What was the first anime you ever watched?

The first anime I ever watched would probly be Inspector Gadget or Speed Racer and at the time I didn't even know that it was an anime coz I was just a lil kid and didn't pay any attention on who made it. But the first anime that I watched and realized that it was an anime would be Dragon Ball Z. I also like Yu Yu Hakuso, and RuroniKenshin (whoever you spell it).
 
Maybe Aa! Megami sama or sailor moon. It was during childhood days, but as far as i could remember, I came to associate sailor moon with anime from then on..cos i liked it enough back then to find out about anime in general.
 
This is pretty much going order in the best that I can remember.

-Inspector Gadget
-Speed Racer (before the reruns on MTV in the early 90's)
-Voltron (the original)
-Transformers (the original)
-Thundercats (I know it was American, but it could have just as well been Japanese.)
-Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (I'm not sure on this one either.)
-Street Fighter (I'm not sure if that was considered Japanese animation though.)
-Sailor Moon (Ironically enough though I hated that show, and it never really turned me into a pervert either.)
-SAMURAI PIZZA CATS (That anime rocked the house!!!)
-Several movies on the Sci-fi channel.
-Akira
-Casshian The Robot Hunter
-Robot Carnival (The best animated shorts period!)
-Eight Man (Can't remember the exact name of it though.)
-Tenchi Muyo! The Movie: Tenchi Muyo In Love
-Dominion Tank Police
-Some biker movie, but the name escapes me right now.
-Armitage III: Polymatrix
-Iria: The Zeriam Animation
-Project A-ko (both movies)
-Some other animated shorts, but I can't remember them all. All I know is that they rocked.
-Fatal Fury The Movie
-Poke'mon (Worst Japanese animation period.)
-Gunsmith Cats
-Tenchi Muyo! OAV
-Tenchi Universe
-Tenchi In Toyko (Worst Tenchi ever!)
-Variable Geo (Pure pervert animation there.)
-El Hazard
-El Hazard 2
-Ah! My Goddess OAV
-You're Under Arrest OAV
-Neon Genesis Evangelion
-Saber Marionette J (The original subtitled version too! ^___^)
-Burn Up W
-Some various others too.
-Blue Seed
-New Dominion Tank Police
-Macross
-Gundam
-Sol Bionica
And on, and on.

Doc:ramen:
 
my first was trigun and then beebop...good ol' days...now i am watching prince of tennis and i love it
next is either whistle or wild striker i think
 
Cardcaptors then the first Anime movie was Utena my friend Nightwalker has the dvd.
 
The first anime that I had ever watched was "Totoro" created by Hayao Miyazaki when I was 5.
 
Although there was a lot of anime I watched as a kid, I didn't know any of it was Japanese. So the first anime I remember watching and thinking "Hey I need more" was a butchered version of Vampire Hunter D that was shown on TBS in the early '90s.
 

now that you say it, I think It was Sailor Moon for me too, man that was some time ago ^^
 
i won't be original - my first anime was also sailor moon and as i remember sth like yataman (? - it was a long long time ago...)
maybe i'm not a fan of SM but like it because of the fact it was my first^^
 
my very first anime was actually laputa: castle in the sky. i was like 5 or 6. used to watch samurai pizza cats as well...and whenever i was in belgium or france, i'd watch DBZ.
 
I wish I could remember... I think it was either Sailor Moon or DBZ...
If not, then I don't remember.
 
My favorite and first anime was sailor moon! Yeah! I love them all!!!!!!
D*** america! They didn't show the supers S!
 
Oh yeah, I forgot, RUROUNI KENSHIN!!!!! I love Himura KEnshin. I hardly see men like him these days. I wish I could find one out there...
 
my first anime - good old sailor moon
but now i hate it
 
Spoon Oba-san (Vrouwtje Theelepel is the dutch name)
Tom Sawyer no Boken (Adventures of Tom Sawyer)
and Ie Naki Ko(Alleen op de wereld (Dutch)

but the first anime i watched,that i knew it was anime was Cowboy Bebop(still love that anime)
 
hmmm, if I remember correctly it was an old anime called "unico and the lost island" or something. But I didn't get into until an anime called "beautiful dreamer"
 
my first anime

My first and always favorite would Be Neon Genesis Evangelion, ive been hooked ever since. but i mostly like animes such as rurouni kenshin and samurai X.
 
Memories eh?

Okay. I would have to say that the first anime that I ever watched was called "Unico and the Island of Magic" I think it is an anime.. it was just soo long ago I don't know if any of you know about it.

yes its an anime


Plot Summary: Unico the unicorn has the amazing power to make anyone he meets happy. Whether it's because of his personality or the powers of his horn, no one knows. In this story, Unico finds himself with a new friend, a young girl named Cherry. However, Cherry's long lost older brother Toby has finally come home and is now a misguided apprentice to an insane (and not human) magician named Kuruku. When Cherry's parents get turned into weird, almost zombie-like dolls called living puppets by Kuruku, she and Unico start a quest to the very ends of the earth to get her parents and brother back. Unico and Cherry must stop Kuruku from collecting and turning every living creature on the face of the earth into living puppets.
 
Yup. thats the one. Thats pretty cool that you knew exactly where the link for it was.

SWEET!
 
Hello everyone

My very first anime has to be Dr.slump, it was a big hit anime in my days and the anime was so popular and we even talk about it at school and sings the OP and ED songs as well.

Hrmm... Kiki's Delivery Service. Kinda wack that I saw it in English, but I really thought the animation was out of this world, which brought seeded my interest in Japanese pop culture , etc
 
Speed Racer was the first anime that i ever saw, but Sailor Moon was the first anime i watched and actually knew what anime was.
