Animeversary
monstor666:
I started watching anime back in grade school, right when toonami came out(anybody remeber toonami, channel was the bee's knees) I watched DBZ and Gundam Wing (by far the best Gundam imo), The Big O (very underrated anime), Outlaw Star and Cowboy Bebop. That was what 12 years ago. But the first anime I ever watched was Akira, when I was like 10, that and Metropolis (my favorite anime to this day). So...i've been watching anime for about 12 years and just keeps getting better and better. But i just got my girlfriend into anime like 2 months ago, she's in love with Panty and Stocking haha.

Started somewhere around 2003, when series like Golden Boy, Najica and - my all-time favorite - NOIR were aired on MTV and VIVA (Yeah, MTV got me hooked up on anime and I still love those series). My first anime DVD was .hack//SIGN (I started getting hooked on .hack the same year but didn't play the games until a year later) and the first anime I downloaded was Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha. My taste has since then expanded, but not changed (I still dig Noir and Golden Boy and I loathe series coming from VNs). I do not think I'm too old though... depends on what you're watching.

I remember watching Inuyasha and DBZ around 2000, not knowing that it was anime. I really started being an otaku in 2006, when a friend showed me Hellsing and Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni, and that's when I fell in love with anime and started watching like a fiend. I can't remember the exact date as to when I started, but I am always glad that when another year passes I can still find a series that suits my tastes and that I can share it with others.

I was a happy anonymous resident of 4chan city, so of course my first anime was Rozen Maiden. That was in 1st year of uni (2 years ago). I really liked Rozen Maiden, and I'm not necessarily talking about the DESU DESU DESU part, that anime had an awesome plot. It was nothing like I expected/seen before anywhere. Of course after I watched it I got some more anime to watch (Kazemakase Tsukikage Ran, Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni and Elfen Lied, if I recall correctly) which were awesome. And then a few harem comedies and School Days and Narutaru. After Narutaru I remember making my BoxTorrents (now BakaBT) account and I've been seeding ever since. After that, A-P to get recommendations for new stuff to watch. Anime Milestones? 1st milestone: School Days. That's the only one.
TL;DR: 1st anime Rozen Maiden, animeversary: somewhere in March.

Ummm... sometime in 1985 would be my guess, when I first saw Robotech. Earlier than that, if you count watching Star Blazers, Voltron, or Tranzor-Z on U.S. television.
