Sakurazaki Suzuo has recently returned to his hometown of Nakasora City, eager for a part-time job; yet none can be found. After a series of heroic events, Suzuo finds himself in the company of a young girl who offers him a bargain he almost can’t refuse: wear a “toy” belt, developed by the intergalactic Otankonasu Company, and be the hero of the universe! With no money in sight, Suzuo has no choice but to accept, but he has no idea what he just got himself into! The belt transforms him into the justice-wielding Dokkoida, and he must now work for the Galaxy Union Police Department, arresting galactic criminals with his 108 deadly blows. As if things weren’t bad enough, the defeated criminals have a habit of donning a secret identity and moving into his apartment complex, causing much mayhem and hijinks. Transform, Dokkoida! Save the universe with your suit of strength!
Meet Akito, a mecha pilot with all the training... of a cook?! Along with airhead Yurika, mecha otaku Hikaru, child genius Ruri, sultry Megumi and more of their cast of misfits, they crew mankind's last hope against the dreaded Jovian Lizards -- the Mobile Battleship Nadesico! Financed by a private company, they not only have to deal with the threatening alien menace, but also Earth’s own military (in which Yurika’s father happens to be an admiral!), who are not pleased to see such a formidable warship outside of their authority...
Both of these series make fun of anime stereotypes by playing up said stereotypes in a sometimes extreme, but always amusing fashion.
Puni Puni Poemi is a spin-off of Excel Saga, the classic lampoon of all that is anime. It takes the daughter of two Excel Saga characters and puts her through parodies of shoujo, shounen, ecchi, hentai, and everything in-between. This eccentric show is the "Scary Movie" of anime: younger viewers need not apply.
Dokkoida and Puni Puni Poemi are series which lampoon standard anime sterotypes. PPP lampoons the 'magical girl' stereotype, while Dokkoida lampoons the 'normal person which gains power and becomes protector of the earth' sterotype. Both, however, are amusing in their over the top depiction of said stereotypes.
When Kaede, a girl frustrated with her grades like any other teenager, finds a female Ninja attempting to steal her underwear, she didn't expect a friendship to be the result. And as the modern day world of ordinary high schooler Kaede collides with Ninja-in-training Shinobu, she soon comes to discover that the world of modern day Ninjas are filled with parties, picnics, and the training of the elder master Ninja yellow form changing glob: Onsokumaru!
Dokkoida?! and Ninja Nonsense are both parodies of popular genres. While Ninja Nonsense obviously parodies Ninjas, and Dokkoid?! parodies powered suits, the humor and pacing of both is similar. If you enjoyed one and are looking for more parody action, you should check out the other.
