::Laughs:: Pokemon, like most other people. I got into it when it first started on TV. I don't care for it anymore, but some of the Pokemon ARE really cute! heheh.

well, if Speed Racer is considered an anime, then it was the first anime i've ever seen. Otherwise, im not sure. Probably Ronin Warriors or something.

The first anime I saw was Dragon Ball. Keep in mind this 8 years ago when thay first started showing Dragon ball on Saturday morning. I guess voltron was the second if you count it. ...And I'll form the head.

Hmm...I'm not sure but I think Speed Racer when CN aired it about 10 years ago. I didn't know it was anime at the time though. LOL. ^_^

My first anime was Hans Christian Anderson's version of The Little Mermaid and Swan Lake (both are MUCH better than ANYTHING Disney can put out). It was about... 16 years ago, so I was about 5 years old; I was in Germany at the time. When I came back to the States, though [exactly 10 years ago], I saw Sailor Moon (Yay! Go Mitsuki!). So, take your pick. *grins*

Pokemon, as so many other have said...Yeah,but back I saw the word "Anime" somewhere pronounced "Ah Nih May" and I said "Nu-uh! That SOOOOO says "An Aym"! Ah, to be young and stupid. Yeah, and I used to love dubbed Dragonball Z...And then I began to realize how badly American dubbing companies like to screw with anime (Thanks to the gone but not forgotten DBZ Unscensored) and from now on I stick to nich uncut dubs and Japanese versions on Anime and Manga-NEVER WATCH ANIME ON TOONAMI (Unless it's the beautifully done Rurouni Kenshin, the only good edited version I've seen of anything), KID'S WB! OR THE FOX BOX OR ANY OTHER PLACE LIKE DAT! Ja minna!
