Lyrical Nanoha/Shout-Out: Difference between revisions

* Not an anime shout-out, but the ''A's'' in ''Nanoha A's'' is a phonetic sound-alike of "Ace," and that season also features the first appearance of "Belkan Knights," who utilize a triangle array in their magic. In ''[[Ace Combat]]'', the Belkan Air Force uses a triangle as its emblem and is rooted in the traditions of the ancient orders of Belkan knights.

* Fate's Bardiche has a whole heck of a lot of [[Shout-Out]] metamorphoses.

** The Zanber Form bears a distinct resemblance to a [[Super Robot Wars|Zankantou]].

** The Riot Zanber Stinger form bears a striking resemblance to the weapon used by Shelke in ''[[Dirge of Cerberus]]''.

* The villains of ''Force'' are the ''[[Super Robot Wars|Huckebein]]'' family. And in both ''[[Ace Combat]] Zero'' and ''[[Ace Combat]] 5'', there is another [[Ace Pilot]] NPC who's nicknamed "Huckebein".

* ''ViVid'' character Einhart has the family name of Stratos. Part [[Vehicular Theme Naming]], part ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 00]]'' reference. She also has an attack called "[[Dancougar|Dankuuken]]".

* Lutecia's summon, Garyu, is an insect like humanoid monster with a similar design to a ''[[Kamen Rider]]''. To add to this, its arm can form a blade similar to the one [[Kamen Rider Agito|Gils]] can form, has a [[Scarf of Asskicking]] and, in a fight with Erio, kicks in a very similar way to a Rider Kick.

* Vita's hammer can take on a form that is a reference to ''[[GaoGaiGar]]'' and another which references ''[[Gurren Lagann]]'' with a drill on the front. ''TTGL'' aired in the same season as ''StrikerS'' and the hammer is voiced by the same Japanese VA as Simon. Appropriately, that season showed Vita to be a [[Determinator]] like everyone's favorite [[Hot-Blooded]] ''[[Gurren Lagann]]'' protagonists.
