I was just thinking this might be a good topic for the weekend Very Happy
how old were you when you first read or watched anime /manga? Myself, i was about eight or nine watching evangelion by accident, but i didn't know what it was. I was about ten when i really got into anime and 12 when i got into manga.

3 people is "most"? Confused

Anyway, I first started watching when I was 4 or 5, but watched it knowing what it was at 11.

well, to be technical, it was when i was probably about 7 or 8. i'm not really sure, since that was like 20 years ago. i was watching shows like Voltron, G-Force, Transformers, etc back in the 1980s, and i had no idea they were anime or that there was such a thing as anime.

flashforward to about 6 years ago, when i'm about 21 or 22, and i'm watching Akira, Vampire Hunter D, etc. on Scifi Channel's Saturday Anime. that was my first, when i then knew about anime, and i've been watching anime ever since

Although not EXACTLY the same as this thread on first anime seen, this is close enough to it that I'd prefer if we simply merge the two together.

As such, this thread has been locked.
