>>139346388
wait nevermind, i saw card captor sakura before champloo
Digimon, maybe? If not that then either DBZ or Tenchi or something else from the early years of Toonami.
It was either something on Cartoon network after school, or on WB, It was probably salor moon/monster rancher/CCS/Gundam wing/Dragon ball.
dbz, monster rancher, or tenchi muyo
toonami generation i guess.
>>139346274
Not a bad start
Blue Submarine No. 6
Pokemon or DBZ.
Discounting those, it was either Haruhi Suzumiya or Lucky Star.
DBZ though my first anime knowing it was anime was azumanga
Pokémon for dubbed. Then Digimon, Cardcaptor Sakura, Flint the Time Detective, Beyblade, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Cyborg 009 etc
Tokyo Mew Mew was the first one I watched subbed. Then Death Note, Lucky Star, Wolf's Rain, Vampire Knight etc

>>139346274
Speed Racer.
First anime: Princes Mononoke
First tv show: Samurai Champloo
My parents used to watch Liquid Television when I was very small. My memories of are flashes of scenes of various 80s anime. The earliest I could put a name to would be Eva.
>>139346923
Same, actually. Back when Scifi occasionally aired latenight anime.
>>139346921
I might be
>>139346274
On computer? Dokuro-chan.
The real first one should have been some anime on Locomotion, most likely Evangelion.
>>139346968
newfag
>>139346969
You were too young to remember Galaxy Express 999?
>>139346274
card captor sakura when it was on WB
first one after I knew about what anime was is Inuyasha because some weeb girl in my middle school class was obsessed with it and I wanted to bone her
Shakugan no Shana
>>139347025
It was some G4 block called Anime Unleashed that aired cyberpunk type anime and stuff.
Gatekeepers was one I remember along with Lain.
One-Punch Man.
Cromartie High
>>139346878
this desu
Code Geass
>>139346274
Yu Yu Hakusho.
First thing I ever watched subbed was an episode of Naruto. It didn't feel like a very weeb thing to do because I was watching it with an asian girland we were sharing the headphones.
I think it was One Punch Man. It was a while ago.
InuYasha : ^ )
First Ever: Speed Racer movie
First that got me into anime: Girls und Panzer
Soul eater
>>139347219
That's seems feasible, not sure why the ironic face, in general, everyone here have watched almost every anime that aired on tv when we were kids.
>>139347219
I remember it had nice ending themes.

Renault FT-17 cutest tonk
>>139347325
For real, this thread should be flooded with everything that aired on Adult Swim.
>>139346274
It's either Anpanman or Doraemon. I can't remember. I don't think those count though, so really? Probably Ranma
>>139347325
Because I know how much /a/ dislikes Inuyasha
![PS2HotSpring[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/UrRI7BA.jpg "PS2HotSpring[1].jpg")
I think I was looking for some sorta porn and this came up
To Love-Ru
>>139347439
So what nigger. This isn't about your favorite anime it's about what piece of shit you watched first.
>>139347478
which is why I put the :^)
Android Kikaider or Blue Submarine no. 6
>>139346274
Fuckin' pissed me off.
>>139347496

>>139346274
D-don't fire AP shells b-baka.
Well I remember it was either macross or robotech and it had a yellow cassette tape box with a macross styled fighter on it
>>139346274
FMA 2004 in 2005 when it came out on Adult Swim/Toonami.
>>139346274
ZnT
The god himself.
>>139347219
That was 2002-2004 on Adult Swim.
Good show desu.
Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Pokemon, Digimon, DBZ ect.
But pic related is what got me really into anime
>>139347649
Michael Jordan's anime?
>>139347597
the one on the top
>>139347712
Is it just me or has anime pandered more and more to autistic loli fags these last 6 years?
It seems to have peaked in 2014 hopefully.
I just am irritated I have to sort through countless shows of the same shit loli/high school romcom, to get to one show that is semi-adult.
I guess my first would have been Digimon, and I loved it as a kid, but the one that got me back in early in HS was Death Note, which I watched about the same time as reading F/SN.
>>139347816
Nope loli shows peaked in the 2000's with Ichigo Mashimaro, Minami-ke, Rozen Maiden. These past 6 years have all been about light novel adaptions and battle harems.
Death note
>>139347939
Hmm maybe that's what I meant. I am not autistic so I don't really know what a all the definitions in anime are.
But yeah, what you said sounds accurate.
It just seems like 90% of /a/ is waifufagging, lolis, and generic high school romcom. One look at this thread shows that practically no one's first anime/manga was lolis/harem/high school genre.
I try to stick to decent threads to do my part to kill the cancer.

Tenchi Universe
This woman as Ryoko is forever etched in my mind.
I pity your first anime being Welcome To The NHK, makes a lot of other anime look wank in comparison.
>>139347515
>>139347628
For you two anime could only get better.
>>139346274
Tokyo Mew mew, Magical Doremi, or that Kilari idolshow, leaning towards the former though. They used to be aired on a private tv channel in my country before I even knew to brand them as anime.
>>139346274
Evangelion or Mars' Daybreak when my dad rented anime to watch with the kids. Soul Eater if it's what got you into anime.
>>139346274
Sailor Moon
It was Voltes 5, I think.
Or something like that

Toonami saint seiya long ass time ago, then I remember getting to watch mcguyver once but it was on those channels that's usually scrambled.
>>139346274
Mine actually was Girls und Panzer believe it or not.Unless you count reading Hetalia when I was younger.God I was such a fucking faggot back then
Spirited Away.
>>139346274
DBZ, St. Seya, Inuyasha, CC Sakura, Yu Yu Hakusho, Android 009, Pokemon, Digimon and a bunch of other stuff but these were the main ones that i recall. pretty much all quality stuff, liked every one of these and still do.
On the internet Dokuro chan was one of the first i remember seeing along with Naruto, which i soon dropped because i saw how far ahead the manga was.
>>139350012
>mcguyver
Okay, better leaving this thread or the nostalgia is seriously going to make me feel like shit
>>139350099
FMA (the original anime) was also one my earliest watches on the net.
>>139346274
Angel Beats was my first official anime.
i tried a few others, but couldn't get past the first episode

Why did you ever watch another anime after that shit?

UFO Robot Grendizer
I cried like a little baby when I first used Napster to download its OP
If Pokemon doesn't count, then OreImo.
Hard to believe that was over 5 years ago.
Pokemon/ Dragonball (Z?) as a kid. The first anime I watched online was Death Note.
>>139346436
Locomotion, latin anon?
>>139347053
I'm with this anon here. Not counting stuff like digimon, Pokemon etc it was probably either Saber Marionettes, Ranma or Eva. What a great channel Locomotion was. Animax never lived up to it.
>>139347219
This, still get them nostalgiafeels from hearing the op.

Trigun

Death Note
>>139346274
Pokemon.
>>139346945
No reason you wouldn't count Toonami anime.
Oh wait-

I'm still mad about how there's so little art of kikyo, its like everyone hates her or something
Attack on titan.

The original slut.
>>139346274
Damn really? I feel like NHK would be more enjoyable when you're already far into anime. Then again I could be wrong because it would probably help you relate more to Satou since he starts from the beginning then goes further down the rabbit hole. Still a fantastic anime though.
>>139350404
>Gatcha
Awww shit nigga.
Gatchaman was the shit. My first too. Although I only watched it in the early 1990s as a kid.
>>139346274
Like most anons it was most of the old toonami shows in the 90s. ie DBZ, Gundam Wing, Sailor moon and Tenchi Muyo
>>139347341
I always loved the first and second ending themes and occasionally find myself humming them even after years of not watching the show.
Fullmetal Alchemist streamed at 360p
Though I didn't start "seriously" watching anime until many years later. Then I decided to watch the """""classics""""" and started with Evangelion.
>>139346274
Astroboy. It was after the war, I had some Jap friends over and made me watch their cartoons.
K On
I was never allowed to watch any kind of cartoons as a child so I had to get my introduction from 4chan
I think for me it was howls moving castle. I still rewatch it every now and then.
The Toonami shows from the 90's were what really ingrained my interest for anime at a young age, but I'm pretty sure my first exposure to it was watching the dub of Kiki's Delivery Service when I was probably 5 or so. I also remember my parents renting episodes of Speed Racer from Blockbuster every now and then.
This one, rewatch it every now and then.
>>139346274
My first anime was Saber Marionette J back in the late 90's
As a kid I loved it
As an adult it's kind of a slog
>>139346497
This
The first anime series I watched was Last Exile
>>139348846
>NHK
>anyone underage ever watching this, much less as their first anime
Probs sailor moon or actively seeking is eva, gundam or bleach

I hope you die, sir. Laughing at the lifestory of a humble and depressed shell of a human being, his life put up in lights for all to see his descent into the abyss. He couldn't even enjoy the rewards of his fame and he became even more of a hikikomori.

It wasn't the thunder birds I expected, but it fucking blew me away as a dumb kid.

Mine too, I still love it though, probably nostalgia but eh
yu-gi-oh, on brit TV.
First proper series was Hellsing ultimate
>>139346274
Sword Art Online
Your usual shounen stuff like DBZ.
When I actually got into anime? Back in 2009 with Index and Railgun.
whatever weird anime movies the space channel and teletoon were playing in the early 90s.

>>139346274
Code geass
>>139346274
Not counting dubbed shows like Pokémon and DBZ, the first anime I watched subbed was Naruto back when it first began airing in 2002.
>>139346274
The anime that comments on otaku culture and escapism was your first anime?
Quite ironic.
>>139346368
actually it might be this honestly
>Only 3 people saying Naruto
You all are bloody liers
>>139346274

>>139365359
It's not really about otaku culture, just being a neet in general
it's how i got into anime aswell
2003 fullmetal alchemist is the first I remember.

Code Geass
>>139363771
it was either this or Ah! My Goddess, can't remember which
>>139350175
not him but Elfen Lied was my first as well, it really made me fall in love with anime because it was so weird, now I realize it was shit but I give it the merit to attract newfags and turning them into weeaboo
>>139348315
>no one's first anime/manga was lolis/harem/high school genre
that's because we were normalfags before coming here
>>139348676
italianon?
>>139350042
you still are
>>139351801
Same. It's absolute shit, but one of my favorites, none the less.
Not even sure. I am in my 30's now and watched anime quite a bit in the late 90's and early 00's. I would have to guess Akira or maybe even Dragonball. I know my first hentai was Twin Angels.
I just started watching Anime again this past month after growing tired of other genres. Mainly sticking to action and some more mature themed Anime that isn't action like Parasyte and Erased which I both thought were pretty decent.
>>139346274
Psychic Academy. I don't even know how i managed to take a like on Anime after this show.
>>139369680
>Erased
>mature
don't worry anon, you'll soon find yourself watching cheap music loli idol shows
>>139369804
I didn't think it was overly mature. It just had a good first half that explored some pretty good themes.
>>139346274
It was either Sonic X or Transformers. I was a massive Shadowfag back then and really wanted Maria x Shadow forever. It also really hurt me when Moly was killed off. It also fucked up my little kiddie mind when it was revealed that Cosmo's brain and eyes were hijackedand she'd go blind/deaf if the implants were removed. Nips are pretty cruel, that was too dark for children in a bright and colourful show.
Transformers anime also really got to me in the Alpha Q and Scorponok part. Back then it really hurt me back then that Scorponok never remembered Alpha Q and then tried to kill him and misunderstanding occurred. So I guess I was a fujo even then back when I was a pure little girl. There was also that little emotional part where Starscream got his blanket and then he went to betray the autobots. Hollywood ruined this franchise.
Am still a mecha fan and edgelord fan to this day even though I got BTFO'd by the plot.
One Piece (4kids dub)
>>139369892
Those themes were better explored in Mujaki no Rakuen though
Chaika
Watamote, because I was a fan of the manga for a couple of years before I heard it was being adapted
The anime was pretty shit, but here I still am
K-on
Unless pokemon as a kid counts
Tranzor Z which at the time I didn't know was anime since I was 8 and was a dumb, ignorant child. Also Tranzor Z was a really badly edited and dubbed version of Mazinger Z
Record of Lodoss WarPirotess best girl
>>139346274
Sailor Moon.
Realistically probably Pokemon but I was never that much into it. It was super hard to like Sailor Moon as it was obviously directed towards girls. I had a rough childhood.
>>139346274
kawaii tank desu
>>139369181
Nope. I had watched at least a hundred series by the time Naruto entered my life.
>>139369668

I have no idea what it was called or what happened after that.
>>139346274
don't remember, either CCs, DBZ, pokemon, digimon, heidi or R1/2
>>139377379
Anyone got any idea what it was called? I remember the fight was in a forest and the snake dude got punched through a bunch of trees at one point.
