Kappa Mikey

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.

This is another stupid Japanese shows they think is funny i don't like that show much, an American kid goes 2 japan 2 me in a anime? what the hell? not a funny show u people making this crap stupid Japanese shows this is 1 & so is hi hi puffy amiyumi people leave the good Japanese shows 2 the real ones who makes it good i hate it when this shows try 2 be come chibis not funny on these shows leave the chibis on the show like azumanga daioh stop insulting anime show go- damn it i wish u would just stop making these crappy shows i feel like a dumb ass when i watch this kinda crap kappa Mikey,hi hi puffy amiyumi gotta go OK great good bye kappa & hi hi puffy

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.

I've read the other comments, and the reactions to this show is very black and white. People either love it or hate it. The thing is that the bad reviews confuse me. Some didn't like that one episode with the video game and the pirates. They thought that concept was dumb. Did they expect it to be an intelligent show? Not all shows can be "Frasier" (also a good show). The show is SUPPOSED to be ridiculous! Also, it doesn't stereotype Japan, it stereotypes the ANIMATION! Yeah, sometimes it goes a little overboard with the animation, but if you watch the latter episodes, they do it less often. The animation isn't even really part of the joke, it's the dialogue. It's got funny dialogue! If people can just sit through the show, ignore the annoying bits of animation, and listen to what they're saying, and HOW they're saying, they can find this a truly enjoyable 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.
