Mighty Orbots, just for the theme song alone. Now that I think about it I will have that song stuck in my head all day.
Professor Kitzel.
Once I turned 10: SpongeBob and the Simpsons
Before that: everything, including Pokémon, GummyBears, Darkwing Duck, I am Weasel, recess… I just loved everything!
Thundercats original series, and the original Dungeons & Dragons.
Duckman. I still fall asleep with it sometimes.
That's not quite a children's cartoon...
I was never really into cartoons but I enjoyed Pee-wees Playhouse.

Inspector Gadget
I used to be scared of Tintin for some reason, but loved to sit around watching it.
Blues clues
I was a fan of Jonny Quest, the banana splits although that wasnt strictly a cartoon nor was Sigmund the sea monster and hr pufnstuf
What happened to Tazmanian Devil?
Do you mean Taz Mania or the original Taz shorts (Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies)?
Garfield and Friends
Beast Wars for me
Bamse — världens starkaste björn!
Avatar the last Airbender
For pure nostalgia, the answer would be Franklin.
For the wacky antics it'd definitely be a tie between Ed Edd n' Eddy and Codename Kids Next Door. What other shows can you get a cursed telephone that causes suffering and an elevator made of junk that leads to the moon for EEnE? Or for KND have a whole zoo filled with kids as the exhibits so childless parents can throw peanuts at them while also having an episode where a man who looks like a baby use his cigar to connect to a global satellite web to try and turn everyone else into babies?
Doraemon
This is a very big franchise in Asia but rarely mentioned in the west, so let me introduce it to (most of) you :>
Doraemon is a robot cat from the 22nd century who has gone back in time to help a kid named Nobita. He has a lot of wacky gadgets to offer. Each episode is basically a story about one of these gadgets. They also pump out a new movie every year.
Ninja Hattori is big in Asia but unknown in the rest of the world as well right?
I don't know about that. The authors of Ninja Hattori and Doraemon shared the same pen name though
Doraemon is incredibly popular in Spain, to the point that basically everyone no matter the age knows at least the premise and the main characters. It baffled me when I found out that it was largely unknown in other western countries.
Edit: I just remembered Shinchan, another anime that is huge in Spain but not very popular elsewhere.
