Funny and fantastic or supportive and sympathetic, the best of friends are those that stick by you, no matter what. Look no further than these iconic besties on Cartoon Network who show us that friendship comes in many shapes and sizes.
This International Friendship Day, don’t miss the chance to win some lovely goodies when you participate in our exclusive reader contest, and let’s appreciate our own BFFs even as we enjoy the special qualities of our favourite Cartoon Network personalities.
1. Tom and Jerry
More than friends, these two are frenemies who wouldn’t know what to do without the other! While they have been fighting for years, they also enjoy a unique relationship that has lasted for years, joining forces and even protecting each other whenever the occasion calls for it.
2. Bugs Bunny & Daffy Duck from Looney Tunes
On the surface, Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck may not seem like friends at all – Bugs Bunny’s snide remarks often antagonise Daffy Duck, and usually lead to a passionate outburst. However, their bickering is central to their relationship and they never miss an opportunity to engage in witty banter, much to fans’ delight.
DID YOU KNOW?
The International Day of Friendship was proclaimed in 2011 by the UN General Assembly with the idea that friendship between peoples, countries, cultures and individuals can inspire peace efforts and build bridges between communities.
3. Grizz, Panda and Ice Bear from We Baby Bears
This adorable trio is simply inseparable and proves that ‘friends are the family we choose’. They may be different in species and personalities but they are closer than most blood-related siblings and their complete dedication to keeping their unique family unit intact is the most compelling trait of their relationship.
4. Teen Titans Go!
If there was ever a bunch of mismatched misfits, the entire crew of Teen Titans certainly fit the bill. From team leader Robin and mysterious Raven to the otherworldly Starfire and often-comical Beast Boy, this bunch of young superheroes manage to put their differences aside to support each other through every emotional adolescent drama, while fighting supervillains to boot!
5. Amato and partner robot MechaBot from Mechamato
Sometimes, the most amazing friends can literally fall out of the sky, as young Amato discovers after a prison spaceship crashes on Earth. Forging a unique relationship with MechaBot, who has the ability to mechanise everyday objects into high tech devices, their friendship is the only thing that stands between humans and bad robots. Now streaming on HBO GO!
