Hellsing was the first dark anime for me. Bringing me to maniacal laughter on numerous occasions, I knew I was owned by the genre forever.

Mine was Darker than Black, if that counts as a Dark anime. I'm not so sure about the category "dark".

My first was when I was still in 4th grade. I remember my step-dad told me not to watch it so naturally as soon as he fell asleep I put it in. To this day I can't recall the name and have had no luck in finding it. I do remember the nightmares tho.

Interesting. My 1st was Death Note. It strengthened my anime addiction and got me into more psychological related anime.

Elfen Lied.

There are two types of anime - almost as good as Elfen Lied, and not as good as Elfen Lied.

I'd say Gantz was the first truly dark anime I watched. I don't consider most of the above answers quite 'dark' enough. And some people simply posted the first anime they watched, disregarding the dark aspect entirely...why?

Elfen lied (Though at the time I didn't really even know about dark anime. So I didn't get any maniacal laughter out of it like others)

Higurashi. Pretty touching. Especially when you look through (WE MUST GO DEPEER!) gore scenes. Although without making people belive in some weird deepness on purpose like fanboyz do. I would say that Onikakushi was the most hmm... horror-like? But still, Watanagashi and Maekashi are those chapters which I'll never forget.

My first Dark Anime was Death Note even though I barely remember what happened since I watched it like 4 years ago.

Shiki was what really got me into Dark anime though.

Well i guess Elfen Lied, but i don't count it as a Dark Anime, more like demented, over the top and stupid. If we dont count Elfen Lied, than Paranoia Agent is my first.
