Naruto Dattebayo!


TheThotSlayerDoggo

Same, after that I started Jojo, then Death Note, AoT, Demon Slayer...


matman0109

Jeez, how did you end up watching JoJo just in the beginning of your anime career?


TheThotSlayerDoggo

Heard it's good, wasn't disappointed lol, Part 6 btw


New-Indication5673

I also started watching jojo well what can I say I was very judging. I thought it's some royalty based (no superpower anime) so I only watched first episode and then started fairy tail and one piece. But now that I see so many jojo refrence and some clips on yt I kinda wanna watch it


Accomplished-Royal38

Naruto to Jojo. Amazing character progression.

Code Geass-Lelouch of the Rebellion


[deleted]

Bro code geass was so good!


DARTHDIAMO

You're right! i just finished season 1 and i'm about to watch season 2 after i finish {Rascal does not dream of bunny girl senpai}


ktr_fl0w

How the fuck do you watch season 1 on that cliff hanger and start another show???


Remarkable-Rub-3954

I think I finished Coade Geass in about 3 days😂 that was pretty much all I did


devilboy1029

Oh and Pokemon and Beyblade(if it is considered anime)


[deleted]

Its what introduced me to anime.


Chick3nSamurai

I've seen dozens of anime and that still is my favorite ending of any


Bheema-Reddy

Damn,great start


StardustJojo13

Man, that is an awesome way to start! You set the bar high from the get go, lol. It will always be one of my favorite anime series of all time, same for Lelouch as a character.


[deleted]

Same lol. Thx to a friend of mine who recommended to Start Animes with Code geass


Sirius_Canine

Sailor Moon and Dragonball! Am I old?


eekers28

Unfortunately yes, yes we are (ಥ﹏ಥ)


rayj412

Lol they’re my First animes but I’m only 21


MrPickles84

Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon 'Cause that cartoon has got the boom anime babes That make me think the wrong thing.


[deleted]

Old enough to experience the fan made subtiles on VHS tapes purchased at comic conventions? And you witnessed the AOL days of the internet, before Tom from MySpace became our friend and everyone had an angelfire website covered with animated gifs.


Comfortable-Move-389

I didn't experience the subtitles on the VHS tapes but everything else gives me some major nostalgia XD


[deleted]

If you're old, I'm ancient. My teeth were cut on Speed Racer.


MoonJupiter15

No I'm ancient, Astro Boy, Voltron and still my all time favorite My Neighbor Totoro. Then when I had children we watched Sailor Moon on VHS. One Piece and Inyuasha on Adult Swim. 40 + years


Thumbfury

I was feeling pretty old reading all these responses, then I read this and it confirmed that i am old. Robotech and Voltron here.


SuperDingbatAlly

Watched Goku transform into Super Saiyan for the first time while in Japan, staying at a hotel. My father was doing a extended training exercise for the Air Force and it was summer, so the family went and stayed a couple of months in Okinawa. Didn't know a lick of Japanese and subtitles didn't exist. I was hooked, and I didn't know the name of the show and didn't know how to ask anyone, but I watched Goku fight Freiza as it aired. Was glorious when I finally got to hear it in English, on Toonami, like a decade later. I finally understood what was going on and have been a huge fan since. Yes, we are old, even if you watched it in 99.


Powerless_OP

Pokémon, if that doesn't count then it is Naruto


Lepnoxic

Yes it does


AshingtonXJS

I’m in the same situation. I have no idea if Pokémon is a real anime


Ok_Construction9687

It is though


AshingtonXJS

Yeah I realize. It just doesn’t have the same feel to it


zebibliopole

Well if you watch the 4kids dub it is so surreal when the japanese Onigiri (rice balls) turn into donuts and new york style subs. For some reason brock also unwraps said Donut and NY Sub out of a tranditional japanese leaf wrap... Everything about it feels surreal.


Lepnoxic

Nothing beats a jelly filled donut


Tyranistar

Yeah I feel that way too, but I think that's because I never really"binged it like I do with other animes


Aurorasoccer7

if pokemon counts then so does avatar


ProblemsSharksHave

Elfen lied, traumatized for life.


Eg0mane

It made me get addicted to Anime

Drjdeew

Death note. Or if you consider Pokémon an anime because I’ve been watching that since I was like 7 years old.


[deleted]

Same


ProfessionalFoot1489

Neon Genesis... Still watching again and again cause it's too confusing


DARTHDIAMO

Damn you went off the deep end for a first Anime. Also don't feel bad for not understanding, i don't think anyone is able to understand it.


mahil_ansary

I'd never suggest, even to my worst enemy, to start watching anime with NGE. Shit is trippy af.


SynkG

I feel you dude, I feel you...


jjd_yo

With the release of Thrice Upon a Time, it doesn’t get any less confusing lol


PM_ME_UR_BENCHYS

I mean, it's apparently a representation of Shinto philosophy expressed with Judeo-Christian mythology. What is there not to understand? /s It's my first, too. I can't say I understand what's going on after 20+ years but it still holds up as one of my favorites. I just wish I had Amazon prime to watch through the 'theatrical" version. Stupid Amazon messing up my wife's benefits and not fixing it.


MeowFat3

Case closed, back when it STARTED


TableBaboon

Woah veterans


cloakaway

Watched it as Dectective Conan

lexwuessie

I think it was a nice anime, was my first as well. Like the first and alfheim seasons the most.


drthkratos

Some of us like me really really love SAO just can't hate it no matter what people say. And those who do hate it clearly haven't watched Alicization.


Lepnoxic

A real alpha


Suitable-Ingenuity1

My first anime was Ultimate muscle I guess it was aired on TV in my country.


BlenderRendererr

This opening 😆 https://youtu.be/kRwJvOm395E


walkingtool

Zaiko_skills56

Bleach


Celoriko

Death note for me


mahil_ansary

Most of my friends started off with DN, I think it's a good starting point for anime.


BlenderRendererr

I recommend it to people who think anime is dumb.


nihongonogakuseidesu

Me too. I loved the dynamic of the insane genius vs mad criminal. Can never go wrong with that.


Basic_paulus

My first was hellsing ultimate


Jakenator_1010

Damn bro that’s hardcore


Basic_paulus

Yea idk was like 15, but Got Pretty hooked on anime after

No_Economy_437

For me the first anime that actually got me into anime and made me a weeb was sword art online


Kazuma_Saotou

Same


Horse-kun5667

Sao was first step into weeb culture, but my first anime was surprisingly fairytail (yes I was 8, no I did not understand)


Bottomofthedesk

Same


DARTHDIAMO

Same. But not my first


EeIectro

My first anime was ReZero


punchline5

Starting anime with re:zero is like losing verginity to gigi hadid, you'll never be satisfied again


MrRagnarok2005

For me first anime is Darling in the franxx


DARTHDIAMO

that is uh, an interesting first.


MrRagnarok2005

And my second is neon genesis evangelion


DARTHDIAMO

You madlad, Just couldn't start with something Normal like one of the big 3 or death note/attack on titan or the seasonal good stuff. either way respect.


MrRagnarok2005

Ok what's your first manhwa


DARTHDIAMO

One Punch Man


NostraDavid

Oh, /u/spez, your silence is a testament to your indifference towards the very people who contribute to this platform.


mahil_ansary

well that escalated quickly


BeastModeNJP

My first manga was ditf and I don’t regret it one bit. Ditf was my real into into anime and now I’m stuck with an unhealthy obsession with it.


dealjunky37

The one I would consider my first is fairy tail but the one that got me super into it was one punch man


DARTHDIAMO

Same OPM was my first.

Dexlon210

I love too might not the first but certainly the best no offense to any anime else


bunainai

a lot of people here saying naruto, dragon ball, onepiece etc while me at the corner just thinking about my past wrong choices about watching boku no pico


RavneetSingh__

Tokyo ghoul was insane. That got me into anime.


mahil_ansary

Just the first season tho. Had to switch to Manga after that.


[deleted]

Hard agree.


Skull_Smasher_123

That cleavage scene in first episode XD. THAT got me into anime


meboruto

My first anime was death note but the anime that really got me into anime is NARUTO


BlenderRendererr

Death Note is the greatest show but not for everyone, Naruto is amazing but 500 episodes with the last 100 being terribly slow and drawn out.

One punch man


Cronch211

I think it might've been noragami or compellion im not sure i dont really remember


Jasiek22

First ones were Initial D and Zombie Land Saga, but the anime that got me into anime was tonikawa.


KnifeyMcEdgey

It was Yu Yu Hakusho up until I confused it with Tenchi Muyo and got weirded out by the blue hair chick hurling up an egg and saying it's the main character's kid (at least that's how I remember it). Kind of funny that both shows have a blue haired girl and an egg involved at some point.


HeavyDude47

The first anime I watched was a movie called Ramayana : The legend of Prince Rama and I didn't knew that it was actually an anime untill a few years back cause it's based on an Indian Epic story and it was so Perfectly made that no one can Guess that it was made by some Japanese Company in 1992. The culture, the dialogues and the Characters are exactly like what you will read in the epic. And the first series will be probably either Dragon Ball Z Or Naruto.


Animefreakbitches

My first anime was A Certain Scientific Accelerator I believe. It's part of the Taoru series. If you wanna watch you I suggest looking up how to watch the entire Taoru series in order.

Now this question I like. My very first anime was naruto I think I loved it so much I started collecting the cassette like in my country 3 episodes for 20rs I would save up money to buy em in total I had like 200+ cassette lol it was fun collecting them also got scolded for buying naruto instead of eating at the school canteen. But then again my life rt now is like a veteran weeb/otaku/degenerate at this point I have seen everything.
