Lets find Jojo's Bizarre Adventure references?
Ive discovered this one today, since I've only really watched Jojo this year, since they aired a TV series. So I dont know much about the CPS3 game nor Jojo Part III.
This attack is based on a Stand from Jojo Part III, I've seem it in CV wiki and it makes sense:

I noticed this one by myself, the Stone Mask is based in the stone masks that transform people in vampire in Jojo:

The funny part is that they have been added since SOTN, but in PoR they appear on a deseertic area with a pyramid, in Jojo these masks and their creators come from pyramids when first shown too.
If we stop to think, this trend began since Rondo of Blood.

Only shows how FABULOUS Jojo is. So influential and loved!

Maria's attack comes from Young Maria's Attack from Rondo of Blood.
Young Maria's mirage attack, a ninja girl, comes from Yae's Attack from Goemon.
Ganbare Goemon 4- Ocean Fortress (Yae's Puyo Puyo Boss Fight) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNCiYrRTnJw#ws)
Not sure if any of these precedes Jojo, however.

Thanks, I knew that Maria attack came from Youg Maria since I've played Rondo before SOTN for PSP :P
Nice, so someone needs to edit CV Wiki, since this one I got from there. So maybe this trend started in truly in SOTN and this mirage thing doesnt have anything to do with Jojo? Maybe its a mixed reference, like referencing 2 things in one? (like Simon from Contra for Genesis, where they tried to pay homage to Simon from Castlevania and Simon, a japanese singer.)
