* The main character of ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury]]'' meets Miorine at a greenhouse shortly before she's beaten by her [[Arranged Marriage]] future husband then accidentally winning marriage to Miorine in a duel against her abuser, which will be [[Revolutionary Girl Utena|very familiar]] to fans of the [[Yuri Genre]]. The writer of ''Witch from Mercury'', Ichirou Ookouchi, while better known as the writer for ''[[Code Geass]]'', ''[[Princess Principal]]'', and some ''[[Turn A Gundam]]'' episodes, was also responsible writing the light novel version of ''Utena'', and the [[Sega Saturn]] video game among other spinoffs. The background characters randomly comparing the Gundam's appearance to "the national emblem of old France" might also be a nod to [[Rose of Versailles|another highly influential early yuri work]].

** Chuatury Panlunch is nicknamed "Chuchu" and has giant balls of hair that resemble the ears of ''Utena'''s Chu-Chu the monkey. This one was unplanned, as her nickname prompted the character designer to give her that hairstyle without realizing the name was an intentional nod.
