Thanks for the article Gabbo! This line of speculation is one of the most fun parts of this show for me - it's really fun to picture an alternate Re:CREATORS with their real-world fictional counterparts xD
I agree with the vast majority of these, Alicetaria specifically. I think other influences that came to mind to me for her were Claymore and Attack on Titan, but as an extent of the apocalyptic aspect Berserk and Fate/Stay Night. I have to mention Danganronpa for Magane Chikujoin though, because in the re-cap episode Meteora tells us her story is set in "Korougamine Academy" where an incident occurred and an entire class was murdererd. I don't think there's a more specific nod in the entire show xD Not to mention the way she operates is almost a 1:1 Junko Enoshima in Danganronpa 3 As an easter egg, the second half of the song 2109-a8Ru件 (Track 8) on the Re:CREATORS soundtrack, Hiroyuki Sawano samples the acoustic from the Danganronpa theme for the backing, unless I'm crazy. I think another direct aspect of influence is for Hikayu Hoshimiya, and it's Ui Nakatsugawa from the visual novel A Bridge To The Starry Sky. The 'Starry Sky' series is actually kind of well-known overall, and it seems like something that Rei Hiroe would probably have been into... just a hunch xD In the episode interviews that Sunday Webry had with the staff, Rei Hiroe does mention Shinji Ikari as one influence for Rui Kanoya, just thought I should add that since it's the rare name that they actually mention. https://www.sunday-webry.com/events/re_creators_naked/interview11/ I'm eagerly awaiting the finale - the build-up episodes are fine, and the show sure is thirsty, but I want to see the resolution! (please stick the landing xD) |

Eh, Shinji in the English dub is voiced by a male voice actor. (Spike Spencer) |

Meteora has kept kind of given me a feeling of the look of Robin from Fire Emblem.
Plus her analytical mind also makes me think of Robin's tactician personality. |

Episode 16 showed Vogelchevalier, so that's one wish granted. And the big climax is underway, but there's a hint that Altair knows there's a trap set for her. Or maybe she's just paranoid/extra untrusting. Either way, there may be some twists and turns in this series yet. I like it, though my roommate dropped the series after a half dozen episodes. His loss.

+1 to that, I would read the heck out of Magane's source material if it was real. |

To me, Selesia's appearance distinctly reminds me of Shion from Xenosaga
Their outfits even have similar elements of dark blue and tan.[img][/img] |

These "series within a series" could help boost the "Re:Creators" popularity if they get actual manga or light novel adaptations.

So, this has bothered me for the past three episodes since I started reading reviews. I love this article but I do need to point out something I haven't seen mentioned anywhere at all. People assume that Meteora is a tutorial character. But the show itself directly implies otherwise early on. I just rewatched the first 5 minutes of episode 2. During which Sota recognizes Meteora based on her name. Stating

She's neither a creation nor a creator, but Kikuchihara Aki reminds me A LOT of police chief Kirihara Misaki from Darker than BLACK - her name, physical appearance, clothing, occupation, everything.

As a further Fate/Zero connection, Kikuchihara shares a voice actress with Fate/Zero's "serious, dark-haired, dark-outfitted woman" Hisau Maiya. But those two characters aren't really similar beyond that.
