    I'm not sure I understand your question but I have to ask...
    Is there any kind of legal action that isn't "serious"?

    If the art is an obvious rip-off of an original work and has no satirical value then you may find yourself in trouble. If it is simply in the Japanese Manga or Anime style then you can do pretty much anything you like. There is a difference between imitating a style and copying a character or design.
