When I was little I started watching shows like One Piece, Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh and many more years ago but didn't really watch them religiously. I used to own little toys/figurines, cards and had a big Pikachu plushie, but that was before I knew what it was. Then I got hooked to Dragon Ball Z, and then went online to look for more similar shows and that's how it all started. Now that I've shared my story, share yours. ^^

I think for most people shows like Pokmon, YGO and others that were broadcasted on channels like Adultswim and Jetix are the first ones they're exposed to.

First couple shows for me were: Pokmon, YGO, D-Gray Man, Shaman King, Zach Bell

anime and was a weeb till the age of 13 then I'm like, I don't have time for this shit so I watch anime like once a year now. But to this day,
I watch the first animes that I've started with. (trust me, OHSHC is amazing).

I used to be really into Yu-Gi-Oh as a kid as it was always on the TV but I didn't realise it's anime. When I was 11 or so my cousin introduced me to Naruto and that's when I started watching anime.

I also got exposed to anime on Jetix haha, I remember them broadcasting Medabots, Beyblade and Shaman King on there. It was dubbed in dutch it was not that bad honestly. Never watched anything on Adultswim though, I had no clue they broadcasted anime shows. Feelsbadman

I also didn't know what anime was. I had no clue it was Japanese made animations, I just assumed it was American lol.

I used to watch Naruto when I was young and years later I was on Hulu and found an anime called Zero no Tsukaima. After that, I just started watching other anime's that were suggested on MAL.

Pokemon and Sailor Moon kicked it off for me but didn't watch any anime between the ages of 13-17. Got back into it when I found out about DBZ through 4chan/a/ back in 2010 and has been watching it ever since.
