History ShoutOut / Persona3

* Whenever Aigis performs a CriticalHit, she says "[[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay Hasta la vista]]".

* Those ''Featherman'' episode names every week? Look at the number and name of the episode, go to the Wikipedia page for ''Series/ChoujinSentaiJetman'', and go to the episode list. Every episode of the show corresponds to the ''Jetman'' episode of the same number. ''All of them.'' And, yes, ''Jetman'' is one of the main shows ''Featherman'' is an homage of.

* One of the weapons you can find for Aigis is the Six Shot. [[{{Transformers}} It can transform into six different shapes.]]

* Aigis's gun Phalanx B2 is clearly based on [[VideoGame/{{Metroid}} Samus Aran's]] ArmCannon, specifically in missile mode (and it seems to fire missiles to boot).

* [[spoiler: The Very Top of tartarus where Nyx Avatar is fought]] highly resembles the top of Temen Ni Gru from ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry 3''.

* When Koromaru saves the party from Ikutsuki, the Chairman says "[[Franchise/ScoobyDoo And I would have gotten away with it, too! If it weren't for you meddling kids and that dog!]]"

** For those who don't quite get that reference, Six-Shot is a Decepticon with [[CaptainObvious six different forms]].

* In the Japanese version, the takoyaki stand is named "Film/{{Octopussy}}."

** In the Japanese version, the takoyaki stand is named "Film/{{Octopussy}}."
** The way the Personas are evoked are quite similar to how [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure Jotaro Kujo]] calls out his stand for the first time.
** Not too many people think to combine teen angst, philosophy, psychology and religious symbolism, but nowhere is the influence of a [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion certain massively popular anime]] more obvious than in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pg06RvVzzdM&feature=related the awakening of the main character's Persona]] (compare with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obmyZac41-w this battle (2007 style)]] in aforementioned anime).
** [[Series/TheATeam Junpei: I pity the foo' who don't know when to quit! Mr. J says to throw in the towel, boy!"]]
** "[[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI I bet he'd slit his mama's throat for a five-yen piece!]]"

** Speaking of weapons, one of Junpei's earlygame weapons in ''Persona 3 Portable'' is the Great Sword, which happens to be a [[{{BFS}} hiltless, thick, raw mass of iron taller than the wielder.]] If that description doesn't strike you uncanny, here's a hint: [[Manga/{{Berserk}} it looks just like the Dragonslayer.]]
*** Unrelated, but some FridgeLogic: if it's really a reference to the Dragonslayer, how in Nyx's name is Junpei swinging around what is effectively a 400-pound replica of the Dragonslayer, let alone carrying it?
** Continuing with the weapons, the Female Protagonist's Beam Naginata gives off a very [[Franchise/StarWars familiar sound]] when swung.
** Two of the movie posters in ''Portable'' are Detonator and [[Franchise/FridayThe13th Friday On A Certain Day]].
** [[Franchise/RipleysBelieveItOrNot Junpei's Believe it or Don't?]]
** Aigis's gun Phalanx B2 is clearly based on [[VideoGame/{{Metroid}} Samus Aran's]] ArmCannon, specifically in missile mode (and it seems to fire missiles to boot).
** Nata Taishi's design is clearly based on ''Manga/AstroBoy''.
** The Persona [[Comicbook/GhostRider Hell Biker]]. Its Japanese name is Hell's Angel, which makes it a double ShoutOut.
** [[spoiler: The Very Top of tartarus where Nyx Avatar is fought]] highly resembles the top of Temen Ni Gru from ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry 3''.
** During one of the student conversations that you overheard before an exam, a student shouted [[VideoGame/TheWorldEndsWithYou "Sine! Cosine! Tangent!"]] [[note]]A quote from [[MadMathematician Sho Minamimoto]] in the game[[/note]], to which the other student promptly replied with "Megido! Megidola! Megidolaon!"
