Anime & Manga Your first EVER anime! ^^

[SoftSmile]

My first anime that I recognized as anime was Highschool Of The Dead, but like technically my first one was Dragon Ball.

 

[Avythe]

I used to watch Pokémon while I was getting ready for school back in the day.

When I was a kid, I definitely enjoyed watching the likes of Pokemon, Cardcaptor Sakura, and even Dragon Ball Z. The first anime I watched that wasn't just beamed into my brain via Cartoon Network either after school or on a Saturday night was Naruto. It's actually what introduced me to manga as well!

I don't know if Pokemon counts, but technically that would be the first one I ever watched, I just didn't finish it so I guess I really don't count it.

In that case, it would be Beastars. I don't really like Anime/Manga, but I'm a furry so of course I had to watch Beastars. Love it.

Mine was A Little Snow Fairy Sugar, and for the life of me I cannot recall how I encountered that before Naruto. I remember almost nothing about it other than there being fairies, and that the fairies really liked waffles. I, being a young fairy enthusiast who also enjoyed waffles, was enthralled.

Sword Art Online lol. I know it's not the best and a lot of people hate on it but as my first, it holds a special place in my heart. It brought me into VR and the world of Anime so I apricate it.

Any of yous familiar with Jetlag Productions? They were this American company that outsourced all their animation to Japan, like many companies did in the 90s, and you can really see the anime influence on their work. I used to watch this film every Christmas called The Magical Gift of the Snowman, and I guess on a technicality that was the first anime I ever watched. Was even directed by a guy who worked on The Castle of Cagliostro.

I watched the Pokémon anime a lot when I was younger. Now I don’t know which anime to watch . I absolutely loved it.

 

[Shadow Rose]

If pokemon or digimon count then one of those. If not then it was either Fullmetal Alchemist or Black Butler

 

[Sadies]

Wolf's Rain, before I knew what anime was.
Then Black Butler.

My first ever exposure to anime was when my mom let me watch one of her VHS. The show kid me decided to watch was "Mahou no Tenshi Creamy Mami". From there on I became a die-hard magical girl otaku. B)
