I used to believe that you could become a real Pokemon trainer on your 10th birthday. Being the Pokemon lover I was, I got really excited for my 10th birthday to get my own starter pokemon and pokedex! When i actually turned 10, I got disappointed because I didn't become a real pokemon trainer but I did get a toy pokedex and pokemon figures. It wasn't the same, though.

My Sister Zoe Saw The Lion King.
She Said That At Night The Lion Come Out And Sing.
I Told Her It was A Cartoon, But She Still Think That a was Real.

My dad used to watch "Davey and Goliath" and he had NO IDEA it was a religious show. He just thought it was just a Sunday cartoon.

Molly

After My Sister Watched An Episode For Kate And Min Min She Believed That If She Said Her Teddy Bear's Name It Would Come To Life. I Told Her A Just A Cartoon

I used to be skeptical about non-disney fairytale characters, since their name was the same but their appearance was diferent. I didn't know copyrights existed and I wanted all fairytale characters to be homogeneous to Disney's version xD

You know how in kid's magazines they have sections, where they show things kids sent into them, like stories and drawings. I drew a picture, stuck it in the magazine and waited to see if it would be published the next time I opened it.

When I was 6 or 7, I grew up in that generation of Dragonball Z and Sailor Moon, so not only did I believe that if you learn martial arts you can utilize flying, and energy blasts, that if you believe hard enough and "train" that when you turn 14, you can become a sailor scout....Also only in japan did Pokémon and Digimon exist (they didn't coexist in the same area however), and you could only receive a partner if you lived there. So my pikachu plush was the closest I got to having a "real" Pokémon. I watched too much TV as a kid lol

I used to believe that the reason the Simpson characters were yellow was because they were made of macaroni and that's why Bart looks wierd. It took awhile but when I saw the Simpsons movie I realized they were people.

my brother told me that cartoons were real people that got surgery to make their eyes big and round and then they were sent to live in the cartoon world for the rest of their lives.

Years ago, my brother (5 years old at the time) kicked a mushroom that had been growing in our yard. I told him that he just murdered a bunch of Smurfs. He went crying to my parents about it. We grew up with Smurfs on the Saturday morning cartoons. I always think of the Smurfs when I see a mushroom in my yard.

I used to think that cartoons took place all in the same day, that's why the characters never changed their clothes.

I used to believe that the Sailor Soldiers from Sailor Moon were actual sailors, navigating the galaxy in giant ships.

After watching several cartoons on TV, I thought you could laugh when someone has an accident.

One day in class, one of my classmates was sitting in his desk and it tipped over and he fell down. I broke out laughing, and I got in big trouble.

I thought Spongebob Squarepants was a piece of Swiss cheese.

I used to believe that when I was in kindergarten, cartoon characters were real. I wanted
to live with them and some characters have power that was awesome.
