My first anime was sailor moon if that counts! I was 7 or 8 and it played on toonami. I also watched Tenchi Muyo (probably spelled that wrong) at the same time. I tried to watch Attack on titan recently, but found it way too intense.

I never got into anime but my first was probably Powerpuff Girls. I also have random memories of watching some Pokémon and I did watch Avatar: The Last Airbender with my cousins.

Or actually maybe it was a Ghibli movie? I still love those. My favorites Kiki’s delivery service, but I don’t remember what my first was. I remember watching Castle in the Sky, Totoro and Kiki’s at my friends birthday party. My friend was much more into anime and we always watched movies at her house. I know she loved Sailor Moon.

My first anime was Naruto and I was a bit disappointed. But I liked My Hero Academia much better when I got around to watching it.

Attack on Titan was my first, and I don't regret it.
