Sailor Moon was my first anime ever, and I think my dad was the one who introduced me. That or I stumbled on it on my own, but I don't remember. The first anime that I know I've been introduced to would be Fruits Basket, and that was from a friend who enjoyed the series.

First anime?

Hehehehe

DBZ!

Sailor Moon, DBZ, InuYasha, and Naruto were my first animes. Unfortunately, that made me an extreme rabid fangirl until I found a brain and started using it. xD;

My very first anime was Speed Racer. *laughs* I thought it was Sailor Moon, but my mother corrected me. My first manga was.. I have no idea...

frogmasterofthefunk 08-04-2009 11:23 PM

It's either Sailor Moon or Pokemon. It's most likely Sailor Moon.

I was introduced to CardCaptor Sakura first, probably. Good times, good times.

My first manga.... Let's see... Oh, right. It was probably Orange Crows. It's not very well known, but
its an amazing series. It's about witches.

I remember dragon ball z...and pokemon XD i didn't even know what anime WAS but i loved it.....

then i saw tenchi and fell in love. haven't seen it in years...
Inuyasha had to have been my first manga....

what about you? what was your first?

I remember seeing Pokemon when I was four. I even had one of thoes silly inflatable pikachu chairs. It didn't last long.:sweat:

Then it was Dragon ball, but I never really got into that one.
After that it was sailor moon and tenchi. I fell in love with both.

Now I watch Tenchi, Sailor moon, Pokemon(still), Bleach, Blood +, Inyuasha and sadly naruto. I read more than I watch though.

Kat Dakuu 08-07-2009 05:17 AM

oh, the first anime probably had to be the whole pokemon, digemon, yugio group. Me and my brothers used to watch the stuff all the time. And DBZ of course!

first manga will always be Fruits Basket. *heart*

My first anime and manga was Sailor Moon. I completely fell in love with this anime. I wanted to be like her. After came Pokemon, Digimon et Cardcaptor Sakura. It's because of them that today anime is my life!!!!

I guess i'd have to say Pokemon and digimon were my first tast of anime. Back then though i had no idea it was anime i just knew i liked it. My first anime that i knew was an anime was inuyasha and wolfs rain. ah good times good times

Himiwari 08-11-2009 03:08 PM

Pokemon, obviously.
Then Sailor Moon or Cardcaptor Sakura.

Eriyu 08-11-2009 11:02 PM

I was so little I can't even remember!

I know I watched Sailor Moon before kindergarten every day. :) So... that was before Pokemon came out... before Kiki's Delivery Service... I know I refused to watch Dragonball Z at first (for no real reason; I was just stubborn), so it probably was Sailor Moon!

garnet_dagger 08-11-2009 11:05 PM

either pokemon, card capter sakura, or hamtaro

redxrose 08-12-2009 12:19 AM

I found Sailor Moon when I was four and I had no Idea it was anime I just loved it. So not really introduced more like discovered . I found out what anime was a little over a year and a half ago so now I'm obsessed. I am a Otaku and proud of it.

Riechan 08-12-2009 12:36 AM

YU YU HAKUSHO!!!

It's still my favorite to this day.

Funny story really. For years I refused to watch anime (minues Kiki's Delivery Service, I loved that as a kid) because the only anime I had been exposed to was Dragon Ball Z and I didn't like the art style (my brother watched it). I refused to watch anime despite the fact that my best friend for four years LOVED anime and manga. Anyways, my new friend when I was in ninth or tenth grade showed me Quizilla and we were playing silly quizes on it, so when I went onto it myself I kept seeing these other things (they were fanfics, I had no idea at the time) and I read one and I thought it was really good. It ended up being one based on Yu Yu Hakusho, although I had no idea it was based on a show at the time. After a while I figure it out, and I look it up and find out that it's based on an anime and I found out that I was pronouncing ever Japanese name or word absolutely wrong, and I read more about the characters, and I read more fanfic and I thought that the story was really cool, so I looked up when the show was on on cartoon network on the weekends, and I would have to sneak into the family room after my grandparents went to bed in order to watch it (I got in trouble a few times for being up too late). Then I started watching more of it, and I found out that the manga of Yu Yu Hakusho was being shown in Shonen Jump, so I checked that out from the library, and I started reading the other manga in it and after a short while I was hooked. It's a very long story that happened mostly by chance, with one thing leading to another. And now I'm a huge otaku that reads manga and watched anime all the time.

As I used to tell my friend, Manga is my Anti-Drug.
