* In Chapter 25, when Kiana's consciousness meets the "lingering image" of Himeko in the Gem of Haste, the former states that she'd like to see Himeko witnessing her when she finally becomes an S-rank Valkyrie... which is now impossible as Himeko is now dead. This is also a ''Naruto'' reference, when he laments that his mentor Jiraiya, who was murdered by Pain, can't be there when he would achieve his dream of becoming Hokage.

* The main event for 7.1, Starry Voyage: Strike Back! makes a lot of [[Franchise/StarWars Star Wars]] references, such as the supporting characters being named [[Characters/StarWarsLukeSkywalker Lucca]], [[Characters/StarWarsLeiaOrgana Leya]], and [[Characters/StarWarsYoda Master Yada]], along with Griseo quipping lines such as "May the Wish be with you." However, the actual plot of the event doesn't resemble any of the mainline Star Wars movies, just borrowing certain plot devices.

* "Captain's Ranch Tale": One of the achievements is based on a round of combat in ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}''. It involves finding a child named Pip who tries to capture the Captain to become his companion using a ball made of twigs, only for Luna to use her own "Grass Ball" (a ball made of actual grass) first. Pip concedes and leaves; the Captain remarks that they should leave, but Luna forbids this and instead asks for the Captain to use "Hold Hands" with her, since he's already been captured by her Grass Ball. The Captain agrees, noting that it's super effective.
