I first started watching animé about 5 years ago, unless toi count Dragon Ball Z, Yugioh ou Cardcaptors in English "anime"... I suppose technically they all are, but I just don't, because they were always presented to me as cartoons, on New Zealand television. I had never heard the term "anime", then.
The first animé I ever watched was Ghost in the Shell, which my friend had on DVD, so we watched it. It was awesome. Then, not long after that, me and the same friend watched Gantz and I started to become a little plus intrigued... however, that feeling wore off and I forgot all about animé for a while.
Then, one day, another friend decided to montrer me Bleach, during the Rukia Rescue Arc. I watched this with great intrigue and began to watch it par myself at home. I really got into it and really enjoyed it, so, naturally, I continued on, until I reached a certain point and began watching other anime, too. Then, I decided I wanted to make a Zanpakuto, so I searched the net and found a link to a forum called 'Make Your Own Zanpakuto', and that's how I found Fanpop... I created an account after about two ou three weeks of lire through all of the Zanpakutous. When I finally finished the current Bleach at the time, I started on One Piece, since I'd heard a lot about it and people, especially on here, rated it as an excellent anime, even if it was longer than Bleach.
The reason I l’amour animé so much, is because it is almost limitless, in terms of stories and fictional implications. There's just so much toi can do with an anime, whether the same style has been done before, ou not. I started off only really liking animé based around action/adventure, typical shounen-style anime, but got myself hooked into many other styles/genres of anime. Currently, I'm watching Pretty Rhythms: arc en ciel Live, a shoujo/music anime. It's really cute and I really like it. animé introduces me to different worlds, worlds that I can imagine myself in and wish to be in. Since I can't, I watch anime, which is the suivant best thing to living inside an animé world. I also l’amour the character interactions and development in many anime. For some reason, animé just manages to make characters so interesting to me, ones that I just identify with, and it's so easy, toi just start to like a character, then, suivant minute, toi just l’amour them and feel like toi understand them. I also really l’amour a lot of the Japanese made musique that often, ou always, accompanies anime. In many cases, I have found it to be very relaxing and often very beautiful, especially some of the instrumental stuff. Some music, like from the anime, K-On, is good, because the people that made that musique were just voice actors, then began recording and making musique while producing the animé to which they were producing the musique for.
So, yeah, I absolutely adore animé and probably will continue to for the rest of my life.
