Indecisive Parody	comment	In order for a parody to work, it needs to also take on many of the traits of its target. Action films will, inevitably, have to have some action sequences of its own. If it didn't, it wouldn't be so much of a parody of a genre as it would be Conversational Troping over movie action scenes. A parody of Magical Girls would be required to have a Magical Girl character arc to emulate the patterns associated with the genre. Most of the best parodies actually stand not only as comedy, but also embrace the particular genre they are a creation of. However, the line for what defines a work as a parody can often get murky. Besides flat-out labeling something as a parody (which is rarely a good sign due to the lack of subtlety involved), the criteria for a parody may be indistinguishable from playing the genre completely straight. Some works straddle the line, unsure of whether it's a parody of a genre or just a comedic story using certain genre trappings. This can often lead to Misaimed Fandom when people take a parody dead seriously (or, perhaps due to Parody Displacement, are unaware that it even is a parody). This creates the Indecisive Parody, a work that is trying to lampoon certain storytelling conventions but misses the mark by either playing the story surprisingly straight or finds itself targeting something unrelated to the genre in question. How this happens can vary widely. Perhaps it is just too affectionate of the genre it's a parody of that it lacks any real bite to it. Perhaps it's making jokes the genre has already been making for twenty years. Perhaps it's just too close to its target or doesn't have a fundamental understanding of the target. It could be trying to parody something other than the most obvious subject. Perhaps it was actually meant to be serious, but was too comical (intentional or otherwise) to work. Perhaps the "parody" mostly consists of pointing out it's doing the stuff it's supposed to be mocking instead of more foundational replication. But usually this happens because the creative team couldn't lock in on the right tone due to a lack of unity in vision. Indecisive Parodies can sometimes come from Values Dissonance where cultural divides changes the perception of the genre, which may have never been taken seriously to begin with. Some Japanese media has an inherently silly premise but then treats it as a dramatic story. Japanese audiences have more tolerance for over-the-top, whimsical silliness in fiction, while Western audiences will often assume fiction with goofy premises is too silly to be anything other than parody if it's not aimed at children. See Stealth Parody for when something very intentionally evokes this to try and get responses as such. Compare with Redundant Parody, when a parody of a work ends up coping the humor and meta-commentary the original work already possessed. See also Denied Parody, where a work that is seen as a parody is denied to be such through Word of God.

Indecisive Parody / int_12464b0f	comment	A Sister's All You Need: Main character Itsuki is generally laughed at and called a pervert for having an open sister fetish and expecting things to play out in his life as they do in light novels, and in addition, he's a lazy bum who causes no shortage of trouble for his publisher because he expects his life to be all fun and no work. Then again, the series is not above indulging in light novel cliches itself (specifically of the Fanservice kind), which makes it particularly strange when the cast talk about how unrealistic and ridiculous certain light novel character types and cliche plots are, only to be greeted with situations and characters that are exactly as ridiculous as the ones they laughed at.

Indecisive Parody / int_13134b01	comment	Twisted: The Untold Story of a Royal Vizier, made by the same group behind A Very Potter Musical, suffers from the same problem. Ostensibly a retelling of Aladdin from Jafar's perspective, it opens with a straight-up parody of "Belle", and a good deal of the jokes in the first portion are derived from What Happened to the Mouse? elements from the original movie (for example, the Amusing Injuries from "One Jump" are described as horrifically painful and deadly to the guards). Aladdin is also rewritten as a sexist Jerkass, while Jasmine is a Royal Brat with touches of The Ditz. However, the parodic elements fade away as the story progresses, focusing more on Jafar's Freudian Excuse and internal angst at trying to save the kingdom from ruin—only to occasionally delve into fourth wall-shattering jokes again. The finale, a Bittersweet Ending about love, loss, and responsibility, is played straight, and in the end, it's clear that the overall musical is meant to be taken seriously and thus isn't a parody, but it's not a straight-up dramedy, either, resulting in this trope.

Indecisive Parody / int_188ecb94	comment	Half-Minute Hero was a simple, clear-cut parody. Its sequel, however, can't decide what it is from minute to minute. Put it this way: towards the end of the game, the Time Goddess rewinds the end credits because she doesn't want the game to end before she gets petty revenge. But during the final boss fight, the characters give long speeches about how they'd rather wipe out all existence than live in a world governed by determinism, and they are dead serious.

Indecisive Parody / int_1bd9c52c	comment	This trope is a recurring issue for Lobo. He's iconically considered a parody of a comic-book badass — he has no redeeming qualities, his powers are designed to be inconsistent and include a healing ability that's so powerful it makes putting him in danger almost impossible, he has a dark backstory that's entirely his fault, he constantly swears but uses fake swear words, and his "badass" accomplishments include killing Santa Claus. But a lot of people, both fans and writers, see him as less a parody and more an exaggerated version of such characters.

Some portions the game are clearly taking the piss (half of Ford's dialogue, for instance), but other parts of the game are done completely seriously (like the conspiracy objects), and still others are ambiguous (the ending where George Washington and Abraham Lincoln show up in an alien spaceship, which somehow is both a logical development of the game's backstory and right the hell out of nowhere). Though the aforementioned ending seems to support the parody claim.

Indecisive Parody / int_2087933e	comment	Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department plays itself as an Affectionate Parody of the Tokusatsu genre by being a Work Com that focuses on the mundane lives of the Punch Clock Villains in the research and development department of the Nebulous Evil Organization that's common in these types of genres. However, toku tropes get played straight just as much as parodied in this series—for instance, there is little to no difference between Hero Antagonist Kenji/Blader and the protagonists of various serious tokusatsu shows, and there are plenty of action-packed fights and moments where the protagonists end up heroically fighting other antagonists. In particular, the final episode plays a Gondor Calls for Aid completely straight in a Grand Finale featuring the protagonists and antagonists teaming up to fight off a group of actually evil villains—something that wouldn't be out of place in any serious toku show. One favorite tactic of the anime is to show various Henshin Heroes that look way too ridiculous to be anything other than parody...only to reveal in the ending credits that they actually exist. The genre it allegedly parodies is not known for taking itself too seriously in the first place, which only muddies the waters further.

Indecisive Parody / int_264e8ad3	comment	Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon opens with an absurd and borderline ridiculous scenario that seems to poke fun at common isekai cliches: a guy with a love of vending machines (implied to be a sexual fetish) tries to save one from falling off the back of a truck and down a cliff on a windy mountain road while he's riding his motorcycle, is crushed to death by it, and is reincarnated as a sentient vending machine that can't fight, use magic, move, or do anything other than dispense ordinary goods and speak in a few pre-programmed sentences. However, the story and characters don't play around with genre conventions much or poke fun at isekai tropes often, so it comes across less as a parody of isekai and more like a standard isekai that happens to have a sentient vending machine in the middle of everything. The main character is even subject to the same Character Shilling as any isekai protagonist, being treated as a beacon of hope that brings the surrounding community together despite being a vending machine—whether or not that's intended to be a joke poking fun at the constant praise that normal isekai protagonists get or a straight example is unclear. Likewise, the residents of the Standard Japanese Fantasy Setting treating bog-standard packaged food and drinks as unfathomably delicious may be a gag, but it's also something that many other isekai series like Restaurant to Another World have featured with no sense of irony.

Dance tried to make the show into a straight-up musical comedy, since the producer thought this would go over better with an American audience. Unfortunately, due to an incredibly dysfunctional creative process, many of the songs didn't fit in with the new approach, so the show wound up swinging between Camp and seriousness, leaving no one satisfied. To quote the Variety review: "It's not an outright comedy [...] but as a serious musical — well, it's pretty damn funny."

However, the later episodes largely dispense with the silliness: Suzuka's Game-Breaking Injury and Spe's feelings of Can't Catch Up are played entirely seriously, and season 2 is played as a straightforward Sports Story.

Indecisive Parody / int_34a70b48	comment	Batman Forever takes the Batman films into Lighter and Softer, more self-aware territory but generally manages to pull off the dramatic scenes alongside the over-the-top action sequences, partially because Batman himself remains a largely serious character (with one or two jokes on the side). Batman & Robin exaggerates the comedy aspect to where Batman is considered a public servant and attending charity events, not too dissimilar to the Adam West Batman (1966) show. But the movie uses Mr. Freeze's tragic backstory from the DC Animated Universe while also having a subplot of Alfred potentially dying of an illness with Batman confronting his limitations. In between these scenes has Freeze spouting ice-related puns and Batman flaunting a Batman themed credit card.

However, the narrative never actually presents it as anything less than a serious affair; nobody points out the absurdities, Quidditch matches eat up whole chapters in earlier books and are played as legitimate and perilous setpieces, Harry himself is shown to be a big fan and a masterful player, even tying it to his father, and Rowling even released a whole supplementary book dedicated to Quidditch, which, though hardly free of jokes, suggested a level of very real investment into the sport. Consequently, there's practically a cottage industry in low-hanging pop-culture critique in pointing out that Quidditch doesn't make any sense, as despite that having been the originally intended joke, few readers seem to have actually read it as such.

The movie started simply as a movie about a war with alien bugs until someone pointed out vague similarities with the book, and meddlesome executives insisted they buy the rights to the name to avoid a lawsuit. The director claimed that he found the book too slow and depressing to get through, so he decided to make the whole thing a Stealth Parody of fascist propaganda, which he felt the book was leaning towards.

There are parts where it makes fun of Press X to Not Die sequences, or of the silliness of making a linear story-focused adventure game out of a property with no story whose main appeal is limitless creativity (particularly in the first episode), but then it jumps into a "serious" story featuring character deaths and linear setpieces and QTE sequences, and plays them dead seriously. It makes one wonder, considering that their games were mandated to follow the formula of The Walking Dead (Telltale).

In places it feels like a checklist of all the cyberpunk tropes ramped up: instead of the MegaCorp being as powerful as governments, corporations replace governments. The Hero Protagonist is named Hiro Protagonist, and is both the world's greatest hacker and the world's greatest katana-duelist. Raven is the epitome of badass, complete with a whole passage explaining in detail why he is the world's greatest badass. There are infodumps about various subjects, from toilet paper to Sumerian mythology, thrown in at random. From the mock-epic first chapter to the insane climax, it oozes Rule of Cool. It's considered a landmark work of Cyberpunk, a parody of Cyberpunk, and a herald of Post-Cyberpunk.

Indecisive Parody / int_4bbfc214	comment	The Fruit of Evolution is a series that certainly comes across as a parody of Isekai by making jokes such as the protagonist learning skills and powers at such a ridiculous rate that even he gets exasperated by it, the adventurer's guild being full of various types of perverts, and his harem simply not caring about being rivals for his affections, instead sharing him equally — two of them even first met and became attracted to him as a pink gorilla monster and a donkey, respectively. That said, the series does play the protagonist helping the girls with their personal problems pretty seriously, and plays the Prejudice Aesop straight several times throughout, so whether exactly this show is poking fun at the typical isekai formula or actually is a typical isekai punctuated by dirty jokes every now and then is not exactly made clear.

Indecisive Parody / int_54c2ff1e	comment	Seth Rogen's version of The Green Hornet seems a parody of the comic book heroes that the Green Hornet actually predates. However, parodies by their very purpose exaggerate the outlandish elements of the target. To take the Batman, one finds it outlandish that a man would dress up as a bat and even more outlandish that he would drive around in a huge car with wings on it that would look screamingly outlandish traveling to and from a crime scene. Now look at the Green Hornet who wears a rain coat with a hat (just as numerous undercover law enforcement officials do), and drives around in an ordinary looking Imperial Chrysler. Kind of odd for a parody to jettison the ridiculous elements of its source, making this an indecisive parody. The intention was probably to show how a lame and pathetic someone would be if they actually tried to be a superhero in Real Life. However, Kato is legitimately a Badass Normal and the Green Hornet does ultimately save the day, thus still making in it an Indecisive Parody.

That said, he is still an incredibly powerful hero who always saves the day (which fits the typical Wish-Fulfillment of many isekai works) and the parts of the story that don't involve him play out exactly like they would in any other dark isekai—so a character that's intended to mock over-the-top, hammy isekai ends up as no less over-the-top than the world he inhabits.

At points, they've even claimed to get facts about the movies wrong on purpose, which makes it difficult to determine if a clearly inaccurate detail in a video was a jokey Easter Egg or a genuine gaffe; they're certainly not framed any differently from the stuff they get right.

Its main heroines alone are foul-mouthed cute girl Historical Gender Flips; one of them is a Saberface just because, and she is both aware and angry about it. The characters spend their days getting on each others' nerves instead of doing anything cool, living with No Fourth Wall, and crossing over with other Type-Moon characters (Kohaku from Tsukihime being a favorite). Even its attempts at a coherent story arc are riddled with in-jokes and comedy, and some parts are called out in-universe as only getting serious in case games like Fate/Grand Order canonize them — yet the characters are treated sincerely enough to get completely serious elaborations,note everything from Okita's Incurable Cough of Death and exuberance to Nobunaga's wacky inventiveness and musket obsession is given a logic behind it consistent with prior worldbuilding, which suggests a real attempt to make them work outside of gags or parodies and its most famous story arc got a hotblooded, dramatic, very-much-straightforward-and-not-parodic-at-all remake in Fate/type Redline.

Indecisive Parody / int_6aa65acf	comment	Gremlins: The first film seems to waffle between being a dark comedy and a genuine horror film. Many scenes are played for campy, violent comedy, while others are played for straight horror. This was because the script was written as a horror film, but director Joe Dante decided to take a Lighter and Softer approach without changing the material. The sequel is a more clear-cut case of being a spoof. The scene where Kate tells the story of how her father died encapsulates this. Debate has raged for years about whether the monologue is supposed to be a serious dramatic scene, or a sick joke. Kate's final line "and that's how I found out there wasn't a Santa Claus" is either an unfortunate case of bad writing, or a punchline.

Her innate knowledge of the Marvel Universe and Genre Savviness both keeps her alive as much as it punishes her for treating her new reality like a comic book, and as she develops her meta powers, the universe forces her into that role to justify her existence. So you'll have one moment where she'll casually refer to a hero by their secret identity while expecting canon to make sure the events aren't permanent, another where people call her out on invoking Protagonist-Centered Morality, and yet another where she'll go along with an issue's plot, but do some lampshading on the way.

Indecisive Parody / int_6f96cb3d	comment	This is generally agreed to be why Sucker Punch failed in the box office. Nobody could figure out whether it was supposed to be a straight Animesque action film or a Deconstruction of that genre. The result was an Audience-Alienating Premise; nerdy audiences turned away because they felt they were being insulted while audiences who'd be interested in a deconstruction thought it was just another action movie. The misleading trailers also meant that most people didn't know what they were getting into, and in some cases, weren't happy when they found out. The film is actually about girls in a mental asylum being physically and sexually abused and trying desperately to escape from it; the Animesque action scenes are a figment of the main heroine's imagination.

Indecisive Parody / int_73b74949	comment	Borderlands The first game was a bit unsure as to whether it wanted to be a parody; on the one hand, you've got screaming midgets and bandits yelling about how you killed their friends before they got a chance to. On the other hand, the final boss is a straight-up Sealed Evil in a Can, and the Precursors sideplot is also completely straight. By the time the DLC's came out, they had made their decision—parody all the way. General Knoxx spends most of his DLC calling you up to complain about his boss, who is five, and warn you that he sent assassins after you. The Zombie Island of Doctor Ned and General Knoxx's Secret Armory (DLC 1 and 3 respectively) both leaned more on the parody side, while Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot (DLC 2) went mostly straight. Claptrap's New Robot Revolution (DLC 4) apparently decided once and for all that the series was meant to by parodic. The second game is also a shameless parody. More midgets, more nonsensical enemy banter, and a Big Bad who calls you up to gloat about how awesome he is. Such as the time he got a pony made out of diamonds, which he named Butt Stallion. Although the sidequests and enemies stay largely hilarious throughout the game, the main quest of Borderlands 2 gets dark near the end. There's the fight against Bloodwing, the fight against Angel, the abrupt murder of Roland and kidnapping of Lilith, and a bit of torture that isn't Played for Laughs (there's lots of torture, just only a little bit that isn't funny).

With such an utterly ludicrous premise, that is lasagna aliens (which look and sound as stereotypically Italian as humanly possible) coming to Earth in an oven-themed starship and attempting to "stop Garfield from eating their Earth brethren" by hypnotizing mice to do their dirty work, they feel there's no way the people who made it don't get how silly it is and aren't making fun of the show. However, the game itself doesn't seem even remotely self-aware and consists of a collection of very mundane "cat vs mice" minigames that play like your most averagely mediocre Shovelware minigame compilation, and are in fact so unrelated to the alien plot that you could remove it completely and the games would still make sense since they all only involve mice either stealing food or pestering the cat. So in the end they're left utterly baffled by the tone of the game and can't figure out if it was meant to be a parody or not.

However, the actual production values of the series are indistinguishable from Doug Walker's other work, it includes a lot of in-universe comedic jabs and critiques of major blockbuster films that seem to be written in earnest, and by the end, it starts dipping into actual serious drama. Not helping is the fact that the series had major behind-the-scenes troubles itself, which makes it difficult at best to discern which parts are meant to be deliberately bad and which parts are the result of those production woes.

Indecisive Parody / int_9a847325	comment	Cheat Slayer, a series that was notoriously cancelled after one chapter due to backlash, attempts to parody the shallow power fantasy common to isekai stories by portraying Captain Ersatz versions of various notable isekai protagonists as clique-ish hedonists running high on cheat-based powers as they enjoy gifts they didn't earn to compensate for having been nobodies in their original lives. However, the chapter also involves the main protagonist, who is himself portrayed as a complete nobody, being saved by a Hot Witch who declares herself to be his mentor and tells him everything he needs to know about how to kill them, primarily for the purpose of revenge. Its satire of the typical isekai protagonist ends up with a talentless Audience Surrogate Vanilla Protagonist being plucked from his mundane life to battle utterly unsympathetic antagonists alongside a sexy lady for a self-centered motivation, making it exactly the sort of story it's trying to critique, with the only difference being the exact details of the protagonist's backstory. In addition, there are also quite a few isekai stories that do have reincarnators or transplanted Earth folk who treat the new world as their sandbox—and more often than not those people are also the antagonists (contrast to the viewpoint transplant, who is usually one of the "good" ones).

Indecisive Parody / int_a20baf4	comment	The Dead Don't Die is what you get when Jim Jarmusch takes a crack at making a zombie movie. The violent deaths throughout the film are played for maximum horror and emotional torque while the tone remains straight-faced, even as the plot takes increasingly bizarre turns, culminating in one character turning out to be an alien and leaving Earth on a flying saucer while the two main characters acknowledge that they know they're in a movie just before making their Last Stand. It's nearly impossible to tell when the movie is trying to be funny, or if it's even trying to be funny at all, since the movie plays like someone took a bunch of random and vaguely zombie-related tropes and threw them together with little rhyme or reason behind how they'd flow or connect while starring characters any of whom could be removed without affecting the plot at all. With this in mind, it's also hard to tell if the heavy-handed sociopolitical commentary (the Zombie Apocalypse caused by "polar fracking", the zombies outright baying for the materialistic things they still cling to in undeath, and one Hate Sink character wearing a red "Make America White Again" hat) is meant to be taken seriously or is merely poking fun at how Anvilicious zombie movies tend to be when they try to work in a message.

Indecisive Parody / int_a4ff8e01	comment	Fate/Grand Order likes to try its hand at self-parody, only to then use the self-parody to continue doing what it was already doing. When it's not going for parody, some of the characters that originally came from parodies tend to get treated seriously. Much of this owes to the fact that it's part of a franchise that turned Elizabeth BÃ¡thory into a half-dragon pop idol with a tragic backstory in complete seriousness (or at least, only making fun of the character for being stupid and shallow rather than her backstory for being contrived and ill-fitting); it's very difficult to parody the franchise without creating something it would actually do. Mysterious Heroine X (originally from the Saint Seiya spoof Back-Alley Satsuki) was created to make fun of Saber's Overused Copycat Character status and the countless variants of her, being a Hunter of His Own Kind from a Bad Future where Saberfaces have taken over the world. Then two variants of MHX were created who were also Saberfaces - an Alter version who was created to hunt her "normal" self but is too lazy to bother, and an older version who had to get a real job after Saberfaces stopped being a threat - meaning that the franchise parodied its overuse of the same character design in a manner that "coincidentally" added three more characters who shared it to the pile. The world Heroine X came from, a sci-fi setting where everyone was a Servant due to having Saint Graphs inside them, was a parody of the increased focus on the Servants in other Fate series and the Nasuverse generally. Not only did the events focusing on her give a legitimate backstory to the place, but one of the sequel events introduced another Servant, Space Ishtar, who was treated just as semi-seriously. Okita and Nobunaga were originally created as gag characters for a completely silly manga (definitively male historical figures being turned into silly catchphrase-spouting waifus, one of whom is an Identical Stranger to Saber because her artist got lazy and is the biggest Saber fan in the world besides). They ended up being so indistinguishable from non-gag efforts like Nero (a definitively male historical figure who was turned into a silly catchphrase-spouting waifu, who is an Identical Stranger to Saber to intentionally contrast their personalities) that they were added into the game unchanged, and have since participated in fairly serious storylines. Jeanne Alter Santa Lily was made to poke fun at the many alternate forms a single Servant can have by combining several of them into one character. Her introductory event, on the other hand, played her existence extremely, and surprisingly heartwarmingly, straight. Learning with Manga! FGO is a 100% comedic parody, laden with Biting-the-Hand Humor, absurd Original Generation characters, and bawdy sexual humor. When it did a crossover with the main game, it did keep the jokes heavy on the ground and relentlessly mocked the devs, the mechanics, and the game's structure... but it also had one of its characters (Bunyan) become playable. There are still a lot of jokey elements to her: she was molded out of udon dough in the hopes of getting a free SSR, with an inexplicable genderswap that even the game points out is stupid, she inexplicably changes into an unnervingly sexual outfit upon ascending and gets a pink-patterned chainsaw as her weapon, and her Limit Break is something that she insists is wielding the power of the United States as a conceptual attack but is actually just her growing big and stomping on something. But her self-doubt and abandonment issues are played in a reasonably heartfelt light, and much of her new background and personality suggests a prior unheard-of serious side, best typified by her Bond Craft Essence's musing on colonial devastation of the environment.

The series attempts to parody isekai through its hero Genzou Shibata, a pro wrestler who cares way more about animals than he does people and who actively refuses to save the world he was summoned to, instead deciding to run a pet store full of monsters. Even his close companions don't hesitate in calling him out for being a weird creep with Skewed Priorities whose obsession makes them waste tons of money. Yet, for all the callouts of Genzou's behavior, he's still incredibly strong and never loses or sustains any greater comeuppance than his companion's comments, ends up in situations where he saves the day, even if it's by complete accident, and his judgements of others' character is proven to be right more often than not, with the victims of his frequent rampages being portrayed as Jerkasses who had it coming...even if their only crime was inadvertently saying something that Genzou didn't like. Each one of these qualities makes him more like a typical isekai protagonist than the intent likely was. The anime version makes the parody even more indecisive by adding the subplot of Genzou's rival M.A.O. trying to battle him and several bits of backstory that are certainly meant to be taken seriously.

Because of its popularity, Scream resurrected the slasher genre, and it's been credited with damaging the "spoof film" genre a lot more by demonstrating that one could make a funny, self-aware film that referenced genre cliches without making it an out-and-out farce. Notably, Scream would get it's own spoof film, Scary Movie (that also contained elements of I Know What You Did Last Summer), which is far more obviously a parody than Scream.

Indecisive Parody / int_af2a147e	comment	Enchanted has elements of both, thus this trope. While it mocks a lot of the tropes of fairy tales and shows how ridiculous they would be in real life, it also has a happy fairy-tale ending and suggests that life would be better if people did live more by fairy tale ideals of kindness and trust. The only way that a relationship between Giselle and Robert can work is for her to become less of a fairy-tale true-believer (and give up the perfect prince) and him to become more of one (allow himself to love someone again).

Director Robert Zemeckis went as far as claiming that he hated the original story. And yet, Beowulf's heroic nude fight is played straight (Censor Steam aside), Grendel chuckles about his crimes before he dies, his mother is as evil as ever (or worse), and Beowulf gets to die as a hero.

On one hand, both Baba' and Lion's (though specially Lion's) attempts to work the match are so deeply clumsy than nobody sane would believe a booker as talented as Baba had called them to be other thing than a parody. On the other hand, Baba never did comedy wrestling or parodies of any kind. It may be Stealth Parody by Playing Against Type.

Indecisive Parody / int_b6672d75	comment	Learning with Manga! FGO is a 100% comedic parody, laden with Biting-the-Hand Humor, absurd Original Generation characters, and bawdy sexual humor. When it did a crossover with the main game, it did keep the jokes heavy on the ground and relentlessly mocked the devs, the mechanics, and the game's structure... but it also had one of its characters (Bunyan) become playable. There are still a lot of jokey elements to her: she was molded out of udon dough in the hopes of getting a free SSR, with an inexplicable genderswap that even the game points out is stupid, she inexplicably changes into an unnervingly sexual outfit upon ascending and gets a pink-patterned chainsaw as her weapon, and her Limit Break is something that she insists is wielding the power of the United States as a conceptual attack but is actually just her growing big and stomping on something. But her self-doubt and abandonment issues are played in a reasonably heartfelt light, and much of her new background and personality suggests a prior unheard-of serious side, best typified by her Bond Craft Essence's musing on colonial devastation of the environment.

It leans so far into comedy that one wonders if the romantic plot will ever resolve, but it still gets very serious when it wants to. It's worth noting that Love Hina was the Trope Codifier for most modern Harem Genre tropes, and has examples of both Unbuilt Tropes and Once Original, Now Common, so it can be hard to tell if it's parodying a genre that it redefined.

Indecisive Parody / int_bc531e07	comment	Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs can't quite decide if it's trying to be a straight Isekai Harem Series or a parody of same. The series has a Genre Savvy First-Person Smartass for a protagonist who frequently comments on the bizarre logic or lack thereof common to the Otome Game genre, and who unknowingly becomes the butt of the joke by sending the game plot Off the Rails and never internalizing that he's now become The Hero instead of the background character he thinks of himself as. At the same time, it does play a lot of genre conventions, particularly of male-targeted Media Transmigration isekai, very straight: Leon cheats his way forward with out-of-character knowledge of the game world and manages to get both the original game's protagonist and villainess as his girlfriends by the end of the first Story Arc, he is portrayed as a reviled underdog in a way that wouldn't be out of place for any isekai protagonist, and the villains are exactly as petty and shallow as you'd expect them to be in any straight example of the genre. (The author is in fact a male fan of the female-targeted otome genre, which explains some of it.)

Indecisive Parody / int_bdb0a080	comment	Last Action Hero postmortems tended to describe this as a reason for the film's poor performance: reportedly, even the creators weren't all that sure about whether it was a parody of Schwarzenegger's typical work or an action film with comedic elements. Behind the scenes, the creators would alternate between talking about how it managed to capture and mock all the cliches of dimwitted blockbusters and speaking fondly of the escapist fantasy in being able to live in one of those worlds. In the past decade alone, Arnold had been in Kindergarten Cop, Twins (1988), and Commando, all of which were pretty comedic or self-aware, which muddied the waters even further. Tonally, Last Action Hero is in-line with those films, so it looks less like a parody and more like a lampshade-heavy version. Even the script writers were confused when certain jokes were added, noting that they made very little sense for an action movie parody.

Indecisive Parody / int_c40207f9	comment	Duke Nukem Forever attempts to parody modern shooters and hold up itself and Duke as a proper hero from the Duke Nukem 3D era. A good number of people pointed out that, for all the schoolyard insults and dated jabs, DNF's gameplay is very clearly more inspired by those modern shooters than by the original game, with its two-gun limit, ego bar, slower speed, turret sections, very low threshold of exploration, and quicktime events. A microcosm of this comes early on in the game, when Duke is told to look for a keycard and instead wrenches the door open. This would be a funny subversion of a common gaming cliche, if the game came out anywhere near when it was originally supposed to—by the time it actually came out in 2011, not only had searching for keycards already been abandoned for years, but the way he opens the door, with a quicktime event requiring mashing a button, had become an even bigger cliche by then.

Indecisive Parody / int_c6e31a96	comment	The Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures is meant as a parody of classic Nintendo Hard gameplay tropes, and it's sure to lampshade whenever possible how troublesome it is to deal with those elements: random instant-death hazards, irritating platforming challenges with disappearing blocks, enemies appearing out of nowhere over bottomless pits, the works. However, all these elements are still presented to you as legitimate obstacles to your progress, with no real twist or way to circumvent them: remove the lampshade, and it's just your standard Nintendo Hard challenge platformer. The Updated Re-release of the sequel unintentionally exemplifies this with Area 52. In the original release, it was a satire of The Problem with Licensed Games by being loosely based on Angry Video Game Nerd: The Movie. For the rerelease, as part of an effort to clean up the Random Events Plot of the original release, all references to the movie were removed, with the Nerd's related snarking going down with it. The result of this is a generic sci-fi world. Ironically, the rerelease version of the Nerd's reaction to the world bossnote the movie's Dirk Onward in the original, Dark Invader in the remake's transformation into a scorpion (originally yet another jab at the unfaithfulness of the classic average movie-based game before getting recontextualized as a Star Wars Special Edition joke) sums up the situation:

Shizuka, the only character in the series to actually be as Crazy-Prepared as your normal zombie genre protagonist, is frequently made the butt of the joke and subjected to comedic misfortune, and the series features such goofiness as Akira roleplaying as a Henshin Hero and a Shout-Out to the infamous zombie shark from Resident Evil in the same episode. This is interspersed with somber and dead-serious moral lessons about the dangers of the Japanese corporate mentality, showing how Akira's past abusive job nearly pushed him over the edge and the PTSD he and other characters still suffer from—none of which is intended to be played for laughs at all.

Indecisive Parody / int_ce50887e	comment	Dragon Ball: People forget that it was originally a parody of earlier martial arts manga, and for good reason, considering that once it became Dragon Ball Z it actually became the basis for every clichÃ© in martial arts manga since. The Ginyu Force stand as a particular example. Everything about them is meant as a parody of sentai tropes: their flamboyant nature, tendency to make random poses in the middle of combat, incredibly flippant handling of fights, and habit of giving every attack a stupid name that often end up so long to say that they get punched midsentence. The thing is, every single one of these tropes (flamboyance, characters striking poses in combat, treating fights like a joke, giving generic attacks stupid overlong names and never being interrupted) are all things Dragon Ball has featured before with no sense of irony. Really, the Ginyu Force is only a slight notch above the rest of the series, with the main difference just being the lampshading of it. One scene involving the Ginyu Force playing rock-paper-scissors to decide who gets to fight the good guys (in its original context, a parody of Mook Chivalry) would be repeated verbatim in a future arc, only with the protagonists doing it. The later Buu Saga is about halfway between being a full-on Self-Parody of the franchise's prior years and being one of the darkest arcs in the series. The main villain, after much buildup, is revealed to be a chubby childlike simpleton, the Uniqueness Decay of Super Saiyan hits the point where small children casually learn it offscreen, and Goku unlocks a new version of it where he has a 'do half the size of his whole body, and you have elements like people being turned into candy or Gotenks breaking out of another dimension by screaming. Yet the arc also has a gigantic bodycount (almost every character is killed off at one point, including the entire human race), the villain ultimately assumes several increasingly violent and humorless identities, the fight scenes are some of the most brutal in the franchise, and nearly every actually dramatic plot point is played dead seriously. Part of the reason for the arc's controversial nature is that it's rather difficult to parse which scenes are meant to be jokes. For instance, the series has the Old Kai Leaning on the Fourth Wall about how they've already done an "old man unlocks potential" powerup before, and the method itself is rather silly (it involves him dancing around Gohan for several hours and then having him sit perfectly still while the Old Kai sits across from him, vaguely holding his arms in Gohan's direction for another 20 hours - he apparently doesn't even need to be awake for the entire procedure). However, it's still treated as a legitimate ticking clock and Gohan's ultimate form is presented as a genuine culmination of a long arc for a major character—making it hard to figure out if said powerup ultimately being All for Nothing is part of the joke, or just Toriyama, as he himself admitted, not knowing what to do with Gohan after the Cell Saga.

Indecisive Parody / int_d8cc01de	comment	Big Time Rush can't seem to decide whether it's a parody of musical tweencoms or a straightforward example of one. As for the band itself, the first episode pokes fun at the stereotype of boy bands only singing about girls, and has the main characters refuse to sing an example of such a song. Guess what the majority of the songs featured in the rest of the series are about? Girls.

Indecisive Parody / int_e1d0e0e7	comment	Akiba Maid War has been described as a Quentin Tarantino or Takashi Miike film where the gangs are replaced with maids, and it uses the ridiculous juxtaposition of cute girls in frilly outfits with over-the-top bloody violence to poke fun at both yakuza films and P. A. Works' trend of Moe anime revolving around cute girls working—there's no way that a maid slaughtering scores of her enemies in time to a sugary-sweet song, complete with fountains of High-Pressure Blood, could be anything other than Black Comedy. But at the same time, the show plays its protagonist Nagomi's ongoing terror about her life being at risk straight, and later on includes scenes like Nerula and Ranko's deaths and Okachimachi's backstory that certainly seem like you're supposed to take them seriously, even when several of them are tempered by jokes e.g. Ranko's funeral, where her coworkers mourn while onlookers complain that the only photo they have of her is from a baseball game a few episodes prior.

Indecisive Parody / int_e958af9d	comment	The Ones Within certainly seems to be a parody of The Most Dangerous Video Game and Deadly Game scenarios at first—none of the protagonists' lives are in any danger at all and there's no incentive for them to start killing each other, they are told from the start that it's an Immoral Reality Show that will end when the requisite number of viewers are reached, the games they play are genre parodies, the characters are exaggerated archetypes (the main character is almost suicidally trusting, the delinquent picks fights with everyone, and the Bishōnen rarely says any words at all but still manages to make everyone fall for him just by looking at him) or Genre Savvy (including the girl who pretends to be a lesbian because she knows it will get them more viewers). However, the characters' backstories are played as seriously as can possibly be, and when they are brought up, the show gets way more serious. This is mainly the fault of an incompetent anime adaptation—in contrast, the manga's horror elements are much more effective and there is more of an underlying mystery that was cut from the anime.

Indecisive Parody / int_ea4f62db	comment	Family Guy loves to mock the way disadvantaged groups were given the shaft by the media...only to then turn round and play those jokes exactly straight themselves. The writer often used Cleveland to lampoon the way American culture treats black people, except their own main black protagonist is easily the least developed of Peter's group and most of the jokes centered around him and his family rely on their race (and he was voiced by a white actor for a very long time). Jasper, Brian's gay cousin. Seth MacFarlane went on record stating that he was supposed to be a positive character that gay audiences could identify with. The writers instead rolled up every offensive gay stereotype they could think of into one character. Quagmire's mom/dad Ida is, allegedly, a positive portrayal of a transgender woman. Even if Ida had any semblance of personality beyond "I am a woman who was born with a male body", the same episode that introduces her is stuffed with troubling jokes like Brian vomiting for almost a full minute after discovering one of the women he slept with is trans, and complaining that "nobody went around the neighborhood and told everyone" that she was trans (i.e. that nobody treated her like a sex offender).

Later arcs (and the SAO: Progressive rewrite/interquel) gradually stabilise his character into more of an ambiguously autistic Bunny-Ears Lawyer whom his friends tease but know they can depend on, while the Animated Adaptation tones down his dorky traits to play up his competence.

Indecisive Parody / int_ee77a8e2	comment	Kaiju Girl Caramelise is a shoujo manga with Be Yourself themes that tries to parody both by having the heroine's true self be a gigantic, rampaging Kaiju that she transforms into whenever she's in love or flustered. That, and other elements like Kuroe's best friend being sexually attracted to her monster form and her transforming so often around her Love Interest that the news picks up on it, are obviously meant to be jokes. However, the central arc of the series is a pretty standard shoujo romance between a bullied loner girl and the Troubled, but Cute most popular boy in school who falls for her because she sees him for his true self—and later on, it even plays the True Beauty Is on the Inside aesop completely straight when it comes to Kuroe's friend Rairi.

For every over-the-top Unwanted Harem scene or bizarre character or situation, there's also real, serious drama (often when those over-the-top characters get killed). Even the Show Within a Show Gekiganger 3 goes from a silly homage of Super Robot shows to a real problem in the show's universe. It's bad enough that the protagonist explicitly states the Aesop in the final episode just to be sure everyone's on the same page: stop taking anime so goddamn seriously.

Indecisive Parody / int_fe83990a	comment	Mysterious Heroine X (originally from the Saint Seiya spoof Back-Alley Satsuki) was created to make fun of Saber's Overused Copycat Character status and the countless variants of her, being a Hunter of His Own Kind from a Bad Future where Saberfaces have taken over the world. Then two variants of MHX were created who were also Saberfaces - an Alter version who was created to hunt her "normal" self but is too lazy to bother, and an older version who had to get a real job after Saberfaces stopped being a threat - meaning that the franchise parodied its overuse of the same character design in a manner that "coincidentally" added three more characters who shared it to the pile.
