I am hesitant to say to the Internet, "tell me what I should know about these anime franchises to better contextualize these memes" — I can already see the lore-dumps in my mind's eye — but as someone quite out of those loops, if there are interesting observations to be made about the specific juxtapositions, I am all ears... :-)

Mostly, as I said over on Bluesky, it's because you featured some big franchises.
The only specific observation I'd make is Anya Forger (3rd image), who is a spy in a family of spies... and who I can easily see as mucking with something like the Demon Core. But as it's a pretty lightweight show she'd never come to any harm. <snips lore dump> :)

I fully agree!
