What was the first anime you were obsessed with, and how old were you when you found it?
Mine was either DBZ or YYH(I forget which) when I was 9 or 10 years old
First Anime Obsession
-
-
Samurai Pizza Cats when I was around 8 years old I think.
-
Digimon when i was 9 i think it was the first season
-
Sailor Moon, then Dragonball Z. Thing about DBZ was thought it was about people who became giant animals and fought (they showed an Oozaru is almost every single commercial).
-
Pokemon
16 Epileptic seizures
-
Pokemon…
Gotta Catch em' All~
-
Rurouni Kenshin, but it was more of a mild interest.
-
Digimon. I used to record it every Saturday. In fact, I still have the tapes.
-
omg! I forgot about Pokemon and Digimon, Ha! DERP
-
Pokemon.
what
-
DBZ I used to think it was the greatest thing ever.
-
guyver biobooster armour back in 94 or something (hmm got to have been earlier.)
(or maybe it was calaforce/galaforce, starsinger and robotech before that. cant remeber if i was "obsessed" with those)
-
Pokemon was my god, back in my kid days.
-
Pokemon, then Digimon, then DBZ. After that, I didn't watch anime until I heard about One Piece.
-
I thought that Sailor Moon was the most amazing thing in the world when I was about 8-9. I still have a few volumes/issues of the manga from back then. After that, Gundam Wing. Now I'm perplexed as to how I had the patience for it.
After my initial anime/manga phase, I ditched both for several years before picking up on it again with Lupin III.
-
Heh, like most people here, my first anime obsessions were Digimon and Pokemon. Them pokeymans
bringing back major nostalgia.
-
My Neighbor Totoro
-
Little Viking Vicke.
Or Wickie de Viking in Dutch.
Hell if I knew it was Japanese back then, though. But damn I loved that series.
-
Pokemon and Digimon, I guess, but the term 'anime' had never crossed my mind then.
The first one I really got into was One Piece.
-
Pokemon was my first anime obsession. After that though, I really didn't watch much anime. I got back into it when I started watching FMA, then I became obsessed with it and then it came to One Piece.
-
Saint Seiya, YYH and the original dragonball series.
-
First anime I had ever watched were Pokemon and Digimon. The first ones that got me interested after the -mon phase were Trigun and Outlaw Star.
-
For me it was Pokemon and Digimon. (I think Digimon came first though) My little sister was (and still is) really into "My Neighbour Totoro". I didn't really watch anime that much until I saw One Piece.
-
My first one was Pokemon when I was 11. I had seen the show, and it got me into the video game. Before I knew it, I started collecting the cards and playing that card game. I even had a Pokemon themed birthday party Shudders
It switched to Dragonball Z about a year later, and that was my big obsession until finding out about One Piece about 5 years after that.
-
Pokemon and Voltes V.
-
Dragonball Z, started watching it back when I was 7.
-
pokemon and the Yuusha series
-
Voltron, way back when.
-
First anime - Sailor Moon (which sounds totally gay when I think about how much I liked it back then)
First anime I got obsessed over - Inuyasha (obsessed being where I couldn't wait til the next episode and I got really pissed when it was replaced by goddamn Reign: The Conqueror on [AS]….Which is equally as embarrassing)...
-
Dragonball Z, back in…93/94. I still love it, by the way.
-
Dragonball Z, back in…93/94. I still love it, by the way.
How did you watch it in 93? Fansubs? Lived in japan?
-
Tenchi Muyo, back when I was 13. I feel in love with almost all the characters and I watched it religiously. It was also the first series that began my fascination with Japanese culture.
-
Like a lot of people, it was Pokemon, with Digimon and DBZ were very quick to follow.
-
Samurai pizza cats 9or less sailor moon and dbz 12 i cant remember what age
-
I think it was Calimero when I was about 4 or 5.
-
-
Goldorak.
Aka Grendizer. I was something like 6 probably. Strangely enough I never developped an interest for giant robots anime afterwards.
MEEEETAMORPHOOOOSE
-
Dragonball Z, even with Canadian TV's shit rerun schedule, (I watched Namek blow up more times than I can remember)
-
Sailor Moon, Pokémon, then Dragonball Z. Was extremely obsessed with Dragonball Z for a very long time. Would watch Gohan turn SSJ2 every morning before school.
Stopped reading manga/watching anime for about 3-4 years after that, which only changed after discovering One Piece. Am now reading about a bazillion series at one time.
-
Sailor Moon
I was always sure to hide it from my friends though
-
Pokemon, Digimon, DBZ, Sailor Moon, etc. like most other people, but the first real "fandom" I remember getting into was Slayers. Good series.
-
The first thing that really "got me into" anime was Cowboy Bebop
I remember that was the first time I stayed up really late. And before that when I couldn't keep myself away for that long I went to the store and bought the DVDs one by one
I did the same thing with TRIGUN but that happened way before it aired on AS
-
I remember being in grade one and liking sailer moon because I thought thwy were hot. But my first big anime was probobly dragonball z. I watched that religously everyday.
-
i can't decide if it was goldorak (mazinger) or cat's eyes. in fact i don't remember.
and i spent my childhood watching maison hikokku, city hunter, ranma 1/2, DB and DBZEDIT: how could i forget captain tsubasa? i feel so old when i hear people say their first anime obsession is pokemon or digimon. i was 18 or more when it started…
-
HOW OLD ARE YOU?
But yeah,my real obsesion was DBZ,but after GT ended,I had nothing major till OP.In fact now I realise how dull Dragonball Z is,compared to just plain Dragonball.
-
The first anime I ever watched was sailor moon, it came out early in the morning, then it was Pokemon, then Digimon (those are probably the first naime I watched, but at that time, I never knew they were anime because I didn't use Internet at that time for researching). Then probably the next was yugioh, but I didn't know that was anime too, oh yeah I use to watch cardcaptors before yugioh, and after it was more recent shows
-
Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh I believe. I recorded pretty much all of the episodes from 2002-2003, over my Battlebots and Robot Wars tapes, which I now thoroughly regret.
-
Robotech, with a pinch of Voltron on the side.
-
Doraemon & Cardcaptor Sakura.
-
Pokemon lasted for 3 years, then DBZ on the very same day started. Lasted for.. 3-4 years. After that I was just crazy about anime in general like an idiot until I settles with HxH and OP, then I met other good ones. And now it's a little mix between some.
