The high amount of [[Shout
----
* The class overview CG is a good start. Contains at least [[Valkyrie Profile|Lezard]], [[To Heart 2|Ikuno]], and [[Suzumiya Haruhi no Seitenkan
** Also, the chubby guy in the top right corner looks a bit like [[Family Guy|Peter Griffin]], but it's probably unintentional.
* Tea house Shanghai was originally supposed to be a [[Higurashi]] reference, but the devs quickly backtracked and made it a [[Touhou]] one instead.
* After a conversation with Kenji, Hisao mentions a book he's reading a book about "an underground postal system that may or may not exist", a reference to [[Thomas Pynchon|The Crying Of Lot 49]].
* When Hisao wonders if he's [[Only Sane Man]], Kenji says that ''he's'' the only sane man in the school, and as a certain foreign film puts it, "[[Highlander
** It's also possible Kenji was referring to Jet Li's [[The One (
* Hanako is reading a book about "a boy and a tiger on a boat". This is [[Life of Pi]]. If you don't scare Hanako away in the library, she'll even namedrop it. At one point, Hanako also reads "Dance Dance Dance" by Haruki Murakami.
* If you join the student council, [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Misha will clap and repeat the word "Congratulations!".]] Hisao [[Lampshading|points out how needlessly repetitious this is]], but he doesn't get the reference.
Line 15:
* If you help Lilly's class with painting, in the background you can see part of the world map from the latter part of [[Code Geass|Code Geass R2]].
** In the Tanabata CG with Misha and Shizune, you can see [[Code Geass|C.C.]] in the background at one of the stalls.
* This might be stretching it, but Rin does mention Lilly using [[Umineko no Naku Koro
* Even Hisao believes that [[Poor Predictable Rock]] is [[The Simpsons (animation)|unbeatable]].
* Kenji ends one of his rants by saying [[Chrono Trigger
* When talking to Hanako about a certain book series, Hisao recommends she read the original book, but warns her that the sequels aren't nearly as good. However, he does concede that "[[Dune|The God Emperor]]" is pretty good.
* During a train ride, Lily mentions that the book she's reading is ''[[And Then There Were None]]''.
** Hisao picks up a random book in braille while in her room. While he's unable to actually read it, the title (not in braille) reveals it to be "Death on The Nile". Lilly apparently likes Agatha Christie's detective fiction.
* Kenji mentions at some point that he sees Shizune at Hisao's door, intending to give him his mail, and how he warded her off with the shine from his glasses.
{{quote|
* The nurse warns Hisao not to hurt Emi if he doesn't [[Hitch Hikers Guide to The Galaxy|want to be late, as in the late Hisao Nakai]], then admits that it sounded better in his head.
** Another possible reference to the Guide is when Hisao meets Shizune's father Jigoro, and wonders if he avoids to see him, then he also cannot see Hisao, just like the Bugblatter Beast of Traal.
Line 28:
* In Hanako's animated interlude between Acts 1 and 2, Hisao is carrying ''The Setting Sun'' by Osamu Dazai.
* Emi's route contains a scene in which you get the option to press her for more information or let it rest. [[Ace Attorney|It should be obvious what the reference is.]]
* Kenji mentions at one point, "She's like the [[Star Trek:
* "Like [[Braveheart|that movie]] about the life of William Wallace, where they took his stuff but not his freedom, and then they killed him."
* [[Super Smash Bros.|No glasses. No napkins. Whiskey only.]] [["Stop Having Fun!" Guys|The beverage of true men.]] And Kenji said that while {{spoiler|Hisao is heading for his literal Final Destination (the rooftop where [[Have a Nice Death|he'll fall down and die]])}}
* In Shizune's route, Hisao is annoyed at {{spoiler|[[Jerkass|Shizune's father]]}}, who is acting as though "he had to walk [[Rugrats|fifteen miles]] in the snow to ride a coal train".
* In Emi's route, Mutou, hoping to inspire a love for science in Hisao, offers him [[Stephen Hawking|"A Brief History of Time."]]
** In Lilly's route a scene in act 2 has the title [[Punny Name|A brief history of]] ''[[Punny Name|thyme]]''
* Kenji states at some point: "You're already spending less time here. That's the first thing they do. They'll try to split us up. Divide and conquer. [[The Art of War|Sun Tzu said that."]] It is possibly a reference to the [[Team Fortress 2
* In Emi's route, Kenji asks that Hisao deliver his [[Watchmen (comics)|hidden journal to the media]] if something should happen to him.
** Said journal is hidden in the [[Death Note
* When Hisao asks why Kenji is collecting items to maintain a fallout shelter in Hanako's route, Kenji praises him for being familiar with the [
* The [[Written Sound Effect|WrittenSoundEffects]] during Hisao and Emi's pillow fight are most likely inspired by the old [[Batman (TV series)|Batman]] TV series. WHAM! BIFF! SOCK!
* When Hisao's in Rin's room for the first time, she says the line "Are you going on some [[Mulan|training camp where they make men out of boys?]] Or mountaintop meditation?"
* The chapter in Emi's route when Hisao has dinner at the Ibarazaki house is called "[[Guess
* The description of the second-to-last chapter in Emi's good ending is "Sex, drugs, but no rock 'n roll".
* Apparently, Kenji tried to send a letter to [[LEGO]] in order to get them to make [[
* Hisao tells Kenji that Shizune has the habit of lifting her glasses just like he does, so naturally he concludes that she ''must'' be copying him and screams that she could be one of [[Invasion of the Body Snatchers|those pod people]].
* In Shizune's path, Kenji also mentions [[Sex and
* Hisao's thoughts in Shizune's route: "I [http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/card-crusher crush the note in my fist dramatically], but no one is there to see it, and that makes me sad".
* Early on, Hisao says that when they heard about his arrhythmia, his parents "practically had two hemorrhages apiece," a reference to ''[[
* One of the late scenes in Emi's route is entitled, "[[Overdrawn
* One scene in Hanako's path is called "[[Fullmetal Alchemist|Equivalent Exchange]]".
* On Lilly's path, Hisao makes a comment about her making "[[Noir (
* There's even some likely references to [[TV Tropes]], such as one of Kenji's rants using the phrase "[[Beyond the Impossible]]."
* Rin mentions that naming her art "unnamed" is still a name, "[[
* Mutou bears more than a passing resemblance to [[Doctor Who
* Misha quotes [[John F. Kennedy|President Kennedy]] at one point during Shizune's path. "Ask not what your school can do for you...but what you can do for your school!" This is possibly a hint towards her fondness of American culture.
