    Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
    Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
    Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
    DcheatB When I first saw the preview I thought ' not another Dragon ball Z show!' But one day I watched it fully (because I was bored) and found it to be funny! When the Scene at the beginning gets ruined in some strange manner, I always smile. When Mikey Chop's up Ozo's Bonzi tree I laughed. Many people say that the animation is bad but the flash Animation is what made it funnier! the fact that Mikey is animated differential than everyone else is what makes it truly different then most show's I know, When Mikey try's to imitate his cast members expressions( aren't they called face drops?) and say's 'show offs,' I gave that a thumb's up! Why? He is The exact example of a 'fish out of water' When the Japanese release a game we just crawl over it, Mikey Mistakenly traded Gonard for a Lilymu game! We can be very near sighted to other's feelings and Mikey is no exception! He is a over the top American! The cast of Lilymu are the exact opposite of the characters they play! Gonard isn't a viscous monster, but a lovable yet dumb oaf. Mitsuki is the character that shouts out the obvious but in reality the most forgotten cast member by Ozu and is quiet. Guano Only says his name but behind the scenes is the director, the writer, and one of the stars, Which makes him the guy who has a nervous breakdown every episode. Lily is the Damsel in the distress on the show but is actually greedy, manipulative and over bearing to others. The show is how Mikey deals with these situations in the most unusual way! I give this show a 8 out of 10.
    lil_melon87 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.
    PizzaGuyLOL 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.
    Chloroform 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.
