Harley Quinn
2019–DC UniverseHBO MaxAnimation
The adult animated Harley, whose opening is short enough that the show keeps rewriting it episode to episode.
Harley Quinn opens with a main title sequence of 29 seconds.
At 29 seconds, it opens well under the 58-second median for animation sequences in this catalogue.
It arrived on DC Universe in 2019, when Young Justice, Search Party and Titans were also on the network.

29sThe first season's tenth episode specifically. The open is under thirty seconds and the gag inside it changes, so a clip like this is one variant rather than the version.
