Mighty Orbots, just for the theme song alone. Now that I think about it I will have that song stuck in my head all day.

Doraemon

This is a very big franchise in Asia but rarely mentioned in the west, so let me introduce it to (most of) you :>

Doraemon is a robot cat from the 22nd century who has gone back in time to help a kid named Nobita. He has a lot of wacky gadgets to offer. Each episode is basically a story about one of these gadgets. They also pump out a new movie every year.

Ninja Hattori is big in Asia but unknown in the rest of the world as well right?

Doraemon is incredibly popular in Spain, to the point that basically everyone no matter the age knows at least the premise and the main characters. It baffled me when I found out that it was largely unknown in other western countries.

Edit: I just remembered Shinchan, another anime that is huge in Spain but not very popular elsewhere.

Once I turned 10: SpongeBob and the Simpsons

Before that: everything, including PokΓ©mon, GummyBears, Darkwing Duck, I am Weasel, recess… I just loved everything!

So many... The earliest cartoon I remember loving was The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. It was incredibly cozy. Then I discovered Cartoon Cartoons, especially Powerpuff Girls, Johnny Bravo, and Dexter's Laboratory with their throwback art styles, and got obsessed with those for a while.

Eventually SpongeBob came out and became my personality, because he was basically an annoying kid trying his best to be friends with everyone like I was. (It's played out now, it wasn't back then.)

ETA how did I not mention classic Looney Tunes. Before we had cable I was really into the classics.

I used to be scared of Tintin for some reason, but loved to sit around watching it.

I was never really into cartoons but I enjoyed Pee-wees Playhouse.

What happened to Tazmanian Devil?

[–] N00b22@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

Do you mean Taz Mania or the original Taz shorts (Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies)?
