What was the first anime you ever watched?
« on: March 03, 2008, 04:48:47 AM »
For me, it was Vampire Hunter D (the original one, not BloodLust).

I'm just curious. :)

I think it, if this is an anime, samurai pizza cats... But other than that pokemon

Of course back then I hadn't grasped the concept of anime. The first anime I watched where I more understood the concept would probably be InuYasha.

Again this was YEARS ago so there's no way of knowing for sure...

I forget how young kids these days actually are. When I first saw Vampire Hunter D, I think it was 1994. I remember seeing it on the one little shelf of anime movies they had at my local Blockbuster Video, and thinking it looked cool, so I rented it. It was shortly after that that I started seeing DBZ and Ranma, and then eventually saw Akira. Such a long time back to remember. Early days of high school. Oh well.

I think the first anime I saw was really UY, thought I can't say for sure, because at that time I watched a LOT of the Panda channel, which I remember aireda lot of animes and cartoons.

I'm just not sure if they aired anime by then, though I think they didn't. (I don't even remember how old I was and had never heard of the word anime by then.)
Signatured postponed until I cba to make a new one. x.x

lets see, my first aired anime would probably be Dragon Ball, english dub of course, but at the time i was probably 4 or so, i remember that much because the reason i started watching more tv was because my brother was born

my first anime when i started to become an otaku would most definitely be Ranma 1/2, my first every anime download was Ranma season 3, ah sweet history, i'd love to relive those days

Well talking about the first anime nobody can remember with certainly but when I was little I saw everytime "Maia the Bee","Marco" and "Heidi".
Someone's may not consider this like animes but they are really animes from the 70's and the 80's.

I have no chronological memory so I can't really tell you what was the 1st anime I saw...

The first Anime I ever watched but not knowing it was, it was Dragon Ball. Then I watched Sailor Moon, Pokemon, Doraemon, etc. But the first Anime I ever watched when I was starting to understand what Anime really is, is called Doremi. I only realised 100% of what Anime is when I watched UY.

My first anime was UruseiYatsura2-BeautifulDreamer, back around 1998(?) or so. First viewing of TV-anime was the UruseiYatsura DVD sets, late-2006/early-2007.

how could UY be ur first anime? 0.0

I started watching the TV series which I found on youtube. I don't remember exactly how I found the video as I'd never had an interest in anime or manga before.

yes but what I asked was how could it be your FIRST anime? You've never watched anime before UY? Not Pokemon, Digimon, Dragonball (Z/GT), Sailor Moon, Ranma 1/2, Inuyasha etc?

I should mention that I live in the UK and have never had cable or satellite channels at all. I've only had freeview for 2 years and that has no anime channels.

the first anime I watched on tv was.. well i think it was Ranma, or it may be one with a guy with a "light sword" or something like that (don't even know if it is an anime), and, a few (three-four) years later UY.
