Anime is a lot like sex. Done right it's a beautiful act of creation that brings a little more light into the world. If it's sick and wrong... it's even better.

I talk about Yakitate!! Japan a lot, as it's one of my favorite animes that I feel is super underrated, but, I don't think I've mentioned before, that they do a LOT of parodies. The bread they eat give people "Reactions" and some of them are flat out parodies of other animes:
Naruto:
Detective Conan (Short clip, was at least half of the ep)
And even the Japanese Pepsi mascot, Pepsiman
I'm sure there were others too, but I haven't sat and watched it in a while.
Another one that comes to mind is Space Dandy. Besides the whole show being a parody on Cowboy Bebop (I mean, not officially, but that's basically what it is.) There are a few times they parody different genres. But the biggest thing that comes to mind is the first ep of season 2, they keep pulling cosmic strings which pull them into other dimensions, and they find different versions of themselves. While there are many parodies of different things in that episode, the biggest and most obvious Parody was of The Big Bang Theory, even poking fun at "Schrodinger Cat".
I can't find a clip of that one. But it's really obvious.
All of FLCL was a parody. Of course I am talking about the original and not the sorry-a** FLCL Progressive and FLCL Alternative.
I never considered Space Dandy to be a parody of Cowboy Bebop until now. But the more I think about it, the more I can see the connection.
Jackie Coogan, Charlie Chaplin, and Charles Reisner as the Bully.
Reisner was a former pro boxer who turned actor, writer, and director. He previously worked for Chaplin behind the camera on The Gold Rush. Reisner would later become known as a comedy director working with The Marx Brothers, Jack Benny, and Abbot and Costello, among others.
Can Cromartie High School be considered a parody of anime high school series?
Regardless, it is funny.

Then there's this:

I just watched the first two episodes of Cells at Work. It seems to partly be a parody of your basic girl-attacked-by-monsters-is-saved-by-strong-male-hero genre. More after I finish the series.

Megas XLR parodied anime.

Would you say that this parodies mecha anime?

No, that IS a mecha anime

Even if the entire series itself is a parody?

Yup. Canti is original to the series.
The series parodies Hamtaro, Lupin, South Park, and all sorts of things, but the mechs were their own.
Kiss Note meanwhile totally parodied Death Note
Duel masters parodied a lot

Because it is mecha.

And you can't have a mecha parody?

You can. For example Excel Saga totally made fun of the Power Rangers/Voltron
But it was not the main plot point of the show to have them fighting robots.
In FLCL they had all original mechs and it was the main plot that they had Canti fighting medical mechanica and their robots and thei robots were original creations not based on something else.

But you can still parody a genre or sub-genre with original characters. They do not have to be copies. If you consider, for example, Space Dandy to be a parody of Cowboy Bebop, the characters in Space Dandy were not copies of those in Bebop.

Yes, but FLCL is more satire as far as the robots go. A parody has a specific original you're making fun of.
like in macademi wasshoi. They parodied Evangelion.
This was their angel
And this was the guy trying to stop him.

The angel was satire while the teacher there was clearly parodying Gendo

A parody does not have to go after a specific show. It can take on a whole genre. Have you ever seen Blazing Saddles? It's a parody of the great American western. It does not single out any particular movie.

Yes, but FLCL doesn't parody the mecha parts.

Partly it does. It may not be a major part of the show, but if you can say based on one scene FLCL parodies South Park, which it obviously does, then you can say it spends a little time parodying mecha.

Again the mecha are original.
Now Slayers parodies stuff all the time.

So you suggest something then. What definitely parodied animes do you know of?
