○ Horiuchi-san from Naniwa Animation
Naniwa → Osaka → Kyoto
Possibly Kyoto Animation's Horiguchi Yukiko

AkaOni → AoOni → Aoni
Probably Aoni Production

Episode 1
○ The radio program that Aoi is listening to
From the LCD: AM 1134KHz 23：54
Based on the frequency, time, and focus on anime, it might be the Saturday radio show "ComChat Countdown", but because it's about to end soon, it may be the program before that "AniSupa!"

○ Nakaharu Mei = Nakahara Mai
Also has a role as Okitsu (general manager)

○ Itou Suzuka = Itou Shizuka
Also has a role as Doumoto (inbetween check)

○ Kayana Mui = Kanayo Ai
Also has a role as Ogasawara (chara design/general animation supervisor)

○ G.I. Staff
Likely a portmanteau of Production I.G. and J.C. Staff

○ "Fight" and "G Colle"
Fight = Fate (Fate/stay night [UBW])
G Colle = G Reconguista

○ Posters in the Musashino Animation Office
Hoshigari Takoda = Kure Kure Takora
Machzedon = Hazedon
BUMIN = Moomin
Amazon~~Beko = Jungle Kuroboe
~~ki Patch = Minashigo Hutch (The Adventures of Hutch the Honeybee)
Natsugusa Fuyu Mushi no Uta = Tentoumushi no Uta
These are all fairly old titles so please look them up yourself

○ A Certain Temple's Devoted Monk (Toaru Otera no Sokushinbutsu)
Likely a reference to A Certain Magical Index (Toaru Majutsu no Index)
Connection: Kawase Kouhei produced both these shows

○ Lanfis / Bukeroad
Lantis / Bushiroad

○ Varner Brothers
Warner Brothers
Sponsor of Shirobako; also handles JoJo and WIXOSS, etc.
Distributor of the BD/DVDs, so they are also the ones responsible for distribution of Exodus!

○ The radio program that Segawa is listening to
From the LCD: AM 1548khz 12：10
However this frequency does not exist. Possibly refers to 954kHZ, TBS Radio's "Oosawa Yuuri's Yuu Yuu Wide".

Episode 2

○ "I Think my Harem is Slowly Falling Apart but I Might just be Imagining it (Beta)"
Not a reference to anything in particular, but how titles have been getting ridiculously long. E.g.:
-Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai! (2010)
-Onii-chan no Koto nanka Zenzen Suki ja nain Dakara ne!! (2011)
-Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai (2011)
-Onii-chan dakedo Ai sae areba Kankei nai yo ne! (2012)
-Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba sugiru (2013)
-Yahari Ore no Seishun LoveCome wa Machigatteiru (2013)
-Yuusha ni narenakatta Ore wa shibushibu Shuushoku wo Ketsui shimashita (2013)
-Ore no Nounai Sentakushi ga, Gakuen LoveCome wo Zenryoku Jamashiteiru (2013)
-Saikin, Imouto no Yousu ga chotto Okashiin daga (2014)
Also, because these works are mostly harem-like settings, there are a lot of roles for female VAs. Hence, it's a good way for young and new voice actresses to gain popularity and success.

○ Puru9 (PuruKyuu)
Net slang that was created when the animation of episode 9 of PurunPurun Heaven turned out to be an absolute disaster. Probably not referring to one specific instance, but there are cases of this happening:
-Lost Universe (1998) episode 4: "Yashigani" (coconut crab)
-Yoake Mae Yori Ruri Iro na (2006) episode 3: "Cabbage" [we all should know this one]

○ Posters in the Musashino Animation Office part 2
Otoko Do-aho Kokuritsu Kyougijou = Otoko Do-aho Koushien
Hana no Ko BunBun = Hana no Ko LunLun
Oshaberi no Kantai = Chinmoku no Kantai
Onao-san! = Hitoyasumi-san
~~Densetsu = ???
Takaradori (宝鳥) = Takarajima (宝島)
Sugi no Ki Pock = Kashi no Ki Mokku (Pinocchio TV Anime)

○ Real life counterparts of the staff(1)
Kinoshita Seiichi = Mizushima Seiji
Marukawa Masahito = Maruyama Masaru
Inanami Yoshikazu = Iwanami Yoshikazu
Nakata Eri = Tanaka Rie(2)
Note 1: Not all the staff's personalities are based off the real persons
Note 2: The Tanaka Rie who does sound design is not the Tanaka Rie voice actress; they just share the exact same name.
