Depends what first is, I'm sure I watched some Pokemon/DBZ/Sailor Moon when I was a kid on TV, but it wasn't something I went out of my way to watch and I didn't know it was "Anime".
First the I went out of my way to get and watch would be the first Ghost in the Shell movie, went and rented it, still love that movie.

My first was Tokyo Mew Mew, but if I saw it today I dunno if I'd still like it? The manga was great tho. The most recent remake wasn't something I liked

My parents had the decency to not let me vegetate in front of the TV all day and provided me with things called books, so they avoided having a degenerate weeb as a child.

I saw random Dragon Ball episodes, but that was before I paid any special attention to animation enough to really be invested (I read the entire manga in HS), Pokemon also, but I found the anime idiotic even back then, I do still pick up and enjoy most of the games on their release day.

The first real anime I watched from beginning to end was Death Note, this was back in my edgy phase. Still vastly overrated, I feel like it's too ridiculous to be taken seriously while also solipsistic.
Oh, And Evangelion, I watched the series and I gave up on the rest, how boring and how annoying can an anime be when it stars little shits moaning all the time...
just watch Zambot 3, you'll see how much of a hack Anno can be...

My first anime ever was Sonic X. It has plenty of problems, especially the adaptation of the Adventure games and the Space Saga, but it has some really solid episodes with good comedy and action, so it's still a 6/10 for me.

Probably Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Sonic X, Kirby or whatever other dubbed anime aired on kid's cartoon channels.
I don't have any real opinion on them nowadays, but they were serviceable at the time.

Future Boy Conan, didn't understand anything since I was a baby when I first watched it lEl. But after rewatching it again around 6 y.o, it has ever since been one of my favourite comfort anime. 
I love long running anime + ecchi manga + potatoes = gimme some

Sailor Moon as a kid and it was the terrible original English dub on cartoon network. I don't think I ever watched it in its entirety in order though. I have a lot of nostalgia for it, and I still really love it, but I wouldn't say it's one of my favorites anymore. I've been rewatching the new dubbed version which has been really fun (and is also a million times better) and now that I've watched more anime I can really appreciate how iconic it is. 

The other anime I watched as a kid was Spirited Away. Someone randomly bought the DVD for my mom as a Christmas gift one year, and I watched it all the time. It's definitely in my top three anime movies to this day and probably always will be. I rewatch it regularly. It's definitely one of my comfort watches.

I don't remember the exact title, it was a sci-fi anime about a guy who fought a villainous Zaibatsu and dated his father who fought her under the guise of a mysterious vigilante. Something like a Ghost Ship or something. I remember it especially well, as the scene with people dying from a dissolving body soda fizzy drink, impressed me as a kid. It's been quite a while since I last watched this anime and it wasn't as impressive as when I was a kid, but I liked it.

One Punch Man, It's quite nostalgic in a sense but I did enjoy the idea. I always saw anime as cartoons for adults and never appreciated the effort put into production and writing. Needless to say OPM was great but didn't change my perspective until 2 years later where I gave other anime another chance.

Lucky Star was the first anime I ever watched, and I still love it as much as I did then. Even if I didn't understand the references at the time, it was a pretty good introduction to anime and the otaku world.

My first anime was Ultra Maniac. I don't remember too much about it, but based upon the kind of genres I typically like, I don't think I would really like it all that much.

I might give it a rewatch one of these days to see if its any good or not.

My first anime was Naruto and I still like it. I think it can still stand as a great show and although it has its flaws, it still has a special place in my heart. But I still don't think I can rewatch those early episodes.

Fairy tail, I love it still but yeah too bad the flaws in the later half of s2 to the end of s3 were too like obvious, especially s3. Neverthless, watch s1 a lot (rewatch) again and again at least 1 episode per week, so fun ;) (watched it in 2019 btw)

Fate Apocrypha was the first anime to take my chastity, and I was only in it for Astolfo.

Revisiting it, I don't like it as much I did the first time.

My first anime was Dragon Ball Z. And yes I still like it. Though I do believe it can be improved a lot. Nevertheless I still love both Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball Super as they are along with the Canon Super Movies. I hope it becomes even better in the Future.

I think it would be either Speed Racer or Astro Boy when I was a small child in the mid-80's.

I loved them as a kid, but they didn't age well to my adult eyes.
