Ozu is the producer of LilyMu and owns various things in Tokyo. When he was a kid his parents took him to the country side to practice karate, and likely later moved there when he got his own home. He has also had a prized bonsai tree since his birth. Ozu is short-tempered, bossy and very demanding. Ozu treats Mikey better than the other cast members. Ozu means well, has a sweet side and at times bails them out of trouble. He is mostly concerned more about the show's ratings and reception and is very money-oriented. Before being a producer he was a young adult who lived in the country with his wife Kiyoko and had a son, who would be later known as his director Guano unknown to Ozu. However Kiyoko and Guano disappeared while he was earning a fortune in Tokyo for his new family.

The main camera man for the LilyMu series, Yoshi is a shy, blond, beer-bellied man, who is featured in many episodes, sometimes as a main role (such as in Battle of the Band), but mostly as an easter egg.

He is a pirate, as was shown in the episode Ship of Fools. In The Bracemaster, he was Dr. Katashi's assistant, and was a dentist, and a member of the Onis in The Oni Express. In The Wizard of Ozu, he plays the part of the Tinman, but the rest of the cast ignores him and he is thus left rusting in the rain. In "Fashion Frenzy", when Lily is talking about her favorite designer making 3-legged pants, Yoshi reveals to the cast that he has 3 legs, but this has only been mentioned in this episode.

Little sushi-beings that serve as scene transitions or bumpers. They dance around and make cute noises.

The three main sushi beings starred in the Kappa Mikey spin-off mini-series, called Dancing Sushi.[4] In this show, their names are Larry (after Larry Schwarz), Roro, and Salmon, and a female sushi named Meep was created to round out the main cast.[5]
