I was too innocent before i discovered anime. I was just scrolling through Facebook and found a lewd anime scene, I was curious so i did some research and started watching that anime xD. And after than happen more and more lewd anime stuff appear on my Facebook. Curiosity probably helped me discover anime :v




(The anime was Sakurasou no pet na Kanojo)

When I was 5, my friend happened to have the entire Inuyasha anime series and we would watch even with our parents around
they didn't really care tho :ooo
also from plain old television with the usual Dragon Ball, Naruto, Pokemon, etc :,D

I walked in my cousin's house with clannad on the TV and started watching it.
thought it was pretty nice but never touched anime until a year later

as a kid my father actually always watched dragonball with me and my brother. thus we started watching more anime on local tv as kids. a few years without anime went by and suddenly my brother started watching this new show, naruto. i thought it was a ga* kids show and didn't bother much but since my brother always urged me to, one day i gave it another chance. since i'm posting in this forum, you can probably imagine the rest of the story

(sorry if typos; on mobile phone rn)

Funny enough, it was a friend that had liked a page on Facebook and I thought why not check it out. The rest they say is history.

I heard a friend talking about some tipe of 'Titans being killed by soldiers' and I was like WTF, then he told me that it was anime, and the anime that he was talking about was 'Shingeki no Kyojin' or 'Attack on Titan'. This was 6 years ago, and now, I can't stop watching anime, I love it. Asuna and Zero-Two best waifus <3

I grew up watching a ton of Cowboy Bebop, Naruto, One Piece, Pokemon, Digimon, Yugioh when I was a kid. During my teens I decided to watch Fullmetal Alchemist and a few more popular animes around 2010s. Ever since i've done nothing but watch.

While I was dealing with depression, I would watch Youtube a lot. I found a recommended video on YouTube that was a funny moments for some anime called Trinity Seven and after watching it I decided to watch the whole anime because it looked funny. After watching it I looked on MyAnimeList and found different recommended ones that were like Trinity Seven. That's when I got into anime.

I was exposed to anime before I even knew it was anime: Pokemon, Digimon, SonicX

It was in my first year of highschool I started noticing that there is a specific style of animation that is much different from western cartoons. But I didn't know what to call that style, so it was hard to find. Enter my second year of highschool, and my sister comes to me with a recommendation from her friend to watch Fullmetal Alchemist. The rest is history.
