Kappa Mikey

Kappa Mikey is a show about a high-school graduate (Mikey) who comes to Japan after winning a contest to be the start of the LilyMu show. The show is primarily drawn in a Japanese anime style while Mikey (and other American characters) are drawn in a western style of animation. Kappa Mikey is an interesting venture into something new. The animation isn't the smoothest in the world, but thats to be expected from Adobe Flash. Essentially, the show is a giant parody of anime, Japanese culture, and American culture (the former being more prominent than the latter). Kappa Mikey is an enjoyable source of entertainment from a network (Nickelodeon) that was struggling to find something new and original, and definitely succeeds in being a good action/comedy show.

This show is great! At first I expected it to be corny, but upon watching a few episodes of it, I now love it! The characters have interesting and funny personalities, and I like how this parodies Japanese anime. Also, while the majority of the plots are nothing special, they're definitely funny, like they're supposed to be. One thing that REALLY adds to the greatness is the "Lilymu" show that Mikey and his friends are in. It has some very fun fights, and I enjoy Gonard as a villain, and I think the way it's played out is awesome.

Overall, a truly great show. It could admittedly use some minor tweaks, but it's great overall, and I think there's a lot of people who aren't giving this show a fair chance.

Even though it has been seven years since I first watched Kappa Mikey, after rewatching it I still believe it is a great cartoon. I really enjoyed nearly every episode of Kappa Mikey however I would say that season one started off pretty bland but becomes good after a while but season two on the other hand has some banger episodes like Back to School, Mitsuki Vanishes, Script Assassin, and The Karaoke Episode (which is my favorite by the way).

I know I said that some of the episodes themselves are amazing but the characters are what make Kappa Mikey really shine. Mikey himself is pretty funny and has a fair share of good moments but sometimes I couldn't stand how idiotic he was or how he treated Mitsuki at times. Guano was good too though he cries a little too much and is practically a wimp who gets pushed around most of the time. Gonard is just the lovable airhead who likes to eat food (mainly sandwiches) but still entertaining all around. Mitsuki and Lily are both interesting in their own right but I somewhat like Lily more though she's a bit of a jerk at times. Ozu is my favorite character cause whenever he gets angry it always cracks me up (most especially when he yells at Mikey and the others), he also seems like a precursor to Benson from Regular Show but less nicer.

There was a time when I wanted Kappa Mikey to make a comeback but now I believe it's better to leave it as it is, a relic of the past, because honestly I believe its better this way than for it to return as a bottom of the barrel remake or god forbid a cringe adult cartoon similar to the pilot.

Btw, the theme song is also a banger.
