Ok my story on how I got into anime is somewhat sad but ends in a good note. it was 3 years ago (my jr of highschool) and there was this girl I like.... well she was very much in to anime like sailor moon (which must die now) tenchi (I still like it) and a lot more. Well because I want to get closer to her I made my self get an interst in anime and downloaded a lot of stuff of napster. Also I started learning bout the anime. Well later on we did go out and the end we are still friends and all. but the really truth is I found out that I truely love anime and I discoverd a lot of diffent anime that I like. My friend she still teaching me and fills me in on some anime along with showing me diffent anime that I have not seen yet. I have shown her some that I have found. Well that my story what is all of yours/

I found out about anime from Cartoon Network's "Adult Swim".

As soon as I saw Cowboy Bebop, I was hooked. My sis thinks I'm a freak because I like "that Japanimation crap" as she says.

Well, it was kinda an accident the way i came across anime. About 4 years ago (6th grade) i was just flipping through the channels in the middle of summer, and i happened to come across Toonami (i was young, give me a break) while DBZ was on. It was the fight between Raditz and Goku and i was immediately drawn to it. After that, i just got hooked and couldnt stop watching it. It was only about 1 year ago that i began to discover a whole new world of anime beyond Toonami. Thats about it.

Seven years ago, one of my closest friends introduced me to "Cartoons for Grownups" I immediately devoured all of Ranma, Tenchi, Project A-ko, and anything else I could get my hands on. 7 years and over 150 different series later, I'm still going strong.

Its been said before but my video game centered childhood led me to pick up a nintendo power one august and read about pokemon
a few months later I was checking something on CN when I flipped sailor moon on and out of curiosity watched it
4 years later...

Watching Ronin Warrior, Sailor Moon and Dragonball Z when they were in syndication...geez, must've been about 7 years ago or so. Also Samurai Pizza Cats, but that was a little later. Then when they started playing anime on Cartoon Network, I got hooked again.

I'd seen little bits and pieces of Ronin warriors and Saint Seya here and there. I am however an Akira convert.

I got interested in anime after seeing a video called Project Ako. I've been hooked ever since.
