ヘルシェイク(競走馬)
[[Real life]] Japanese Thoroughbred race[[horse]], romanized name rendered as "Hell Shake". Sired by [[Hokko Tarumae (racehorse)|]] and foaled by Pisa no Meissen.

The horse was named after the [[Poptepipic]] character [[Hellshake Yano]]. When Hellshake's owner, the Yamaguchi Stable, put out a recruitment notice for a jockey, they specifically asked for one named Yano, resulting in the hire of [[Yano Takayuki]]. As such, most art featuring Hellshake (and Yano) skews towards referencing Poptepipic.
