History ShoutOut / DanganRoleplay

* With the Monomovies as one of the first forms of entertainment this round, we've seen a lot of them, from ''[[Film/BadBoys Bad Bears]]'' to ''[[Film/{{Titanic 1997}} Monotanic]]'' to ''[[Film/HotFuzz Hot Fuzzy-Wuzzy]]''.

* [[spoiler:Rufioh's]] execution is a flat-out reference to the stampede in ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing'' and is even called "Circle of Death".

* Those who are familiar with both ''Machinima/RedVsBlue'' and the videos put out by its production company, Creator/RoosterTeeth had great fun subjecting Tucker to food challenges during Truth or Dare that MichaelJones has done during his time there.

** [[spoiler: Anna]] gave a particularly adamant [[VisualNovel/SuperDanganRonpa2 "I'll cut that claim to pieces!"]] during the Graduation Exam.

** From the top: this round Monobear dressed as [[Manga/FruitsBasket Tohru Honda]] for Saki, [[Podcast/WelcomeToNightVale Carlos and Kevin]] for Cecil, [[Franchise/AdventureTime Finn, Princess Bubblegum, and Flame Princess]] for Simon, and [[Franchise/ShinMegamiTenseiPersona the P4 Protagonist and Dojima]] for Adachi.

* The Fab Five (minus Mickey and Minnie, plus Daisy) appear as [[Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast shredded portraits in a hidden room]].
* The second tower has decorations from ''Disney/{{Hercules}}''. Yes, even the Scar pelt.

* The final investigation begins with [[Disney/TheSwordInTheStone putting a sword into a stone]]. The [[Disney/{{Tangled}} Corona sun emblem]] and Healing Incantation also feature.

* [[spoiler:The [[FisherKingdom castle and kingdom are restored]] with fireworks and a brighter makeover]] after the Final Trial. [[Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast Hmm.]]

* [[spoiler:Rufioh's]] execution is a flat-out reference to the stampede in ''Disney/TheLionKing'' and is even called "Circle of Death".

* During the Graduation Exam, after [[spoiler: Lysandre]] is revealed to be the mastermind, they're shown [[spoiler: [[Manga/PokemonSpecial sitting on top of Gyarados like a throne]].]]

* All of Monobear's cosplays were ShoutOuts to certain character's canons. Loki and Thor for Coulson, Manfred Von Karma for Franziska, [[Film/ConAir Cameron Poe]] for John, Fuher Bradley for Archer, Serena for Lysandre and Fran Madaraki for Veronica. The only exception is [[Film/RockyHorrorPictureShow Frank N. Furter]].[[/folder]]

Being that this is a panfandom game as well as a VisualNovel/{{Danganronpa}} game, THERE ARE A LOT OF THEM...

* During week 5's karaoke night Adachi sings the MightyMorphinPowerRangers theme song... because his [[Creator/JohnnyYongBosch English voice actor]] ''was'' one of the Power Rangers from the Mighty Morphin' era. Even better? Anna, the resident Disney character for this round, sang it with him; The Walt Disney Company ''owned'' the Power Rangers franchise for seven years.

* During the fifth investigation, Cynthia follows her own bloody footprints in a circle around the third floor, thinking she's hunting the culprit, much like [[WinnieThePooh Pooh and Piglet]] hunted woozles. (This is later [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by Betty at the trial.)

* Those who are familiar with both ''Machinima/RedVsBlue'' and the videos put out by its production company, RoosterTeeth had great fun subjecting Tucker to food challenges during Truth or Dare that MichaelJones has done during his time there.

* During the Graduation Exam, after [[spoiler: Lysandre]] is revealed to be the mastermind, they're shown [[spoiler: [[PokemonSpecial sitting on top of Gyarados like a throne]].]]

** He's once again shown that he's not limited to cosplaying characters from the canons that the player characters come from, this time dressing up as [[Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbean Jack Sparrow]] to play pirates with Schuldig.

* Some of the characters suspect that they're in an ImmoralRealityShow, leading to comments about real-life reality shows that ''aren't'' trying to kill people, like Japanese LongRunner ''Ainori'' (about a bus travelling around the world with a bunch of single people who hope to get a date by the time they're back home). Harvey and Haruka discuss Wario's TheFriendNobodyLikes status and compare him to [[Series/{{Survivor}} Sue]].

* Motives so far have referenced ''WesternAnimation/CourageTheCowardlyDog'', ''Series/TheAmandaShow,'' and ''Series/LegendsOfTheHiddenTemple''.

** [[spoiler: Anna]] gave a particularly adamant [[SuperDanganRonpa2 "I'll cut that claim to pieces!"]] during the Graduation Exam.

* Before tricking [[spoiler:False Dark Pit]] into eating cinnamon, Elizabeth asks him first which he likes more: [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} butterscotch or cinnamon?]]
