so what was it like growing up with it as a notable local product. for us in the UK it was kinda a high quality but slightly odd show (for longest time many thot was a strange japanese import... thank you internet for setting straight) OK saying that made me feel old.

The cartoon was made in Japan and the Finnish original is strange anyway. There are a lot of allegories to adult life and social commentary that flies over the kids heads in the various stories. Not to mention primal fears that we are afraid of regardless since we are human. It started with books, picturebooks and comics. I believe there was even an earlier cartoon.

Even as a kid with the butchered show, i got the feeling that it wanted delve into stuff like that. But apart from light daliances and hints i never really did. (kind scary i was a smart kid... nowaday i am probably no smarter if not dumber. Yeah i figured the animation was animated in japan (was cheap).

So what shows you like as a kid? since Moomins limited topic for me. must ask if true there a Moomin Theme Park.
