What is the 1st anime you watched that turned you into an Otaku??

Pokemon was my first but the series that turned me into a huge anime fan was Yu-Gi-Oh!

Pokemon and Digimon even though I got into Digimon by accident. Seriously I got into Digimon when my grandfather got the names mixed up when he went to the video store. Three letters (VHS). Seriously I was just a little kid always watching VHS tapes of anime or just VHS tapes of Dopey kid shows. Then when I wanted to watch the movie Pokemon, my grandfather got Digimon instead. Even though I was mad at first I started to get into it as the movie started to progress. My role as a child was: watch the movie first and ask questions later.

I remeber watching Dragon Ball Z on toonami when I was in middle school. Trying my absolute hardest to power up yet never achieving my goal of a power level over 9000!!!

I used to watch so much of Cartoon through YTV and Teletoon when I was grade school. When those channels started airing dubbed anime more frequently like Inuyasha, gundam seed, naruto and ranma 1/2 (with so much recap); slowly converted me to watch it. Once, I got an access to my own computer in my own room...progressively watching more anime than ever. The only catch was, you had to watch with Part 1/2/3 in a episode in youtube due to copyright issue. I believe Ranma 1/2 got me to embrace anime overall...

Dragon Ball was the first anime I saw. I was like 3 and I've loved anime ever since.

Yeah, everyone loved dragon ball series even in a place where I was the only asian in the whole school... role played with my friends during every recess when I was grade 3. Ka-me-ha-mehaaaaaaa!

It all started with Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, was like 4 or 5, it didn't really get me into anime exactly but it did get me watching more gundam which got me interested in other anime later
