Explanation[edit | edit source]

It is difficult to discern whether the "Cartoon Network semi-references" bit in the author's note is accurate; both of the possible interpretations are to Television series, and thus would be considered a television reference either way. The Cartoon Network bit would be considered accurate if "Jonny Suavo" were interpreted as a reference to Johnny Bravo, a Cartoon Network original series; however, another possible interpretation of "Johnny Suavo" is that of the Pinky Suavo persona Pinky once took up in Pinky and the Brain--which was not a Cartoon Network series (and, as far as airings in its native United States go, only ever aired on that network once as a marathon in 1997).

The perfect combination: fourth wall jokes, anime nosebleeds, and Cartoon Network semi-references!
