    Same as Zuki ^_^ Fruits Basket was the first anime I fell in love with. My brother got me a volume of the manga for Christmas once, so I looked the anime up. And I've been an aninerd since!

    Well I watched Ronin Warriors, Noozles, Maya The Bee, Little Bits, The Adventures of The Little Koala back when I was about twelve to fifteen years old. I didn't even know those were anime, so I really didn't count those.

    And then I seen Pokemon. Again, I didn't know about anime, so I didn't even know it was from Japan. Until I read it about it in a magazine, then I knew.

    And then I watched Digimon, Dragonball Z, and Sailor Moon. And I realized that these shows are from Japan too. And I was blown away, I been hooked ever since. Thinking that anime is better than American cartoons. XD I truly believe that now.

    So it was Pokemon, Digimon, Dragonball Z, and Sailor Moon for me. =D

    Pokemon and Sailor Moon. Especially the latter.

    I had been swimming at a friend's house, and I was watching TV while drying off, and that hapened to be on Cartoon Network. Since I came in in the middle of an episode, I had no clue what was going on.

    I quickly became devoted to SM, and anything else from the Land of the Rising Sun.

    The first anime I ever watched was Dragon Ball Z, but I didn't even know what anime was back then. The series that REALLY got me into anime and reading manga was Naruto.

    Yu Yu Hakusho was probably when I first realized what 'Anime' was...

    But Fruits Basket was probably what got me into the anime scene...... I don't really remember, but it's a race between Yu Yu Hakusho and Fruits Basket for sure. I know Dragon Ball Z and Digimon, and Pokemon, and Sailor Moon- all the older series I watched and somewhat liked, but I didn't know that they were 'anime'. Thought they were just cartoons. xD

    Case Closed or Detective Conan as it's called in Japan. I watched it on Adult Swim all the time and I loved it so much. I'd seen other animes before but this one really made me want to search for more. I was so sad when they took it off the air D=>.

    I watched anime before I knew it was anime. XD Like Pokemon, Digimon, Rohan Warriors... etc.
    But the first anime that I knew was an anime was Gundam Wing. And it opened the portal for everything else.

    My brother was watching Grappler Baki, but that didn't actually interest me. Although I looked at the site where he was getting em and just by luck I found Beck, Air(the novel) anime and Bleach. So those three got me into it. I don't really like bleach as much as it first started though, because it has gotten repetitive.

    Same here.

    SailorMoon amused me for a while. So did DBZ and Pokemon. :o

    I quit watching DBZ after the Buu saga.
    Oh yeah, I watched Sailor Moon, Pokemon, Digimon and DBZ, but didn't know that is was anime. I also quit DBZ after the Buu saga when it took CN forever to show it... they kept starting over at the beginning...
