My sister actually got me into anime. She just went crazy when she showed me all the animes she knew about. And eventually, I got addicted to it. xD

Cool.

My cousin got me into anime. I'd just walk in the room and she'd be there watching Fruits Basket or Sailor Moon or something, and I'd just kind of stand there and watch for a bit. ^_^ I love it now!

I was about 6yrs old and randomly came across Samurai Pizza Cats on tv. That is what started me on anime.

I watched capitan tsubasa, tigerman, daitarn V when i was a kid. After 10 years... I saw Miyazaki, Neon Genesis Evangelion and now... maaaaany others ^__^. Plus I like watching anime in japanese since I'm learning it.

What got you into anime?

As I put it in another thread, I'm afraid I have only myself to blame.

Somewhere along the line, as a youngster, I plopped myself in front of the television and discovered series' such as: Speed Racer, Battle of the Planets, Star Blazers, etc., -- which were a dramatic departure from many of the other shows I had seen (and that I also enjoyed) and they were exciting as all get out.

I've had a fascination for animation in general for as long as I can remember, and anime is no exception, offering some of the best material the field has to offer. As such, and on it's own character, culture, and storytelling merits, I can't help but be a fan.

Well i frogot how haha i wasnt relli addicted to it i mean i watch captain tsubasa, macross and dragonball z it was good but not realli addicted kinda good to think about it it was onli 2-3 years age i got addicted once my cousin showed me some anime i think it was hikari no go i think then mayb dragon drive anywayz thats how it happened XD

A friend of mine got me into it. She was very addicted already, and now I'm addicted as well :( but I like it anyways! ^-^;

I first remember my favorite anime being Sailor Moon and Dragon Ball Z, mind you this was back in the day when they were still on public TV.

I've liked anime on occasion, but it was not till I watched Negima in its entirity that I wanted to watch more and more and more, and eventually have. Over 25 series and counting I've watched.

It's plain curiosity that got me into anime, i just thought, what if i watch this and poof... i am an addict

I whent to a friend and hi whetch'd chobits so I whetch'd to and I sew it's so good. hi toeld me all abote anime so now I love anime

Ahh. Well first I was addicted to Pokemon, so much that I was considered "The Pokemon Queen". o.o Than I just kind of got bored with Pokemon and became addicted with Digimon. I still haven't gotten over this obsession mind you. I remember seeing one episode of Dragon Ball Z and hating it with every fiber in my being. Maybe I'll like it better not but I haven't tried. This was all before I knew what anime was.

Than I think around two or three years ago I was flipping through the channels and I spotted an episode of Inuyasha. o.O It was so entirely diffrent from any show I had watched I just sat there amazed ("HE HAS DOG EARS!") but it wasn't episode where Inuyasha starred, it was in the human world with Kagome, so I had no clue what the show was called. Than when I went to my cousins house he told me, than refused to let me watch the tapes he had. So it was up to me! I looked it up online, recognized it as 'anime'. Watched my fill of Inuyasha, than I looked into other animes and BAM! I'm an addict. And that is how I became addicted to anime. *Sits down solemnly while people in the Anime-Addict Circle clap*

My brother got me into anime. I thought it was stupid but then I decided to watch more and now I'm addicted.
