Nora Valkyrie 461 Posted June 6, 2012 My first anime was the orginal Yu-Gi-Oh which I really loved as a kid (I remember waking up early when I was five to watch a new episode). Then came Sailor Moon which got me to learn more about anime. But I was truly never excited about anime till I watched Code Geass. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Queen Tery 4,591 Posted June 8, 2012 (edited) The first anime I ever watched was, probably, Pokemon. From there, I eventually watched Yu-Gi-Oh, Digimon, DragonBall Z, and Yu Yu Hakusho. I watched plenty of Toonami and saw many other anime, such as Gundam, Rurouni Kenshin, and BoBoBo-Bo-BoBoBo. I didn't like any of those. I started watching Naruto, but lost track of it and stopped watching anime, although at the time, I was kind of young and I didn't know of them as anime. I just considered them cartoons. It wasn't until freshmen year in high school that I made a bunch of friends who were into anime, at the time, mostly Naruto. So, I got back into Naruto and then eventually got into Bleach, Death Note, Soul Eater, FullMetal Alchemist, Shin-Chan, D. Gray Man, etc. Edited June 8, 2012 by Ertyx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A mystery 346 Posted June 8, 2012 The first anime I ever saw was Pokemon. The one that got me hooked though was Tsubasa. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob 5,571 Posted June 8, 2012 I would say Pokemon, DBZ, and Sailor Moon, but unfortunately, Naruto was the first anime that made me look for anime on the internet back in 2005. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CardCaptorDeadpool 386 Posted June 8, 2012 I used to love Anime! I think it would've been xXxholic that got me into it! I kinda stopped watching a couple years ago Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weiss 8,279 Posted December 25, 2012 Probably Pokemans, Yugioh or DBZ. I watched them all when I was really young too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Birth by Chawklet 40 Posted January 11, 2013 I want to say Sailor Moon, but when I watched it I didnt know it was an anime. Just noticed that the art looked different than the other shows. I think the first show I heard classified to me as an anime was Digimon (during Fox Kids Anime Invasion). So after I found thats probably what Sailor Moon was I tried to track it down again. And after that came my Dragonball Z obsession DRAGON DRAGON ROCK THE DRAGON!!! which lasted a LONG time. So I guess Ill have to say Digimon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iamkingdomhearts1000 1,170 Posted January 11, 2013 Dragon Ball Z, Pokemon or Naruto :]. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tigerruss 576 Posted July 25, 2013 Probably the first anime I ever seen was one of these three Voltron, Speed Racer, or Pokemon. Though what got me into anime was a friend recommending One Piece, I was desiring to watch something so I watched the first 200 episodes on Hulu. At that point I would have had to wait until hopefully Hulu would go there again, or purchase all the missing episodes... (or the third option I shall not mention) Either way I was now a bit more curious than I was about anime, so next time I ran out of things to watch I decided to look at what anime I could watch. I think my next anime was Baka to Test/Baka and Test. It was a fun comedy. Then I watched Tiger and Bunny, a nice take on the superhero genre. (both of those shows were during their original runs) And before I knew it anime was slowly and slowly taking up more of what I chose to watch. And oddly enough even though I started on a Shonen, some of my favorites series have been Shojo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lalalablah 1,538 Posted July 25, 2013 Pokemon or Naruto... But then I stopped watching anime. I might be getting back into it after coming to this website, I've already started watching one show a friend suggested! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KHfan4 106 Posted July 25, 2013 Well technically my first anime was Inyuasha, but I didn't start liking anime until I watched Wolfs Rain, which by far, is the best Anime I've ever watched. Anime is so unique, so I wasn't watching just one, I had to watch like 5 at the time which probably lines up with Fullmetal Alchemist and Vampire Knight.

Dio Brando 5,810 Posted July 26, 2013 Mmmmm,I watched a lot of anime in my childhood and I can't really specify. But If I think there is an anime that really got me to become an anime fan,then it has to be:Pokemon,Dragon Ball Z , Detective Conan (named Case Closed in America I think)and Dragon Quest Dai no Daibouken Those four animes,I wathced the ever living shit outta them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shulk 8,623 Posted July 28, 2013 I'm not really a big anime fan, but my first was Pokemon. Naruto's what got me into the genre, though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reyn 1,755 Posted October 18, 2013 Dragon Ball Z. I saw Kai on Nicktoons, during the fight with Great Ape Vegeta, and i was instantly hooked. But it wasnt really until i started going to the anime club at my library last year that i started looking into other great animes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ultimus Grid 546 Posted October 18, 2013 Dragonball Z (not Kai) started it all for me. Though it was the main one, there was also Digimon, Yughioh, Ravemaster, Zatchbell, and Bobobo-bobo-bobo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Noobles 301 Posted October 18, 2013 My first ever anime (except Pokemon) was Nabari no Ou. It was something a friend suggested and it was alright. But it didn't strive me towards anime. To be honest, Sword Art Online was the one that made me touch the surface of the wonderful fantasy world. Looking back, I had no idea why I was so overly hyped up about Sword Art Online. It's alright and I think slightly overhyped worldwide. What's funny is that I saw Kirito kiss Asuna gif signature on KH13. Don't remember who it belonged to. But I was so curious what it was about and found SAO. Now, I think it's safe to say I'm an anime/manga fan. Didn't really start fully watching a lot of anime until this past Spring/Summer season. 13 Animes finished...so many more watching now and so many more to go~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteCrow 55 Posted October 18, 2013 One Piece and Fullmetal Alchemist. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackAceZero777 77 Posted October 18, 2013 Can't really say...Back when TV was good, there were a lot animes on that I watched...I just knew that I loved them....Maybe the two that got me into it fully was Digimon and Pokemon...I remember i use to call it, "Those Japanese Cartoons."
