LilyMu Towers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Kappa Mikey, LilyMu Towers is a prestigious apartment building in Tokyo, Japan. The cast of LilyMu lives in the building. It is owned by Ozu, the producer of LilyMu. The entire episode called The Switch is about how Mikey comes to live in his own apartment in this tower, after living in a capsule hotel.
Mikey's apartment unit is usually a mess, with his clothes and trash thrown around the floor. It has green wallpaper, one window that Ozu got for him as a house-warming present, and a plasma television, covering one wall that is red brick. Mikey also owns LilyMu merchanise including bedsheets, posters, and a neon light spelling out the show's title, above his TV.
Lily and Mitsuki, although roommates, do not seem to have equal say in the design of their complex- it is almost all pink, which is what Lily prefers. All the furniture has a sleek, contemporary, designer style about them. On the wall hangs a Warhol-like painting of themselves, a couch that resembles gigantic feminine lips, bean bag chairs, and bedsheets featuring the two of them. Lily owns an electronic, talking wall mirror that tells her whether or not she is beautiful, and, as in many other cartoons, the mirror has somewhat of a humanoid personality.
Gonard lives with his mom, though his room is the only part of his unit that is seen. He has a low, traditional Japanese bed, a home computer system, a skateboard with one edge bitten out of it, some sportsballs thrown around, a Gonard-themed lamp, and a Lilymu poster, surrounded by paper walls.
Guano also lives in LilyMu Towers, however, he refuses to reveal the floor his apartment's on.
Ozu seems to run the entire apartment building. He lives on the 85th and top floor of the tower (in fact, the light on the top of the elevator's plaque says "Ozu" instead the number 85), and has a whole penthouse complex. It is designed like a traditional Japanese house, with paper walls, sliding doors, ukiyo-e prints, low tables, and a courtyard outside with a garden. In Big Brozu, it is revealed that he sleeps on a bed directly over Yesman's bed, which is really a pull-out drawer underneath.
Not much else is known about what is inside the tower itself, but other than seeing the characters' rooms, there have appeared a Secret Room on the 13th floor run by a mad scientist, a complete tennis court, and a recycling system underneath, where trash is thrown into through 44 trash bins.
