It seems several scenes in dissolute otaku anime Welcome to the NHK in fact harbour subtely placed tributes to Strike Witches (which of course at that time was still restricted to light novels).
The cameos take the form of by now iconic witchy cover illustrations adorning backgrounds as posters.
You will not be surprised to heat that this belated but topical finding is brought to us by 2ch; there it is said that there were some fans of Strike Witches character designer Fumikane Shimada working on the backgrounds… You can see some of his works on the Channel.

Speaking of Welcome to the NHK, it's about time they figured out the licensing crap and released Volume 6 of the DVD collection. I had to stop after 5 because of ADV's jackassery, and I'm still pretty pissed about it. I like that show!
Never put two-and-two together with the Strike Witches references, though. Easter eggs like that are cool.
I had utterly forgotten about this, so much so that I'm not sure I even knew aboutit in the first place, wow.
Wait, wasn't Welcome To The NHK (one of my fav. animes/manga/novels) released WAY before Strike Witches? Is that suppose to be art before the anime (SW) came out?
The light novel..
NHK only finished its TV run about 2 months before the Strike Witches OAV came out in Jan. 2007, and the Strike Witches novel was concurrent with the NHK TV series.
Haha, yup. Quite old. For promoting the OVA back then. Even I noticed it.
