Where did /a/ first watched anime from?
Any pal remember watching Digimon, Escaflowne, Dragon Ballz, Pokimon... between 4 and 6PM on this one?

I forgot YugiOh and Sailor moon. Damn this channel was teh shit.
For me it was Pokemon, Digimon, and Yugioh on pic related. Though at the time I didn't know that anime was even a thing. I just thought of them as cartoons that were more interesting for reasons I did not understand at the time.

I actually thought they were American cartoons as opposed to the cartoons I would see in Yurope before.
I always thought that the shit like inflating heads, eyes, mouths and other anime dramatic effects were garbage.
Yet I still watched it.

I was young enough at the time that I didn't really care. I've had shit taste for a majority of my life.
>>134795871
I should add that my first time watching anime and knowing in my mind "this is anime" was Bleach's Soul Society arc on Adult Swim, at which point I thought that Bleach was the best shit ever. While I now realize how shit Bleach is, it is sadly my official gateway anime. I was in 10th grade at the time.

YTV was the best, it was such a big part of my childhood.
Don't forget Inuyasha at 9:30pm. Sometimes followed by Witch Hunter Robin, which I never ended up watching as a kid.

Shiiiieeet. I don't think WB kids even exists any more.
>you will never rush home to watch afternoon cartoons again

You shouldn't feel bad anon. Bleach was also my first 'conscious' dig into anime back in 2009.
I don't think even 10% of /a/ started watching anime with something else than shonen.

Yeah, but I was that guy that would ask everyone they knew if they watched X. If they didn't I would tell them to watch X, and if they did I would talk to them about nothing but X.

Does it still feature anime so much or is it just American sitcom crap now?
>>134796413
I haven't even checked it in the better part of a decade.
Apparently the Bionix block was cancelled in 2010, so I assume anime was on the way out leading up to that.
>>134795392
Locomotion or local tv, I don't remember exactly what it was but I do remember watching lots of anime back then. Flint the Time Detective, Red Baron, Evangelion, Yu-gi-oh, Pokemon, Digimon, and many others I sadly can't remember, like one about some sexy police woman or other about some ecchi comedy with elfs and warriors.

Same here, InuYasha on Bionix really had me hooked.

A German channel called RTL 2. They used to air anime like Ranma, Doremi or Monster Rancher alongside the usual stuff like Pokemon or DBZ from lke 11:00 to 18:00.
It's truly sad to see what happened to that channel in the past years.
Public service television aired SF Saiyuki Starzinger.

And come back when you can express yourself with more than buzzwords, faggot.
I was like 4 year old watching scary shit at night like gundam and inuyasha in China
I'm pretty sure it's their fault I started fapping at 8 years old
>>134795392
German RTL2 with superior dubs

>Beyblade every day after school
Fuck yeah
>>134797625
Are you Chinese, or Amerifat?
>>134798709
>watching the show afternoon
>playing the game at school
We would even improvise arenas with those salt boxes they keep in the courtyards.
You had to have a branded beyblade but poorfags would try to shove their mundane rip offs every once in a while.

it was great in the 90s-2005, but 2006-2008 sucked and led to it dying

Ameriteen sitcoms. Ameriteen sitcoms ruining everything.
Pokemon always aired as part of this
>>134799000
Just like what happened to cartoon network
