If there's one thing I really approve of in this episode(and maybe the series in general), it's how the references were handled this time. IMO the blatantness had never worked for Lucky Star, and now it seems that they're pandering to the crowd who likes them a little more subtly.

Like that half-Haruhi-face, Miyazaki Hayao-sensei in the background and Nakahara Mai's little shoutout to Tanabe-san of the episode staff(though I don't know who that is, his name appeared in the credits).

Much, much better IMHO.
