Kappa Mikey

THIS SHOWED CURED MY EPILEPSY, ITS CONTENT FELT LIKE HAVING FRUIT LOOPS MAMA BIRDED INTO MY MOUTH I LOVED IT

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.

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.

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.

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.
