Ultra Series

 * Akane is seen playing with figures of Robot Chief and Mountain Gulliver No. 5 just after Yuta wakes up.
 * The Uchusen magazine from episode 6 reappears.
 * Akane mentions the names of Yadokarin, Majaba, Chaos Jirak, Gobnu Ogma and Gomora Reionics Burst, when quizzed by Sho.
 * Her mentioning of Chaos Jirak is rather notable, since the episode that it appears in has a psychologically damaged girl named Akane, who was being manipulated by a more terrifying force under the false pretense of making her dreams come true via using a monster.
 * Sho wanted to get an Ultra Mech Selection II toy set, which was an actual toy set containing several attack team vehicles across multiple series.
 * The Sevendarake store is, in addition to being a parody of the Mandarake toy store, a reference Ultraseven, who was the next Ultra to defend Earth after Ultraman. It should be noted that Ultraman's name is frequently shortened to "Man (マン)" when addressing him among his peers, especially in the Showa Era shows. The logo of the shop also has Ultraseven's Eye Slugger on it.
 * In the shop were merchandise and/or statues of Terranoid, Kanegon and other boxed Ultra Series merchandise, which can be determined by the signature font and red-and-white color scheme on the packaging.
 * Sho buys a Space Mammy toy, a UGM spaceship from Ultraman 80. He also wanted to buy a GOKAZOKU Hexa Wing, from the Ultraman Nice infomercials, buth they were not available. Sho also got a MAT Arrow-1 and a figure of Bakugon.
 * Akane has some Ultra Series shows at home, which are: Ultraman: The Adventure Begins (she calls it Ultra Force), Ultraman Boy's Ultra Coliseum, Ultraman Nice and Ultra Q in technicolor.
 * The scene where the screen pans upwards to Gridman is done very similarly to a scene in the second opening of Ultraman Nexus.

Other Tsuburaya Works

 * Merchandise of Jumborg 9 and Mighty from Mighty Jack can be seen on display at the Sevendarake shop.
 * Sho buys a figure of Baranda V, a monster from Fireman.
