Oh! My Brother!/Trivia
Trivia about Oh! My Brother! includes:
- Author Appeal: The author has made no bones about the fact that his avatar's preference for buxom girls reflects real life quite adequately.
- Fan Nickname: "God-Boy", for both the character and the author, although by the early 2000s Angel-the-author was doing his best to move past it.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: The author eventually married a woman named Ami, whom he met well after creating the character of the same name.
- Shout-Out:
- When Ami makes her wish and accidentally sets up the Love Triangle revolving around Chris, he invokes Ranma ½ and Tenchi Muyo! as comparisons to the mess his love life has just become.
- Chris wondering about the trouble caused by Urd's first wish assignment just might be a reference to Brett Handy's Oh My God?, another Ah! My Goddess Self-Insert Fic released shortly before Ah! My Brother!.
- He explicitly quotes Sam Beckett of Quantum Leap as the last line of chapter 6.
- Shiva from Final Fantasy VI makes an appearance in Heaven, and Ifrit is mentioned.
- Urd makes an in-universe shout-out to The Princess Bride when she says to Mara "Let me explain; no, would take too long, let me sum up."
- When trying to thwart Mara's attempt to break up Belldandy and Keiichi, he draws upon the knowledge and expertise of an unidentified counterpart in a Magic Knight Rayearth universe.
