** Bender also once sang a song like this about himself:
--->Bender is great, oh Bender is great, Bender, Bender, Bender...
* In various of the theme tunes used by the UK and US ''WesternAnimation/SpotTheDog'' shorts:
** ''...He's soft and cuddly and he smiles a lot/if there ever was a pup to cheer you up...''
** ''...With a smile and a laugh he can light up your day/Like the sun get over the hill/and his tail wiggle-wags 'cause he's ready to play...''
** ''...Here he comes with a giggle and a hop/running so fast that he just can't stop...''
*** The full version adds ''...Wagging his tail, wanting to play/looking for whatever's coming his way...''



* The American version of the AnimatedAdaptation of ''WesternAnimation/MegaMan'': while the bragging is only in the last two sentences of the theme ("Super fighting robot Mega Man, fighting to save the world!"), the overall musical tone and the opening animation itself is about how much Mega Man kicks ass.
* ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'':
** The theme tune probably counts.

From their tower, they can see it all! (Teen Titans!)\\

You can rest knowing they've got your back!\\

** The 60s theme tune is a better example:

He's fightin' and smitin' with repulsor rays!\\
(Amazing armor!) That's Iron Man!\\

* The American version ''WesternAnimation/BobTheBuilder'' has probably one of the AnimatedAdaptation of ''WesternAnimation/MegaMan'': while the bragging is only in the last two sentences of the most well-known ones. The theme ("Super fighting robot Mega Man, fighting to save the world!"), the overall musical tone and the opening animation itself is song boasts about how Bob and his crew can get jobs done quick by working together.

** The original 1980's version's theme song is even more boastful, declaring how Sam can
do all sorts of awesome things, including the stereotypical firefighter activity of rescuing cats from trees.'
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Freakazoid}}'''s theme tune is a parody of the likes of ''Spider-Man'', starting as this before descending into [[SurrealThemeTune pure lunacy.]]

--> Weebles wobble, Weebles wobble, Weebles wobble but they don't fall down.
* Some ''WesternAnimation/YogiBear'' shorts open with such a theme, though not all of the lyrics are actually ''praising'' him. The full jingle is as follows:

--> Who believes the world's a dream and falls for some fantastic scheme

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Madeline}}'' had "I'm Madeline," in which Madeline informed viewers that "If you believe you must be big in order to be tough / Then you should get to know me / I'll teach you other stuff!"
* ''WesternAnimation/TimothyGoesToSchool'' might have the mildest example of this on record.
* The first ''WesternAnimation/{{Jem}}'' theme is one of these. The rival band, The Misfits, have a segment boasting about themselves in it as well:

* ''WesternAnimation/SagwaTheChineseSiameseCat'' - another mild example - the theme song is literally the phrase "Sagwa, you're my best friend" repeated in both Chinese and English.
* ''WesternAnimation/BobTheBuilder'' has probably one of the most well-known ones. The theme song boasts about how Bob and his crew can get jobs done quick by working together.

** 2003: "I know a girl, and there is no one sweeter. She's got the special touch. Best friend in the world, and when you get to meet her, you'll love her very much. (She's doing fine, growing better all the time!)"
** 2009: "She may be small, no task is too tall. She'll be your best bud, just give her a call! She's got style extraordinary, she's so sweet and she's caring."
* The ''[[WesternAnimation/TheSuper6 Super 6]]''
theme song is literally as sung by Gary Lewis and the phrase "Sagwa, you're my best friend" repeated in both Chinese Playboys:
--> Meet the men of Super Service,\\
Facing danger just for kicks,\\
Half a dozen super strong men,\\
Who are called the Super 6.\\
SUPER 6! SUPER 6!\\
Battle criminals
and English.

* ''WesternAnimation/SuperRobotMonkeyTeamHyperforceGo''
has one as well.
-->If you need a hero that's a name you should know!
* ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'':
** The theme tune
probably counts.
--->When there's trouble, you know who to call! (Teen Titans!)\\
From their tower, they can see it all! (Teen Titans!)\\
When there's evil on the attack\\
You can rest knowing they've got your back!\\
'Cuz when the world needs heroes on patrol...\\
TEEN TITANS, GO!
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyGx3m1gPZI Cyborg has his own version.]]
--->When there's trouble, you know what to do! (Call Cyborg!)\\
He can shoot a rocket from his shoe! ('Cause he's Cyborg!)\\
Dah dah doo dah, something like that, oh yeah!\\
Na na na na, big fluffy cats, that's right!
* "''Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles'', Heroes in a Half-Shell, Turtle Power!"
** From the original [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987 1987 cartoon]]:
--->They're the world's most fearsome fighting teens! (We're really hip!)\\
They're heroes in a half shell, and they're green! (Hey, get a grip!)\\
When the evil Shredder attacks\\
These Turtle boys don't cut 'em no slack!
** From the [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003 2003 cartoon]]:
--->(Turtles count it off!) One, two, three, four!\\
(Turtles!) There's no
one better!\\
(Turtles!) Watch out for Shredder!\\
(Turtles!) They're like no others!\\
(Turtles!) Those teenage brothers!
** The [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012 2012 cartoon]] continues to follows suit:
--->Here we go, it's the lean, mean ninja team\\
On the scene, cool teens doin' ninja things\\
So extreme out the sewer like laser beams\\
Get rocked with the shell shocked pizza kings!\\
Can't stop these radical dudes!\\
The secret
of the most well-known ones. ooze made the chosen few\\
Emerge from the shadows to make their move\\
The good guys win, and the bad guys lose!
** From the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKhsipWFank full theme]] for ''[[WesternAnimation/RiseOfTheTeenageMutantNinjaTurtles Rise of the TMNT]]'':
--->In shadows, Splinter trains them, in darkness they find their fate\\
Better with each adventure, yeah, they've gone from green to great!\\
Each one with their own power, makin' their own rules to the game\\
Mikey, Donnie, Raph and Leo, puttin' bad dudes to shame!\\

* ''WesternAnimation/TomSlick''
-->Let me tell you why\\
He's the best of all the guys
* The original ''WesternAnimation/{{Underdog}}'' show had two versions:
** When criminals in this world appear\\
And break the laws that they should fear \\
And frighten all who see or hear, \\
The cry goes up both far and near \\
For Underdog! (x4)\\
Speed of lightning! Roar of thunder! \\
Fighting all who rob or plunder! \\
Underdog! (x3)
** When in this world the headlines read\\
Of those whose hearts are filled with greed, \\
Who rob and steal from those in need, \\
To right this wrong with blinding speed \\
Comes Underdog! (x4)\\
Speed of lightning! Roar of thunder! \\
Fighting all who rob or plunder! \\
Underdog! (x3)
* ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales''' superhero spoof, ''[=LarryBoy=]'', also has a bragging theme song.
-->Who do they call when Bumblyburg's in trouble?
-->Who's got the suit with super-suction ears?
-->There's no need to panic, 'cause this guy's manic,
-->And you know that he'll save the day!
-->You need a hand, he's right there on the double
-->Hey, hey, he's on the way

* [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall LINKARA! He is a man (PUNCH!), wears a purdy hat...]]
** Also Santa Christ. He goes surfing in space and hangs out with Creator/MrT.
* There are THREE of these in Milkquarious: You're Almost as Beautiful as Me, Have You Met My Muscles, and I Am the King.
* Music/DoctorSteel's song, "The Doctor Steel Show". A small bump of this song is played at the beginning of each episode of ''The Dr. Steel Show'', and a slightly altered instrumental loop plays at the end of Episode 1.
-->Deep underground with my robots\\
Built ‘em out of toy parts\\
Build an army and war starts.\\
[=UFO=]s that throw a radium glow\\
Into your skull it sinks\\
Turn your brains into Shrinky Dinks.\\
What fun, I built a Ronald [=McRay=] gun!\\
Now this little puppet’s about to get rough!
-->I’m a man with a plan and a mechanical band\\
Who [[Series/HRPufnstuf can’t do a little, cause he can’t do enough]].\\
And as my armies rise\\
They take to land and sky\\
You’ll find the [[{{Pun}} toys uprise]] inside
* A possible {{Deconstruction}} is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqCXXMvMm6g "Everyone's a Hero"]] from ''WebVideo/DoctorHorriblesSingAlongBlog''. The song is essentially trying to tell how great Hammer is while posing as an inspirational speech.
** His introductory number, "A Man's Gotta Do," also counts- he actually ''[[DynamicEntry interrupts]]'' Dr. Horrible's more melancholy version, then spends the rest of the song bragging and hitting on nearby women.
* Battle On! the theme of ''{{WebAnimation/TOME}}'' is a dueling bragging theme tune between Alpha and Kirbopher.

** Pepper Ann's theme is more of a parody; the lyrics are more a tongue-in-cheek show of Pepper Ann's self-version of herself, or rather, what she wishes she was like. This is lampshaded by one line of the song:
-->''Who's that girl? What’s her name?
Is she cool? Is she lame?
(Oh, you're talking 'bout what’s-her-name)
Pepper Ann!''
