which was the first anime that you saw???

Furgeson · April 12, 2011, 17:05

Don't worry, Ryu, I don't either...

Darselo · April 12, 2011, 17:24

It's a magical-girl about mermaid princesses. They defeat enemies by singing. It's better than I just made it sound. (Don't tell anyone, but I have a few of the songs in my collection...)

Ryu · April 12, 2011, 17:48

O.o
I see...

cookie_ann · April 13, 2011, 01:34

my first anime was pokemon and after that inuyasha :))

FlyingBacons · April 13, 2011, 04:26

cookie_ann and Cookie-Achel. oh god XD

werr · April 13, 2011, 04:49

Rave is a shounen anime, pretty similar to Fairy Tail (same mangaka), Bleach or any other of that genre.

Holy shit! O_O I thought they were the same person!

@Werr: haha, didn't know Rave had the same mangaka as Fairy Tail XD

icewing · April 13, 2011, 16:29

...O_O WHOA they're not?!

...i guess it'll be cookie-chan 1 and cookie-chan 2...

i still remember mermaid melody...and HOW EVERYONE IS OVERLY ANOREXIC...LMAO

FlyingBacons · April 14, 2011, 00:02

I have another twin >_<

@furgeson(lily i think): lol. its obvious >_< both animes have plue~

Furgeson · April 14, 2011, 07:50

Wow, two cookie-chans! <3

@Achel: yay~ You got my name right! :)
Aw, Plue is plue, and Happy is a... happy flying dog >_> They're different (Just look at Plue's swirly nose! Ish so cute~)

cookie_ann · April 15, 2011, 02:12

i didn't know that there is another cookie around :)
Soorrry

FlyingBacons · April 15, 2011, 06:23

Nah. Both anime has plue. Rave's Plue is their companion like Happy in Fairy Tail. Fairy Tail's Plue is Lucy's spirit. He is nikora minor.

Furgeson · April 19, 2011, 17:20

Oh, I remember now~ I totally forgot about Lucy's spirit T_T He only makes a couple (one...?) appearance, but he was still shoooo cute <3

MidnightandCounting · June 17, 2011, 15:28

Pokemon for sure.

Of course at the time I had no idea I was watching "anime". My first anime that I knew actually was anime was Fruits Basket.

My friend got me hooked on the manga and then i went and found the anime. That was the beginning of a long and ongoing obsession with manga and anime.

Fran! · June 23, 2011, 17:41

Hahaha!!! I never liked Sailor Moon and I still don`t like it

Anyway, the first anime I saw (if my memory doesn`t fails this time) I think it was Sakura Card Captor and I was like 13 years old and then I remeber I saw Pokemon, Digimon and Ranma 1/2. Never saw Heidi because I didn`t liked too

Renny · June 24, 2011, 12:09

the fiest anime i watched was Blood+ while using my sisters laptop in 2009 and since then i couldnt get enough of animes

My mom thought the opposite. She thought that anime had tons of mature rated stuff in it. So, she wouldn't let me watch it. Sadly, she still thinks that...

that's what my parents think too...
apparently, many people look at anime with one word in mind: HENTAI =_=

Beth · July 04, 2011, 08:33

@Icey: I know!!! It's so horrible

! But most anime and manga aren't like that. I'm trying to convince my parent's of this but they don't seem to believe me

.

icewing · July 04, 2011, 09:53

=_= it seems that whenever there's physical contact, parents go crazy.
holding hands? hugging? kissing? >.> um...stuff

ohoho! i know many people who've watched inuyasha. apparently, i have never watched it...and i don't plan on doing so in the near future

Beth · July 04, 2011, 17:50

Hahaha, same with my parents

icewing · July 04, 2011, 20:28

=_= i'm having great doubts about what was my first anime. sailor moon? or dragon ball z?

does Monkey King count as an anime?

Mya · July 21, 2011, 04:17

Probably XD I don't know if mine counts too.. Pokemon! Lolz.

Renny · July 21, 2011, 09:52

NONONONO!! Pokemon is a childhood MUST WATCH!

No, the childhood must-watch is doraemon!

Renny · July 26, 2011, 08:05

Now I must not be confused??

I never watched it because I never found it... Now I don't think I'll find it either....

Miller · September 08, 2011, 00:25

At some point in my childhood, Voltron. I was in love with Lance (see avatar). Then in high school it was Sailor Moon on USA Network. In college, it was Vampire Hunter D and Ninja Scroll. Those last two put me off of anime until recently, when I picked up Fruits Basket on Netflix.

For the longest time, I disliked anime-style cartoons and I think it was due to this weird anime movie I watched as a youngster that had a flute-playing guy turning people into giant jigsaw puzzle pieces for his master. Apparently, this master (who was basically a creepy dumpling, I think) was building a tower/city with the pieces? Anyway, if I remember correctly, the hero was a young boy whose parents had just become jiggy wit' it. With his earnest cuteness, he managed to convince the flutist to turn on his master and the grand finale was everyone turning back into themselves. Can't remember the name for the life of me, which is why I'm claiming Voltron as my first.

Renny · September 08, 2011, 07:23

sounds like a pretty instresting anime... (the one you described)

What is Voltron like?

Hard to say. I suppose it's like the original Speed Racer, only in outer space. It's got a now-vintage art style, unabashedly cheesy dialogue and voice overs, and comical villains. My favorite part was when the lion ships would join together to make VOLTRON!

Renny · September 08, 2011, 10:41

Cant say that i have ever watched it...

Luis · September 12, 2011, 15:46

The very first? Let me think about that one

The Little Bits (Yes, that is an anime). Its about a lot of little fairies (or pixies, I forget which) that live in the forest next to a mountain. That was back when I was, like, four or five, and I didn't recognize it as anime at the time. The first one I realized was actually anime was Sailor Moon, from when I was around six or seven.

I didn't really get into anime until I saw Ranma 1/2 though.

Renny · September 13, 2011, 12:34

lol I got into anime because i was bored and was looking for something to do on my sisters laptop which i had for the holidays... I came across on or two episodes of Bleach and One Piece but it didn't start at the first episode so i stopped watching and moved on to Blood+

shiine-chan · September 13, 2011, 13:11

I think I watched a lot of anime as a kid. (I just didn't know they were called anime). I remember they used to broadcast a lot of dubbed anime back then.
Anyway, the ones I really loved back then were Akazukin Chacha and Ranma 1/2.

Yuukii · October 09, 2011, 09:43

For me, it's Kino Journey: the Beautiful World.

I've just watched it on TV, and finds the talking motorcycle interesting.

Then, I stole my brother's CD of pokemon and digimon, and started my addiction on anime.

That time, I still can't use the internet without a reason

So I could only catch it on TV

That time, my all time favorite is Gakuen Alice

otaku_mel · October 14, 2011, 19:23

Like a bajillion other people out there...my first anime was sailor moon :D
Only difference is I still like it at 14... that's not weird, right??
Hehehe, I'm always making fanart of sailor moon...

Yuukii · October 15, 2011, 01:08

Actually, what's so good about sailor moon? i can never get myself to watch it .___.

otaku_mel · October 15, 2011, 10:02

I guess it depends on the person. For me, there's just something about the costumes... I really love to draw them. O_o
Maybe the magic of Sailor Moon is only clear to 'moonies'- diehard sailor moon fans... XD

Yuukii · October 15, 2011, 11:43

Looking at the graphic, I don't like it

I don't know why OTL

Renny · October 15, 2011, 13:14

I only watch anime if the quality is nice and the art/grafics is good... but you have to respect the people who make the anime... They have to draw like every frame with colour

I bare manage one picture

Yuukii · October 15, 2011, 22:49

I know. Some anime like Starry sky have good image, but terrible plot. But the game is awesome though

Renny · October 18, 2011, 12:17

game??

Yuukii · October 18, 2011, 20:19

Otome game for starry sky. Starry sky is originally a pc game, then made into an anime

Renny · October 19, 2011, 08:33

OH... Where you play the game?

Yuukii · October 19, 2011, 19:55

You could download it online now. First, download the original version (jap) then download the english patch, then you can play in english

Renny · October 23, 2011, 10:04

where do i find it?

Black Miserie · November 08, 2011, 21:58

The first anime I ever saw was Inyuyasha.

callingcalling · November 09, 2011, 08:07

Reading through this thread has reminded me of so many things I watched as a kid that I never considered "anime", like Voltron and Thundercats. (They were new when I was little

).

The first thing I ever watched knowing that it was a "Japanese cartoon" was the Vampire Hunter D movie, when I was, like, eight. I tell people that and tend to get a o_o response.

But what turned me into an anime fan was, like almost half the people in this thread, Sailor Moon and Dragonball Z on Toonami (when I was 18 or so. :P )

Renny · November 09, 2011, 10:33

My fiends look at me wierd when i tell them that i never whatched Dragon ball, Yu gi oh and as such

Kimbap · November 14, 2011, 14:35

^ I haven't watched any of those either!

In fact, I've never watched Sailor Moon before. Only the first episode when it aired on TV this summer.

Anime was already all over the place since I was born, so I've watched tons that I can't remember.
But I remember growing up with Ojamajo Doremi and CCS.

Fire Fairy · December 15, 2011, 20:46

Hmm, not counting Avatar: The Last Airbender (since it's not officially anime), my first anime would have been Detective Conan, which is still my favorite.

(as if you couldn't tell...)

Renny · December 18, 2011, 00:51

I really enjoyed avatar! I cant dicide whether it is an anime or not... art wise it could and couldn't be..

Fire Fairy · December 25, 2011, 00:44

The first anime I ever say was Detective Conan (unless you count Avatar: the Last Airbender). I'm still a huge fan. (I got season one on DVD for a Christmas present, and I'm so excited!

)

As for best animes I've ever seen, that's a tough one. Even though Detective Conan is my favorite, I wouldn't say it's the best. I guess my top three would be:

1. Avatar: The Last Airbender (if that counts as anime...)
2. Seirei no Moribito
3. Baccano (it was a bit bloody, and I wouldn't watch it again, but the plot structure was so amazingly put together, I finished it and I was like, wow.

)

Then again, when I'm talking best, I'm not talking favorite, or what made me laugh, I'm talking amazing plot/story structure/character development. All three of these meet those standards.

Angel~ · April 08, 2012, 10:12

My first... That would be Pokemon then... (the only one airing in my country when I was little....)

As for favourites: death note, avatar and Inuyasha <33

and I watched it ALL THE TIME.

Psh, Pokemon is for all ages, all genders, all everything.

Angel~ · April 10, 2012, 03:04

Okay, sorry...

My parents just didn't allow that much tv...
I always watched Totally Spies xD but that is not an anime I think...

`Roze` · April 11, 2012, 13:24

Technically the first anime I've saw would be InuYasha because my dad and his friend use to watch it and I'd watch it with him, but that was before I realized it was an "anime" and not a "cartoon". What actually got me into anime and manga was Fruits Basket. My first love.

Angel~ · April 11, 2012, 16:12

No way!! Fruits Basket got me addicted as well!

I still love it with all my heart :)
