What was your first anime?

[Kishijoten]

When you were young what was your very first anime show that you watched or played. And give a reason why that was your very first anime show you chose to watch or play. [if] you remember why though.
If not you don't have to give a reason.

I believe it was Sailor Moon. Reason being it was the first thing on TV when I woke up in the morning before going to school. Hardly remember anything from it these days though lol.

 

[Esper]

I think it was Ranma ½, but it might have been Sailor Moon or Fushigi Yuugi. A friend had copies of all of those and I'd go to her house to watch 'em. Actually, it could have been a lot of things. I really don't remember.

Probably Dragonball Z, though I didn't like it initially (and stopped liking it after a while). After that, there was Pokemon, then Outlaw Star, and then "Cardcaptors," which despite having one of the worst localizations in history, still managed to be entertaining to me when I was young (though I must stress this is ONLY because the source material is so absolutely wonderful; Cardcaptor Sakura is, by far, my favorite anime, and what they did to it with the dub is unforgivable). After that, I stopped watching for a while when I went into my "cartoons are for kids" phase, though.

I have come to recall only a cute little anime called Sailor Moon or some other feminine anime. That is probably the first anime I have ever seen, mainly because I do not recall anything other than cute school girls... Maybe it was Weddding Peach...

Don't call me a pervert, my older sister was the one who had control over the TV.

 

[mukkamukka]

I believe my one was pokemon because that was the first movie that i remember watching as a little kid. Ever since that movie io just love watching, reading and playing pokemon

 

[Tyrantrum]

I can't quite remember... I know it wasn't Pokémon. It might have been Sailor Moon or Dragon Ball Z, back when I had no clue wtf Anime even was. lol

 

[Swift!]

Pokemon or Dragon Ball Z. I can't remember which one I saw first, but they were both around the same time.

 

[IrGamer]

My very first anime was dragonball z then the saga changed to0
Dragonball GT!!

 

[Alternative]

I never really got into Dragon Ball Z or any of their franchise.

The first anime I watched though was Sailor Moon, back when it was good and only had the first 5 characters in it. Only because I was about 6 or 7 and it was the first thing on TV back then.

 

[donavannj]

Probably Pokemon... or something like Transformers (yes, I do believe that this came from Japan). Unless Power Rangers had an animated series in addition to the live action series.

 

[Zodiac Realm]

dragon ball z was the first and last....i haven't really bothered watching any others.

 

[Satoshi Ookami]

For sure Pokémon.
But if I don't consider Poke+Digimon.
Then it was FMP or Captain Tsubasa.

 

[Elite Overlord LeSabre™]

Pokemon or the butchered "Cardcaptors" on Kids WB on Saturday. Because it was on TV on Saturday morning.

My first "serious" anime: Ah! My Goddess. DVD impulse buy at Wal-Mart. I actually bought vol. 3 first because that was the only one they had in the store at the time.

 

[digi-kun]

I'm pretty sure it'd have to be Doraemon, though it was in Chinese.

The first anime I became aware of being an anime was "Cardcaptors" (stupid dub >>)

 

[.Missingno]

I Believe it was Dragon Ball Z But I Could Be wrong it was either it or Sailor Moon or I Can't remember the name of it but it was a very good show

 

[Azumi]

...oh, Pokemon, why did you have to take the place as my first anime?! (Not that I hate it, I just hoped it was another anime...)
Then again, maybe it was Dragonball Z... I remember watching it and totally not understanding what it was about... XDDDD

My first serious anime, AFTER knowing what an anime was, was... POKEMON AGAIN?! *headdesk*

 

[The Apprentice™]

It was Pokemon I'm 100% sure. ^^ If I had never seen it before I wouldn't be here today. Thank god I turned on the TV when I was younger. ^^

 

[Hagumi]

Uh, either Sailor Moon or Cardcaptor Sakura; I can't remember which one I watched first. They were usually on after I had school, and I found it them a bit more interesting than most of the other children's programmes that were on. ( =3=) After I learned what anime was, my first serious anime was Katekyo Hitman REBORN!.

 

[Graceful]

Pokemon. the First Anime I took interest i was Sailor Moon. I watched it up 'till the 3rd series, because Usagi's/Serena's Voice Got Really Annoying.
