I got a kick out of the "Risa: Planet of Pleasure" brochure (bottom-right corner) when I first got my copy of this artbook. The Star Trek / Dirty Pair cross-references continue! For those who don't know, Risa is the #1 shore leave spot in the Star Trek universe.
It all got started when Dokite Tsukasa, the character designer and animation director for Dirty Pair TV series, who was a big fan of the original Star Trek, hid a number of references to it in Dirty Pair. Later, during the production of The Next Generation, technical designer Rick Sternbach and others were big anime fans and hid many references of their own to Dirty Pair and other anime.
