Only vaguely related to the subject, a wonderful 10' fairytale film for the kids, made in USSR: Ezītis miglā (Hedgehog in the fog) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPS7tKJNj9M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPS7tKJNj9M . Enjoy!

As a kid growing up in USSR I remember this cartoon, it was one of the most dreadful cartoons they could show on TV.

  "Nu, Pogodi" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8uFylzinW0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8uFylzinW0 ) is more popular I guess, but "Hedgehog in the fog" has its own kind of charm...

    "Nu, Pogodi" is "Tom and Jerry" on steroids ;)

    As a Romanian who grew up in the '80s and '90s I also have to say that "Nu, Pogodi" was very much liked in these parts of Europe. Bonus points for this excellent Elektronika game on which I spent many, many hours as an 11-12 year old: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGy14lwf_LQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGy14lwf_LQ . Later edit: Damn it, because nostalgia has kicked in and we're talking about Eastern European animation, I also have to give a big thumbs-up for the Bulgarian National Television's opening sequence of its daily cartoon show from back in the '80s-'90s, an example (of many) being this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YLmLx53ZvM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YLmLx53ZvM , the Polish Lolek and Bolek (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yiiULpdnVrY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yiiULpdnVrY) and the Romanian Balanel and Miaunel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_F2IVgjasc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_F2IVgjasc)

  The most dreadful? That would be "Barefoot Gen" they were running on TV and making children watch in cinemas in the late 80s and early 90s.

    That is one cartoon I've never heard of before. We are talking about USSR not Japan right?

That's not a kid's cartoon though. I never "got" it until I was well into my 20s. But it is widely heralded as a breakthrough for its animation style and overall stylistics.

This one is in Latvian (author of the animation is Latvian). Here is one in Russian with English subs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCsJZV7aCdY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCsJZV7aCdY
