Might want to mark this thread as NSFW in the thread title.  Thank you to those with the courtesy to hide such things with warning spoilers, but they still load with the page.

Moomins!
I've always wondered how popular Moomin is outside Finland, Sweden and Japan?

Moomins are quite loved by kids in Poland, at least 90's/early 00's kids :P

Except that mountainous purple thing we called 'Buka'. Fuck yourself Buka D;

Kafka and Haruki Murakami (turn on sound!) when it comes to literature:

I also quite like the impressionists and early expressionists (not the Germans, though; they're just depressing); also El Greco, the prophet of modern art:

Braque, Picasso etc.

This happened to me once: I was walking through a museum and saw a Cezanne picture I liked in the impressionists section. So I thought, "I like Cezanne."
Then I walked for a bit and got to the expressionists and saw a picture by Braque that I liked. So I thought, "I like Braque."
And then I took a closer look at the painting's description, and went back to the other painting and took a closer look at its description, and I thought: "Apparently, I like southern France."
