anime

oldest thing is the 1960s animation test called pop, oldest real thing I think is either lodoss or the fire emblem OVA
I forget what is older
I started watching anime in 2016, at the correct age of 18, so I do not have nostalgia for older stuff, so I find it hard to get through
I started watching anime in 2019
Besides Pokemon and sonic x which I watched as a kid
I genuinely think episodic shows that are >50 total episodes are not usually paced very well and are hard to get through
yeah I do not count pokemon and sonic x
I still also do not count that
I think if it was on tv as a kid in your western country, it does not count
Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak I think if it was on tv as a kid in your western country, it does not count
i mean i would Count Ghibli movies
I wouldn't
Ghibli is just japanese Disney
My first anime was actually konosuba. It was alright. I started watching the most popular ones and didn’t really like them, finally I got to Gurren Lagan and I was hooked on robots.
My first was Kill la kill
By your definition pika, my first anime was sword art online, and that disgusts me
Listen Dialga, I am not counting cybersix as my first anime
that was on Canadian late night TV because it was written by Canadians, despite being directed and animated in Japan
By more general standards my first anime was 4Kids Yu-Gi-Oh
I guess mine was technically Pokemon or Bakugan if we count everything.
Pokemon and its not even close
hand me down VHS from my cousins
I also have not
I have seen bakugan, but only a weird scattershot of episodes
I only add things to my list if I know what episodes I have seen up to chronologically
So despite having seen probably 80% of pokemon diamond, I do not have it on my list
Same but shift it downard to gen 3 and diamond
although I did not watch gen 3 on tv, I watched bugs bunny during that era
I started with some vhs’s for gen 1 but gen 3 was airing at the time, I think right before battle frontier started?
I was nostalgic for gen 1 because of VHS, and gen 4 because of tv
I like how you saying that, I can tell exactly what era you started
lmao
I know lucky star is like the gen between anime boomer and modern
early 2000s pop anime
I will probably watch lucky star at some point, I like the opening
Same
Leg getting me to watch gabriel dropout was basically the start of me seasonally watching shows
yeah, very great
the last year has been too stupid with how many good shows there are
so I have been watching too much
I want it to calm down back to an average 8 shows a season again
Its not even just sequels, although that is always at least half my seasonal list
of my top shows of all time, 6 of them are from the last 2 years
There just have been a lot of really good shows
if we widen it to 2020s, throw tsubaki, 86 on the list
I’m glad interspecies reviewers is there
interspecies reviewers is a masterpiece dialga
it perfectly executes its premise
and has a weirdly compelling amount of worldbuilding
