i watched my first anime at home in 1994...
the movie i watched was vampire hunter d
i was 10 or 11 at the time that movie was without a doubt the coolest thing i have ever seen in my lifa at that time coming from somebody who watched ninja turtles and he-man i was amazed to say the least from then on i watched the scifi channnels anime fest every JULY last 5 days each night they would show new animes uncut and unedited....and they would also show anime on saturday mornings too!!!
ever since then i have been hooked on anime.
i remember when the cheapest you could find anime dubbed on VHS was 24.99 and the subbed ones sold for 29.99 and upwards to 34.95!!
thank god for DVD. i look back now and say WTF i paid those high prices way back then??? well my dad did anyway..
ive seen alot of anime over the years.
i will never forget how badass the fist of the north star was
:eek:

1. when i was about 10 or 11 i guess, so like '95-'96 i think.
2. right here in my basement
3. dragon ball z before it went on cartoon network. it was on regular network television at like 11am on sundays on one of the low rate channels. it eventually turned into the WB. shortly after a few weeks of that, a friend told me that it was anime and showed me ninja scroll. hooked since then.

Ha I saw that anime also but it was in mexico 6 years ago.
The first anime that I saw was either Tekkaman Blade or Samurai Pizza Cats.

Chicago, 1923. As the only remaining member of the CPD with a sense of righteousness, I was tired of putting up with thugs and crooked cops, so I shipped out of that busted town. Who would have thought that sixteen months later, I'd be back. The only thing on my mind was revenge. It'd be nice to call it justice, but planning to murder a handful of crooked crime bosses isn't the same as planning to take down organized crime. And then I remembered her name. The broad that drove me to kill again. Anime.
Erm...
Actually, I think I've been into anime since seeing it on TV around 8-10 years ago. However, I didn't really start collecting it/viewing it regularly until a little over a year ago, starting with the purchase of some Miyazaki DVDs and Evangelion at Best Buy.

It was 1981 and I was 3, in Peru, my home countr, and it was some horror anime like Dracula and Frankenstein. The following year I started watching Captain Harlock, Marco, and Yamato..... I was hooked after that.

OK, I'll leave out "Heidi no Alps" and similar stuff that I watched as a kid.
1. 2000
2. In my bed, because the anime aired after midnight on TV
3. Neon Genesis Evangelion (Japanese with German subs)
That was the incentive for my current anime addiction.
