!!First series
* Episode 7 is a ''Manga/SazaeSan'' and a ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar'' tribute. Ruby coming out of the pumpkin comically is reminiscent of the same scene in the Anime's Opening while Hattori himself is considered a Kenshiro {{Expy}}.
* In episode 8, a background character is drawn similarly to [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Amuro Ray]] and when his girlfriend slaps him, he says "Not even my father hit me!"
* Ruby is downing a costume similar to Marie Antoinette in episode 15.
* One of the {{Imagine Spot}}s in episode 44 screams ''Series/{{Ultraman}}'' all over.
** And another features [[Franchise/StarWars Rinko as Luke Skywalker and Dian as Darth Vader]].
!!Twinkle
* In episode 6, everyone is trapped in a boat in the middle of the ocean with [[Film/{{Jaws}} a shark chasing after them]], complete with a homage to JohnWilliams famous music piece.
* There are tons of shout outs from ''VisualNovel/NanatsuiroDrops'', because this series is written by the same person who wrote the anime adaptation of the series.
* The name of Miria's mother, Celine Bright, is likely a shout out to Music/CelineDion.
* In episode 28, Miria loses a singing contest to a singer named Susanne Foil. Some dubs make this even more transparent by flat-out calling her Susan Boyle.
!!Sunshine
* In episode 1-B, Kanon, Kaede and Komachi wear the same outfits as the Kisugi sisters from ''Manga/CatsEye''.
* The race in episode 5-A is overall evocative of ''Manga/InitialD'', complete with drifting and ConspicuousCGI.
* In episode 7, after the prison explodes, the song "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" by {{Music/Aerosmith}} can be heard. The walk Kanon, Jill and Shouko do after getting out of the burning prison is reminiscent of ''{{Film/Armageddon}}''.
* In episode 16-B, a timer appears on the bottom right of the screen, referencing ''Series/TwentyFour''. Also, the music that plays when Ruby and her friends are being chased by a boulder is a spoof of ''Franchise/IndianaJones'''s theme.
** The ''Franchise/IndianaJones'' reference was re-used in episode 19.
* In episode 25, several Jewelpets [[AbbeyRoadCrossing cross the road]] while Music/TheBeatles' "A Hard Day's Night" plays.
** Towards the end of the same episode, a montage of Garnet working her many jobs, attending a dance audition and being approved by the judges is a clear spoof of ''Film/{{Flashdance}}''; her dance is an almost perfect recreation of Jennifer Beals' during the title song.
* In episode 29-A, the way Shouko and Waniyama's fight is staged makes it seem like a ''Manga/SaintSeiya'' homage.
* European dubs pulled one with the title of episode 30-A: "All The Teacher Iruka's Men"[[note]]the Japanese title is "Look Behind You"[[/note]], a reference to ''Film/AllThePresidentsMen''.
* The M-Kage arc borrows very heavily from ''Franchise/{{Batman}}'', from M-Kage's costume to Nyangelina's role. The town it's set in is drawn in an obviously American comic book style.
* In episode 33-A, Kanon "burns out" like in Joe's iconic death scene from ''Manga/AshitaNoJoe''.
* Episode 34 is about the Plum class making a musical similar to ''Theatre/WestSideStory''. Additionally, in one scene, Ruby and co. come out in French Revolution-style clothing, with Ruby looking like Oscar from ''Manga/RoseOfVersailles''. Jasper also comes out of nowhere dressed more-or-less like ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'' and shooting web out of his paws.
* In episode 37, [[Franchise/{{Rocky}} "Gonna Fly Now"]] plays when Ruby and Opal try to settle their dispute through boxing.
* The second half of episode 38 is a parody of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRg8LjpSG9U this]] sketch from an 80's Japanese variety show called ''Oretachi Hyokin zoku''.
* An in-series shout out occurs in episode 42 when Shouko's team, named "Sunshine", is next to a team named "Tinkle".
* Sapphie's rocket in episode 47 [[{{Film/Apollo 13}} is number thirteen and breaks down in space.]] Sapphie's episodes also seem to have a lot of ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey'' references, particularly in the field of [[Music/AlsoSprachZarathustra music]].
* How both Garnet and Sapphie are defeated in episode 50 is nearly identical to how Kakyoin is killed in the Stardust Crusaders arc of ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure''.
* During Labra and Master's battle scene in episode 50, Labra performs an attack similar to Kenshiro's "Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken" from ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar''. The opening theme from the anime is played just to drive the reference home.
* The scenes in the mock preview of the final episode are references to ''Anime/MacrossFrontier'' and ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam''.
!!Kira Deco
* In episode 19, there's a shout out to ImageBoards [[http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x336/masterchicken/ORZ.jpg memes]], of all things.
* In episode 20, a parody of the ''Series/MissionImpossible'' theme plays when Blue Knight orders Garnet's guard force to attention. Garnet reveals that she has a beauty mask similar to [[Franchise/FridayThe13th Jason Voorhees']].
* A parody of "Gonna Fly Now" plays in episode 22, when Ruby and Retsu are running around being HotBlooded.
* In episode 24, Coal goes by the alias [[Anime/LupinIII Coalupin]] in order to perpetrate a robbery.
* In episode 25, there is an homage to Music/MichaelJackson's "Thriller" video, featuring Ruby and the zombified sardines copying the dance moves. A bit from the song plays in the broadcast version, but not in the home video one.
* In episode 35, Dian takes out his cards and says [[Anime/YuGiOh "Let's jewel"]]. Might be just a subs joke.
* In episode 39, ''Manga/{{Btooom}}''-stones; the subs-exclusive name given to the explosive stone that Ruby unknowingly threw at King's house.
* Episode 7 is a ''Manga/SazaeSan'' and a ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar'' tribute. Ruby coming out of the pumpkin comically is reminiscent of the same scene in the Anime's Opening while Hattori himself is considered a Kenshiro {{Expy}}.

* ''Happiness'' references a lot of things from the previous series, primarily in episode 3, where the Angela Cycle makes a return on one scene.
* In episode 9, one particular scene during the beginning has a shout out to the Alinamin V Energy Drink. All it needs now is some Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger cameo.
* Luna pulled a ''Anime/HeidiGirlOfTheAlps'' reference in episode 15 after casting her Jewel Magic to tame the goats down.
* Episode 19 pulled a [[Franchise/{{Gundam}} Gunpla]] reference. A model kit seen in Jasper's room resembles that of the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamCharsCounterattack Sazabi]].
* In TheStinger of episode 31, Sapphie comes out of the TV screen in the style of ''Literature/TheRing''.
* In episode 34, Lapis sits in the iconic chair from the erotic series of movies ''Emmanuelle'', popular in Japan. ParentalBonus out the wazoo.
** There's another scene where Angela is dressed like a [[Franchise/{{Ghostbusters}} ghostbuster]].
* In episode 42, one of the athletes is WesternAnimation/JohnnyBravo with pink hair, and he makes similar painful sounds when hit.
* The end of the series seems to be taken directly from the first season's since they both involve an outdoor feast.

Nope. That episode predated Gintama 252 by months. If anything, it was Gintama shouting out to Jewelpet.
Deleted line(s) 28 (click to see context) :
* There's a bit of a ''{{Manga/Gintama}}'' shout out in the second half of episode 38. This is similar to the anime's 252nd episode and ended in the same way.
