A Sub-Trope to Animesque. Almost every anime has a catchy opening. Anime openings are rife with their own tropes and cliches, making them distinct from Western cartoon openings. In the West, lyrical theme songs are more limited to kid shows and sitcoms. This has led to the question: what if their favorite media had an anime opening? This is often used for comedy. There's humor to be found in creating a serious animesque opening for a comedic show and vice versa. It's also not limited to pieces of media, as there have been fan anime openings created for WWII, Bernie Sanders' 2020 presidential campaign, and the entirety of the Byzantine Empire. If the parody is from an official source, expect a Suspiciously Similar Song to be used to avoid getting into copyright trouble. The opening may include an Art Shift to an anime style. More often than not, such parodies are a Homage or Affectionate Parody to the anime genre. After all, who doesn't love an epic opening? |

Parodies of Nichijou's first opening are common, such as this one with the characters replaced by those from Jojos Bizarre Adventure, this one which uses the Kaguya-sama: Love Is War cast, or this one, which uses the Toradora! characters. This version uses the Nichijou characters, but its costumes and settings are from Among Us. | |

One fan video reworks the Neon Genesis Evangelion opening for Twin Peaks by replacing the animated clips and Ken Burns Effect stills from the original with images and clips from the live-action Twin Peaks, with Agent Cooper taking Shinji's place. This plays on similarities between the two works, with both being Mind Screwy cult favorite shows from the 90's with heavy amounts of esoteric symbolism, and also plays on the "Twin Peaks is an Anime" meme that became popular when Season 3 was released. Video here (contains major spoilers for Twin Peaks). | |

The opening of the TV version of Train Man (2004) parodied the Daicon IV anime sequence, using the same music and key sequences but using Mina (a character from a Show Within a Show on Train Man) instead of the heroine and with flying trains instead of flying swords. | |

Pop Team Epic: The anime does a bait and switch with this, starting off apparently like a magical girl/pop idol anime called "Hoshiiro Girldrop" complete with an anime opening. Just as its first title card is read out, Popuko appears and rips it apart, starting the real anime of the series. | |
