Lucky girl. I have been a fan for almost 13 years, and I just finished that show. An excellent series to start out with!Asuka Neko (post: 1451055) wrote:The actual first anime I watched was Princess Tutu.

When I was your age I had to set the VCR for Sailor Moon every day because it came on DURING school at 2:30 in the afternoon! Then I had to tape a note on the TV telling my dad not to change the channel when he woke up for work after we'd gotten on the bus so that we wouldn't videotape the Weather Channel or CNN or something! Then we had to REWIND the tape back to the beginning so we could see the episode!

. that. then I was in the library, and read a couple of OELs, like Peach Fuzz and Dramacon(didnt really understand this one but now i do due to all the con jokes). I was a hardcore reader, and wanted some 'alternative' reading, and came across Princess Ai and, my first REAL manga, Tokyo Mew Mew. I bought them all eventually, and loved them ALL. I told everyone I knew they HAD to read it. That lead to my first REAL anime: the fansubbed version of Tokyo Mew Mew on the then fledgling Youtube. This also introduced me to the AMV. My next favorite wasQuirkyIceHeart (post: 1443675) wrote:well, overly endowed women in bikinis and a whole lot of evil vibes.
And was introduced to the anime in my library's 'Jpop club,' which gave me a full view into the otaku world. I watched the series through my library, which owned it. Then, when we were about to move away, I bought my first anime DVD: Princess Tutu . And the rest, my friends, is history.Quirky-san wrote:Fruits Basket, because the concept sounded ridiculous, I'd heard it was lonely and emotional, and I had to see how it pulled that off with said ridiculous concept and title. I ended up finishing Fruits Basket first (manga and anime).

Ah, well. At least it helped make you a fan.

*checks* Oh wow...yeah, it was.
I'm sorry, Airi. Between this, Gundam Seed, and Naruto...you truly are the newest of new to anime, huh? It's okay. We'll make it better. We'll recommend you GOOD series. So you can leave these days far, far behind, and look back on them and weep as to what kind of person you were then.
