Rosario + Vampire/Shout-Out: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

* Also, a certain [[Ninja Gaiden|someone]] can be seen standing on a pole, in the background of [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/rosario_vampire_season_ii/v02/c007/19.html this page].

* In the manga, Nekonome-sensei claims to be "thirty years younger", thus "seventeen years old", a joke often used by her voice actor, [[Kikuko Inoue]]. Yes, the ''manga'' shouts out to a ''voice actor''.

** Well, it ''is'' Kikuko Inoue. She's kind of a legend at this point. The joke takes a new form when she voices Mizore's mother.

* Chapter 15 of the second manga serialization introduces the magical whip "Belmont", complete with title cover and panel done in the style of an early [[Castlevania]] game, which even features [[Goddamned Bats]]. The whip's power of magic canceling is identical to that of the Vampire Killer, the whip the Belmonts wield. Except that Belmont doesn't burn/kill vampires with a touch, like Vampire Killer does. Good thing, since {{spoiler|Inner Moka is the one who uses it.}}

* In episode 5 the soccer players' shirts are nearly identical to those worn by [[Captain Tsubasa|Nankatsu team]]

* Chapter 26 has [[Giant Robo|Giant Robo's]] [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/rosario_vampire_season_ii/v06/c026/11.html Fitzgerald]. I'd recognize those [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|snapping fingers]] anywhere!

* Tsukune's cousin Kyoko wears a T-shirt printed with a string of musical notes under the word "[[Nodame Cantabile|Cantabile]]."

* During the school festival, a [[Dragonball Z|saibaman]] can be seen in the crowd.

** Akihisa Ikeda seems to like his shout outs to [[Doctor Slump|Akira Toriyama's]] work [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/rosario_vampire_season_ii/v02/c008/18.html as can be seen here].

* In Rosario+ Vampire II in Ch 29, In quite possibly the most obvious shout out to [[Rumiko Takahashi]] ever, The third dark lord asks Inner Moka cosplay as [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/rosario_vampire_season_ii/v06/c029/10.html Lum] from [[Urusei Yatsura]] (without telling her what the costume is until after she's wearing it, of course), only because [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/rosario_vampire_season_ii/v06/c029/11.html he is] [[One of Us]].

* {{spoiler|[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/rosario_vampire_season_ii/v06/c030/32.html Akuha ] }} seems to know how to use [[Fist of the North Star|Nanto Rokuseiken.]] or at least something that looks like it.

* Ah, heck! They somehow managed to sneak [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/rosario_vampire_season_ii/v06/c026/23.html Akira] in for some reason...

* In Chapter 41, Touhou Fuhai's inner monologue reveals that he's out of energy, which apparently is like "A [[Doraemon|Robotic Cat without its pockets.]]

* Everybody: "Love and peace!"

* Jack Frost looks like a creepy version of the [[Shin Megami Tensei]] mascot.

* Rubi's fight takes place in a [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/rosario_vampire_season_ii/v10/c045/4.html corredor] that resembles the one where [[The Matrix|Neo fought Bane/Smith]] {{spoiler|likely because both fights feature electricity}}.

* The "Meaningless End-of-Volume Theater" [[Omake]] for Season II Volume 6 includes a scene where the girls adopt appearances based on characters from other series. Kurumu is wearing [[Odango]] with the little covers, Rubi has [[Spice and Wolf|Holo's]] ears (and tail), and Mizore has on a [[Haruhi Suzumiya|North High]] uniform.

** Seen [http://www.mangareader.net/rosario-vampire-ii/48/10 here].

* Episode 9 of the second season features the line "'''{{smallcaps|[[Kneel Before Zod|kneel before Kokoa!]]}}'''"
