2* Reference is made to the many NGE [=AUs=] created with PossessionSue Shinjis, including but not limited to ''Fanfic/OnceMoreWithFeeling'', ''Fanfic/TheSecondTry'', ''Fanfic/NobodyDies'', ''Fanfic/ShinjiAndWarhammer40K'' and ''Fanfic/ChildrenOfAnElderGod''.
3* As with the other well-known [=NGE/WH40K=] fic, the author seems to be a Troper, and refers to several tropes by name.
4* There's also a brief reference to ''[[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Buffy]]'' in Chapter 18: "Bored now."
5* In Chapter 15, Kaworu imitates ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure Dio Brando]]'' by telekinetically throwing knives at Shinji, and then dropping a steamroller on him.
6* Shinji pulls a ''[[Franchise/StarWars Palpatine]]'' in Chapter 15, while clad in a black robe. '' "A pity you only learned this at the end. And now young [[spoiler: Angel]], you die," Shinji stated before pouring lightning into the body of the [[spoiler: Seventeenth Angel]].''
7** Beforehand, in Chapter 9, he directly says "to quote Admiral Ackbar: it's a trap!" about an Angel being suspiciously dormant inside a volcano.
8* Shinji quotes ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'' when he says he feels: "like butter that has been scraped over too much bread".
9* Chapter 16 has a double shout out to the ''Franchise/{{Terminator}}'' movies: Shinji says "I'll be back," then [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay sinks into Leliel with a thumbs up]] being the last part that goes under.
