Not really a shmup parody, more a funny coincidence: In Sakigake!! Otokojuku, there's a character named Raiden who uses a fighting style called Peaceful Death Style/Daioujou-ryuu. He even has the 大往生 characters on his forehead. But the manga predates both games, I just thought it was pretty funny.

Not sure, but that's an SG-1000 controller hanging off the side.

Well there's no lives counter, so maybe it's like Deathsmiles with its row of hearts/half-hearts.

If that's the case, I'm guessing it's a SC-3000, which is a computer based off the SG-1000.

Ship's totally from metal black but the strange scrolling bg on the lower side of the screen has me say no.

It's more gleylancer inspired IMO, if we have to go there, the HUD's zero wing inspired.

The big letters on that DOJ look-alike game seem to say 大昇天 (Great Ascension to Heaven), I think? Not bad :lol:
