You know those animes you can't take seriously?
Mostly the ones where they yell out their attacks with strange names, like Shining Finger or Shocking First Bullet, and a favorite...Pink Sugar Heart Attack (though that one WAS meant for comic relief, I admit).

As hinted by the attack names, my examples are G Gundam and Scryed. (But not Sailor Moon, cuz that would make this an even longer post)

G Gundam, because it's so hilariously strange.
Chibodee's angsty past?
His mother was killed by rioting clowns at a circus, so now he's scared of clowns and can only be soothed by a woman singing Star Spangled Banner.

And Scryed?
Kazuma's second form of his Shell Bullet powers puts a PROPELLER on his back.
He's a helicopter! A Kazuma-Copter, if you will!

What are your favorite animes to snark at?

I agree whole heartedly with DBZ, and if you ask me they were asking to made fun of the second they called it Dragon Ball Z, how much closer to Dragon Balls can you get?

YuGiOh mostly as not only do the card strategies they use suck, but do you actually explain it to your opponent? actually this extends to most anime that promotes a toy.
