Behind the scenes

The achievement Sometimes pokes fun at the common misconception that ninjas always land on their feet when jumping from any height.

The achievement This is Japan, Actually alludes to the line "This is Sparta!" said by King Leonidas I in the 2006 movie 300 before kicking a Persian messenger down a well. It eventually became popular online up to the point where it became an internet meme.

The achievement Everybody Benefits! and its description may allude to the trouble-prone Kephallonian merchant Markos from the 2018 video game Assassin's Creed: Odyssey. Those two words are his catchphrase, and upon his meeting the game's protagonist, the Eagle-Bearer, when they washed ashore as an unconscious child, he gives them a piece of bread as if he were feeding a wild animal. In later years, he regularly took to seeing them as a body to perform errands and fetch-quests, much like how some pet owners view their animal.

The achievement Kofun Raider is a spoof on the Tomb Raider franchise.
