Just gonna pin this here; While I appreciate all the attention and feedback this video has garnered, it really irks me when someone says I "forgot to include this reference" because here's the thing: I'm just one guy that has yet to play a lot of other games or watch so much more anime, so if I didn't include anything you spotted, simply put it's because I never noticed on my own or most likely I never played or watch what the reference was refering to. remember, the video is titled Every single reference "I COULD FIND".
I love how Neptunia espically Neptune is self aware. And she loves to break the forth wall many times. This is such a cute series. One of my top favorite Anime and video game series. Will always be my favorite.
@@xonicallstar9951 If you want a good Anim and Video Game Series, I recommend the Blue Reflection Ray Anime and the Blue Reflection, Blue Reflection Tie Second Light and Blue Reflection Sun games. Please look em up. Those are so totally worth it.
"Journey of Dreams" is a reference to the Sega Game NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams. Also "Air Ride to dreamland" is specifically referencing the game Kirby Air Ride.
They wouldn't be CPU Candidates if they were just references to the Ice Climbers All CPUs are based on Consoles while Humans are either Makers as in the Companies that made the games (Compa and IF are these types referencing Compile Heart and Idea Factory International) or are Referenced through silly similar sounding names (Examples of similar name references Maryo = Mario And funny enough Luigi is also referenced as "Player 2" he's just called Player two as the running gag in the Mario & Luigi RPGs is that No one knows Luigi's name) Rom and Ram = the DUEL Screen System or DS for short, they even have a Split DS logo on their hats Nepgear = Game Gear Uni = PSP and also the PSVITA Noire = Playstation home consoles most notably PS3 (Original and the Ultra Dimension counterpart) and PS4 with her next form in VII being PS5 Vert = Literally EVERY Xbox console, that's why she's Busty it's a play on how Bulky Xboxes are Blanc = the Flattest console by Nintendo the Wii, I guess technically she's also the Switch now (Funny, she had two modes already Dandere calm to being full of Rage) Neptune herself = Is supposed to be based on a supposedly cancelled console the Sega Neptune but it's also possible that the "Neptune" console is just fictional I continued this trend in the series by making my own Original character for the series to be based on the Stadia with HIM being a new type of CPU that is actually not that popular due to how the real life Stadia has been in the real world
Like how Monster Hunter has had releases on multiple consoles with releases even on Playstation systems The last of us and Uncharted are also Playstation/Lastation titles
I like that most of the references to games are made by the appropriate CPUs or candidates Metal Gear Solid and Crash for playstation, all the sega with nep etc. I wonder if the english VAs are gamers at all.
Another fun one was the character Setag. She has the Windows logo in her hair, and Setag backwards is Gates as in Bill Gates. Awesome video dude, I missed a ton of them
Also, her verbal tic is "Biru", as in the first name of Bill Gates, while its dub equivalent is "Bing", as in "the MySpace of search engines" (the TASM Honest Trailer's words, not mine).
I rewatched this show more times than I would like to admit when I was younger but never with the dub and wow I missed out. Whoever was in charge knew their stuff.
I really like this anime🤣🤣Mainly cause my young millennial arse doesn't get many of the older game/media references but it is always fun to look them up!
The best thing about this series besides the reference with a lot of games is seeing how cute the girls do it. Even seeing Neptune smiling happily and Uni genuinely smiling brings a smile to my face as they are adorable. Even Nepgear as well.
DrewTheRedPoochyena It’s when Neptune jokes about Lastation’s security being the best in the world, referencing the line “You utter fool! German science is the best in the world!” Just Incase you do an updated version sometime.
Ok I am surprised that you didn't noticed the Guilty Gear reference though from looking at the past comments, you haven't really played that series so that's understandable though hell, if there was a reference to the BlazBlue series, I would've recognized it right away.
well the dogoos are staple enemies that have been in the series since day one in the video game series, this anime isn't their first introduction so I felt there was no need to mention that. But hey, what the hell do I know, right? Everyone chipping in on their comments about how "I forgot this" or "How the hell did you not catch this" makes me realize maybe i'm not qualified for these kinds of videos anyways.
@@DrewTheRedPoochyena Sorry, when you put it like that I can see why you didn't include it. I wasn't trying to make you feel bad or anything I just noticed it and was wondering why. I think some of the other comments are the same, so don't let that discourage you from making whatever video you want.
@@christianlopez707 i'm sorry too. it's just I only wanted to make a quick video like this, I didn't think it would garner so much reception like this. thank you for understanding too
yeah, I admit some of these are kind of a stretch. When I was editing this video, I felt like I needed to pad out the watch time so it doesn't seem too short or something. I would redo this video now if I had the option to do so.
"LASTATION'S SECURITY IS THE GREATEST IN THE WORLD" is a jojo reference, in part 2 of jojo Stroheim would tell "GERMAN SCIENCE IS THE GREATEST IN THE WORLD"
1:43 you forgot that scene where Neptune saying the turtle want her peaches is also a reference about Princess Peach too. 4:50 I wish you had put the losing ring sound for this one.
You forgot the reference where Neptune is sitting there playing a video game called Mugen Souls. It's a Cameo reference to the Mugen Souls Nis America game.
Technically she can't be in Smash cause Neptunia is primarily a Playstation series With very few releases actually being on Nintendo Console Specifically only has Switch titles Neptunia Nintendo titles: Super Neptunia RPG, Neptunia x Senran Kagura (Technically doesn't count as it's a Crossover and doesn't take place in Gamindustri), Sisters vs Sisters and the up coming Neptunia Game Maker Revolution
You forgot the Bill Gates reference (Setag) from Episode 6, the Locoroco reference from Episode 4/5, the “Welcome to the Next Level” from the first episode, the Sonic Adventure 2 reference from the same episode and the AC New Leaf reference from the Beach episode (can’t remember which one it is) XD
