* Somewhere between homage, InternalHomage and MythologyGag is a scene in the second episode of ''Anime/DigimonDataSquad'' where Masaru attempts to hide Agumon by walking him around underneath a box -- much like Matsuda Takato from ''Anime/DigimonTamers'' before him. Made [[HilariousInHindsight even funnier in the dub]], as Takato and Savers' Agumon are both voiced by Creator/BrianBeacock.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Manga/SummerTimeRendering'': Several elements of the story pay homage to ''VideoGame/{{Siren}}'', a series of early 2000's survival horror games.
** The setting is similar to that of ''Siren 2'', which takes place on an island where an entity called Mother tries to escape her underground imprisonment using her army of [[OurZombiesAreDifferent Yamibito]].
** The shadows' ability to sense each other's location resembles a core mechanic of the ''Siren'' series called "Sightjacking", a skill that allows the protagonists to telepathically see through the eyes of the [[OurZombiesAreDifferent Shibito]] [[spoiler: which they obtained as a side effect of slowly turning into Shibito themselves.]]
** Hiruko first appeared as [[spoiler: a whale that washed up on shore, copied and devoured the first girl who approached her, and was revered as a deity after turning several other islanders into shadows to save them from a famine]]. This is a toned down version of the origin of the first game's Datatsushi, [[spoiler: an alien that crash landed near a starving village. The villagers mistook it for a fish and ate it alive, so in retaliation it used its dying breath to curse all but one of them to death. The lone survivor was bestowed immortality and started a religion based around bringing Datatsushi back to life.]]
** [[spoiler: Tokoyo, the setting of the final battle]], is a nod to the Yamibito Dimension from ''Siren 2'', as both are alternate dimensions with a red sky, perpetually eclipsed sun, and populated with docile shadows/Yamibito. The scenario itself mirrors the climax of the first ''Siren'' game, where Shinpei/Kyoya chases the weakened final boss into [[spoiler: an alternate dimension with no way of returning and finally destroys him with the one weapon Shide/Datatsushi is vulnerable to.]]
** [[https://www.animatetimes.com/news/details.php?id=1664409801&p=2 The author confirmed]] that the Extra Chapter records were inspired by the documents and snippets that can be collected in the games' Archive system.

* The music and visuals of ''Film/BloodMachines'' were deliberately made as a throwback to ScienceFiction and progressive rock from TheEighties. The technology has an aged {{Zeerust}} quality one would find in ''Film/Dune1984'' and the ''Franchise/{{Alien}}'' franchise, lasers look like a lighting effect, all of the music is synth-based and the entire film has a grainy film quality that makes it look like it's being watched on a VHS tape.
