Existence of Saki Sanobashi/Go For A Punch

There's a scene so similar in Nichijou that makes me wonder if maybe this person saw it out of context and had a nightmare about it later that distorted their memory and made them remember it as being scary rather than comedic. Though if you were to go with the assumption the anime is real as it is described, maybe the way that scene was animated in that episode was a reference to that original animation, because maybe they just didn't care about it being an extremely obscure reference because it just seemed funny to themselves.
The way the scene is done gives me the vibes that it's a parody of something. Apparently the scene is in the manga too but not with those same stylistic flourishes but I don't know for sure because I haven't gotten to that point in the manga.
Also, I aknowledge it's very very very unlikely that that scene was actually meant to be a reference to "Go For a Punch" but it's just a theory. I think it's more unlikely the OP just saw that clip from the episode and mixed it up in his mind in a nightmare and it was such a vague memory in the first place that he didn't know it was a comedy thing originally.
Also I don't remember what episode it was in, maybe 7 or 8? It was an early one.
