Why this kind of episode became so popular in anime? I know the episode that
were made for a parody is a Joke episode to entertain. But What is the first
anime Parody that were found in anime hitory ?

The first Anime/Manga with a parody's genre ever created


Oldest Manga/Anime that's considered "Parody" I could find is [Sennin
Baraku](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sennin_Buraku) which started
serialization in October 1956 and the 23 episode anime started in 1963.

(From Wikipedia)

> Sennin Buraku takes place in Taoyuan, a small Edo period village, populated
> solely by Taoist ascetics. The eldest, Lao Shi, conducts research into magic
> and alchemy, while his disciple Zhi Huang remains more interested in
> pleasures of the flesh. He has fallen for three pretty sisters who live
> nearby, much to Lao Shi's annoyance.

No idea why parody is popular, but like most genres, it's probably helped
significantly by the general popularity of anime.
