grew up with doraemon, totoro, and some gundam.... liked them but wasn't really into anime until high school when I met my friend and he liked anime... I got "culture shock" brute forced when I watched eva... marathoned those 5th generation VHS tapes until like 5am.... also started watching anime with other old shit like birdy the mighty
the rest was history... I watch pretty much everything except for sickening shojo cough*utena*cough and H
