1* To ''ComicBook/IronMan'', ''Anime/MazingerZ'' and ''Manga/{{Guyver}}'' in one single scene.
2* In the final arcs of the manga, Rogue Finn built three {{Robot Girl}}s. One of them was armed with a RocketPunch, and other with TorpedoTits. Blatant reference to ''Anime/MazingerZ''.
3* Likewise, those three robots (Navel 08, Dark Cherry and Apple) are named after fruits (Navel 08 is a reference to [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cara_cara_navel Cara cara navel oranges]])
4* Apple uncannily resembles My from the ''Literature/TheMoomins'' series.
5* Talking about SuperRobotGenre, in one scene Damaramu [[CombiningMecha combined]] with a flying ship right like ''Anime/UFORoboGrendizer'' did.
6* Lufa's parents are named [[Characters/TheLegendOfZelda Link and Zelda]].
7* And Mia's parents are named [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario and Peach]].
8* Sonic--Dick Saucer's cousin--is named after ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' (hence, his impressively running speed).
9* Mermaids Rosa and Lydia are named after two characters of ''Videogame/FinalFantasyIV'' (although English-speaking audiences might be more familiar with the latter name getting translated as Rydia).
10* Secondary character Adol is named after ''VideoGame/{{Ys}}'' main character.
11* Simon Del Monte, his brother Ralph and their holy zombie-vanquisher LegacyWeapon sword are a blatant reference to ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}''.
12* When Mink and her friends arrive at the Azatodeth IslandBase, at the beginning it behaves like a ''VideoGame/DragonQuest'' game. There are random encounters every few steps, and a random warrior fights a tree with banners showing how many damage points he has got.
13* Vena being the daughter of a king who married a Slime is taken directly from ''VideoGame/TheFinalFantasyLegend''.
14* There’s a reference to ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam'' in Volume 3, Part 22, where Dick Saucer tells someone to “blame the misfortune of (their) birth”.
