How old were you were you all when you started watching anime regularly
| I was 17 which was pretty late, still felt like a child wathcing it lol |
| How I love a game |
| I was 16 years old. I began watching anime to be able to participate in the conversations of my classmates, so Naruto Shippuden was my first anime. |
| If "regularly" means "consistently on a daily or weekly basis," then basically never for me since renting DVDs from Netflix was only consistent when renting the original FMA and Haruhi, torrents would just sit on my hard drive for months on end, and my DVD and Blu-ray collection is just there to be there for when I actually have the time and motivation to watch something, which is once in a blue moon these days. |
 |
| It was 2 years ago, when I was 21. I was getting tired of watching movies and tv series. One day I saw a gif from BnHA, I thought it looked beautiful and it made me remember the existence of anime. That day my anime binging days began with BnHA. |
 |
| Why those poll options lol. You say that not when u were little, but first one is 9-12.. I started to watch anime regularly when I was 16 or 17. Before that I just watched what anime I found on tv (and VHS). I didn't rly watch seasonal anime back then, other than Bleach and Naruto when i finally caught up to them. |
| I was 14 or 15 and had just gotten good enough internet to expand what I had watched before which was what aired on TV at the time. |
 |
| I didn't even know that DBZ, Pokemon, Digimon were anime (I used ro watch them in local language Hindi) until I started anime watching regularly at 20 in 2015 (starting with DeathNote). |
| 22 probably, that's when I created the MAL account. |
| What are these poll options?? Really? |
 |
| I started with 12 years old 7 years ago, cool |
| I was 14 but I watched some anime before starting watching them regularly. |
 |
| I was 14 years old , I caught up with GoT and I didn't know what to watch next so I started watching anime |
 "I want to show that woman the true Yoshikage Kira. I want her to hear how I feel deep inside. That I want to take your slender neck into these hands and strangle you to death." |
| Looking back at when I opened my kissanime account, I discovered that I was in my late 20's when I watched anime regularly (ie more than one anime film, usually from Studio Ghibli, in a sitting). I watched DBZ & Yu Gi Oh when I was younger, but as OP said they don't count as I only watched them as they were what was on telly at the time, I may have chosen the tv channel, but I didn't make the conscious choice to watch anime. I just happened to like DBZ & Yu Gi Oh from among other animated shows on tv at the time. |
 |
| From February 2018 to February 2019, so from 15 to 16, I watched anime more casually and averaged around 1 to 2 anime per month (started with FMA 2003, then I watched some of the classics and episodes of other shows that looked interesting, some of which that are still on my on-hold list). February of 2019 was when I watched Madoka Magica and started watching anime more regularly, though. |
 |
| Didn't like anime whatsoever up until the start of December 2019 when I watched Chobits entirely for the first time since 2012 (didn't know what anime was back then, realized Chobits was anime like 6-12 months ago) had nothing else to watch at the time (the F1 season had just ended) so I thought i might as well |

| I was 7 when I started following anime shows regularly. There was enough on tv that I was easily watching 4+ episodes a day and 20 a week, or whatever the OP's flaky criteria was. Now I'm 29. |

| I didn't start "regularly", insofar as watching a series intentionally from the beginning in order, almost exclusively online, until I was 25. |
| i discovered anime when i was 13 in 2014 and have been watching regularly since |
| Probably 14, when DBZ was on Cartoon Network daily. |
| I started watching regularly during the spring season of 2012, i was 15 at the time. I was watching it before but not on a regular basis. |

| Probably when I was 12, back in 2005?? I think. I found Inuyasha on TV and got into it and then went and started looking up other series to watch. |
| Lol, the poll. I started watching seasonals at the age of 23, that's what I'd consider regular. Before that I watched it just occasionally since I was 15. |
  |
| I was about 20, got into college but didn't have anything to do for a few months before attending and was in a completely new city with fuck all to do so I decided to watch anime, only then discovering new anime came out every season, and saw Blue Exorcist and decided to watch it. Season had Steins;Gate, Nichijou and Kaiji and I picked Blue Exorcist. |
 |
| I'm 60 now and I started watching regularly about 3.5 years ago so 56 or 57. If occasionally counts I watched a Miyazaki film in 1993 at age 34. |
A møøse once bit my sister... |
| round 16, bout to be 18 now. i dont think giving my age is a good idea tho |
 |
| ~15 years old, saw some shows were on Netflix but waited a few months before I tried watching them |
 |
| I've been an anime fan for like 12 years now, but I never started regularly watching anime until I was 15 when my buddy got me to watch Clannad. 6 years later I'm nearing 200 completed anime. Though technically I first watched Pokemon and DBZ when I was like 5. |

| I watched DBZ, Yuu Yuu Hackusho, and Rurouni Kenshin daily for like 2 years when I was super young. Also watched some Gundam as well, but then didn't watch anything for years. There was a period of time when I was in highschool, probably 16-17, when I watched a bunch (mostly bleach, naruto, some of the old Gundams, code geass ect.) Once again, after about a year or so, I stopped. When I was 19 is when I got really into it, with shows like SAO, AOT and yet another gundam series dragging me back. I have since changed my mind about the quality of those shows, but at the time I thought they were very good. |
 |
I was either 20 or 21 when I started watching anime regularly. I actively started watching anime (as in, I knew that what I was watching was anime) at about 18, but I was only sporadically watching a few shows at that point. |

| Kinda hard for me to answer but I'll try. I've been watching it for as long as I can remember, since the late 90s as a kid. But it wasn't until around 2003 when I was 11 that I started to really get into Anime and would watch whatever they had to offer on TV and rent whatever I could from Block Buster. But I guess I wasn't really knee deep into Anime until 2005-2006 when I started to learn how to download Anime and began buying DVD's that I started watching regularly. so I was 13-14 when I started to watch regularly I guess. |
| I was 13. I watched Naruto on Youtube (yeah, that was possible), and later I really got into mystery thrillers. |
 |
| I started regularly watching anime when I was 10 around about 2014. |
 |
| This poll really makes me realise that I have hit my best-before date... I got into anime early on with pokemon, DBZ and the like. Then I tried to reintegrate into society, failed and socially awkward, 17 y/o me started to watch anime MAL-style. |
 |
| Not counting Sailor Moon, Candy Candy, and Pokémon on TV as a kid, I started watching anime regularly when I was 15. I didn't have MAL or anything like it, so I don't even remember my first completed anime, but it was either Sumomomo Momomo, Kenkou Zenrakei Suieibu Umisho, or Pani Poni Dash! |

| Hello can you please watch Kitaku-bu Katsudou Kiroku |
| Counting stuff like Pokemon and Spider Riders around 7/8. Though I really only got into anime around 11/12 years of age. |
| I began watching in summer 2016, so at 24 years old, but I've been reading manga since I was 16. |
 |
| The Voting Pool doesn't includes ages beyond 15 hmm.... I started watching anime regularly from the age of 17. |

| I started when I was like 5 when bakugan was on, but properly watched at around 8 years old with dragon ball z, and then started watching seriously from then on, now its been years, and all I do is watch watch watch........., its like a drug to me |
| My first anime was at 15 years old but I started to watch regularly at 16 |
 |
| I was around 17 or 18 when I started to watch anime, the only thing I were watching was Battleshounen and Ecchi harem stuff. Normal I watched the big 3 around two times each year. |
 |
When I was really little I would watch like Naruto and DBZ on TV whenever it was on, but I started to watch anime regularly a year after Naruto Shippuden came out so that was 2008 since it came out in 2007, so I would've been 7, but I really started going crazy watching anime just after middle school and that's when I was watching multiple shows at a time and I would binge a whole series in a day. |
