Do cartoon characters see each other in the art style or “realistically”?

In Chip and Dale 2022, they explicitly refer to the “upgrade” to 3D rendering from the old painted style (like plastic surgery to them), so I assume they are fully aware of their art style.

Some times it’s part of the plot, like in comics such as Gwenpool and 8-Bit Theater. But usually, from what I notice, how a character perceives the world around is not explained.

Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss have jokes about the art style. Sounds to me that the characters see each other the way we see them.

In Peanuts, all adults would sound like “wah wah, wha wah wha wah wha wah”, to which the children would respond as if they made perfect sense.

Then again, I prefer thinking about your second possibility so I’m going with that one:-).

In Star Trek SNW’s crossover episode with Lower Decks (cartoon), Boimler’s first comment when he meets the crew from SNW is that they look “very realistic”

They see themselves like that but that’s also their reality, they don’t know otherwise.

You occasionally get situations when the animators switch the art style every now and then, but the characters still exist in the same universe, so I wonder if the characters wonder why everything looks slightly different.

Depends on whether the author is breaking the fourth wall or not

Like it or not, it’s not being “brought” here; it already exists here.
