Description: Kappa Mikey
Mikey Simon is an American cartoon character who wins a scratch-off contest, giving him a role in the new Japanese anime series, "LilyMu." Traveling to Japan, he helps the show skyrocket in the ratings.
However, Mikey has a wild time adjusting to the local culture, and results in quite a few oddball adventures with his fellow "anime" cast members. Much of the humor revolves on how much Mikey stands out from the rest of the characters, while much of the cast are familiar anime cliches (such as the hot-headed anime girl and many others). Mikey is drawn in a familiar Americanized style similar to show's Like Dexter's Laboratory and the Powerpuff Girls.
