Rikku admits that she shouldn't be surprised that she didn't get the reference]].
** In response to [[BadSanta Santa Alter's]] violent habits, Rikku says that she's never seen such a hyper-aggressive Santa before until remembering [[VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends Bad Santa Veigar and Santa Draven]] and deciding that they might be worse.
** Rikku jokes that she will use her [[Series/DoctorWho sonic screwdriver]] to fix Mysterious Heroine X's spaceship. The specific comic is titled "Who" to further the shout-out.
** EX Comic 026 portrays a karaoke session where Rikku sings "Exec_Cosmoflips" from ''VideoGame/ArTonelicoQogaKnellofArCiel'' and Mash sings "God Knows..." from ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya''.
** Rikku comments that Dantes' rants remind her of a certain "[[Franchise/{{Danganronpa}} Ultimate Lucky Student]]''.
** In EX 071, Rikku wonders if Dr. Roman's joy over making a friend means he's never had one before and asks herself if this is [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptunia how Neptune feels whenever she sees Noire]]. Present-day El-Melloi II clarifies that Rikku was probably just feeling pity compared to how Neptune likes to tease Noire, which present-day Rikku admits to realizing immediately afterward.
** The description for EX 086 lampshades how Rikku's ending for the mystery event includes references to two of the most well-known mystery series of all time. To wit, Adriana says "it's quite [[Franchise/SherlockHolmes elementary]]", and the culprit says "[[Franchise/ScoobyDoo And I would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for you meddling guests.]]"
