To me, my oldest Anime that I have is Lupin III: Pilot Film that was released in 1969.

As series that's concerned, that would be Lupin III which the first episode was released in October 24th 1971.

What about yours?

These shows:

Anime 80-nichikan Sekai Isshuu
Chiisana Ahiru no Ooki na Ai no Monogatari: Ahiru no Kwak
Ginga Nagareboshi Gin
Ginga Patrol PJ
Jungle Book Shounen Mowgli
Meiken Jolie
Mitsubachi Maya no Bouken
Nils no Fushigi na Tabi
Seimei no Kagaku: Micro Patrol
TaoTao Ehonkan Sekai Doubutsu Banashi
Tanoshii Muumin Ikka
Wanwan Sanjuushi

Mitsubachi Maya no Bouken seems to be the oldest from that list. (Aired: Apr 1, 1975 to Apr 20, 1976)

I have also watched couple of short movies which are even older than those, but I can't remember their titles anymore.

In my case it's that one very short animated movie from the Meiji era, whose actual title was lost in the course of history. I mean of course Katsudou Shashin (literally: "motion picture") from c. 1907

I have a few that came out in the 1960s. I don't think I'll go any earlier than that as I can't find anything that interests me pre 1960. When it comes to anime at least. I watch a lot of 30s, 40s and 50s live action films and I like them.
Also a lot of pre 1960 anime are just lost which is unfortunate.

Last 5 years, I've watched Fist of the Northstar (1984) since I was heavily invested on Jojo series and Yakuza series.
Last month (Oct. 2023), I'm watching Lupin the third (1970's) as my oldest show

@AMBITZZ It got an extra point for being old. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It's not hard to accidentally rewatch something that's 3s long.
But as a kid I watched the Pokémon Movie way too many times.

The film Belladonna of Sadness from 1973 is pretty nice if you have patience.

The short Kobutori from 1929.

I need to watch more old stuff.

Doraemon (1979). Next to it are three from 1988, so it's got a pretty big gap.

For me It's Urusei Yatsura ( 1981 ) .. Who get a remake in 2022.

Morpheus: The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work... when you go to church... when you pay your taxes.
It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.

Belladonna of Sorrow (trash) is the oldest movie in my list, Fist of the North Star is the oldest series I've seen that I have listed, but I have seen one of the early episodes (pilot I believe) of Sazae-san (1969)
