Is there a trope for this? "Illiterate Universe": Usually seen in animation. We never see writing of any kind. In the odd chance a newspaper or something shows up, it is covered in scribbles, gibberish, or other weird symbols. This is usually because of two things: The producers want to export the show to many different countries, or because the outsourced foreign animators have too much difficulty drawing it. Example: Almost every DIC cartoon.
