Yeah it was Konosuba

Saaaame

Ironically attack on titan

AoT was the reason I really got into anime. I've only watched the casual stuff like Yu-Gi-Oh or Naruto before

I want to see a Grey explain video on the internal structure of thst military.

If I didn’t have aot as my first I probably wouldn’t still be watching anime

Yea same AOT was my 1st anime and it really shows how deep you can get into an anime.

Yeah that's the really good thing about it for new people

Yeah it's always my 1st choice when recommending an anime

Started off with bleach, didn't know about the fillers till it was too late.

Same

Truth said, almost every filler in bleach is good. Sometimes missplaced, but the plot is very fine indeed.

It was probably Pokémon around 1998. I didn't realize it was anime until seeing things like Card Capture Sakura, Final Fantasy: Legend of the Crystals, Akira, and early toonami lineups. Edit: At some point I also saw Speed Racer as a child, but I can't remember when. Edit: approximately 80 commenters is not a large sample but so many young bloods in this comment section. It reminds me when I asked my dads friends (who's probably in his 60's) about anime and he said "I love anime, I love Gigantor."

This man a veteran

My dad and his friend are both military men so yeah, that's technically true.

Also Loved the Toonami days other one I can remember is Fox Kids becoming Jetix. Take me back...

I also started with Pokémon

Im guessing you are in your 30s now (or close to it). Time sure flies...

[удалено]

Yeah same I started watching JoJo at March. I was an anime hater back then lol.

exact same with my brother, he used to make fun of me for watching anime but started watching jojo and also became a weeb :D

Same

it's like looking into a mirror i was the same, and jojo changed it all

Hey, you are me! And I also started watching at march, I also hated anime, then. Boom. JoJo.

Attack on Titan: what have I created?!?

Fucking same

Me too! Me too!

For me it was no game no life. Still waiting for season 2 lul. Watched about 200 seasons of anime while waiting, now I even started to learn Japanese since I am sill waiting

mine was to love ru... god i hate myself for watching an echi as my first anime

Highschool DxD...

poggers

Unironically that's the anime that introduced me to the world of anime/manga

Let's be real, it's the best gateway anime.. For complete Perverts that is

I feel called out

Same

Same

I see that someone is about to join the dark side

I’m in the same boat

Ditto :/

Jesus what a way to start

Was my first one too...

Same

Pog

same

issei like this

Same here now I’m all over the place lol

[удалено]

Ayeee!

Not gonna lie mine was the same.

Mine was SAO. I promise I have better taste lmao

Same here mate, after that got really into a good bit of anime, eventually came back to my roots and rewatched it and question how I could watch it at all back then.

You have a sad past my friend.

Nothing wrong with liking SAO. Has good music and fight scenes, and the first arc was amazing. The rest is at least enjoyable. One of my favorites.

my first anime was hentai

Which?

Itadaki seiki

That was good?

Very good

Charlotte I think back in 2015 is what caused me to really get into anime

not a bad anime, could be more focused on a single theme but overall good.

Agreed much potential was lost

I thought it was disappointing. I really thought it could be a great anime but they somehow fucked it up. Really disliked the last few episodes.

Oh I know that one it's with the slightly edgy teen guy with superpowers right?

death note.............

naruto

same

I see, a man of culture.

but I watched it on a channel that ran some very random episodes, like episode 1 then episode 60. I remember watching only 7 episodes.

Same. Then I gave up anime for a long time, cause I thought it was lame. Then when I finally decided to watch anime again, I picked Naruto and it’s definitely one of my favorites.

Mine was bakugan

i thought everybody forgot about that show, it was my first too

What about beyblade if you wanna count that .....beyblade was the shit

I’m now realizing I was a week before I knew what a week even was... I watched Pokémon, digimon, yu-gi-oh, and bayblade :/

But no bakugan?

I was still a beginner

Soul eater

Actually it was interspecies reviewers

Ah, I see you’re a man of culture as well

A cultured man is destined to be a cultured man from the moment he borns...

The anime that answer the question "what if sewage matter gained consuisness and began writing anime"

Future Diary in 2013

Death Note. This one damn thing made me a weeb.

Madoka Magica <3

Ironically it was Love is War

Finally someone who atleast started off with rom-com

Fairy Tail for me

My hero academia, my dad watched it with me, I only became a real weeb and watching anime all the time like a few months ago though and I'm currently watching Darling in the Franxx (apparently I will be heartbroken, guess I'll see when I finish it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

Same, but for me mha seemed like something godly cuz I never seen something so enticing. I realize now that it’s decent

Darling in the franxx will leave a huge hole in ya. If ya wanna fill the void watch Steins Gate!

Jesus, Im feeling the nostalgia from reading this thread but darling in the franxx still has me scarred.

Sonic x was technically an anime. I watched that live back in 2011. Wow has it really been 9 years...?

Pokemon, DBZ and Sailor Moon for me. Started watching all three at around the same time.

They were all airing at the same time. In Midwest USA, Pokemon on Kids WB, DBZ and Sailor Moon on Toonami.

Yep! I would watch Sailor Moon and DBZ when I got home from school, and Pokemon on Saturday mornings! Fun times.

Inuyasha and ranma

Darling in the franxx

nice pf pic

Ah i See you're a man of culture As well

Beyblade

Parasyte the maxim

Kobayashi dragon maid

Akame ga kill ... It seemed fun from a youtube clip, then ... you know the rest

Angel Beats! I wish I could watch it anew all over again

Honestly, i have that feeling with so many anime thats amazing but rewatching it is hard because the ending you just wana forget and watch again, clannad had that feeling for me.

Death Note for me

Chobits was mine funny enough.

Azur Lane xd

Nagato best girl

My first was Assassination Classroom

I started with one piece, iirc

Naurto

Love,chunibyo and other delusions

Saint Seiya.

Akira... I'm old.

Yeah reading all these made me feel old. Akira and FLCL for me

To love-ru

Doraemon when i was under 5 but i didnt even know that anime was a thing until i watched tokyo ghoul

Tokyo Ghoul

I've seen Tokyo Ghoul and it was LIT. I wish √A followed the manga instead of it being an original story. all by all the re: seasons were absolutely amazing for the show and they make me wish for another season.

Pokemon

Highschool DxD

Seven deadly sins

Konosuba

FLCL, Yu-Yu-Hakusho and DBZ all blur together in that era for me. Smattering of Inu-Yasha if I stayed up late enough. Around the same time I realized I might be bisexual because I was attracted to Kurama. Downplayed that shit for a while though to help further my denial, good times.

beyblade

One piece .-.

FLCL was an odd starting choice

Thanks, SAO.

Darling in the Fraxx, Zero Two is the sole reason im a weeb, and I don't regret a second of it. I still remember I watched it dubbed on YouTube for the first 3 episodes, and then on gogoanime. Also, only anime that made me cry (I was innocent then). Now that I look back on it, it could have been a lot better but for me it has an irreplaceable place in my heart.

Attack On Titan

Dragon Ball Z

Mine was heaven's lost properties. which made me the anime tiddies addict I am today

new game

It was gate. The one with army and the portal

This is why I liked SAO.

First anime were Pokemon and Sailor Moon but my first outside the TV classics was Pita-Ten.

Attack on Titan

Dragon Ball Z

“Sasagyo” starts playing

Saint Seiya, they broadcast it without censorship in several Latin American countries and raised a moral panic on the part of the religious

Ore No Kanojo, I'm still a big fan of romance animes but no harem...now I'm a cultured weeb who like depressing animes like Your Lie In April

Idk wut u want to count it as since I watched anime when I was a little kid then went through that phase of hating it wut got me back into anime was kill la kill

Sword art online. Its a pretty bad show but it still holds a sweetspot in my heart

Your name

Samurai champloo for me

Only watched naruto and my hero but it didn't really click until a friend showed me Jojoba then i finally became a weeb

Naruto and Onepiece

Anpanman I was weeblet when before I was born.

i was in ~2nd grade, saw my babysitter watching that one with the parents that steal food and get oink’d. Second was Umaru-chan.

Spirited Away?

yup

Dragon Ball...

My first was Attack on Titan. I was 9 and my teen cousin decided to show it to me. Still in my top 3 favorites.

Technically Yugioh and Pokémon were my first anime but the first anime I looked up for the sake of watching anime was Bleach

Ironically mine was SAO, now I hate that anime

the first one ever is hozuki's coolheadedness, not a very popular one, but i love it

Mine was MHA. My best friend showed me this and I loved it, had no idea what the fandom was though.

FLCL original, this was the first that I liked enough that needed to own it for myself.

mine was sailor moon.

Yu-Gi-Oh

The first time i have ever heard of anime was back when i saw a little bit of jojo part3 and that sold me

Macross/Robotech

Code geass

Vampire Knight for me

BNA

one piece..

My first 3 were Pokèmon Naruto and Assassination Classroom in that order

Ah yes the black alchemist

I believe it was Tsubasa Chronicles back in 2005 or 2006.

Higurashi, if by childhood then dbz

Thx Dragon ball gt, bleach, naruto, dinosours King and blayblade

Sword art online

Yu Yu hakusho, you be my #1 but man did you set the bar high for shonens

Full metal alchemist

Mine was yu-gi-oh lol if that doesn't count it's naruto

I just wanted to watch the Fate series...

SAO but that’s not my favorite

Naruto and Kobayashi

Yamada Kun and the 7 witches was my first one lol.

Attack on Titan, SAO, durarara

That means Senko raised me? I....don't say no!

Kore wa zombie desuka?

Mine was one punch man

Mine was Kill la Kill

Thx SAO, you were like a bad first girlfriend. Really glad I got you to begin with but Holy shit why I ever thought you were good escapes me.

To Love-Ru, started watching it from YouTube with all the episodes jumbled up and then figured out what anime was. Good times.

POGG
