The first anime I watched as a kid was Pokemon, and yeah I loved it ( ˶‾ ꒳ ‾˵) I watch the sub now however, the voices after the first few seasons... *shudders*
Alrhough first anime i watched when I was "getting into" anime was Ouran High School Host Club. A friend showed it to me and I suddenly remembered the early mornings watching Pokemon and got into anime FULLY. It was a rabbit hole I never returned from.
First manga was MUCH later, like a couple years ago. I read Death Note, since that is the one everyone I knew said I needed to read. I still love it, and I watched the anime, and... still pissed off at the movie.
I'll go first;
*Ahem* My first anime was 'Durarara!!!'. I don't count Dragon Ball Z, Yu-gi-oh, or Pokemon, mainly because I didn't really know it was an anime until later on. My brother actually introduced me to these so I'm really glad he did. Sure we bicker (a lot), he can be one hell of an anime geek. But yeah, I REALLY enjoyed 'Durarara!!!'.
My first manga was probably Ouran High School Host Club or Black Butler. But either way, they were outstanding mangas and were really funny at some points, and pretty cool too!
Your turn guys!
