one topic I find weirdly charming is stuff for kids that's basically specific to one place. when there's some obscure thing that pretty much everyone outside your country goes 'what?' and everyone in your country goes 'OH MY GOD THAT' when you mention it, that's the shit
#personal crap#you are not only invited but requested to put your country's examples of this :p#i don't mean shit like thomas the tank engine or asterix or tintin or moomins that get everywhere i mean very region specific shit#ofc this also excludes like 90% of american kid's stuff lmao#i mostly though of this because of a jj mccullough video where he went to chile#and one thing he got was a print of this famous cartoon character that chileans love but doesn’t exist outside chile#and bc of joel joking about being scared of bamse on an april fools stream#so when i went to malmö and saw a bamse painted on a wall i went oh shit#obviously as a brit i know tonnes of ours- mostly old animated shows like magic roundabout and wombles and clangers lol#though it's still wild to me how we share the first one with the french#sidenote but someone made a fascinating documentary on yt about the movie of that and how it became doogle#he discussed the whole history of it and even interviewed a bunch of the writers and animators it was really interesting
