I'm going to say this. Remember watching this series on Nick Jr? Now that's nostalgia!

I do! What about the Koala Bear one? I always forget it's name, but that was on Nick Junior too.

Man, Nick Jr. used to show quite of bit of anime series in the past especially the ones I never thought were anime.

I think I may have seen some Ghibli titles when I was really young, but I really can't remember it too well. The first one I can remember for sure was Speed Racer. The first one I suspected was anime was Macross/Robotech, then Voltron. The first one I identified distinctly as anime was probably Pokemon.

Wait, I remembered an even earlier anime I've seen, possibly THE first one I've seen:

Please don't pelt me with rotten produce. It really isn't a remarkable title. And I came rather late to the medium... 1999 no less.

Alas, it wasn't my first anime persay... although this was my first title that made me consider anime as a mainstay of mine. It was the one that set me beyond a "casual anime viewer".

Gundam Wing...

Why do I have the sudden urge to hide now?

I still have fond memories of watching Akira on the SciFi channel, but my first series (and the series that started me down the otaku path) was Serial Experiments Lain.

The first anime I ever saw was "StreetFighter II: The Animated Movie". I was a big fan of the game and saw the movie somewhere and bought it. Of course, at the time, I didn't know it was an anime. Heck I didn't even know what anime was, I think I was like 5 or 6 when I saw it. My first series though was Sailor Moon, which I saw on tv in all its censored and butchered glory, lol.
