* The dark shot of Senketsu's [[TronLines stripes]] [[PowerGlows glowing red]] with blood is likely a reference to ''Series/KamenRiderFaiz''. The titular Rider's suit had glowing red strips of Photon Blood powering it, becoming dramatically visible in the dark.
** While on the subject of Faiz, Junketsu looks simular to Kamen Rider Psyga from the movie ''Paradise Lost'', due to white and blue color scheme, and the lines placed idenically at the bottom.

** It's also no surprise that the main writer of this anime wrote one of the [[Series/KamenRiderFourze Kamen Rider shows]], which was in spirit with Gurren Lagann, one of his previous works. While Kill la Kill is more in spirit with ''Black'' and ''Faiz''.

*** When Nui rips up Sanageyama's uniform, she calls him a "naked ape." Not only is this JustForPun, but the fact that this was what Viral, who's a beastman, called human beings in general to disdain them. Now that his actor is playing a human being, this phrase was used back at him ironically.

* The X symbol on the soldier's "uniforms" of Nudist Beach is identical to the X symbol used by the ''Franchise/XMen'', particularly the ones from the the ''WesternAnimation/XMenTheAnimatedSeries'' cartoon from the 90's. Though here the X represents their hatred of clothing; their flag is a red X over a pair of underwear, whereas in X-Men it was a symbol for Charles Xavier.

* Inumuta's Final Goku Uniform has him sporting the same distinctive red, rhomboid, bridgeless sunglasses worn by ''Anime/TurnAGundam'' CharClone, Harry Ord, mixed with the looks of a Franchise/KamenRider. The suit's powers and the overall emphasis on lithe acrobatics make it a reference to Franchise/SpiderMan.
