movies/tv Your First Time watching a Anime.

[MarcelineA 126]

If Yu Gi Oh and Pokemon counts then I was in love with it ^-^ However if you mean non-mainstream anime then I was skeptical especially since my friend made us watch it in another language thinking that reading the subtitles and body language was enough ._. obviously she was the only one enjoying it lol (not to mention I've seen them in english too and I still find them complicated IMAGINE in another language I was soooo lost XD)

"Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind" (though the North American version was called "Warriors of the Wind" then) was the first anime that I ever did see; I don't think I'd even started kindergarten.  Thanks, topic, for making me feel old!!!! xD  I also saw the original Voltron early on.  And some weird thing where some naked lady randomly appeared in the skeleton of a dragon??!?  Or I just imagined that last one.

You know, thinking about movies vs. tv shows, Scamper the Penguin might've been my first anime. That or Serendipity the Pink Dragon.

By the Nine that is going WAY back! WAY before I knew what 'anime' was.

Since pokemon is considered a half-anime I'd have to say naruto. I was obsessed with it.

[Agent505 661]

I believe it might actually have been Sailor Moon. I honestly don't recall.

I don't watch anime all that often and wouldn't really count pokémon as an anime (it is, but it's not...)

 

Fun fact: The most recent anime I watched was the one and only Elfen Lied.

Thanks to my brother, the first anime I ever really watched was "The Dirty Pair". When I was little, I used to swipe his bootleg VHS tapes. I still love Kei and Yuri, and own the series on DVD now.

the first anime i watched was sankarea. i gave up after my first anime watch, but then a year later i started to watch more anime.

I've got no idea if it was Sailor Moon or Dragon Ball that I watched first, but it was definitely one of those two back in the mid 90's. Aside from Pokemon, I never really watched any anime beyond those three, but I've still got fond memories of each of them.

[Frosty Nerd 833]

Pokemon was the first anime I watched. After that, I didn't start watching anime until I watched Digimon when I was a senior in high school. Then I watched Fullmetal Alchemist, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Clannad, Ouran High School Host Club, Amnesia, Wolf's Rain, Dragon Ball, and Dragon Ball Z. I was watching Fairy Tail, but I've been reading Fairy Tail instead. I check three volumes out at my library every 1-2 weeks.

WHAT?! SCAMPER THE PENGUIN IS ANIME?! I did not know that! Okay, that was the first anime I watched! I watched it years before Pokemon, but I don't remember anything about it except that there was a blue penguin and a pink penguin. Heck, I've been trying to figure out for years what that cute penguin movie was even called! I wish I could give you 100 brohoofs for informing me and providing a link!

Well, I can't say Pokemon, because I only watched a bit here and there, so the first anime I watched was Sonic X(the 4kids dub). I can't believe I sat through all 3 seasons. It was dull and boring. I'm not really an anime person and I don't plan on getting into it.

[kelseymarie805 300]

The first one I watched was Spirited Away when I was younger, it was on Cartoon Network randomly one night and look interesting so I watched some of it! :3

[Noire Panzer 3,526]

I'm not gonna count watching a random episode or two of a series but counting an entire series. 

 

Angel Beats! was technically my first series I ever watched that my cousin showed me. Oh my god did I cry and cry liquid pride. There were so many feels with the characters and the story. It was a REALLY good series in my opinion but man dem feels...

Aside from Sailor Moon, I was introduced to Ranma 1/2 in 1998.  After that I went on to watch Slayers, Magic Knight Rayearth, and Fushigi Yuugi.

[PokeBolter 208]

Could it be something that is still running today because my first anime I ever watched was Pokemon Advanced but if it has to be something not running today it was the movie My Neighbor Totoro.

[Crazy Misty 653]

First anime when I was 6 was Yu-Gi-Oh.... shitty 4kids dub ;_;

[Evil_Derpy 64]

I don't remember the first time I watched anime I do know that DBZ was one of first I did watch however

[Blaze Bronson 343]

[Indrid Cold 8]
