Cardcaptor Sakura and Pokemon really got me into anime. I will always have a soft spot for Cardcaptor Sakura.
Does anyone else boil with rage when they think of how Toonami got taken off Cartoon Network? I know I do.

They ripped a part of my childhood from my memories when they did that.

It started when I joined my high school's anime club on a whim, because they demanded extra-curricular activity participation, and anime club sounded like it would be the least bothersome choice. Then I got into .hack//Sign and Gundam Seed, and it just snowballed out from there.

Toonami had fallen apart way before they took it off the network. I still remember the old lineup
Sailor Moon
Wing Commander
Reboot
Voltron/Golion
Gundam Wing (A little later)

I could've sworn I answered this already...
So I was like, nine, and watching Sailor Moon after school. Didn't even know it was called anime, just thought it was some neat new kind of cartoon. Now when I think about watching Sailor Moon, I could gag. Hot girls in skimpy skirts? Sure. Minute-long transformation sequences, repetitive crap attacks complete with stupid catchphrases and long-winded speeches, formulaic monster-of-the-week pattern, Adaptation Decay to the nth degree, little to no real violence, over-the-top emotes and annoying girls with equally annoying voices? Wallbanger. If it was supposed to be a children's show, I'd understand, but... The only thing I find remotely redeeming about that show is all the Hide Your Lesbians moments. Annwyn likey lesbians. And the Amazon Trio. Tranny, lowlife (dream-)rapists hanging out at a bar, drinking their livers away and literally choosing their enemies according to sexual attraction, then finding out they're actually some freaky animals from the Amazon? That's gold. Probably the only season I would rewatch if I was really bored. Especially for the strange bestiality/pedophilia vibe from that one chick and her horse.
I'm kind of growing out of anime in general... The various tropes and cliches just don't interest me as much anymore. Even .hack is starting to lose its charm in my eyes. Gasp, I must be growing up.

I started "really" watching anime after watching Hellsing and Elfen Lied.

The first anime I ever saw was .hack//SIGN, but only the last 5 or so minutes. I thought to myself "What the hell was that? That didn't look like a cartoon? I LIKE IT!" and so, I watched the next show right after that, which was Yu Yu Hakusho. But then again, this was when Cartoon Network had Toonami during the afternoon/evening.
