Line 9:
** Britain has a magical government and subculture that draws heavily on ''[[Harry Potter]]''.
** "Yori" mentions to an FBI agent that there are pockets of magic in [[Anne Rice|Louis]][[The Edge (novel)|iana]], [[H.P. Lovecraft|the coast of Massachusetts]], and Arkansas.
** When Akane briefly mentions possibly learning how to use a sword from Shampoo, Nabiki's shudder at the thought of her with a sword in her hands may be a subtle reference to ''[[The Bitter End]]''.
** During their off-Earth "vacation", Ranma and Kasumi take Nabiki to a world which looks a lot like [[Star Wars|Coruscant]], although Nabiki compares it to a sunnier, cleaner version of ''[[Blade Runner]]''. And while considering what she's seen so far, she thinks of "the things, the people, and the things that are also people" -- which is almost certainly another deliberate reference on her part to ''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]''.
** There is a brief [[The Cameo|cameo]] by several denizens of the [[Discworld]] in the wake of the time machine's destruction.
