** Then he pulls his own spirit out of his body and fights Nendou's father, referencing the fact that Ghost is weak to itself in a certain franchise.
** And he is weak to ghost (if not a ghost himself) and bug. While dark isn't there for the full set, that describes the weaknesses of psychic in the aforesaid franchise. Also, anyone trying to fight Saiki or his (for want of a better word) friends generally tends to be very soundly trounced, referencing the fact Fighting is weak to Psychic.

''Manga/TheDisastrousLifeOfSaikiK'' contains many references to other works of fiction.
* Chapter 5: Nendou prefers that the protagonists of ''Manga/{{Nisekoi}}'' and ''Pajama Na Kanojo'' end up with Onodera and Makura, respectively.
* Chapter 6: The physical education teacher has the students play dodgeball because [[Manga/KurokoNoBasuke basketball]], [[Manga/Kurogane2011 kendo]] and [[Manga/{{Haikyuu}} volleyball]] are already being played ''somewhere''.
* Chapter 12: Kaidou is unable to swim despite wearing a bunch of life preservers, to which Kusuo retorts, "What are you, did you eat the [[Manga/OnePiece Devil's Fruit]]?"
* Chapter 17: When Kusuo explains his {{psychometry}} powers, he sees a vision of a customer reading an issue of ''Shonen Jump''. The issue contains the chapter of ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' that reveals [[TheReveal Tobi's true identity]].
* Chapter 23: The moon that young Kusuo flies past has a huge chunk of it carved out, making it look like a permanent crescent. It looks exactly like the blown up moon from the first chapter of ''Manga/AssassinationClassroom''.
* Chapter 27: Kusuo shudders at the thought of having to share his 48 cups of coffee jello with every member of Music/AKB48.
* Chapter 47: The café that Kusuo goes at times (and it's the place where his classmate, Mera, works) is called "Café Mami", a reference to ''Anime/EsperMami''.
* Chapter 90: The song Takahashi is singing in the beginning is "Konayuki" by Remioromen, an insert song for the TV drama ''Series/OneLiterOfTears''. The boy that takes Saiki's parfait also sings it in Saiki's fantasy, as identified by "Konaaaaaa" and "Futaaaaaa".
* Chapter 141:
** One of Kaidou's lies to his classmates is that there are going to be sequels to ''VideoGame/{{Shenmue}}'' and the 1998 Saturn visual novel ''Cross Tantei Monogatari''. 63 days after the cover date of the issue of ''Shonen Jump'' that chapter 141 was in, the Kickstarter for ''VideoGame/ShenmueIII'' was announced at E3.
** The omake after the chapter in Volume 14, released the month after the Kickstarter ended, pokes fun at how the lie somehow became reality.
* Nendou later mentions that he heard about the announcement of ''Shenmue III'' in Chapter 156.
* When Saiki prepares to get rid of Nendou's father, he first tried to destroy him with a [[Manga/DragonBallZ Spirit Bomb]], and then later asks the reader to recall a certain [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} monster based fighting game]] when about to use a physical attack (Fighting) on a Ghost.

* In the first episode of season 2, the ''Manga/{{Gintama}}'' anime is shown onscreen and pointed out. Saiki is annoyed that ''Gintama'''s characters have the audacity to plug their show during his airtime.
* In the last episode of season 2, the first visual of ''Manga/DrStone'' was parodied and then pointed out.
* In the 100th installment, Kaido and Nendou give a shout out to ''Manga/StrawberryOneHundredPercent'', befitting the theme of the episode.
* The fifteenth episode of season 2 helpfully informs the audience that ''Manga/{{Kochikame}}'' is ending.
* When questioning people about whether or not Saiki has psychic powers, Akechi asks, if [[Manga/DeathNote people die of heart attacks after Saiki writes their names in notebooks.]]
