| mine is clannad and at the time i dont think i had a MAL account and pretty much started my journey on watching tons of anime i had just finished FMA and i was on youtube and i somehow got to a video called "violent anime girls(funny)" so i watched that and saw at the time a boy holding a pig then getting kicked into mid air (by now i knew that was sunohara getting raped by kyou.) and it made my day and searched for it everywhere on google just typing boy holding pig and getting kicked by girl and clannad had came up in a forum about an episode mentioning the samething, so i just started watching it from ep 1 the end... "season 2 was about to be realeased by the time i finished.." so how did u discover yours? recent? old? youtube? XD ftw. you dont have to read my story i think it drags :L |

| Gintama, I watched the video with the Neo Armstrong Cyclone Jet Armstrong Cannon. |
| I went to ANN and checked the top anime list. Then I read some descriptions and picked what sounded interesting to me. And that concludes the fascinating story of how I watched Mushishi. |
| 1 - I went on animeseason and saw AnoHana on the front page. 2 - I then went on MAL and added it to my list. 3 - After all that I went on YouTube and searched up a trailer/preview. Watched it, and was amazed. |
 |
| Friends were telling me about this gruesome anime and I wondered what it was. People were telling me to try the first 4 episodes and if I did not like it to drop it. These people did not watch the anime themselves yet except for the first 4 episodes. They all didn't seems to want to go past that at the moment. So I gave it a try and keep going past 4 because I loved it so much. This anime was Higurashi. =D |

| For Higurashi, I found it while searching for "creepy animes". Madoka Magica, I was looking for something great with Mahou Shoujos in it. Steins;Gate and Maria Holic where recommended by friends, and Ghost Hunt I found out while reading a thread around here somewhere about creepy and scary animes, and I found out a lot of people said Ghost Hunt was like that. Couldn't help but go straight to watch it. |

| Id say a early morning in the 90's watching that movie channel "Starz" got me into Anime Then Cartoon Networks Adult Swim,Toonami |
| Hikaru no Go, i saw it in the top 10 of animenfo One Piece was just always there... and one day i just decided to give it a shot |
 |
| Hangliding off the side of Mt. Everest when a vision came to me...in that vision was a slice of life anime made by Key. |
 |
| Friend told me about it. xD |
| Saw some people on the forums fangasming over how awesome LOGH is. Needless to say I was intrigued and thus... I joined them xD. |
| What do you think you're piloting? Great Mazinger? Dangaioh? For Pete's sake, this isn't some robot cartoon whose main character is an autistic kid or some punk. - Kiichi Goto, Mobile Police Patlabor |
| Found a picture of one of the main characters and after many tries (and fails) to put her into my sketchbook I rather chose to watch the anime:) |
| While trying to get back into anime after an extremely long hiatus, I stumbled upon the glorious and wonderful show known as Panty & Stocking w/ Garterbelt. I loved absolutely everything about it, from the crude humour, sex jokes to absolutely EVERYTHING. I was like damn, what awesome studio animated this crazy fun show to watch? Gainax. It was then I read that Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann was a really good show from them so I went and checked it out not expecting much.. and was I amazed. It is like the epitome of every boys dreams moulded into a 27 episode animation of manliness and over the top action. |

| Just randomly watched it... |
| Through MAL, believe it or not. When I first joined, i saw SO many people talking about NGE, that I decided to watch it and see what all the fuss was about. |
| Surfing forum boards... Dramatic experience. |
The Internet is a very bad place, you should never go there. |
| My cousin borrowed me the FMA movie DVD, and from then I watched FMA, and years later I heard about FMAB and had my mind blown. |
| A friend of mine told me to watch Code Geass (out of the blue and it really surprised me since I didn't know he liked anime). I wasn't really that much into anime at that time, but I was rewatching old animes that aired on TV a while ago that I really liked, so I watched it and then become amazed (practically spent 24 hours glued to the screen) and it was what really got me into anime. |
 |
| all by complete accident. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| Friend suggestion :P |
| I was left alone with a friend's laptop and was told that I could watch some anime if I wanted. I started watching FMP Fumoffu and really enjoyed it. I found out later that it was the second season. Then I went and watched the first season (and third) and fell in love! |
| "I'm not a nerd! I'm a specialist!" |
| i was roaming netflix anime. well i was bored and started watching clannad off the snyopsis. by episode 3 i went and got it in japanese with english subs. |
| I dislike liars <img src="http://i1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg580/Matt_Alvarez/Araragikunlied-2-1-1.png" /> |
| Was googling for something or the other and ended up at a MAL review. The review impressed me so I took time to poke around the site. Was looking at the top rated list and noticed Legend of the Galactic Heroes. Looked interesting so I read a couple reviews and went looking for a source for the show. |

| When the internet told me to watch Guilty Crown. xD |
 |
| WITH THE HELP OF KYOJI!!!! No I'm quite srs and thus my love for Gundam began. |
| #PrayForKyoAni |
| With the help of MAL. Well, most of my favorite anime with the help of MAL. :P |
| It was one of the highest rated, most favorited animes on MAL. So I watched Gurren Lagann. And effing loved it. |
| <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/animelist/angelfire892&sclick=1"> Being sane is over rated :) |
| My favorite is Blood +. I discovered it when I was browsing through Netflix and I almost skipped it because I thought that I wouldn't like it. But I did watch it and now it is my favorite. |
| Well I don't think I have a single favorite, but I have quite a few that I consider my favorites. Naruto, the original series. That was one of the best anime I've seen. People call it mainstream, but it's popular for a reason. It had awesome characters and the story is second to none, not to mention it always delivered. I saw it through Cartoon Network. Naruto really influenced my to get into anime more. Sora no Otoshimono, can't live without this one. I got a recommendation from a person on a forum. I've still yet to properly thank the person for showing me. FLCL. I watched an episode or 2 on Adult Swim, so I decided to buy the DVD's. I can't go a month without watching an episode from it. Durarara!! I also saw this on Adult Swim. I really love this series. A true masterpiece. Baka and Test. Believe it or not, I saw a banner for it on MAL. So I decided to give it a try. And now it's one of my favorite anime of all time. Thanks MAL! |
| Gits and Gundam seed were on my tv when i was 10. Honestly at that age i barely understood whats going on but i watched it because i had this huge crush on Motoko. I saw a picture of Misato and thought she was pretty cute so i watched evangelion on youtube at around 12,i also got really lost halfway through to what was going on so i skipped to all the scene with Misato in it. Also note i rewatched this series later on,when i was a lot older. I wouldnt it add to my list if i didnt. :P Madoka was a recent thing,i dunno the concept of a magical girl show gone depressing sad dark was always interesting to me.It was a good show overall though. |
| lol @ img bbcode not working, mal is such a great site |
| I started watching a few anime on netflix starting with Ah! My Goddess (which I watched in 1 sitting) then lead to other stuff such as Clannad and Spice and Wolf. While these anime are all on my top 10 list for sure my absolute favorite is Claymore, everything about it I loved =D |
| I played the VN of Sister Princess, then a year later my cousin hooked me up with the LN of it which I loved, then I watched the anime raw online in 01' and I loved the series just as much, I own the DVD, both PS1 games, and a bit of merchandise related to the series including almost all of the official artbooks. I have the LN of Repure as well but I only bought it a month ago and finished it last week, I'm glad I got it because it's way better than the anime which was slightly below average. Sailor Moon I seen during the 90's, however by the time it aired on Toonami I was nearly done with the series and finished it while most viewers were on the first season. Before anyone says do I or have I lived in Japan, the answer is no I seen this through bootleg VHS and is the only anime I've ever seen through these means. |

| Someone rec. it c: |
| Jump Ultimate Stars. "What? This Gintoki character eats parfaits and can ram his scooter into things? I should watch this." |
| On anime websites there was always Bleach, Naruto and One Piece somewhere in the most popular, top favorites or pictures from all three shows. I was already watching Bleach and Naruto. Put off watching OP for the longest time. But eventually started watching it aaand that's the magical story of how I found One Piece. |
| It was back in 06 when my friend (subliminally) introduced me to anime. Though it wasn't recently that i started watching again. I was bored that day so i opened this anime that was lying in my ancient HDD. Started watching heaps more since. xDD |
| First was Naruto my favourite.. But then I was Katekyo Hitman Reborn! I saw some pictures I think.. Then watch it. Since then I have loved it!!! |

| I found TTGL and Clannad here http://www.listal.com/list/my-top-10-anime-seriesova Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood - I saw it on TV Higurashi Steins:Gate - I found it in the Spring 2011 list. I heard it also from my friend that it is good but I continously ignored it. But later I decided to give it a try |
| oh yes, my other fave was baka to test, again i found that on youtube and i realised i had been watching season 2 up to episode 3 :L fail -.- |
| please make my breakfast every morning for me sweet cheeks! *bowling position" |
| I found Higurashi from a video that said "Top Traumatic Expierences of Anime (2/2)" or something. I had a dream about Clannad before even watching it, and proceeded to watch the entire series in one day the day after my dream. I'm watching Clannad: AS on DVD right now and my tear are blurring up my keyboard. This is the ending of Yukine's arc. Shakugan no Shana, well I started on season three because of an AMV I found of it. Bakemonogatari from rec. |
| Dont touch me I'm in despair. |
| My friend let me borrow the DVD for most of the anime like Gintama, Rurouni Kenshin, Bleach, D.Gray-man, and Death Note. I then found out the greatness of Gintama and D.Gray-man ^^ |
