Gintama as a comedic parody anime had a ton of these.

Some memorable ones include:
- The episode "Girls Like Vegeta, Guys like Piccolo" A discussion by the ladies at a party on Piccolo vs Vegeta

- Two special title sequences drew from Dragon Ball

- Tampering with time leads to a Makansappo

- A smoking ban sends off one character on a quest to defeat Freeza

- A case of baldness starts bringing up comparisons to Krillin

- A mishmash of Dragon Ball, Bleach and One Piece

- Gintoki does the Kamehameha when he thinks he's alone

There are a whole lot more.
"Don't take pleasure in destruction!" / "I will not let you destroy my world!"
A true hero goes beyond not the limits of power, but the limits that divide countries and people.
