Or....its the German word for children

While yes, Happy Tree Friends is probably not for kids despite how it might look

I kinda think it was made with the intention kids would be exposed to it by mistake.

And I’m a 40-year old adult who knows exactly what Happy Tree Friends is, and I’m noping the hell away from it.

Quite possibly, it was rather popular in my middle school and I think MCR or some other popular band did a music video with them.

German media company managers are still think "Oh it's a cartoon, it must be for children!" No, they haven't hear the shot...

The German words on the sign in the background support your observation

I don't envy you after letting your kid watch happy tree friends. Good luck with the nightmares.

I reckon OP realized that but was more amused by the literal gore cartoon in the Kinder section and the title of the post is an entirely separate joke

What’s German?

TachyonTele@piefed.social · 12 pts · 1y

It's a big country in Europe with a lot of people in it. But that's not important right now.

My daughter happened upon Happy tree friends at about 4 or 5 years old lol. She absolutely loved it, and there was no taking it away. Luckily she was born with the ability to realize the difference between real life and make believe, and she turned out just fine.

Ffs, she's only messily killed 2 of her friends. And one of those was an accident.

jol@discuss.tchncs.de · 8 pts · 1y

She was definitely not born with that ability...

I mean, Grimm’s Fairy Tales are similar levels of absurd violence lol

Pechente@feddit.org · 11 pts · 1y

Or google Struwwelpeter if you wanna see what German kids are exposed to. Happy tree friends is tame in comparison.

DarkCloud@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

It honestly isn't a show that I think an adult is likely to watch.

Oh I miss those cartoons a lot, we watched it with friends and we couldn’t stop laughing all the time.

You fellas laughed about the poor animals dying?!! :d

mrfriki@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y

All day long. The mix of cute animals and the nonchalant gore plus funny noises was peak comedy. Probably among the best stuff on YouTube ever.

Cartoon Animals getting ripped apart by various means. Accidentally walking into a wood chipper, jumping into a barrel of razorwire, etc. pretty graphic.
