Actually in regards to text, you have covered all the main ones, but if you were referring to prophetic in nature...There might be a few more...

only 2, and the only reason hellsing was exposed was me. hmm I discovered 50% of the refrences to ancient texts in all anime. I need to celebrate. 8)

there are a few that refer to ancient texts or prophesy in general but regards to documentation such as scrolls and pictures in general I guess you could possibly includes Chobits in an obscure way...

Evangelion takes its references from THE KHABALLAH (Sp?)

H.P. Lovecraft was a writer of pulp horror novles in the 1930's. His novels inspired many writers in current days... all his novels were set in a mythology of his own design...

Big-O has religious refs in it.

I don't know much about Hellsing, other than the few Catholic Refs in the series... but I only know what I know about Hellsing from my friend who is the voice director for the show and contantly besieged by idiots...

The person who wrote the books is revealed later on. I won't spoil it for you, but it isn't Chii.
