| My first anime was Evangelion and my fifth one was Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood and those are two of my favorites. |
 |
| No my first ever anime shows were Saint Seiya and DBZ and none are on my absolute favorites, btw I gave them a sentimental score. |
''Enemies' gifts are no gifts and do no good.'' |
| no, but I will say that my 4th or 5th ever anime watched was Yugioh 5Ds way back, and it’s still an all-time favorite. |
 |
| My first anime was Death Note which is still a favorite, but after that one the next 5-ish animes I watched were actually some of the worst I've seen. |
| My first 3 that I finished were Digimon, transformers, and totoro. None of them were in my favorites. Closest favorite was Digimon s1 but that was as a casual fan at the time |
 |
| They were: DBZ, Naruto, Pokemon and Death Note, and... Nah, but I still can enjoy them tbh(the one that I would enjoy the least is prob Pokemon.). |
 In most cases, the MAL Average Scores don't mean anything, here is a question: were the works made before 2000 all shit? Why are they so damn scarce in the Top 50? Think about how MAL is quite literally a filtered amount of the Anime fanbase. Here's a timeline of the Top 15 in which you can check that, almost always, the scores are affected by the freshness, popularity and other factors that have nothing to do with quality. |
| Yes! I wouldn't count DBZ, Digimon, Pokemon, etc; as I was too young to really recall any of it or even follow it, but the first anime I actually sat and watched in it's entirety was Inuyasha and I still hold it dear. Obviously I cherish it partially for nostalgic reasons, but separating myself from that, I still fully enjoy it, no matter how many times I watch it. I'm well aware of it's flaws but there's just something about it I can't help but love. It just resonated with me, and has stuck this whole time. |

That old man surprised me with that bomb.  |

You're preaching to the choir here, fellow Inuyasha aficionado. It was my second, remains in my #1 favorite slot, and with nary a prospective dislodge in sight. To me it was, is, and will likely remain the greatest story ever told. A lot of the complaints folks have about it are the filler and repetition, but I love filler and repetition if I love the characters and world enough, as I do with this show, so that doesn't bother me at all and is more of an asset if anything. I like that it takes its time to tell the story rather than a straight march from plot point A to B to C like a runaway train. Wandering around the feudal-era Japanese countryside with the gang is just charming, at times relaxing, at times exciting, and overall pleasant. |
| not absolute favorites but for sure most of the anime that got me into anime are super high rated and for the most part in my favorites |
| No. They would be Dragon Ball Z, Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh, and the highest of those on my list is a 7. I have that feeling with videogames, but not with anime for some reason. I think it's because I can still fully appreciate new anime, but I fell out of love with videogames so I can only look back fondly on old ones. |
  |
| Fullmetal alchemist is still one of my favourite franchises. kill la kill isn't one of top ten, but it's still up there. squid girl isn't as good as i remember it, but it's not terrible. |
| Non of them in my favourites and not even in the top20. Maybe Noragami is good enough to be there, but nor Shimoneta or Kobayashi. Just found some better than them. |

WatchTillTandava said: FacelessVixen said: If by "first 1-3 anime they ever saw" literally: No. I like Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, Pokemon, Digimon and so on well enough. But unlike Escaflowne, I never felt the need to follow up on them after the Saturday morning cartoon era ended. If by "first 1-3 anime they ever saw" when getting into anime: Yes. I first watched Neon Genesis Evangelion and Fullmetal Alchemist in the mid to late 2000's and they're both in my top three for being pretty decent shows to start off with. I don't mean literally first anime you ever saw any minutes of. I saw a handful of Pokemon Indigo League episodes out of order on American television when I was 8 before I had the slightest concept of what anime was. I'm talking about anime you consciously and purposefully sat down to watch in order to completion. Then yes. I would say that the first anime I sat down to purposefully watch until completion was Death Note and it still remains a favorite. |

| I don’t even remember the first anime I’ve watched. |
  |
| DBZ, Naruto, Bleach and One Piece are the first 4 anime I've ever seen I think, and I still hold DBZ and Naruto dear to me, as well as One Piece even with its declining animation/directing quality. Naruto and DBZ were never my absolute favorite though so yeah.. Even though up to that point all I've seen was Naruto and DBZ, they never gave me the impression that they're the best of the best, but I do love those shows a lot. |
| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| Naruto was my 1st anime who i watched as a child, i did finished it tho. But its not in my favorite list. On the other hand, Summer Wars and K Project which was my 2nd and 3rd anime are in my favorites and i have no plan to remove them. Both gave me a really strong first impression to me and got me into anime. |
| Until like months ago, Death Note (which was the third anime I ever watched from internet) was in my top 10. |
| Gurren Lagann and Kill la Kill are 2 of the first anime that I watched besides Pokemon, and they are still shows that I consider 10/10s to this day. The only thing that surpasses them for me is JoJo. |
| My first three anime were Kirby Right Back at Ya!, Danganronpa 3 and Wattamote The Kirby anime still has a special place in my heart but the other two I mentioned weren't that great so |
| Yes. Those shows have had important influence on me and I re-watch them time to time or at least episodes I liked a lot. Those series being Sailor Moon, Ginga Nagareboshi gin, Dragonball Z, Cyborg 009 2001 version, pokémon Indigo league and Moomins 90's version. Sailor Moon being most loved one tbh. |
 |
| No, I first started watching anime for dumb reasons, and I'm now watching it for less dumb reasons |
| Yes, in fact, the anime that made me watch more anime, One Piece, is, easily on my top 5. I'll still consider it a classic, for probably, FOREVER. I can't wait to see it getting finished, in 4047. |
| Nah. That's definitely not the case for me. I don't even remember what exactly they were, but I know whatever they are, they aren't my favorites. |
| Durarara and Yugioh are probably the only one's I recall |
 |
| I think my first three were GITS season 2, then season 1, then D Gray Man LOL. The first Ghost in the Shell was pretty darn good from what I remember, but no, sadly neither of my first anime is still an absolute favourite of mine. D Gray Man did have some ass kicking Rock tunes courtesy of Abington Boys School though! |
| For me my first 3 were probably DBZ, naruto and yu gi oh none of them are in my top 20 even the first 3 who really bring me to the medium witch are mirai niki, evangelion and sao. Plus i am curently watching legend of galatick heroes and this as the potential to be my #1 of all time after more than 1000 anime watched. They are probably even more anime witch can take place in my top 20. |
 |
| My first three were DBZ, Naruto and Hellsing, but no, there are better ones out there. |
