Haha I always wanted to answer this question well related to story I'm 22 and like everybody from late 80's early 90's I grew u with DB,DBZ, slam dunk, case closed, shin chan, card captured something something sailor moon, etc. Well I didn't know that it was anime/manga until I was 16 and in high school. My high school library had some manga and I started reading my fave manga. Then one day while going throw all the channels of my recently bought new digital tv I stumble upon channel 18.4 The Funimation Channel and it was showing Fruits Basket and Suiri No kizuna or spiral man I was so excited and that's how I discover it was actually anime . But it took me until my 19 birthday to finally attend a anime expo first con ever it was like a dream, hahaha well I guess that was to be expected. Yes it's been a long time now.

i think people would be more into anime if they acutely announced anime as anime insted of just another cartoon

Haha that's true but to be honest I like it the way it is since I'm part of something a lot of people don't really know

I started watching pokemon, Digimon and DBZ growing up. I never knew it was anime just as cartoons. I didnt really knew anime existed until i went to high school and they had an anime club. What got me started was watching naruto. As soon as i saw that sexy jutsu i was hook haha.
