* [[The Iron Giant|"Dark Magician! You are not a gun! You are who you choose to be! Now choose."]]

** Actually, because Kaiba is so obsessed with card games (COME ON, SUMMON IT ALREADY) it's actually "In fact, forget the blackjack and hookers!"

* [[Superman|This looks like a job for Limey man!"]]

* "We didn't start the fire! It was always burning since the world's been turning!"

 

* The episode's intro has the reference to a ''Cap'n Crunch'' cereal commercial: "Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged, it stays crunchy even in milk."

** This episode also contains the, "[[Castlevania: Symphony of the Night|What is a man?]]" dialogue.

* In the same episode, Yami starts [[It Was His Sled|listing spoilers]] because the villain is an obvious fan of plot twists. He's cut off by a title card, but 3 are heard that sound oddly familiar...

'''Yami:''' --[[The Others (film)|Nicole Kidman is a ghost]], and [[Citizen Kane|Rosebud]] [[It Was His Sled|is his sled!]] }}

** And again in episode 30, they have the speech from [[Castlevania: Symphony of the Night]], acted out with Yugi and Marik. It does, however, have a twist.

* '''[[The Dark Knight|BAKURA: You sounds nervous; is it the accent? You want to know how I got it? My father was a drinker, one night he went a little crazier then usual, so my mummy got the teapot to defend herself. He didn't like that, so he pours boiling hot tea all over her.

* [[Suburban Commando|"I was frozen today."]]

 

* Yugi's deckmaster Kuriboh sounds like the Hot Dog from ''[[Perfect Hair Forever]]''. And then there's the ''[[Sound Effect Bleep|(EFF!)]]''bombs.

* "And now I activate [[Robot Unicorn Attack]]!"

* After smashing a wall down with an ax, Tristan shouts out [[The Shining|"Heeeereee's Johnny!"]]

 

* After entering a room with four doors with symbols above them, Yami states "Oh lovely. A rejected puzzle from a [[Professor Layton]] game. That's just [[Gosh Dang It to Heck|fan-tucking-fastic]]."

* The maximum level on the Jiggle-o-meter is labeled '[[Cowboy Bebop|Faye Valentine]]'.

* [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]:

{{quote|'''Marik''': Bored now.}}

 

* Yugi: [[The Man Your Man Could Smell Like|Look at your deck...Now back to me...Now back to your deck]]...[[Transformation Sequence|Now back to ME]]

* Melvin states after unlocking the bitchy door that he is [[Resident Evil|the master]] [[Memetic Mutation|of unlocking.]]

 

* The title is a reference to Stepmothers Sin, in which [[Dan Green]] voiced the main character in the dub.

* Yami's sexy and he knows it.

* Kaiba is taken to Noah by [[Thomas the Tank Engine|Thomas the Dragon Train]].

* Yugi tells Yami to [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|believe in the Yugi that believes in the heart of the cards]].

 

* ''[[Doctor Who]]'' - The opening credits, complete with a Duel Monsters card replacing the TARDIS, followed by Yusei's bike making the iconic TARDIS noise when he leaves his era.

* Paradox has the same laugh as [[Dexter's Laboratory|Mandark]], and is accompanied by the theme music to ''[[Batman: Mask of the Phantasm]]''.

'''Yusei''': It's the guy who stole my card!

'''Jack''': [[Cloudcuckoolander|Waldo stole your card?]] }}

* Paradox is able to knock Jaden down. Afterwards:

{{quote|'''Paradox''': [[Persona 3|Stardust, here is your chance for an All-Out-Attack!]]}}

* Before Yusei goes back to Jaden's time, the Crimson Dragon says "Once you hit -per-hour..." in an obvious nod to [[Back to the Future (film)|Back to The Future]].

* [[Top Gun|"You can be my wingman anytime, Yugi."]]

* [[Rozen Maiden|Ah desu desu, bitches!]]

 

* '''[[The Venture Brothers|"IGNORE ME!!!"]]'''

* After a Master Shake stinger, Mega Ultra Chicken, and the tag team Steves portrayed as the Mooninites, anyone familiar with ''[[Aqua Teen Hunger Force]]'' can easily see that Little Kuriboh's a fan of the series.

** And then Kaiba's encounter with The Cybernetic [[A Christmas Carol|Ghost Of Christmas Past From The Future]]. Pretty blatant, that.

* [[Half Life|"Wake up Mr. Muto. Wake up and smell the card games."]]

* Marik Plays Bloodlines has "His hair looks like something out of [[Space Channel 5]]!"

* Kaiba almost starts singing "Friday". Luckly the camera quickly cuts away.

* In [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2Kje7OGrN8 a video] LittleKuriboh made for a fanartist, Tristan punches Joey and shouts "[[Atop the Fourth Wall|I am a man!]]"

* Probably an [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Evangelion]] reference: In "The Other Abridged Movie," when Gary Stu finds out how long the duel between Yugi and Kaiba will probably last, his internal voiceover frantically chants "I mustn't run away, I mustn't run away, I mustn't run away!"
