<offtopic> I think I was the only one in the room to realize that Gintama was singing a folk song, besides the obvious Tokugawa Ieyasu jabs. Actually, I didn't realize it's a folk song until I looked it up - it was popular because a Japanese tenor's performance floated it on Oricon for half a year. Spoiler for Listen to it here:

In episode 17, there is a reference which was only very briefly covered. If I may, there are a few more details which might serve interesting.
The drawings in Konata's History book were indeed from Noein: To Your Other Self. They are of the Dragon Knights (also known as the Dragon Cavalry). In the middle is the main knight, Karasu, who appears to be tortured by Atori, which is the figure to the left. Atori always wished to inflictincredible pain on Karasu and hated him with a passion, hence why he is pictured laughing. The figure to the right is Fukuro, who is Karasu's best friend. Although the two are close, their conflict over Haruka (whos name is being called in this drawing) has resulted in fights. Karasu's words "I'm not giving that up!" refer to Haruka, who is the 'Dragon Torque' and serves as the salvation for the world the Dragon Knights come from. |

In episode 15 of Lucky Star, Konata's dad walks in and asks her about her book. She replies "Unique."
-This is a reference to an episode of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, when Kyon asks Yuki about her book and she also replies "Unique." I don't know the episode number but i will try to find it and post a link. In episode 18 of Lucky Star, When Tsukasa is comparing Miyuki to a sheep Miyuki says "Fumoffu." -This is a reference to Full Metal Panic! Fumoffu, where there is a theme park mascot who can only say "Fumoffu." There are also many apperances of this mascot throughout Lucky Star. Hope this info is usefull to completing your reference thread! |
