What got you started into Anime?
Mr Pleb Mgoo:
Note: I live in Australia.
My first anime would have (sadly :P) been the english dubs of Sailormoon on Channel 7's "Cartoon Network" morning when I was 5-8 (1996-1999).
Second (what I consider my first "Real")anime was Neon Genesis, dubbed, on SBS in 2000 .
That was the last anime I saw for several years, one night I got bored and found an anime stream on WinAMP TV in 2004, (Onegai Teacher), I downloaded that, then downloaded Onegai Twins, then I kinda left Anime again for a bit, now in 2006 I'm Anime Crazy after I discovered one of my friends at school watches it, she gave me several Anime series (Chobits, Full Metal Panics) and I official became addicted to anime and proceeded to download as much as my download limit would allow, and about 2 weeks ago, the same friend gave me The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, so yes, very addicted ^_^ .

I am not surprised. It was the first one for many people.

My brother got me into Anime although at first i didn't like he's choice, which was Dragon Ball Z {on a channel that was run by Cartoon network} and Sailor Moon {on Jetix aka Fox Kids} but after watching Trigun, BubbleGum Crisis and Excel Saga with him i was hooked :) and now own a wide collection of Anime dvds.

I can sum this up in one word:
YAOI!!!!!! :D
hehe... Honestly, I was an anime fan back in the late 70's and I didn't even know it. Anyone remember Yamaoto/Star Blazers? ;)

I can't remember what my first Anime series was. It was like DB or DBZ. As a child I watched Anime on and off, never really keeping up with any particular series regularly except for around 6th grade when the Pokemon craze started...
I guess you could say my first "moe" experience was with Misty from Pokemon, which amuses me to this day because Tsundere characters are still my favorite. Anyways, after I got over the Pokemon phase I really didn't watch Anime much at all, except occasionally I would watch Gundam Wing and that Anime with the ditzy Galaxy patrol chick.
It wasn't until senior year of HS that a friend from my Warcraft III Clan gave me a link to a site with DDLs to fansubbed Naruto. I watched like the first season on and off and didn't really get into it at first because college applications and all that jazz kept me preoccupied. However, after starting my freshman year of college I started watching it again and I got hooked. I made it up to like episode 168 and started feeling the fillers, so that's about the time I started appearing on IRC and engrossing myself in the Anime community.... consuming series after series... I also attribute my insane consumption of Anime to my posse... yeah I have a posse - they're a bunch of Anime otaku at my Uni lawl.
