cartoon list
The best Russian multiseries cartoons are a bit more difficult to find. However, in this area there is an indisputable leader - the cartoon "Masha and the Bear", based on the motives of Russian folk tales. True, only the main characters remained from the original fairy tale: the little girl Masha and Mishka, who lives in the forest. But the relationship between them is developing atypically: the main exploiter and oppressor in this couple is Masha, and the Bear only patiently blows all her pranks.

In the Russian Federation, the cartoon is incredibly popular. For some time it has been broadcast in Italy, Indonesia and many other countries of the world, where the "boom" in "Masha and the Bear" also began.

Also among the Russian series can be noted projects "The Adventures of Luntik and his friends" and "Smeshariki."

children's cartoons

If we omit political sketches and cartoons for adults, then the rating of the best US cartoons, designed for a long-term run, looks like this:

  • Superhero series Young Justice League (2010);
  • spy project "Archer" (2009);
  • the comedy action movie “The Adventures of Jackie Chan” (2000-2005);
  • restarting the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles project (2012);
  • animated series "Green Lantern" (2011).

Of course, there are also The Simpsons, SpongeBob, and other pretty popular things. But these cartoons do not have very attractive animation, and quite strange scenarios. Whether they should be shown to their own children is a big question.

Japanese cartoons

A special niche in the cartoon industry is occupied by projects released in Japan. Cartoons about animals in this country are not very popular. The Japanese basically make the main characters of the anime. But there are also exceptions.

  1. Spirited Away (2001). The cartoon directed by Hayao Miyazaki is on the special, honorable list of cartoons in Japan, as he won the Oscars, Saturn and the main prize at the Berlin Film Festival. In the animated film, we are talking about the girl Chihiro, who is trying to save her parents from the evil sorceress.
  2. "Pokemon" (1997 - present). It would be strange not to include the series "Pokemon" in the ranking of the best of the best: even adults are delighted with this children's film. Anime is dedicated to the struggle between good and evil. Only confrontation takes place in a fictional alternative universe.
  3. Sailor Moon (1992-1997). An extremely kind film about a warrior girl will be more interesting to little ladies. Usagi Tsukino and her girlfriends are ordinary schoolgirls in the afternoon, and in the evening - sailor warriors who protect the Earth from evil.

Expected Premieres

The best cartoons of the year 2016 are, of course, The Secret Life of Pets and Zeropolis. However, there are still premieres ahead of us.

In October 2016, the cartoon "Princess Frog" of Sino-American production will be released on large screens. The plot of the picture is quite confusing. But the plot sounds pretty interesting: a royal blood frog escapes from the palace and tries to live among ordinary people, so to speak, incognito.

The Japanese conquered the whole world with their exotic culture, so American directors are happy to appeal to Japanese motives, developing stories for new cartoons. From October 20, in theaters, you can see the Hollywood cartoon "Kubo. The legend of the samurai. " The picture has already been seen in Australia, China, Israel and other countries. 97% of reviews for a cartoon are written in a positive way.
