Saw my cousin watching Fairy Tail during great grandma's funeral. Watched with him, asked for the title, then continued watching at home.

I was forced to watch TV when i used to be in elementary school because my parents both worked fulltime, and then it started with Animes like Digimon and Card Captor Sakura, and today, Card Captor Sakura is still one of my favorites ♥ Then i didn't watch it for years but when I woke up, i remembered it and rewatched everything and now i'm totally addicted to animes and mangas :D

I used to fall asleep on the couch as a kid while I watched stuff like Eureka 7 or InuYasha. I didn't know it was anime then, though. Years later, at the beginning of highschool, a guy told me about Angel Beats!

I grew up with the Fire Emblem game series since my uncle is a collector of those games, and I watched the OVA anime based on the first game. After that, I ventured off to shows like Princess Tutu and Baccano, and I wound up where I am today, constantly adding to my list of animes to watch.

A friend of mine let me borrow her collection of anime DVDs and then I got hooked :D
After that, I searched for more anime to watch and then... I became an otaku :)

(... or weeaboo. Which is the right term? ._.)
Otaku is addicted to anime/loves it.

Weaboo is an obsession.

Was really tired of waiting for the next one so i found Bleach, then One Piece, then FMA, Death Note...

Had a very nice group of friends who introduced me to actually watching animes, but before that I googled it so I could copy images off Google and draw them out, that's how I started drawing too.

I firstly watched Oda Nobuna no Yabou in Fall 2014, that was my beginning of watching Animes. But the very first Anime I really watched and liked was School Rumble (watched in 2012)https://osu.ppy.sh/forum/posting.php?mode=reply&f=75&t=303434#

It was on tv.
Antiverse
Started watching in 2011. Watched some about 150 TVs. Every year I watched less and less titles until I completely stopped.
I think I got tired of seeing such love and such friendship that will never happen to be irl. Also the anime girls' cuteness makes me sick by now - every time I remember the real girls, which I don't even want to talk about. Bleakness of the real world is unbearable - but the world of anime only intensifies the despair I feel. Anime is a very fragile shelter for people who couldn't find a place under the sun.

Via Jetix channel TV, I was just wondering about SonicX , Naruto and others. So I came to netz. xD

In the past when I was a kid, I would watch some anime with my mother. I never really understood it from how young I was, but I still enjoyed it. Then years later, at the end of middle school (around June 2014), I was looking for songs to listen to. I came across a cool looking AMV, and I really liked the song. I knew it was anime from my past experiences, so i decided to try and find that anime to watch. After watching Black Rock Shooter, it became my first anime when I decided to really get into watching, and enjoying anime.

A few years before my best friend found out that she was going to move to Japan because her dad was going to do his PhD there, she began to research and learn Japanese and all those stuffs, and kinda dragged me along with it. At first I only love Japanese culture and language, but then we discovered anime and it was a sad anime (can't remember what it's called) so I kinda got emotionally attached to it :')

It was a really boring day and I asked my mother if she has any ideas, she told me to draw Sailor Moon.

And after than happen more and more lewd anime stuff appear on my Facebook. Curiosity probably helped me discover anime :v
