** Chapter 172.1 puts Shirogane as the protagonist of a [[HaremGenre harem romcom]]. Kei is now NotBloodRelated and has a [[BigBrotherAttraction brother complex]], Fujiwara is a clingy next-door neighbor with whom he made a ChildhoodMarriagePromise, Kaguya is an evil IceQueen who falls in love with Shirogane the instant he stands up to her, Hayasaka is a pervert who propositions him immediately, Miko is his kohai who is in love with him [[SmittenTeenageGirl for no adequately explained reason]], and Ishigami...doesn't exist, because harem protagonists don't have male friends. This is when it turns out to be [[AllJustADream Ishigami's nightmare]].

* ''Manga/TheRedRangerBecomesAnAdventurerInAnotherWorld'' is an affectionate parody of stock {{Toku}} heroes. Tougo plays all of the sentai tropes incredibly straight, but they don't always mesh well in a fantasy setting. For instance, summoning your Humongous Mecha in a tiny cave means that it simply can't move inside such a cramped space.

* ''Manga/UchiNoMusumeNiTeODasuNa'' is an adult parody of the superhero genre, with its two lead heroines ([[http://safebooru.donmai.us/posts/1630422 Athena and her daughter, Clara]]) being parodies of ''ComicBook/PowerGirl'' and ''ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}'' respectively. Athena, while more commonly known as "the First Generation Eighth"[[note]]since she was the original from 20 years ago, while Clara is referred to as "the Next Generation Eighth"[[/note]] is also known as: [[StacysMom "the MILF]] [[InSeriesNickname of Steel".]]

* ''LightNovel/HaiyoreNyarkoSan'' is probably the [[WidgetSeries weirdest]] infatuated parody of the Franchise/CthulhuMythos ever made. It also makes fun of many trappings of the {{otaku}} lifestyle, as well as the HaremGenre.

** Chapter 74 as a whole to ShoujoDemographic romance stories. Kaguya goes from a calculating person to a typical shoujo heroine, she's in a LoveTriangle with Shirogane and Ishigami (of all people) and has to choose between them to go to the aquarium, and BishieSparkle is rampant. And it's all because they starting reading ''[[ShowWithinAShow Today Will Be Sweet]]'' together. Extra points go to Aka for [[PaintingTheMedium trying to imitate the large advertisement space of shoujo magazines during the chapter]].

* Likewise, ''Manga/OuranHighSchoolHostClub'' has fun with parodying a lot of {{cliche}}s associated with romance and high school comedies, even though the series itself falls under ''both'' banners (and the manga artist herself had written things like it in the past until ''Ouran'' became her breakout hit).
** The anime has somewhat different characterizations and cuts off with a GeckoEnding, but it still manages to be both a hilarious reverse harem parody and gender farce ''and'' a high-quality reverse harem series in its own right.

* ''Manga/GanbareNakamuraKun'': Is a parody of BoysLove, in which the ButtMonkey protagonist multiple times fails to get closer to his crush by failing to use multiple tropes associated with the genre. That said, the main romance is so earnest and legitimately cute that it seems to come from a place of love for the genre.

* ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'' is arguably as much an Affectionate Parody as it is a {{Reconstruction}} of the super robot genre; the heroes are able to win, for example, on [[{{Determinator}} pure determination]] alone, literally (and I do mean ''literally'' as the series explains halfway through the series) and it's otherwise just [[SerialEscalation so over the top]] as to be awesome even when it's not trying.

* ''Anime/CarnivalPhantasm'' is an affectionate SelfParody of the Franchise/NasuVerse, as it depicts characters from ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}'' and ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' in bizarre amd goofy situations, such as the Holy Grail War being reduced to a Game Show, or playing a beach volleyball match (with ''VideoGame/MeltyBlood'' mechanics no less), where [[SlapstickKnowsNoGender poor Ciel was severely injured and abused]] (Mostly by [[FriendlyEnemy Arcueid]]). Aside of all this absurdity, they all look pretty happy (Even the local ChewToy Lancer) and living normal lives, very uncommon in the source material.
