It's a good show!
Kappa Mikey is a good-natured and funny show. While it pokes fun at Japanese and some American culture, it isn't in a harmful way. The characters have interesting personalities, and there are things in the show that are aimed at different audiences. I personally think the show does a good job with the parodies, and the references to Anime characters are so right on!I agree that one or two shows are not altogether great, but the rest make up for it. The animation is okay. I think it suits the show. I mean they're aiming to make it hilarious not to stare at. Often times, shows like these that are aimed at a certain age are great for all ages. If you want to watch it, it is on Nicktoons.
Best of Both Worlds!!!
I'm a fan of both Anime and American cartooning and this show is best of both worlds! Mikey is hilarious and its fun to watch him fit in.This show is also perfect for any kid thats ever moved to a totally different place, like myself. You'll also fall in love with with the characters. They all have totally different and awesome personalities. It's just a real cool funny show and I really love it. Its real original and real awesome!Its sort of like a reality show. It's a show about a show. I know that sounds kind of stupid but it really isn't. Most shows about reality shows , such as "Drawn Together", are really bad. But not this one, this one is different. Not everyone will like this show, but if you love anime and you love the American stuff then you will so fall in love with this show. It's a perfect combo.
An anime about an anime!
Kappa Mikey may look dumb at first sight, but the show will honestly grow you on. It's basically about a boy named Mikey from America (And is animated like traditional American cartoons, thick outlines, round eyes etc.), and travels to Japan to star in an anime show. So it's an anime about anime kind of. But funny things happen to Mikey and his friends in the show. It's cleverly written, and the characters are lovable.
It does parody anime at times, for example, in one episode Mikey sees a doctor named Dr. Takashi who wears his medical headband over his left eye (Like Kakashi from the anime Naruto). So there are parodies of anime in here, but it is one hilarious show, and I think you should give it a try.

Clichés bashed to death in a show totally gone mad.
It is important how you watch this. "Kappa Mikey" does absolutely not take itself serious but rather wants to take clichés, make fun of them and just make its watchers have a good time. First of all, there's the unique look - with Mikey Simon looking American cartoon flash-animated style living in Japan where everything looks Anime. It has a very special style to it which is incredibly exaggerated and crazy but for that reasons likable.
Style is not everything, for sure it's the content that also matters. And here we get a lot of that. All in all, the stories are just like the show looks - mad, quirky and often exaggerated. But all happenings usually come up with parody, irony, sarcasm or any other kind of humour you can think of.
I can accept if someone does not like "Kappa Mikey" because it's better watched with enough distance not to take it serious - it's only fun and knows about it.
