I was an anime fan (or otaku) ever since I was 3. I watched Pokemon alot, and Knights of the Zodiac, Sailor Moon(boredom), and Dragonball. No one really introduced me to it, I just snapped into it myself.
How did you first get into anime?

I think it's when I watched a show called Orphen -- and then I saw Rurouni Kenshin - and saw how great they were 
and wanted to watch more great shows like that

My friend introduced me to Gravitation. But I was into it before then; I liked Pokemon, Digimon, and Fushigi Yuugi.

Um. When I was a young little three/four-year-old, I was really into Doraemon. Had my cousin renting the videos (translated in Chinese) like crazy. Though, of course, I had no clue about anything remotely anime-related and so my Doraemon craze is like a little kid's Barney-craze so I'm not sure if this counts.Anyways... sometime in Kindergarden, I somehow became obsessed with Sailor Moon (and I have the boxes of merchandise to prove it). And then there was Pokemon... and suddenly, sometime in fourth grade, whilst watching all those mainstream stuff like Rurouni Kenshin and stuff, I decided to say that anime was really, really cool.Now eighth grade, and my love for it has sort of died.

I was into it when I was younger and then sort of lost interest for a while.Then one of my cousins got Akira and a 10 disc set of every Neon genesis evangelion episode so I watched them and now I'm hooked again.

Seems like almost everyone started getting into anime when dbz was released, im guessing it had the same major affect on all of us back then, turning us into the mindless zombies like most of us are today and im one of them

I watched Dragon Ball when I was little but I thought that it was just another cartoon.I think it was actually sailor moon that got me into it in the first place and trigun that got me serious.

I think Sailor Moon was the first anime i've seen but that was long ago. I became a "real" anime/manga fan because of my elder sister. I think I started watching Fruits Basket then.

Dragonball Z was the one that started it all for me. I've seen every episode at least twice and I know pretty much everything about everybody in it. Dragonball Z is just plain awesome.
