I don't remember any of it but apparently I used to watch anime on TV in Japan in the mid 90s. The first ones I remember though are Speed Racer, Pokemon, and DBZ. The former on VHS tapes I had and the latter two on TV in the US.

First manga: either Pokespec or Love Hina (or a Volume of Alita)
Ryder Martinez
FMA 2003
Joshua Phillips
I grew up in the states so I got exposed to the usual suspects growing up, dragonball etc. Dont really count those though since they didn’t kick off the obsession and I lost interest around the start of middle school. Around 18-19ish being a bored neet I got exposed to papa kiki while trying to find a site to rewatch gundam.
Dominic Jones
The little lord Faunteroy.
Yeah really.
Evan Reed
Something that aired on TV, but I'm not sure what it was.
Maybe it was Pokemon, or Dragon Ball, or Detective Conan, or Ranma 1/2.
The first ones I remember looking up on the Internet are Death Note, and Girls Bravo
Jason Green
After that it was probably
Daigunder (pic related) also on Animax
A bunch of more Animax stuff
Pokemon
Beyblade
Digimon
Dragon Ball Z
Shin Chan
Doraemon
One Piece
Naruto
Bleach
A bunch more stuff, and it's still all just stuff I saw on TV
Robert Taylor
It was either Shaman King or Pokémon. I don't really remember.

Probably this or Doraemon/shin-chan
Levi Long
Cardcaptor Sakura
Ayden Jackson
Probably Speed Racer, Dragon Ball or Sailor Moon, I don't really remember.

Technically Dragonball Z, but I don't count it because every kid and their dog watched it when Cartoon Network still ran re-runs of it. I consider my first Familiar of Zero. Back then I saw Louise as a sexy older sister type. Now I see her as a cute daughteru. It's a very strange feel.
Leo Hall
Sailor Moon. It was 1995.
I remember being 5 years old and waking up extra early to watch Looney Toons and catching Sailor Moon sometimes. It blew my child mind that these weird Chinese cartoons actually had continuity. When I tuned in after Nephlite's death and saw Molly actually dealing with losing her boyfriend.
When something happened tu Bugs Bunny, everything was back to normal by the next episode. SM was the first time I saw a character die in any kind of fiction. Sometimes I wish I never got into anime.
Hunter Cox

Alexander Martin
Sailor Moon on TV in the late 90s
I liked the cute girls and monster battles but actually the best thing about it for me was the humor. Shit was wholesome.

Forgot what it's called but I distinctly remember it being about a team of super-powered animals and with a mouse as the leader and there was a chicken that was a human(?) girl for some reason.

When I was around 5 and was still in Hong Kong, I remember watching Chibi Maruko-chan, Doremon and Crayon Shin-chan. I didn't know anime and cartoon were two different things until I moved to US at around 1997. Then I remember watching Yu yu hakusho, Sailor Moon and Sister Princess around early 2000 with my older sister who used to download anime. Now she has long moved on from it and I'm still a bonafide weeb. Those were old shows that I no longer watch but they are precious memories to me.

US, NY. I'm working in a hospital now as a patient escort and we both visited HK a few years ago and made up our minds to never live there just because of the culture barrier. I don't regret ever getting into anime because I feel it was inevitable due to circumstances.

This is super popular in my country for some unknown reason.

It was lupin the 3rd however it was in France which is where things got weird. So other there the show was renamed Edgar le detective cambrioleur (edgar the detective thief) and even had its own original op.

We are getting absorbed back to China and we are seeing more and more steps being taken on that path with every passing day, HK used to be the last truly "free" city in China and our time is apparently up.
You enjoy yourself out there, if I am not being tied down by my family I would have bailed out of HK while I still can.

You should be happy that Yea Forums is the least affected major board on Yea Forums after all that we have been through together.
Boards like Yea Forums, Yea Forums and /int/ are barely recognizable from what they were used to be 10 years ago.

June just started. Kids have more access to internet and phones so more underage kids will show up on this damnable place with every passing year.

Not just in Sweden. Denmark, Norway, and Finland. Baka BT had a torrent for the whole anime with English, Finnish, AND Swedish subtitles. Blew my mind.
Bentley Ward
Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh were the first anime I watched
Death Note was the first anime I watched seriously
Ryan Fisher
Probably the VHS fist of the north star 'film' which I learned later was the first series compressed into 90 minutes or so. Didn't make a whole lot of sense.
Also watched ninja scroll on VHS and some other things I've forgotten that would sometimes be on the sci-fi channel.
Pretty much didn't watch anything until a friend got me into death note when it was all the rage.
Watched hundreds of series since then... Probably damaged me more than I like to admit ;_;
Brody Rivera
Pokemon or Dragon Ball Z.
Jack Martin
That and Green Green were the first anime I remember watching online.
Connor Powell

I used to know weebs that loved Naruto and they were the biggest cancerous weeb faggots I'd ever met.

The one that made me discover anime as a unique thing was Sailor Moon. I remember waking up really early one morning and seeing it by chance. After that I had to figure out why it was so different from everything else.
Jaxson Diaz
Did you get Sailor Moon and DBZ too?
That was like the big 5 for kids back in the day.
Christopher Lopez
If I have the luxury to choose a place to move to you bet my ass I would move to Japland before any other country, I am N2 at the moment but I am just not sure about getting a job there. Thanks anyways.

Love Hina and Hellsing which were burned on some CDs and labeled with sharpie. Neither of my older brothers remember doing it but my oldest brother watches titty anime now so I know it was him.
Mason Taylor
Detective Conan
Kayden Price
We did get Sailor Moon but for some reason I thought it was too girly even though I loved Cardcaptor Sakura. As far as I know DBZ wasn't on UK TV back then and I've still never watched it.
Nicholas Anderson
Do you remember the Litl Bits too?! I can remember watching it just like it was yesterday
Eli Sanchez
DBZ and Pokemon aren't really valid. Literally everyone watched them on TV when they were kids. I think the point of the thread is when did you go out of your way to start watching anime or what show really piqued your interest.
Jace Bell
> I also brought a Liger Zero and thought it was pretty cool.
When did you get it? The cheapest I can find one for now is 100$.
Jayden Moore
Started here, but now I'm all about the psychological thriller genre and can't enjoy most shounenshit now.
Do you love Lain?
Samuel Perez
Carson Howard
Tokyo ghoul
Jacob Rodriguez
A long time ago at around elementary or middle school. It was different back then and I'm not into models right now.
Matthew Hughes
You can do it if you keep practicing Davido-kun. It's important to communicate with native speakers too, you will learn a lot that way.
Angel Anderson
Lain is even worse than shounen
Matthew Perez
>We did get Sailor Moon but for some reason I thought it was too girly
I had 2 older sisters. It used to piss me off because in my country they played it before DBZ. So you had to watch that boring shit first.
Levi Butler
I know I watched some of it, but I don't really remember it as much. They had Maya the Bee too and I don't think I cared about it.
Not anime, but I still fucking love David the Gnome and own DVDs of it.
Jack Lopez
Pengu.
Henry Peterson
Shounenfags don't have the IQ to understand Lain, it seems.
Michael Walker
Pokemon. Some of my friends were into DBZ, but I wasn't interested in it for one reason or another. The first anime I really got into was Trigun. Besides Fox Kids, there was really just Adult Swim.
Lincoln Sanchez
People with an IQ lower than 100 think that Lain is intelligent and deep
Jose Collins
This.
Joshua Taylor
A toss-up between DBZ (Ocean Group) and Sailor Moon, back when they were on TV.
Alexander Lopez
Escaflowne my nigga. The scene where Van goes apeshit and decimate pretty much all the Zaibach knights marked my young lad mind forever.
Ryan Sullivan
Doraemon, though the first one I think I took seriously was Code Geass
Hunter Cooper
Kimba the white lion on VHS.
Pretty much the earliest memories of mine, watching VHS in the rental shop where my mother worked.
Caleb Rivera
I'm pretty sure it was this shit.
Ryder Powell
Kevin Brooks
The Vision of Escaflowne, which for some reason aired on Fox Kids a long time ago.
Gave me a lifelong obsession with angel wings.
Mason Jackson
First serious anime I watched was either NGE when I was a kid (was with an older friend) or either Spirited Away or Princess Mononoke in my high school Japanese class.
I came to Yea Forums thinking about Miyazaki films and then discovered 5cm Per Second around 2009/2010.
Been an anime hobbyist since then.
Isaiah Peterson
Ants first
Jaxon Lee
Only correct answer
Jackson Nelson
At least it is not the '69 series.
Brody Bennett
This and Kimba were both airing at the same time in Australia in the mid '60s
Cameron Roberts
I don't remember, some shit on tv prob

Oh, wait, no, it was undoubtedly My Neighbor Totoro. My mom got it for VHS and I watched it when I was very young. I remember being terrified of the dust bunnies.

Camden Sanchez
That reminds me. I Totoro was probably the first anime I saw. My 7th grade social studies teacher had a copy of the VHS he'd gotten in Japan and showed it to us. There were no subs, and he called it Dodolo, but it was some good shit.
Nicholas Campbell
Probably Granzort, on tapes at a friend's house when I was like 5 or something. Then all the toonami shit on TV like dragonball, sailormoon etc.
Asher Bennett

Hudson Johnson
bleach. i only watched up til mexicanhell arc before i realised it was pretty much the same over and over.

Zachary Thompson
I like pretentious arthouse now but I didn't love Lain much
the atmosphere and direction was great, but it was just too incoherent for me, felt like the director was just doing random cryptic imagery for its own sake
Hunter Wood
HunterCHADxHunterCHAD :)))
My friends on reddit said it's pretty good and I definitely agree. Since then I watched 50 animes and it's still the best one.
James Moore
>There were no subs
How did you watch it then?
We had Miyazaki films during post exam periods.
Liam Ramirez
He just put the movie in, and we watched it raw. It's a simple enough story that you can figure out the general story without understanding the dialogue.

My dad rented this from blockbuster when I was 6 or 7 years old... Surprisingly he let me watch the whole thing with him.

Some Meisaku stuff and Pierrot majokko when I was little. I still maintain meisaku genre as one of the pinnacles of human civilization.
Carter Foster
Mazinger? Captain Tsubasa? Or you know... Thundercats if that counts (the original was produced, voiced and whatnot by Americans but the animation was done in japan)
Austin Young
Pokemon was the first one I saw.
Inuyasha was the first one I saw that made me realize anime was something different than the other cartoons I'd see on TV.
Zero no Tsukaima was my first non-dubbed-for-TV shounen/kids show.
James Brown
dragon ball and pokemon.
can´t remember which came first

it was this 80s anime that had really trippy graphics and spaceships and shit. I was like... two.

The Fist of the North Star, when I was about 6 or 7. The '86 movie where Kenshiro loses to Raoh at the end. It was the raddest, bloodiest thing I'd ever seen. And possibly the first story I'd ever been exposed to where the hero doesn't triumph at the end, but things still work out.
Isaac Allen
I watched half of Infinite Stratos, which was alright. But I’ve always been obsessed with fighter jets, and I found an old OVA...
Mason Gray
So the first anime I finished was Area 88. After that, I watched Sentou Yousei Yukikaze, claimed the titular character as my waifu, and never looked back.
My waifu is still better than yours.

Anime that brought me back: Rinne No LaGrange.
Old as fuck and currently enjoying Bocchi & Senko-san.

I think it was Angel Beats if you count the first anime I sought out, before that it'd be Pokémon.

Teen years: Death Note, Naruto, Steins;Gate
Collegue years (Manga): Hunter x Hunter, Bakuman, Berserk
Joshua Sullivan
Damn you are old if the Inuyasha fandom made you leave. Don't blame you though, I got roped into this through my fujo sister so I started off with Ruroken, Ranma 1/2, and Inuyash all the old yaoi fodder. I was too young to understand how awful and cringy she was at the time, I distinctly remember her having a deviantart account with d00m and t3h in the name, But to this day if I mention anime to her she looks like she's having fucking NAM flashbacks.
Evan Stewart

I lol'd. Guys like you were alright cats, but damn son, them fujos. I'm over it now, but at least your sis grew out of it. Just leave the animus to expert weirdos like us. What are you watching this season?

TECHNICALLY Pokemon/Digimon/Card Captor Sakura since I saw all them as a kid. Some of my earliest memories are me watching Pokemon with my siblings.
Inuyasha was the first anime I watched that I knew was an anime, if that makes sense.

I remember catching the tail end of a horror sci-fi film on the SCiFi cable channel circa 1996-97 which was basically the 'Thing' on a ship. What's crazy is that I still remember a scene that was pretty much etched in my brain as a guy's face melted off his head.
20 years later I do a search and find that the name of the OVA is Lily Cat (western release anyway)
Ayden Rogers
My first one was Bakugan when I got into elementary school. But the first anime that I watched intentionally without thinking it was a cartoon was Citrus. It got me interested into anime. (it was random summer day and in my recommendations was a video "Citrus from pornography to perfection" and I had to watch the video and that s how I became a weeb.)
Angel Miller
Does Totoro count?
Henry Rivera
Technically this, but the first anime I really watched was Bleach

English-dubbed shows on Toonami. When I was really young they had yuyu hakusho, some Gundam show, and Dragon Ball Z. But bacl then everybody watched anime because it was what was on TV. The first anime I watched as a weeb was Naruto subbed.
Justin Cook
The absolute first that I remember would be back to back Hamtaro and Sailor Moon every day before school in like grade 1. The first series that I actively seeked out on my own accord was Lucky Star

I’m pretty sure I watched Astral Boy around the time I was in my early twenties. Ever since I’ve been fascinated by the anime genre although I fell off watching for a long time. It’s changed a lot over the years but to this day this series holds a special place in my heart. My favorite anime however would probably be Bebop. It really blew my mind seeing something like that for the first time and got me back into anime as a whole.

Not including butchered nonsense like Speed Racer, Heidi or Nauusica, it’d be Transformers. Deal with it.
Or for the late night anime you’re thinking of, Project A-ko and it’s been downhill since then.

Not counting the stuffs that aired, like Dragon Ball and YuGiOh. It's Guilty Crown.
