Mine was Yu Yu Hakusho, and that was back when it aired on toonami. It wasn't the first anime I watched, but it was the first that I got really into and knew it was an anime. I was obsessed with that one for a few years.

I'm John. My very first anime was Card Captor Sakura because magical girls caught my attention and made me aspire to become one myself. lol jkz. My crush in elementary was into that anime so I eventually ended up watching it with her and pretending like Sakura and Li Syaoran. Next thing I know I was more drawn into Japanese anime than American ones.

Hi my name is Vosh. I loved watching Toonami as kid then when I would travel with my family to India there was a channel called Animax that exclusively featured anime. I can't point to any one show that turned me into an otaku since I absorbed a lot of stuff at once as a kid, but my overall favorite would definitely be Naruto. I related a lot to Naruto as a kid and it was great growing up with him over the years. I'm 21 now and I'm glad to see that my boy finally made it!

I started watching anime without knowing what it was since I was probably 9, I used to watch Dragon Ball everyday after school. Then later on I continue to watch anime but it was only till I was 13 that I realized that I was already a hardcore otaku!!! I had anime posters in my room and I was already collecting stuff, drawing and writing my own fanfics. I remember running home so I won't miss the episode of DBZ!!!

Yeah, Toonami and Adultswim were what got me started too. That was before the days of being able to watch on the internet. Now that I think about it, very first anime I saw when I was a kid was Voltron.
