It's more of a terrible idea, but:

A cyberpunk anime about a cyborg/investor named Arbitrage III.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_(TV_series)

When Kimimaro accepts the money, he becomes an "Entre"[d] (short for "entrepreneur") and is drawn into the alternative reality of the Financial District,[e] where Entres make transactions using a special currency called Midas Money.

In the Financial District, each Entre is paired with a special creature who personifies their futures known as "Assets"; Kimimaro is designated to be accompanied by Mashu,[g] a horned girl who can conjure up fire-based attacks. Entres are summoned there once a week to compete against each other, betting their money in a battle known as "Deal".[h] Entres who lose all of their money and become bankrupt are banished from the Financial District with tragic consequences to them or their loved ones in reality.

"Entrepeneurs" teleport into the alternate reality of the "Financial District" to pit their "assets" against each other to fight in "deals" and gamble their "futures" risking "bankruptcy".

Said anime also stars cyber money Jesus.

It's an interesting one. Also, the main plot is "Japan is borrowing against it's future by printing too much monies"

Main point being, it's actually harder than you'd think to come up with convincing "what if they made an anime about ..." ideas that don't already exist in some form.

Yes, I know. I get it. It's a gimmick: a bunch of anthropomorphic (read: basically human) strains of rice set out to become the HarveStars in this food-based idol anime, glorifying white rice in what is essentially a propaganda piece/P.S.A. attempting to encourage more sales and growth of white rice.

With that bizarre scenario in mind, if you ride the irony, this show is absolutely hilarious. So much effort went into telling the facts of the grains industry and real world problems facing it, inserted clumsily into the actual character dialogue; you can almost imagine the meeting that was had in order to promote white rice effectively in the show. If you take into context the absolute corporate cynicism at display here, it becomes very humorous to think about, at least, for me.

It follows stereotypical rice boys, a complete set of oft-used anime personalities. They gotta train to be HarveStars, you see. When they do a special dance, it is a Harvest Show, and rice begins to grow. The main protagonist gets a crew together and the group is called Love Rice. There's also the bread boys, their rivals, whose group is called Yeast King. Even if it is enjoyed ironically there's some dumb but funny humor at play, with a lot of rice puns. Lots of rice puns.

Rename (or translate) Kimimaro's name as something stupid/a pun, and I'm in. I'm assuming the fights are already them yelling dumb one-liners that use finance terms as puns.

To be honest, I don't really know. This one looked too bad so I never got around to watching it. I'd probably watch this one first:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ClassicaLoid#Plot

Two high school students, Kanae Otowa and Sōsuke Kagura, live in a rural town that is attempting to reinvigorate their town with music. Otowa and Kagura notice one day that abnormal versions of Beethoven and Mozart have appeared, known as "ClassicaLoids". The two ClassicaLoids play music they refer to as "Musik", which Otowa and Kagura soon discover is a power that causes stars to fall and giant robots to appear, turning every day henceforth bewildered. Subsequently, ClassicaLoid versions of Chopin, Bach, Schubert and other renowned composers also start to appear. The power that the ClassicaLoids hold and their origin remains a mystery that is yet to be discovered.

MechaMozart and MechaBethoven having sonic battles with other robo-composers.
