Line 31:
*[[Battler Ushiromiya]] is partially based off of [[Wikipedia:Phoenix Wright (character)|Phoenix Wright]] from the [[Wikipedia:Ace Attorney|Ace Attorney]] franchise, most clearly seen in Battler's Objection sprite.<ref>{{cite web|title = Ryukishi07 at the French con Epitanime: 27th of May|url = http://archive.is/gDjnB#selection-191.315-191.450}}</ref>
*[[Ange Ushiromiya]]'s false name "Gretel" is likely a reference to the fairy tale [[Wikipedia:Hansel and Gretel|Hansel and Gretel]], which Battler jokingly mentions.
*[[Sakutarou]] was originally to be named "Sakura" after the protagonist of ''[[Wikipedia:Card Captor Sakura|Card Captor Sakura]]'', however Maria changed it to sound more masculine.
**This is actually an anachronism as ''Card Captor Sakura'' debuted in 1996, ten years after ''Umineko no Naku Koro ni'' takes place.
*The 72 Pillars of Hell mentioned in ''Umineko no Naku Koro ni'' is likely a reference to the [[Wikipedia:List of demons in the Ars Goetia|72 demons]] in the [[Wikipedia:Lesser Key of Solomon|Lesser Key of Solomon]]. Several demons within ''Umineko no Naku Koro ni'' are based off of these 72 demons.
**[[Ronove]] is based off of [[Wikipedia:Ronove|Marquis Ronove]], the 27th demon.
