Anime Parody is a genre that humorously imitates the style and tropes of traditional anime. It often exaggerates character traits, plot devices, and visual elements to create comedic effects. Popular examples include works like One Punch Man and Gintama, which cleverly poke fun at common anime conventions.
These parodies can be found in various formats, including manga, animated series, and fan-made content. They serve not only to entertain but also to critique the anime industry and its clichés. Fans appreciate the clever references and the lighthearted take on beloved series, making Anime Parody a unique niche within the broader anime culture.
