I often have trouble accepting that the names I call a lot of cartoon characters are not their names in other parts of the world. Like these are Schtroumpfs. At least that kind of sounds like Smurfs… in the case of stuff like "Olive et Tom" or Goldorak, their equivalents in other languages are really different. In Italian, Olive et Tom becomes Holly e Benji… when their original names in Japanese are Tsubasa and Genzo. Because it all makes sense! Tsubasa - Olive, same thing!
