* At the end of the ''[[Gravitation]]'' OVA's, an executive asks Tohma (in English) what Bad Luck's appeal is. Take a wild guess what he says.
* ''[[One Piece]]'' is named after the greatest treasure in the series, that also happens to be the ultimate goal of the main character. Obviously, it's referenced its share of times as a result of this, though not quite as often as one might expect.
* ''[[
* Done when Mew Ichigo first names her group of [[Sentai]] [[Magical Girl]] "''[[Tokyo Mew Mew]]''". Thereafter, they're usually referred to as "the Mew Mews" unless there's something very serious going on where they need to live up to their name.
** The English dub, ''Mew Mew Power'', refers to the title in Zoey's (Ichigo) [[In the Name of the Moon]] line: "Mew Mew style, Mew Mew grace, Mew Mew Power in your face!" (This was something like "The five of us will serve for Earth's future ~ nya!" in the Japanese version.)

* In ''[[Kanon]]'', the title comes from Pachelbel's "Canon" ("Kanon D-dur" being its original German name), which is played in the coffee shop. It isn't until the middle of the series that two characters engage a metaphor-laden dialogue referring to it, embodying the themes of the series.

* ''[[Super Dreadnought Girl 4946]]'' [[Huge Schoolgirl|Mana]] is very insistent that she is not 50 meters tall, but 49 meters, 46 centimeters. Later, Jinguuji decides to make a light novel out of her story, which he calls "Super Dreadnought Girl".
* Subverted in the first episode of ''[[Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai!|There's No Way My Little Sister Can Be This Cute!]]'', where the main character is [[All Just a Dream|woken up by an alarm clock]] just before he could say it, but played straight in the third episode, when the main character's sister {{spoiler|finally calls him "Aniki" (big brother) for the first time.}}
* ''[[Hellsing]]'': "The dead dance. Hell Sings!" Thank you, [[Blood Knight|Major.]]
* There is a silver spoon in the cafeteria of the school in ''[[Silver Spoon]]''. No one knows what it's for yet.
