Line 19:
* [[Cultural Cross-Reference]]:
** A shrine kami compares Moe and Yuya's relationship to [[Star Wars|Anakin and Amidala's]]. This gag originated in the Japanese script.
** Additionally, two episode titles are references to the [[Austin Powers]] series (and the episodes themselves take place at what the angelic location system calls "Point T-[[James Bond|007]]"). Ray Omishi must ''really'' like American movies.
* [[Cute Little Fang]]: Risky has one.
* [[Failure Is the Only Option]]: For Risky, at least. She receives increasingly-irritated nastygrams from her superiors over her failed scams for Moe's soul. (It's an [[Enforced Trope]]: somebody would have to die for Risky to succeed, and this isn't that sort of story.)
Line 53:
* [[Shinigami]]: Risky, who has a lot of skull motifs in her clothing, is a cross between the "[[Grim Reaper]]" and "[[Good Angel, Bad Angel|shoulder devil]]" portrayals.
* [[Something Completely Different]]: Done three times, first and third with telling stories from the pair's past, and second to [[Fractured Fairy Tale|turn the story of Momotaro]] [[Genre Shift|into a]] [[Space Opera]].
* [[Shout-Out]]s:
** Episode 8: "[[Golgo 13|Sniper Risky 13]]"
** Episode 13: "... like [[Star Wars the Phantom Menace|Queen Amidala and Anakin]]"
** Episode 14:
*** The entire episode is a shout-out to the Legend of Momotaro.
*** One of the green-haired bikini-wearing oni in Risky's group looks remarkably like [[Urusei Yatsura|Lum]].
*** The Momotaro spaceships look like they're on loan from [[Star Trek|Starfleet]], while the oni space fighters "Tiger Horns" are reminiscent of [[Space Cruiser Yamato|"Cosmo Tigers"]].
** Episode 15:
*** "[[Mobile Suit Gundam|Minovsky particles]]"
*** Safety's "Ama Kakeru Tenshi no Hirameki Cathartic Wave" is suspiciously similar to "[[Rurouni Kenshin|Ama Kakeru Ryu no Hirameki]]".
** Episode 19: Terry shares an outfit, verbal tic, and favourite food with [[Fatal Fury|Terry Bogard]].
* [[Star-Crossed Lovers]]: Wakatake, one of the Momotaros, and Kaede, a shinigami.
* [[Sweet Dreams Fuel]]: This is definitely a "healing" anime.
