Ah Tenchi Muyo! I remember watching back on cartoon network when they still ran Tsunami.

First for me was Robotech followed by Gundam Wing then DBZ and Sailor Moon which aired after. After that was pokemon.

Well... the first anime ive known of was Pokemon but the first one i watched and love would have to be InuYasha My best friend who lived near me showed me it. He moved recently and we keep in touch. I miss him so :,(

Pokemon, Sailor Moon, of course. I missed the Gundam Wing bandwagon, and Outlaw Star et al went under my radar for far too long.

I have to say the anime that got me into anime really was Magic Knight Rayearth. That was around the time that I began to realize my fandom and that there were MORE like it. Then I bought all of Ruroni Kenshin on VIDEO TAPE as it came out....

Tekkaman Blade or Ronin Warriors (back on UPN in the early 90s not Toonami)

[krozar]

Transformers. Didn't even know at the time what anime was.

The first sub I watched was Evangelion. Never knew a "cartoon" made for TV could have such quality. Not just the animation, but the whole ambiance, the music, everything. It was like watching a good book.

My first was Totoro. Mom was so scared to show me something that wasn't sparkly disney, but she obviously started me down a path of no return. If there is anyone to blame for my nerd status, it is my own mother.

unofrtunately i can't remember the name of one of the first ones...
i know that there was a kid that went to another world that used to be on a skateboard and on his team there was a small one that used to roll up into a ball which was always with him, then there was another yellow eyeball thing hopping on one leg and a giant i think made out of rock. it was awesome but i can't just remember the name...
other than that dragon ball, digimon, pokemon, yu-gi-oh, sailor moon, card captor sakura and the others that were on tv at the time.

when i started watching anime on the pc it was shakugan no shana followed by full metal alchemist :P still crazy about those two

Pokemon and YuGiOh were my first animes. My first kickbutt anime was Code Geass. :D

That's such a good one..way to go mom. Hard to go wrong with a Miyazaki film.

My first one I'd count was seeing Ghost in the Shell movie that inspired me to find a series to watch which ended up being Cowboy Bebop.

[Kanami]

Well mine is actually kinda confusing.. I cant remember if it's Sailor Moon, DBZ or Pokemon...

[Aniki]

Robotech's original US airing in 1985. Yeah, I'm old.

--EDIT--
krozar brings up a good point. Transformers, though written in the US, was animated in Japan. That began airing in the US in 1984, so that may have technically been my first.

Me too! Loved that show! That along with Cardcaptor Sakura, Pokemon and DBZ :smile:

[King Slazo]

Would have been Pokémon for me, closely followed by Digimon, YuGiOh, Beyblade and Cardcaptors. Loved the lot of them, and I keep meaning to rewatch Digimon and Cardcaptors.

Didn't watch anything after those five for years, until I saw Death Note subbed a year or two ago, which pulled me back into anime.

It's hard to remember back that far, I'm thinking the first may have been Sailor Moon, like a lot of you, or Dragonball. Not sure. >< Those are at least the ones I can remember watching at a young age, though I may have seen another and not realized it was anime. Lol.

Now I am really curious, I wish I could go back in time just to find out exactly. :tongue:

[Capensis]

Sailor moon and then Outlaw Star. I think it was Outlaw Star. I remember a wooden sword and a cat woman. I was 6 at the time. Also Sailor Moon was my first and I was enamored with it.

[Tyto]

It's all sort of a blur, but it comes down to Speed Racer, Battle of the Planets, and Robotech. I think I was something like 5 or 6 at the time.

[Tsundere]

My first ever anime was Samurai pizza cats (I wonder if anyone can remember that). I was like four when I watched it and all I can remember was the awful starting that it had >_<.

[Hotaru213]

the first anime i ever saw i guess would be pokemon when i was little:smile:

[zaburai]

Samurai Pizza cats for me as well...the 90s were weird like that.

[The Animeniac]

My first anime was really old adv shows like Blue Seed, Shadow Skill, NGE, and all then all the anime cartoon network basically played in the 90's.
