| Been watching anime since 2006-2007 My father had DVDs of Slam Dunk, Yu Yu Hakusho, Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z Naruto, and a bunch of hentai in which I watch and rewatch for far more times I can count. Then back in 2012 (or 2013?) I became a full-time anime watcher and watched a lot of generic romance, action, etch. anime in which I kinda regrets since I wasted a lot of time in them. But thanks to them, I know what anime is bad or not from first glance. Then back in 2015 when Gintama was airing, I binge the entirety of Gintama. Then I basically rewatch Gintama everyday for about God knows how long. Then in 2018, I got bored with anime. I read manga, light novels, and played visual novels way back then so I wasn't just bored with anime, but also with manga, light novels, and visual novels. 2019, I restarted my anime life again with Gundam along with ufotable's first tv shounen Kimetsu no Yaiba, I got really into anime again. I slowed down a bit in the later half of 2019 cause of school, but in 2020 I basically become once I was in my peak. Though I can't do the 5 anime episodes at once, I can still do the 3 anime episodes at once. |
 I wasted all my time in rewatching to the point of my rewatch total is higher than my overall anime total lmao |
| I watched anime all my life, as a child I was watching every shounen there was, Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Yu-Gi-Oh, Shaman King, Dragon Ball, Pokemon, etc. and now as a manchild I prefer watching slice of life and cute girls doing cute things. |

| In 2015 my cousin introduced me to anime world. My first anime was Naruto. Until this pandemic I only had watched few animes like hellsing, Naruto, FMAB, Code Geass and Death note |

| It was quite recent, when people were going mad over DDLC, I wanted to know what the hype was about which kinda got me interested in anime for some reason, in a gaming community I'm in people were obsessed with My Hero Academia at the time so gave it a go, loved it and just kept watching stuff I thought looked interesting |

| I was finding lowest form of entertainment. I tried porn, b-grade movies, soap operas but nothing came close to the feeling of watching worst quality. Then I watched anime and my brother watched hentai. There are some qualities for sure but anime/hentai both are the greatest shit in the world. I love shit as well so I started watching anime. |

| I watched pokemon at age 3 and I liked how their heads got all big when they'd yell. Then I fell into naruto, bleach ect. And now my taste is all over the place ill be watching black clover then switch to an episode of k-on or monogatari depending on my mood. |

| My friend got me into this, but it was Animax that made me a regular watcher. |

| When I was watching some piano videos on Youtube, some weebs were always referencing "Your lie in April" in the comment section. I checked it out then bam, I immediately transformed into a fully-fledged WEEB. |

| My country's TV channels before aired a lot of anime like Doraemon, Card Captor Sakura, Hunter X Hunter (1999) etc back then and then I watched them for the first time and it was so entertaining than I really didn't want to miss even an episode of them. Then I became an anime fan ^.^ |

| It was back in early elementary school. A new kid moved in next to me, and we quickly became friends. She told me she likes anime and showed me her blog and drawings. I realized that most of my favorite cartoons were actually anime, and from that point on I sunk like a rock. |

| one of my friends is a jojo fanboy and tried in every way to make me watch jojo, even making me watch lelo lelo lelo out of context, i started jojo, finished all the anime and started reading the manga, than i found out that jojo was an anime and not something apart from everything else thanks to my classmates, started watching other animes. |

| I grew up binge watching dbz and naruto on tv. i just remember that when i was around 15 i saw that naruto was playing on tv and felt the nostalgia kicking in. so i caught up with naruto online and from that i also remembered i saw a few episodes of bleach when i was a kid. Watched Bleach and from that point on i became a filthy unhygienic weeaboo. |

| I used to be an MMORPG player. One day, I found a soundtrack mod, which soundtracks are taken from Sword Art Online. I tried it and loved it, so I tried watching Sword Art Online. That's how I got into anime. |

| It was sometime in November last year when I was told to watch Aot. I didn’t really like Aot so I thought I wouldn’t watch anime ever again but I watched my hero next and loved it mostly because I was really big into superheroes. Over the spam of 5 months I watched some anime like Haikyuu, Sds, Fairytail and Demonslayer and Liked it but wasn’t really into it but when quarantine came and watched my first romance anime The pet girl of sakarou-sou I absolutely loved it and started watching a lot of anime. Anime came at a great time since some of my favourite shows were either ending or starting to get really bad(Arrow, Flash, the walking dead, lucifer) |

| Hello! Finally introducing, Loona! |
| My first anime was Naruto that aired on Free-to-air TV channels. I used to watch Yu-Gi-Oh GX also when I was a little kid. But I was a huge fan of Naruto, so I started looking for internet download websites in order to watch it, I did not like Japanese dubbing at the time because it was exotic to me, but I had to suck it up, that was my first time watching Japanese dubbed anime, but I still was more of a Naruto fan than anime fan. But then a good friend recommended me Death Note, so I started watching and could not stop, when I was finished I thought to myself "Holy shit anime are so good, I need to look for more", and then my fellow cousin recommended me Sword Art Online, and when I finished I said "That's it, now I will be an anime fan for the rest of my life", still am to this day. So, Naruto, Death Note and SAO were the main culprits. |
| Stay on Cartoon Network until 9pm and start Dragon Ball Kai. It was incredible, fists and pure action, totally different from the light comedy animations that they broadcast frequently. |

| Maya the Bee (yes, it's also an anime), The Moomins and Silver Fang in the early 90's when they were aired here on TV. |

| Before even trying it, heard a few other people in past schools were having trouble with classmates because they liked anime. Later, I was referred to go try out SAO by a good friend, since it was easy to watch and on Netflix. Loved the first half of the first season, and just kept going on from there. Granted, for a few years I averaged like maybe watching 5-8 anime series a year, which doesn't seem like a lot, but my main problem with getting into anime is finding really good anime. Like I can binge a good series in a day, but it takes anywhere from a week to another month to find another good series. |
| a friend wanted to watch a series with me, then after every once in awhile we would watch random animes until we stopped talking. i was incredibly bored so i decided to watch some on my own, then just started watching all the time |
| my brother, i would make fun of him for watching anime. but then once i watched aot i never stopped |
