Shout Out / Cyberdine Dreams

Go To

Much like Spectral Shadows, its fanfic story CyberDine Dreams contains a heafty amount of shout outs to various things. This will be an attempt to list them.

Side note: for the sake of not being redundant, any Shout Outs in Spectral Shadows that are used here should not be mentioned, namely if it's a character or a character trait; for example, if Harrison James appears in his Iron Man form in CyberDine Dreams it shouldn't be marked on this page as a shout out (especially since it's most likely already on Spectral Shadows' Shout Out page).


  • As mentioned on CyberDine Dreams, there's already a few Shoutouts to Jojos Bizarre Adventure, namely with Jikan's last name being Brando and him being a vampire with Time Stands Still powers (though Jikan can merely pause time and think, not unlike a gamer pausing a game, unable to move or change anything until time resumes).
    • Then there's his brother, Razzle Joestar. And Kayne's power gloves known as "Magician's Red".

  • Episode titles are not immune to being this either.
    • E1, "Blast Off", is the first song from Third Stage, an album by Boston
    • E2, "Counting Stardust", is supposed to be a reference to "Counting Stars" by OneRepublic.
    • E3, "Spy Hunter", is a reference to the midway game Spy Hunter.

  • Niko's bandmate, "Doro the Mouse" is a reference to the name Doromouse from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
    • Apparently saying that Doro is supposed to be like Doromouse In-Universe ends up with him giving the person saying that a death glare, if his reaction to the coffeehouse barista in Episode 2 is any indication.

  • Doro also does his own reference in Episode 3 when he and Niko confront Faril, a Camelodian spy sent to observe Tamagi and Christine, quoting a Micheal Jackson song almost word for word.
