"That tickles!"

Akira is a popular Japanese animated movie based on the manga of the same name. In addition, Stinkoman's voice is similar to Cam Clarke's dub of Kaneda.


Appearances

  • Email japanese cartoon — The line, "No way, you're just a kid, maybe when you grow older" is a reference to a scene where Kaneda refuses to let Tetsuo ride his motorbike because he's "just a kid".
  • 3 Times Halloween Funjob — Giving Stinkoman the jar labelled "Akira" will make his arm explode into a grotesque organic tendril.
  • Under Construction — Stinkoman saying "WHAAAAAAAT are you doing?" references the Pioneer dub of Akira, where the character Yamagata asks Tetsuo in a similar manner: "WHAAAAAAAT the hell are you talking about?"
  • Sketchbook 2005 — One of the sketches shows Stinkoman as Tetsuo.
  • Twenty THANXty Six — The color scheme and decals (the Citizen logo and U.S. Air Force roundel) on Stinkoman's tractor resemble those on Kaneda's motorcycle.
