It might be a nod and a bit of foreshadowing, seeing as how the demoniacs infect humans, and senkentsu/kill la kill clothing does the entire attempt-to-take-over-the-world through infecting everyone via monopolizing the clothing industry...

<p>I was watching <em>Blassreiter</em> and I noticed that the back of Hermann's jacket has the same eyes as Senketsu from <em>Kill la Kill</em>.</p>

<p><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/PQCvgm.png" alt="Senketsu from Kill la Kill"> <img src="https://i.sstatic.net/wpFXsm.png" alt="The back of Hermann&#39;s jacket with eye patterns"></p>

<p>Are those eye patterns mean something or if they are just a playful nod from one anime to another?</p>

Is Senketsu eye patterns from Kill la Kill based off something?

Are those eye patterns mean something or if they are just a playful nod from one anime to another?
