Line 40:
*** Don't forget to add a dash of ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''.
*** And ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED|Gundam SEED]]''. And ''[[Batman]]''
* Meanwhile, ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Gundam 00]]'' actually ''is [[Gundam]]'' meets ''[[Death Note]]''; or, if you want to be more accurate, ''[[Gundam]]'' meets ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'' with [[A God Am I|Light Yagami]] thrown in for good measure. (Incidentally, ''Gundam 00'' is from the same people who also brought you ''[[Code Geass]]''.)
** I thought it was ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam Wing|Gundam Wing]]'' meets ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]''.
* With the First Generation finished, it's safe to say that ''[[Gundam AGE]]'' is ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'' meets ''[[Martian Successor Nadesico]]''; you could also argue that Age is ''[[Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam]]'' meets ''[[Martian Successor Nadesico]]'' with a hint of ''[[Red Faction]]'' for good measure.
** As the story progresses it becomes more like ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'' meets ''[[Star Wars]]'', with its multi-generational storyline, pilots with Jedi-like reflexes and perception and its characters occasionally flirting with the dark side.
Line 69:
* [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|Yu-Gi-Oh]] in general can be seen as [[Pokémon]] meets [[Magic: The Gathering]].
* ''[[Kaiba]]'': The art style can best be described as ''[[Astro Boy (manga)|Astro Boy]]'' meets ''[[Yellow Submarine]]'' with a hint of ''[[The Little Prince]]''.
* Part one of ''[[
** Part two: ''[[Fist of the North Star]]'' meets [[X-Men|Apocalypse]].
** Part three: ''[[Fist of the North Star]]'' meets Mons.
Line 86:
* The first few episodes of ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED|Gundam SEED]]'' are like ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'' meets ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam Wing|Gundam Wing]]'' (The Strike is the original RX-78 (White/Blue Hero Gundam), Aegis is Epyon (Red Transforming Gundam), Blitz is Deathscythe (Black Cloaking Gundam), Buster is Heavyarms ([[BFG]] Gundam), and Duel is Sandrock (Semi-normal but heavily-armored Gundam). Later on, Freedom is [[After War Gundam X|Gundam Double X]].
*** ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED|Gundam SEED]]'' is ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'' meets ''[[Star Wars]]''.
** ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Gundam 00]]'' is ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'' meets ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]''.
* ''[[Digimon Tamers]]'': ''[[Digimon]]'' meets ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''. No '''seriously'''. [http://digipedia.db-destiny.net/misc/trivia.htm#6 See here]. (To clarify: there are many references to Eva. The general tone of it, however)
** ''[[Digimon Savers]]'': ''Digimon'' meets ''[[Power Rangers SPD]]''... at least for the first arc.
Line 207:
** Alternatively, it's ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' meets ''[[Gurren Lagann]]''.
*** For the old school attendants, this show is what happens when ''[[Revolutionary Girl Utena|Utena]]'' meets ''[[RahXephon]]'' after chatting with ''[[GaoGaiGar]]''.
* ''Katana'' is ''[[
* ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'' is ''[[
* ''[[The Tatami Galaxy]]'' is ''[[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei]]'' meets ''[[Groundhog Day]]'' meets ''[[Scott Pilgrim]]''.
* ''[[Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt|Panty and Stocking With Garterbelt]]'' is ''[[Excel Saga (anime)|Excel Saga]]'' meets ''[[Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi]]'' meets mescaline.
Line 217:
* ''[[Mai-HiME]]'' is for all intents and purposes ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' meets ''[[Foucault's Pendulum]]''.
* ''[[Loups Garous]]'' is ''[[K-On!]]''! meets ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni]]''.
* ''[[
* Similarly, ''[[Gunslinger Girl]]'' is ''[[Elfen Lied]]'' meets ''[[Saikano]]''.
* ''[[Highschool of the Dead]]'' is ''[[Saved by the Bell]]'' meets ''[[Resident Evil]]''.
Line 320:
** Speaking of which, Kagami Hiiragi from the same series is [[Martian Successor Nadesico|Ruri Hoshino]] meets [[South Park|Kyle Broflovski]].
*** With a dash of [[Haruhi Suzumiya|Kyon]] thrown in. Yare yare.
* [[
* [[Fist of the North Star|Kenshiro]]: Bruce Lee + The Road Warrior. Toki is Jesus + Bruce Lee. Souther is just an [[Complete Monster|asshole]].
* [[Ninin ga Shinobuden|Onsokumaru]]: [[Dragon Ball|Master Roshi]] meets [[Norio Wakamoto]] and the Wal-Mart smiley face.
Line 333:
** Evangeline A.K. McDowell = [[Touhou|Remilia Scarlet + Cirno's ego + Alice Margatroid's sharp tongue, with the powers of all three]].
* [[Pokémon (anime)|Ash Ketchum]] is [[Sailor Moon|Usagi Tsukino]] meets [[Ka Blam!|Henry]].
** Misty is [[Powerpuff Girls|Blossom]] meets [[Hey Arnold!|Helga Pataki]].
* King Dedede is [[Royally Screwed-Up|King Henry VIII]] meets Kim Jong-Il.
* [[Ouran High School Host Club|Haruhi Fujioka]] is [[Hana Kimi|Mizuki Ashiya]] meets [[Daria]].
Line 360:
*** Mu La Flaga = Sleggar Law + a bit of [[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam|Quattro Bajeena]].
** [[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny|Shinn Asuka]] = Amuro Ray + Kamille Bidan + Kou Uraki
** [[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Setsuna F. Seiei]] = Heero Yuy + [[Full Metal Panic!|Sagara Sousuke]].
* [[Puella Magi Madoka Magica|Kaname Madoka]] is [[Hidamari Sketch|Yuno]] meets [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Shinji Ikari]].
** Or [[Cardcaptor Sakura|Kinomoto Sakura]] meets [[Bokurano|the pilots of Zearth]].
Line 373:
* [[Kurogane no Linebarrel|Kouichi Hayase]] starts out as [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Shinji Ikari]] meets [[Martian Successor Nadesico|Haruki Kusakabe]], but following some [[Character Development]] he becomes more like [[Super Robot Wars OG|Ryusei Date]] meets [[Generator Rex|Rex Salazar]].
* ''[[Queen's Blade]]''
** Leina: [[Street Fighter|Ryu]] meets [[Fate/stay night|Saber]] meets [[Odin Sphere|Gwendolyn]] meets [[Fatal Fury|Rock Howard]] meets [[Saint Seiya|Seiya]], and in the sequel, ''Queen's Blade Rebellion'', she's all the above plus {{spoiler|[[Mai-Otome 0
** Menace: [[Cleopatra]] meets [[Fist of the North Star|Souther]] [[Yuko Goto|and voiced by one of his fans.]]
