Deli Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Anyone remember this show? It ran for a few years and did pretty well. It was basically about a 19 year old kid named Mikey Simon. He was a down-on-his-luck actor who could never make it anywhere. He finds a contest scratch ticket and wins, the prize being that the winner would become the star of the hottest anime in Japan, Lily-Mu. Mikey travels to Japan and has all kinds of crazy anime-filled adventures with his Japanese friends. I thought it was a great show. It brought two different worlds of animation into one. Sure, at times the animation on the American characters was a little shoddy, but it was pretty hilarious. With great quotes like ''...That's my food.'' ''AND IT IS DELICIOUS.'' and voice actors from The Venture Brothers, Dragon Ball Z, and various other shows.
70s Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I remember this show being okay. Never really got into it though.
Ron Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I never saw it, but from the previews, didn't look like my cup of tea. ;P
Metal Snake Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Wow, it's been a while since I've seen this show, but I remember it being decent.
JCM Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Wonderful. Just wonderful. That little purple dude was my favorite.
dragiiin123 Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Wonderful. Just wonderful. That little purple dude was my favorite. GUANO GUANO
ExKizuna Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Tried to be a good parody of anime and failed. Hard. Hated this shit soooo much.
CartoonCF Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Meh, can't say I really cared for this show.

dragiiin123 Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 you guys can be pessimistic, but you cant brake my spirit. (btw there must be 1043-269=-4 million songs named pessimistic)
Cha Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 So underrated. One of the few shows that use to make me laugh pretty hard with Ozu and Yes Man. I love brutal/hard characters that are also pretty vulnerable and lonely like Guano. 2
Burgerpants Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Don't remember if it was good or not. The theme song was pretty god though
Cha Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Original MTV pilot that after years of being lost, was posted a few hours ago by the show's former director. Of course the voices aren't completely assigned. A bunch of deleted scenes which were cut in reruns due to time limits from A Christmas Mikey were shown on a stream a few weeks ago but have yet to be uploaded on a video on their own yet. 1
CyanideFishbone Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Yet another thing I feel like I need to watch like because I love anime, but it's kind of the same thing with me and Miraculous Ladybug which I think I should really watch because of how much people draw parallels between that and Shugo Chara (probably from the existence of a cat boy love interest), but god I don't know just something about this i'm just like "naaaah", but it's way less bad here than for Miraculous.
Steel Sponge Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) I find it funny how some of the intended voices suddenly transition to the temporary ones. Seeing how Gonard was originally planned to be married with kids, the whole bit with the robot lion transforming into a robot shark, some of the tidbits with the temporary voices (i.e. "Prepare to die at the hands of my robot army."), the WWII joke, and the "dreaded PowerPoint presentation" line, alongside the acting for pilot Ozu was what made the pilot for me.

WHITE DEVILS GONARD HAS A WIFE AND KIDS GUANO IS SO DIFFERENT Damn this pilot is pretty adult. It makes me wonder how'd KM turned out if it was an adult cartoon. This was a funny pilot but the changes they made for this show are better.
