With Eternum there's somewhat less of that (with the media references being more visual easter eggs rather than something that the characters talk about), but I feel like that's a given considering that the story canonically takes place more than a decade after OIAL, so most of the media we're consuming now are likely dated in the VN's present time...
Hold on... Hold on... Time out...
Nova JUST put up that she's watching One Piece.
One Piece JUST started its final arc and there's some tragedy there that I won't go into. One Piece isn't finishing in a decade, it's finishing in half that or a bit more with how much of a workaholic it is.
What I'm gonna need from Nova is something said that she's just decided to pick it UP and she's watching reruns from the beginning from her favorite pirate sites because so help me...
If Cari gives me [spoilers] on One Piece...
If he LEAVES. ME. HANGING. ON. THIS...!
