In episode 4, around the 10:15 mark, there is an animation error regarding the way the surroundings are reflected off of Celty's visor. As Celty approaches and eventually passes things in the surround, objects should get smaller as they move towards the edge of the visor because the visor thins as it moves toward the edges. Instead, objects increase in size as Celty passes them, a budget-saving animation shortcut that creates the bizarre effect of making her visor look like it's driving toward something in the opposite direction.
In episode 7, on the marquee of the film theater, we see a poster for the film 執事の沈黙 (Shitsuji no chinmoku, "The Silence of the Butlers"). This is a pun on the film "The Silence of the Lambs" (which translates as 羊の沈黙, Hitsuji no chinmoku).

The PC box indicated that the hardware manufacturer was NEG which is a parody of the famous Japanese IT company NEC Corporation. The boot-up screen indicated that the operating system was “wbunte” which is a parody of the famous Linux operating system “Ubuntu”. It's a bit strange, though, since the PC box indicated that the PC had Windows 7 installed on it. In addition to that, the boot-up screen indicated that the BIOS was created by Phantomas Technologies which is a parody of the French fictional serial killer “Fantômas” created by Marcel Allain and Pierre Souvestre in 1911.
