Anime has been around along enough that dedicated watchers are quite familiar with its common tropes and cliché. Such tropes include screaming the name of an attack every time, the hero having an enormous appetite, fan service, the beach episode, ridiculously large swords, a character turning out to not actually be dead, and much more.

If fans get tired of these tropes, then they are in luck. There are anime that exist just to make fun of other anime. They make satire out of these common anime trends, and it is hilarious.

9 Gintama

Gintama is often the first anime fans think of when it comes to satire. It is up there with the very anime long shows, as it has over 300 episodes.

Anime Saiki-K-Kusuo-Gulliver

What if someone had a bunch of superpowers but just wanted to live a pretty average life? That is the basic premise of The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.

Tropes and their satire are deeply ingrained in the characters. One is the most pretty and popular girl in school, but she has a big crush on the main character who doesn't have a single feeling for her. Another constantly convinces himself that he is the hero of his own story and he has magical powers. Of course, there is also the salacious character and another one that is absolutely obsessed with teamwork and exercise.

7 Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun

What has more tropes than a typical anime? A romance anime.

Romance anime is ripe for satire, and Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun caught on to that. This show is most known for its hilarious romantic let-downs, as a girl is trying to win the heart of a man who knows absolutely nothing about romance. The anime has also gotten a lot of fans for its subversion of gender roles.

6 Kill La Kill

Anime Kill-la-Kill-02-21

Kill la Kill is not only loved for its animation and fight scenes, but also its humor. It tackles one of the biggest tropes of anime: fanservice. Viewers who typically hate fanservice in their shows tend to still get a soft spot for Kill la Kill because of the way the subject is handled.

They make the fanservice over the top to the point of ridiculousness for both the men and women (though the women are certainly the focus). The fanservice theme has made this aspect of the show widely debated and controversial between fans and critics to this day.

5 Good Luck Girl!

The worlds range from a dating simulation game to a 1930 gangster film. The show aired in 2002 with 13 episodes. Despite its age, the jokes are still pretty timeless.

1 Senyu

This anime is similar to Konosuba in that is a satire of the RPG genre. The episodes are super short (only five minutes long!). Due to how short they are, each episode is rich with funny content.
