The first few parts of the story appear to be a homage to Super Hero fiction (including Golden Bat, Prince of Gamma, and Superman) and other Sci-Fi themes.Dragon Ball is a homage to the classic Journey to the West, particularly the first arc, with Bulma in a gender-flipped Xuanzang role, Son Goku is Sun Wukong (in turn a homage to Hanuman from Ramayana), Oolong is Zhu Bajie, and Yamcha is Sha Wujing.Citramon, originally BomberNanimon, became an homage to Don Patch of Bobobo-Bobo-Bobo, complete with matching voice actor!

If a series is doing anything deliberately evocative of its own past, then it is an Internal Homage. But sometimes it's a weird or haunting reflection of the original series that is a native part of the 'reality' of the show in which it is found.Ī Pastiche is a very common type of homage, which involves trying to copy the style of a work or artist. Sometimes - especially when the Homage is blatant, or is part of a comedy series - it's All Just a Dream. A homage is an extended sequence, significantly more than a simple Shout-Out, but does not actually constitute a crossover even when some of the original stars recreate their roles.
