These works have titles [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin which are puns of some sort]]. The creators are probably slightly less proud of themselves then the creators of works with {{Double Meaning Title}}s. Or at least they ''should'' be. Like with the DoubleMeaningTitle, it's usually stubbornly resistant to translation to other languages, resulting in the need for a CompletelyDifferentTitle.

* ''[[HaleNochiGuu Haré+Guu]]'': its original title, "Janguru wa itsumo Hare nochi Guu", is usually translated as "The Jungle was always nice, then came Guu". However, the last three words are regularly used in Japanese weather forecast, and can be interpreted as something like "clear with a chance of showers". Thus, the title's underlying meaning would be "The jungle is always clear with a chance of showers."
