Trouble is, the bulk of the poses in those images are used in so many anime, the point is kind of moot. In my opinion, they are included both because they are common anime things, but also that the characters think they are cool. That is- the chuunibyou characters may have seen those "cool" things, and want to replicate them. Kind of a feedback loop, if you will.
Indeed, I was the same as a teen. |

Some of the poses are too generic to identify with a particular show in my opinion. For example, I remember there is at least one mahou shoujo series that the heroine has a move using that heart-shaped hand gesture. Maybe Shugo Chara, I'm not sure. And if I want to do one with Houtarou, I'd compare with his thinking pose--the hair touching gesture with Yuuta when he was in front of the mirror.

But the Oreki and Mikuru ones have an absolutely uncanny similarity, and Oreki and Mikuru were both in KyoAni-made shows and this show is by KyoAni, so... I honestly do kind of think that those two bits were subtle shoutouts to other KyoAni characters and works. And that's fine. P.A. Works does this sort of thing all the time.

Well you'd have to be a hater of this particular show or a troll obviously if you ACTUALLY get hung up about Chuunibyou having SIMILAR poses to still shots of other characters, most of which are just normal gestures and not "signature" poses or anything.

Lantis made the CM for the ED single private likely due to footage from episode 2 in it. There's also the possibility they were waiting for it to air on TV prior to uploading it and made a mistake.
The PV for the ED has not been made yet; they're soliciting ideas through the radio show.

From Newtype, here's the main staff (minus scriptwriter) for the upcoming episodes:
2: Storyboards: Ishihara, Director: Kigami, Animation Director: Chiyoko Ueno 3: Storyboards/Director: Noriyuki Kitanohara, Animation Director: Nobuaki Maruki 4: Storyboards/Director: Eisaku Kawanami, Animation Director: Kayo Hikiyama (same as episode 1) 5: Storyboards/Director: Hiroko Utsumi, Animation Director: Miku Kadowaki 6: Storyboards/Director: Hiroko Utsumi, Animation Director: Miku Kadowaki So episodes 1, 4, 5, and 6 were/are from Animation Do. Interesting. Perhaps the main studio is focusing on the latter half of the series/web content/BD extras?
