{{quote|"The voice actresses did do a really good job of sounding like us," Mugi serenely noted.
"But we're better at sounding like us than they are," Ritsu added.}}
:* Discussed again in "Like Calls to Like" — the very first thing [[Sailor Moon|Chibiusa]] asks [[Kimagure Orange Road|Manami Kasuga]] is "Why do you sound like Sailor Mars?"
:* And then played with when {{spoiler|Japanese seiyuu start visiting their characters.}}
* [[Elaborate Underground Base]]: Played with by "Residence 51" in Colorado, which sits atop a half-completed underground base which seems to have been built in the 1980s by the US government or a military contractor, but was abandoned and apparently forgotten before it was finished.
* [[End of the World Special]]: Quoting from that trope's page: "Annoyingly enough, this has even carried on into ''Evangelion'' fanfics, where Third Impact basically means the writer can do WHATEVER THE FUCKING HELL THEY WANT, no and's, if's, or but's. Oddly, they all make more sense than whatever happened in the original, so maybe it's for the best." Thus, this is played straight in ''My Apartment Manager is not an Isekai Character'' with Shinji unknowingly considering a dozen other works while he remakes reality.
* [[Exact Words]]: When the undines of ''[[Aria (manga)|Aria]]'' ask to be sent to Venice, [[Literal Genie|Sebastian]] smugly arranges their delivery to Venice, California rather than Venezia, Italy on the grounds that if they had wanted to go to the Italian city, they should have used its proper name. (They did come from Neo-''Venezia'' in their home reality, after all.)
* [[Extra-Strength Masquerade]]: "Malleable causality" adjusts people's attitudes (and sometimes memories) toward strange people and things (the displacees) appearing in the setting {{spoiler|... until it's overloaded by too many strange people and things showing up at once.}}
