* [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Iku's Dragonfish Drill is the least subtle of the whole lot.]] (For those who don't get it, it's nearly a one-for-one recreation of the Gurren Lagann's signature move, the Giga Drill Break). Her Swimming Thunder Shot is also a reference to Great Mazinger's Thunder Break.

* Mima's Akashic Catastrophe involves her making a spell circle and sphere of darkness that should both look very familiar to anyone who's seen Galilnagant's Axion Asher. Additionally, the attack also shows some images of the other bosses of ''VideoGame/TouhouReiidenHighlyResponsiveToPrayers'', making this a double reference.

* Though arguably, it's a toss up between that and Hisoutensoku's moveset- Hisoutensoku as it is is basically a walking Anime/MazingerZ reference- [[EyeBeams Photon Beam]], RocketPunch and [[ChestBlaster Breast Fire]] all appear in its moveset.

* Marisa's Final Spark involves charging the attack in the same fashion as Shin Getter Robo's Stoner Sunshine (This has caused multiple people to call Marisa's upgraded form [[FanNickname Shin Marisa Kirisame]]). Most of Shin Getter's other attacks are in Remilia's movepool, including the Shinespark.

Between ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' and ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'', it shouldn't be any surprise that ''VideoGame/GensouShoujoTaisen'' is ''packed'' with references to both halves of its source material, and countless more besides.

* There's even one to ''Videogame/SuperMarisaLand''.
--> '''Marisa:''' [[SneezeCut ..Achoo!]]
--> '''Keine:''' What's wrong, Marisa? Did you catch a cold?
--> '''Marisa:''' ...Nah, it ain't a cold. Someone must've been talking about me. Being a hero's tough. All the people's expectations are real heavy.
--> '''Nitori:''' People have expectations of you...? Like for reforming all of mushroomkind?
--> '''Marisa:''' What, do you think I'm the hero of the [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros mushroom kingdom]] or something?
* And this gem. It's ironic since the attack she pulls off while saying this is relativelyeasy to dodge, and the game referenced is ''much harder'' than Touhou.
--> '''Kurumi:''' Ohhh, [=DoDo=]VideoGame/DoDonPachi!
* Whenever you choose to return to the title screen after saving, you'll get a quick little chat from the characters in the game. One of these, has this line.
--> '''Patchouli:''' …Oh, you're done for now? Hmm, words to say when the player ends the game… … Next time on Fantasy Maiden Wars, [[Series/KamenRiderFourze SWITCH ON!]] … Something feels off somehow…
* Stage 12 of ''Kou'' has a bonus conversation spot where Reimu, Marisa, Keine, and Alice can react to a piece of taiyaki that strongly resembles the head of Gaiking's ship, the Daiku-Maryu. Reimu's bonus conversation calls out the reference by name.
* The final stage in ''Kou'' has Flandre spouting out references to ''Literature/AndThenThereWereNone'', coming back again in her rematch halfway through ''Ei''.
* [[https://lparchive.org/Fantasy-Maiden-Wars-E/Update%2061/64-P19.3_-_(64).png This line by Marisa should she deal the final blow on Flandre with Master Spark]] is a clear reference to ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha''.
* Mima's Akashic Catastrophe involves her making a spell circle and sphere of darkness that should both look very familiar to anyone who's seen Galilnagant's Axion Asher.
* Byakuren's Master of the Great Trichiliocosm ends with the same shot of punching an opponent into an exploding mountain as Apotheosized Ialdabaoth's Shinha Goshou Sen.
* The Prismrivers produce an ''[[Anime/GenesisOfAquarion Aquarion]]''-style attack title card when using Ghostly Wheel Concerto Grosso.
* Marisa's Final Spark involves charging the attack in the same fashion as Shin Getter Robo's Stoner Sunshine. Most of Shin Getter's other attacks are in Remilia's movepool, including the Shinespark.
* The Aki sisters have three different combination attacks and ''all'' of them are references to Gunbuster.
* Elly and Kurumi's combination attack references the Psyco Gundam's reflector bits.
* Reimu and Sanae's combination attack is styled after the Chakra Extension combination attacks from ''Anime/BrainPowerd''.
* Shinki's Demoness Gospel is styled after one of Adamatron's attacks.
* The Komeiji Heartbreaker is a pastiche of the Royal Heartbreaker.
* Most of Full Armor Nitori's movepool references the ZZ Gundam.
* Cirno and Daiyousei's Twin Fairy Strike is named for, but does not particularly resemble, the Twin Bird Strike. Cirno's other combination attacks are named and themed after the Final Dynamic Special often given to Mazinger Z and Getter Robo.
* [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Iku's Dragonfish Drill is the least subtle of the whole lot.]]
* Meiling's Colorful Light Lotus Palm is based on Agares's finisher from OG Gaiden.
* Reisen's moves reference both [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Trans-AM]] and [[Anime/AfterWarGundamX the Satellite Cannon]].
* Wriggle Kick is styled after the Gespenst Kick.
