Floor796 is an ever-expanding animation scene showing the life of the 796th floor of the huge space station! The goal of the project is to create as huge animation as possible, with many references to movies, games, anime and memes.
Most of the characters are clickable: you can find out what kind of character and follow the link to the source. Non-clickable characters are fictional.
LainTrain ( @LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) 2•5 months agoThat’s pretty neat. I don’t think a lot of westerners are necessarily going to get these though I don’t think “Totally Spies” or “Wunsch Punch” were popular 90s cartoons in the west (Def not the UK at least)
Edit: Nevermind just realized there’s English annotations for each character! Very cool!

yuri ( @yuri@pawb.social ) 3•5 months agoIt was produced in France, but it actually premiered in the USA first by almost half a year!
LainTrain ( @LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) 1•5 months agoI’m sure it is but I’ve never heard anyone speak of it outside of Canada and eastern Europe
Comment105 ( @Comment105@lemm.ee ) 2•5 months agoIt was on in Norway, one of the good shows. Along with Powerpuff Girls, Kids Next Door, Kim Possible, Lilo & Stitch, Dexter, etc.
LainTrain ( @LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) 1•5 months agoThat’s nice! I loved all those too, though I didn’t get to seem them as much as they were on cartoon network, not Jetix, and only my grandma’s house had CN.

LainTrain ( @LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) 1•5 months agoI have been all over the western world since I was a kid and lived in big multicultural cities all my adult life and I have never once encountered a non-Russian or a non-Ukranian who knew about a cartoon like Totally Spies or anything of that sort. The fact this website is clearly made by a Russian-speaker reinforces this further.
Of all the people I knew - British, German, Spanish, Italian, Americans from Texas to Boston, Irish, Scottish, Chinese, Bulgarian, Romanian, Latvian, Estonian, Armenian, Polish, Ethiopian or from the UAE - you ask Zillenials what cartoons they remember from their childhood - they all know the cartoon network shows like Dexter and Nickelodeon like Spongebob, but not the Jetix shows.
Me saying Eastern Europe was somewhat charitable actually, I only assume it’s the case. I also knew 1 Quebecois Canadian who knew of them, but also not sure tbh.
Pretty condescending though. Blocked.
acockworkorange ( @acockworkorange@mander.xyz ) 1•5 months agoTouchy, touchy. The condescension was all your head, buddy.
