DC in other manga/anime

[NotSoFluent]

I'm seeing Shampoo too.

Oh hey, I didn't notice Shampoo in the background there.  Damn, I miss reading that series.  NI-HAO, RANMA~

[miakakiri]

I'm seeing Shampoo too.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that's Lum from Urusai Yatsura ("Those Obnoxious Aliens", also by Rumiko Takahashi. It's a bit older than Ranma, and not nearly as well-known.)
However....I do think I see Kasumi Tendou farther down the hall...

I'm pretty sure Black Cat had an obvious reference to Conan but I can't find any images of it. =(

[CoolKid3]

Conan showed up in an episode of Yakitate Japan. Said that if this was his show, the ratings would be higher.

This is the only familiar one...

Really? I stopped watching Black Cat and other random trial anime after I've been hooked to Western TV Series... Could you tell me what Black Cat episode it is?

I read the (much better) manga so I dunno!

Lum has green hair in anime.

And Shampoo's hair is purple in the anime....
There's some tiger-stripe-looking things on her legs, which is why I thought it was Lum...

[takiko]

Yeah, the stripes. But Lum's stripes are yellow and black.

Shampoo and Lum:

Shampoo's hair color resembles the color of the one in the picture.

Although I have no pictures to add, I would say: DC references cannot be avoided if:

• It's after mid-1990s;
• It's a comedy;
• It's Shogakukan, esp from Shounen Sunday, and
• If detectives are involved.

Conan as the symbol of tantei would exist as he is the least quirky of the more well-known detectives in manga.

[tanteiconan1603]

Yeah..It just proved that CONAN is really a famous and a great anime, right??

I'm reading the manga of Hayate, the combat butler too and I see many Statues of Conan there.
And the protagonist mentions many things about Conan including Kid and Lupin..

[Charyu974]

In Full Metal Panic OVA,
There is a parody of "Future Boy Conan"- Miyazaki and "Detective Conan" who is call "Conyan, The Future Detective Boy"  

In this parody, we can see a boy who is dress like Conan.  ;D

[takiko]

Conyan...

Lol. 

[Schillok]

There was also a Conan in "Yakitate!! Japan". Since the manga is pretty weird his appearence was strange as well... 

Spoiler:

Seriously... better don't try to understand it. Not with logic. 

[caribou]

LOL! i love this thread so much i'm so happy that another anime made fun of the whole Kogoro-sleeping-dart-and-speaking-through-bowtie routine, it's so funny!!

From Sonic.  xD
