But yes the series is full of SRW references. The most obvious is actually Signum considering she's voiced by Lamia Loveless and their backgrounds are rather similar. A friend of mine also claims in A's Signum tried to sound different from Lamia but in StrikerS he says she sounds exactly the same.
But they gave in to fans and made Blaster 3 = Nu Gundam + Fin Funnels lol

And yea Signum is a subtle Lamia Loveless reference, Vysaga as a swordswoman then combining sword and scabbard to do a bow, referencing Angelg.
