What was your first anime?

Mazinger Z :)

Probably first watched anime were Doraemon and Fantazoo (eng. Ox Tales, jap. Gera Gera Booth Monogatari).

But my first love was Neon Genesis Evangelion, during teenhood.

Dominion Tank Police. I had a Saturday job in a video game store that got talked into stocking the original range of Manga VHS video releases in the UK. I started watching with Tank Police due to this cover...

View attached image.

It has to be Digimon for me, but it was on a TV when I was a kid so I watched it when I caught it streaming.

However, the first one I watched because I wanted to watch that specifically is Death Note. I haven't seen may anime, but from those that I have, nothing came close to Death Note.

mila superstar, if im not mistaken

1) Princess Knight https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Knight
2) Hana no Ko Lunlun https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hana_no_Ko_Lunlun

First anime film is Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nausica%C3%A4_of_the_Valley_of_the_Wind_(film)

Captain Tsubasa (1983)

Robotech/Macross.
Or one of the other Americanized productions from the same era where they'd edit and often splice multiple series into a single new one. (Saber Rider, Macron One and a bunch that I can't really remember anymore)
Fun fact: I did miss out on the original Voltron / Golion series when it first aired.

Mazinger Z - Captain Tsubasa

Technically----I think it'd have to be Speed Racer even though I've got no distinct memory of when.

Never really thought about it that way before since it would've been way before I would ever learn what anime and knew enough to make any distinction. I know that they showed it on Boomerang at least, but I imagine it was way earlier than that and it's either Speed Racer or maybe like Sailor Moon or something that would've been something dubbed and broadcast on American network TV to air at crazy late or super early hours.

Damn, I'd forgotten about this topic. Haha.

well already replied but everyone brought it back up XD

Probably Pokemon. These days I watch very little TV, let alone anime.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janguru_Taitei for me, early 1977. Now I feel old, thanks...

I'm pretty sure the first one i watched was ''Silver Fang'' when i was a kid :)

Yu Yu Hakusho. I was 4 years old when I first saw it though, and some parts were really scary for me back then.

Probably Mazinger Z, Speed Racer or Robotech or something like that. I was never really into anime (way back then I didn´t even know the term).

Actual first one: Kimba the White Lion.
First one I can remember: Speed Racer.
First one I was old enough to recognize as an anime: Star Blazers

Akira came later and was very impressive. However, I didn't really get into anime until Spirited Away hit the big screen. As for my first actively-watched anime series, that was Avatar: The Last Airbender. (I don't buy into the "it's not truly anime" argument.)

3x3 eys

Captain Future :)

Hm... dubbed Astroboy before school in the 80s?
Or one I actually remember anything about... Weiß Kreuz?
