ITT:Western movies/shows references in anime and manga
>>144065413
that part in Galaxy Angel that parodies.
Run Lola Run!
That entire Bebop episode that was a homage to Alien
The two together are Dipper and Mabel from Gravity Falls.
The other one is Connie from Steven Universe.
You'd have a longer thread if you included western literature references.
>Literally every fucking fantasy setting with orcs/wizards/knights/etc
Fucking unoriginal Japs.
>>144066006
Subtle
>>144066006
Huh, I totally missed that
anime in western shows
>>144066006
So basically, only Trigger/Gainax?
>>144066633
Imaishi is Japan's biggest westaboo
>>144065878
I believe Rebecca Sugar and Ian are also in that. (Creator of Steven Universe and her boyfriend.)
Terminator
>>144066006
Holy shit, how did I miss this?
>>144066793
More Terminator
>>144066937
GOOD IROHASU!
>>144066624
This shit is basically cringeworthy all the time, when it's all mainstream anime like Pokemon and Ghibli films
>>144065413
mad max in its entirety in any anime with sand
>>144065413
How about a western Book/Play/Movie in anime?
>>144066006
>>144066624
Glad I stopped watching it.
SZS had a few
>>144066006
Kill la Kill and Panty & Stocking have a SHIT ton of western cameos/references.
>>144066980
Trunks comes from the future
And an evil android wants to kill him and his mother
Hmmm
>>144066624
>bleach
>naruto
>once piece
>pokemon
>SnK
Does it get any more casual?
>>144065805
Most stuff in Bebop is an homage to Western movies and shit.
>>144066147
DOSTOV
>>144067292
to be fair japs have tarantino and south park references so it kinda evens out, also to most people anime is still fucking sailormoon or whatever
>>144067292
They are aiming for what most people will know of course it is casual taste. If the audience doesn't get the joke and needs it explained the joke has failed.
>>144065413
Because Izumi Kitta is Rainbow Dash's Jap VA
>>144066793
There are tons of Terminator parodies in anime.
>>144066937
Props to anyone who can tell me what this is from.
I was still a dirty pleb who took vlcsnaps back then.
>A Dog of Flanders and The Metamorphosis - Dokuro-Chan
>Hyperion and Time Enough for Love by Haruhi
>>144067041
Hokuto no Ken is essentially kung-fu Mad Max.
>>144066937
Sabagebu had a lot of obvious ones, like Ben helping Momoka out.
>>144067292
what did you expect retard
Cos I guess Stan wasn't content with showing up in every Marvel movie ever
>>144067581
According to google it's
>Butt Attack Punisher Girl Gotaman
>>144067742
I miss all the old edits of this image.
The taxi driver homage in ghost in the shell
>>144067742
Well, he did write Heroman, so...
>>144067080
Travolta, Jackson, Downy Jr. Who are the other two? Schwarzenegger and?
>>144067799
ConRevo reference in my Simpsons? Groening confirmed for bros.
>>144067779
Cheater.
>>144067073
Well there's a Count of Monte Cristo anime
>>144067842
Looks like it might be Harrison Ford.
>>144067799
Sailor Moon and Pokemon are pretty out of place with the other three.
>>144067799

>>144067627
This is by far the most bizarre one.
>>144067925
This one is from Shojo Cosset, aka le Miserables the anime.
>>144067073
>>144067080
Is that Bladerunner?
Men in Black in this.
>>144066937
>Mad Max
>Western
Australia is like due south of Japan. They are in the same time zone.
>>144067960
Seriously. Was some random animator in charge of background character designs a fan or his or something?
>>144068044
The eastern seaboard at least, Australia is much larger than Japan.
>>144068055
Two cameos in that one.
but probably...
>>144068041
lemon best girl
>>144068044
The term "western" has nothing to do with geographic location in this context.
>>144067955
I was expecting a whole bunch of people to think that the yellow jumpsuit was a Kill Bill reference, but quite a few people actually knew where it was from.
Not as bad as everything thinking a drill in anime is a Gurren Lagann reference.
>>144066682
>Not Kojima
Mulder and Scully sent to investigate aliens.
>>144067039
Some of it's worse than others.
The Utena references in Steven Universe and the galaxy angel reference in Archer (Milfeulle literally being Krieger's waifu) are among the not as bad ones.
>>144068165
Damn
>>144068158
Kojima is a very well disguised weaboo. He loves burger shit far too much to truly be an eleven.
>>144068158
>Not Suda51
>>144066682
Hardly.
His works reference more jobscure apanese media than it does mainstream western media.
Is Gachimuchi considered western?
>>144068283
No.
>>144067313
Yamadas first time or some shit also references this shitty author and his books for like a sentence
>>144068044
Are you legitimately retarded? Do you not know what Western means?
>>144067627
It's weird seeing youtubers in my korean cartoons
>>144067292
They did a Ghibli episode as well
>>144067955
I came here just to post this. I forgot how much I loved this OP and this anime in general.
>>144068333
/lit/ please
Here's Moby Dick
>>144066793
>>144067460
Even the T-1000
Not movie, but still western. Pandora had few western references, toned down in anime.
>>144068341
America is the only West.
Well, there Black Lagoon with Rosarita chasing the car like T-1000.
>>144068533

Yoh Yoshinari is a MLP fan.
http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2013/11/22/little-witch-academia-creator-draws-my-little-pony
>>144068784
He also likes many CN cartoons
>>144068813
Going through his pivix, he seems to be a big fan of Western animation.
I wonder if he's seen Rick and Morty yet.
1.21 Jiggawatts!
Welcome to Shawshank.
>>144068784
wtf I hate trigger now!
There's also an episode where the villains straight up make a Terminator, it looks just like Arnold and everything
>>144068055
I wonder if he knows that we noticed? He must speak English to be a fan, but is he active on the English-speaking net? This is one of those tragic mysteries that will almost certainly never be solved.
Didnt expect Little Pet Shop of Horrors tbqh
Joshiraku a best
>>144068881
What would we do without TL notes?
They had the MC and love interest watch the movie Twins in Kekkai Sensen.
It was neat because it was a nice scene and it also kind of fit the narrative.
Wish I could find an actual screenshot of anime Danny Devito but this will have to do.
>>144068948
>tfw ppf girls are kill and professor utonium too
>>144069038
Funny that we'll see ragi go through this again in Prison School s2
>>144069072
That's gotta be Pani Poni Dash. That show's subs have so many Goddamn annotations.
>>144069078
>anime Danny Devito
I must see this.
>>144066624
This is still one of my favourites.
>>144069283
HA! Almost missed it.
>>144069283
Oh wow
>>144069113
Don't worry, they have a shitty meme reboot that's getting another season.
>>144067581
>>144067920
Don't forget darth sumo.
>>144067627
Hotshotgg is in a later episode too.
>>144069283
Wow, took me a second
>>144069390
Wait, AGAIN?
How will they kill something that is already dead now?
Seto no hanayome had some good western references.
>>144069390
Pretty sure that's what he was talking about.
>>144068079
>>144068979
AVGN's videos are actually fairly popular, much like a more crass Gamecenter CX.
>>144069477
I want to marry Arino kacho.
Seto no Hanayome has several Hokuto no Ken and JoJo references.
Like pic related when MC was sharing a class between a Raoh/Souther Hybrid.
I think this is the only major Simpsons-reference I've seen in any anime.
>>144069582
noucome had a weird family guy reference, IIRC.
>>144069283
What we doin today Brain?!
>>144069283
I don't get it
>>144069728
The symbol from lilith's mask from NGE is in the top centre of the tablet thing behind them
>>144069283
Gendo and Fujutsuki edit when?
>>144069283
I'm stupid and I don't get it
>>144069801
>>144068948
reminds me of squib more, the eye mask doesn't seem as PPG
>>144069801
>>144069836
>>144069283
>NGE aired in 1995
>Pinky and the Brain aired in 1995
Guess some korean animator really liked drawing Lillith's mask and snuck it in on other projects
A classic. Don't know why they made him black in the movie though. Seems like they sucked all of it from Black and left him looking Native American.
>>144069881
It's obviously an inkling in that style, along with the host.
>>144069283
>>144069324
>>144069348
>>144069423
>>144069677
>>144069728
>>144069793
>>144069836
It's fake, there isn't anything there at all in the real version
>>144067460
I love Becky. Also
In this episode, everyone got hooked on Harry Potter, but King Dedede hated long books with no pictures, so he bought JK Rowling to read it to him.
>the weeb cringe is realTrigger Warning: rule #15
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BW2GJtVojU
>>144069472It's not a western reference, but I never see anyone comment about how Uzi's cosplay is Jill Valentine
>>144070062
http://wiki.evageeks.org/Tributes_to_Neon_Genesis_Evangelion_in_other_Media#Pinky_and_the_Brain
>>144065413
How about in reverse?
>>144070121
Evageeks have a lot of incorrect info, I have the entirety of Pinky and the brain and other old cartoons downloaded, and lilith's mask isn't there
>>144070165
Which episode is it supposedly from?
>>144070121
Evageeks says Rei is a clone of yui, they're not always right dude
in Potemayo there's a reference to Jason Voorhees
>>144070177
episode 19
>>144070120
I didn't see it airing, but I thought it would have been talked to death.
>>144070114
Thanks asshole, now youtube is going to recommend mlp bullshit forever.
And original from Fahrenheit
Nate Grey/X-Man donning a familiar suit of armor.
>>144070286
well space dandy just straight up had john travolta in it
"Watch what you say, or I'll sue you. Defamation of Character. Now why don't you shut your mouth and find some smelly fish to eat, you Dirty Cat Bastard."
Although, I feel like Space Dandy is almost cheating
>>144070286
Where's the reference from?
>>144070409
my guess is The Thing
Look closely...
>>144068651
Fuck
I wrote japanese media first and then realized I wanted to specify "obscure".
>>144070491
Hi Finn
is this porn?
Or is it just ecchi?
Do they fuck?
>>144070491
oh it's adventure time man. took me a moment.
>>144067073
Zetsuen no Tempest references Shakespeare heavily, and Code Geass is a mishmash of references to literature.
>>144070568
ecchi, endless blue balling
>>144070568
oh come on
>>144070568
It's TLR, they never fuck.
>>144070507
I'm surprised no one mentioned JoJo earlier.
>>144070347
Hulk did it too.
>>144070639
It was the same issue, apparently the artist was a huge fan of JoJo.
Of course the line between "homage" and "plagiarism" can be a bit hazy sometimes.
>>144070507
>>144070620
Really curious how they're gonna handle this in the American localisation.
Or are simple shout-outs allowed?
>>144068784
And /a/ claimed it was a negative reference that implies MLP is trash.
>>144070733
>Where's the burger menu!?
there's certainly a path for it
>>144070694
Is this for real ? Holy shit!
>>144065413
Wtf? South Park made a Furi Kuri reference? Fucking weebs.
>>144070746
Speaking of anime and MLP
John Everett Millais, the painting "Ophelia"
>>144070871
Holy shit. Is KinMoza deep?
>>144070694
So what's what that enemy stand part is from
Kelly's Heroes
>>144070816
It's the other way around
>you will never have Clark Kent and Diana as your parents
>>144068507
But its east of Japan
>>144070942
There are no shallow works of art, only shallow readings.
>>144071070
A-anything you say.
>>144071095
Misquote? Anyways, it's Bakuon characters watching Mad Max. Half a chapter was about Mad Max 1, essentially.
>>144070694
>>144071194
>he doesn't even recognise a Mad Max quote when he sees one.
>>144071222
I don't bother remembering quotes from people who have to give up their hats

>>144071453
To be fair I feel like most underage wouldn't recognize him in the west either
>>144071698
>I can die a happy man now.
Please do.
>>144070286
Great Teacher Onizuka had that one too in that summer camp episode which was almost a 1:1 copy.
>>144071758
I don't know about that. Jason is pretty iconic.
What I get from this thread is mangakas love Mad Max
>>144069414
The guy from league of legends?
>>144068044
If you think Australia isn't culturally a western country, you are rlly dumb desu
>>144071911
Philippine Comic Kino coming through.
>>144071972
well bakuon had an entire issue about it.
And fist of the north star is pretty much mad max + martial arts.
>>144072166
Falco looks just like Ivan Drago
>>144072166
Ken = Mel Gibson + Bruce Lee. And later Sylvester Stallone.
there needs to be a berserk compilation, there are way too many for it
>>144072244
Forgot image
>>144068044
>he doesn't know what a Western country is
look at this fool. Point at him and laugh.
I don't have a screenshot, but the Kelly's Heroes scene from Girls und Panzer
>>144068424
more like T-H0H0H0
>>144072082
>>144072549
you are reaching way too far
>>144071911
>he doesn't recognize Lord Humungus
Watch out, you're gonna get Gayboy Berserkers and Smegma Crazies sent over to your house
>>144072593
Why haven't we seen any Fury Road references in Anime yet? I'm legitimately surprised we haven't had any giant flamethrowing guitar wagons appear in any anime anywhere.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpqFr-9Sths
tons of references in the ost, not to mention the whole terminator thing
>>144072682
It's only a matter of time
>>144065413
This is clearly a Ron Paul Happening meme referrence
One piece of BGM in Bakuon was a sound-alike for the X-Files Theme
HeroAca is full of Star Wars references in regards to names of places
anime in western shows
>>144065413
Isn't one of the South Park Guys married to a Jap?
>>144072903
Spaceballs?
>>144073210
is she a cutie-ito?
>>144073210
Trey Parker was married to a woman called Emma Sugiyama, but google images reveals she's a dirty halfbreed (presumably half Brazilian).
>>144068813
>He also likes many CN cartoons
Wait for the Little Witch Academia TV series where he invites those creators over to be guest episode directors and animators
>>144073077
HeroAca is bursting at the seams with references to Western comics because Hori is a nerd
>>144071112
I'll take Swords for $700, Trebek.
>>144073077
>>144073300
Do we have a list of the really big westaboos in the anime industry? We listed a fair number but are there more?
>>144073284
Yoshinari doesn't give a shit about who's animating as long as it turns out as good as he wants it to be. There's zero chance he's going to juggle with artists over his precious series, that'll only make the work even more of a clusterfuck for him and everyone involved.

>>144073336
Akira Hiramoto, the writer of Prison School/Me and the Devil Blues is a Westaboo, given Me and the Devil Blues is a massive love letter to the Blues and American Culture.
>>144066006
I definitely recall Ryuko saying "You know for a second there, I kinda did" at one point, but I can't find any proof of this anywhere. Does anyone else remember this or am I just retarded?
>>144070272
Always thought it was weird how they made the petrol blue and how the lady had a 30 second tumble into the books
>>144068165
Just watched it yesterday and giggled when they walked in to investigate extraterrestrials.
