That's not a random one, is the main thing. That's the founder of CLG, which is one of the biggest names in NA LoL, and one of the most popular NA teams in the east due to them moving to Korea for some time and playing in the tournaments over there.

Trigger shows have a ton of cartoon + other references. From the old days they were in Gainax till now. From movies like Romeo + Juliet (The Leonardo DiCaprio one), games and even cartoons like Tranformers + MLP. They have like dozens of reference in everything they make.

>>78013419
Are you serious?
That's amazing, if it's true.

Technically game, but Guilty Gear is full of references to western rock and metal bands, to the point where one of the main characters is named after two ex-members of Helloween.

American culture in particular is relatively easy for them to stomach because burgers just so happen to have a lot of similar values to them, so we appear quirky, but not unnervingly foreign, as opposed to those spooky Norks which might /look/ sort of like em', but act like aliens in comparison.

Guilty Gear is a weird case. It's heavily inspired by Jojo (Sol has Jotaro's catchphrase, Everything about Zappa's design and Raoh, Robo-Ky has DAME DAME as MUDA MUDA, ect) which references western music, so Guilty Gear does the same in turn.

That said, Guilty Gear is a shitload more subtle about it than Jojo, with most of the references being in the names of the character's special moves (Millia's Iron Maiden, Bridget's Kickstart My Heart, ect)

Also, GG has referenced Dr. Who, The Ring, McDonalds, DBZ, Zorro, Hunger Games, and...Seinfield. The comedian, not the show.

>>78016129

Come on now. Everyone knows that alien tractor beams can only handle cows! Basic UFO 101.

>>78016180
Rent Relevator, finish the tutorial, then go into training and do all of Sol's missions. From there, pick a character that interests you, do their missions, then go online to get the shit kicked out of you by guys who've been playing since the dreamcast. Reason I say rent is because if you don't have the execution to do the combos, you'll have a real bad time.

kill la kill yourself is a fuckin' reference: the animu

Gainax/Trigger have a hard on for American culture. Pretty much every anime they done has at least 10+ references.

>>78018731
Japan is clearly Piccolo. They're a bit weird and like to be left alone and always slightly resent the US.

Germany had a pretty bad history and almost destroyed the world and our allies, but now they're the most stable country in Europe and while they don't like to admit they have a bad past, they're working to try and be a better place.

>>78024074
Yeah, it feels like easy modo.
It'd be like pointing out western influences in Hellsing.

>>78024108

could you tell us more

This is never not funny

an episode of Akibaranger (a show that was a lampoon of sentai) where the villain had changed history so super sentai was based off an american show called Powerful Rangers

I'm surprised by the sheer number of times he took outfits wholesale and put them in his manga

If I remember correctly, the story goes that there were two instances of this.
>First, the team that made Evangelion got SUPER fucking depressed during and after the production
>As a way to cheer themselves up, they ended up making FLCL while on drugs or some shit.

>Years later, TTGL was a huge sucess and everyone on the team was super happy
>They went on vacation, got totally wasted, and came up with the ideas for Panty and Stocking

>>78024005
Marooned is actually my second-favorite Floyd tune, after Brain Damage/Eclipse

They also have a weird obsession with Cowboys. Some Japanese tourists once approached my uncle working on his car because he was wearing a cowboy hat and boots.

They wanted to take a picture with him. They were 100% convinced they met a real cowboy.

>>78024245
>they ended up making FLCL while on drugs
that would explain a lot

>>78024314
oh, that kind. i thought about something more obscure

>>78023825
I'm about 60% sure it's a reference to Radiohead's Creep. Other than that, I have no idea, either.

>>78023750
The sad thing is,
I'm lonely enough....

How about Space Dandy?
It was pretty western and very good especially the dub
but was there any specific reference?

>Japan loves my favourite war movie

>>78024253
I always said that if I went to Japan, I would pack a complete cowboy getup, just because it's probably what they would expect from me.

>>78011420
What about I Dream of Genie?

Well I don't have the page but one of the first pages in boku no hero academia where it talks about all the new heros that emerged you can clearly see the silhouettes of Spider-Man, Superman, Wolverine, and others

Mick Foley found out about Spandam at one point and was asking if he needed to take legal action for use of his image till fans told him what was up.

What are the Anime equivalents of The Flintstones or I Love Lucy?

This one has a training montage with Rocky and Drunken Master scenes, and the Police Story song to boot.

Also, Detroit Metal City movie with fucking Gene Simmons in it.

>>78024975
uh...
Astro Boy?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astro_Boy#Anime_series
Generally considered to be the main reason Anime became a thing.

>>78025036
The plots do not seem similar at all.

>>78024975
Even though the series content is nothing alike, I think the closest thing to The Flintstones are Doraemon or Gundam. They are all kids (family) shows loved by multiple generations and as socially accepted as they get.

>>78025048
if you want SoL, then Sazae-san.

>>78025067
Flintstones wasn't made for kids though, it was for adults. The show was even originally sponsored by Winston Cigarettes.

>>78010860

U must be joking....

That Ronald is not western culture. He is a meme over there due to how eccentric the Japanese Ronald was in the commercials.

>>78018837

It's more of the animation staff liking cult movies that Americans like too ya know..

Imaishi fucking loves western stuff. He's indicated that he'd like to make a show for Adult Swim before.

>>78010860
I tried to watch this and it creeped me out

>>78024991
Pokemon also had a Rocky montage in the BW era.
There was also a Startrek Borg joke later on.

>>78025390
okay, to be fair, one punch man is over flowing with western hero parallels.
