Re: What got you into Anime?
thats probably because gundam seed came out a few years ago
Gundam the original series came out around 30 years ago, so of course its not gonna be shown on every day TV.
And truth be told, I never grew out of watching cartoons, i just grew out of watching childish cartoons and went to more serious stuff...
Like digimon. Digimon was good :3

Yu Yu hakusho and Rerouni Kenshin. Those were the first animes i remember watching and a few years after i had stopped watching anime i watched a few old episodes and got back into it again, but yeah those two really got me hooked.

For me it was the American Guyver Live Action Movies. When I saw there was an anime of it I snatched it up and the rest is history. Though I did watch Astro Boy as a kid and I did see Fragonball and Sailor Moon due to my kid bro it didn't get me until Guyver.

I got myself into anime, I just watched it one day about 4 or so years ago. It just happened to be .Hack//Sign too. My favorites are .Hack and Inuyasha, a lot like other people i see.

I think my eldest brother got me into Anime now that I'm looking back. If I remember it was Cowboy Bebop with the very first episode. Been stuck with adult anime since

Re: What got you into Anime?
I liked the action sequences and the story. The character development was also something anime always did best at. Besides that I alwasy liked to hear the openings and ending themes.

Re: What got you into Anime?
For me... It was Sailor Moon way back when I was 3 or 4. I just automatically fell in love with any "cartoon" that looked like it (well, the whole "big eyes" factor ... or whatever I called it back then.) And then there was Pokemon... My parents bought me the little Pokemon "comics" (er... they were more like magazines or something) while I used my own money to buy Sailor Moon "comics." But I'd have to say Chobits was what really drew me in - even though I read that series when I was 10 or so. O__o; I was just curious about the series after finding out that the pretty picture I saw online actually had a "comic" and that's when the nice lady showed me to the lovely Graphic Novels shelf. -drool- @___O Even more love. And thanks to Google and Adult Swim, I got into watching anime instead of just reading manga. (:
