I did learn the errors of my way with Hellsing,
The same goes for One Piece... I don't like the way the characters look,
I didn't like mech stuff and didn't want to watch it, didn't want to see anything that even had a bit of mechs in it... Boy that changed, I came in on the first episode of Escaflowne with the dragon and I was hooked
As for Sailor Moon I get tired of watching the transformation scenes... Dragon Ball can get rather repetitive as well... but that doesn't mean I don't like to watch them...
Heheh...I didn't want to watch Hellsing coz Alucard is ugly. But I read reviews and the story and decided that I would give it a try. It's good except for the ending---open ended again.
One piece, I never got to even wanting to watch it for the same reason as you. At least you have your daughter who will want you to watch with her. Plus, One piece is LOoooOOonnnggGGggg. I hate long series especially when they get repetitive and boring.
The first mecha anime I really enjoyed was Escaflowne too. After watching it, I decided to give some other mechas a chance, eg. Gasaraki, Rahxephon, Gundam W etc and I havn't regretted it yet. Currently watching Gravion, pretty good and light-hearted.
As for Sailor Moon, it could disappear from the face of the earth for all I care. I don't like it. Simply lost interest after watching the first 3 episodes. I off the tv whenever the show comes on and I think it's irritating. I seriously dunno why is it popular.
Hehe
:p BUT I really like Dragonball. Gokuu is so cute as a kid. I didn't really care much for the "hi-tech' and "better drawn" sequels. The original is still the best.
