Recent Survey in Japan gives Shocking Results in "What Show Got You into Anime?"

[DEMON]

You know what's shocking? Pokemon/Digimon is not listed, therefore I can't vote

 

Oh wait, just noticed there was a second poll, but still can't vote, apparently have to give an answer to both which I can't as none of those anime in that other list are ones that got me into anime (they are all too new, are these Japanese people like under 20 for these to be the top animes?)

Pokemon/Detective Conan/Gundam Wing are what you might call got me into anime when i was a kid. didn't knew it was called anime at the time, later in 6th grade i got back into anime watching Naruto and a while after Gundam 00 also i didn't expect a Certain Magical Index to be in that list and number one at that lol

[Ka-Pi96]

Pokemon was the first I watched, but To Aru probably was the first anime that I really enjoyed and actuall knew was an anime unlike Pokemon.

[Doom]

Useless poll.

90% of those options are so recent the mangakas weren't even born when I started watching anime.

[Parker]

Toonami used to be awesome. Dragon Ball Z, Mobile Suit Gundam, Rurouni Kenshin, Outlaw Star, Zoids and many others. Dragon Ball Z is what "got me" into anime I suppose, even though I'm not a huge fan of anime, I do like some shows though.

Dragonball Z!! Was seriously the highlight of my day as a child coming home from school.

[Guest]

I expected a hentai to be the number 1. bleh. Im shocked.

[DarknessKey92]

Useless poll.

A)90% of those options are so recent B)the mangakas weren't even born when I started watching anime.

Gonna Assume you are trolling simply because of the Fact that:

A) Out of that list of 30 titles the only Most Recent Ones Are: "Attack on Titan", "Kuroko's Basketball", "Free!", and "Sword Art Online".

That's %13.3 of them being most Recent.

The Rest have been around for years, so your supposed %90 of them being "So Recent", is By far Way off.

 

B)Anime is Mainly based on Manga, Light Novels, Visual Novels or A Video Game. It's been Really Rare to have instances where the anime is released before/without the Manga(or as you put it Mangaka). The Most Common Motion For Years is that Anime has always been Released After the Manga, because the Anime is being Based off the Manga.

My pick isn't even on there!

 

While I had watched some shows in the past, The Slayers was the first anime I'd really gotten into, going out of my way to buy VHS tapes and everything. Definitely one of my favorites, even now.

 

Yu Yu Hakusho is another good one. Gotta love the master of the hiatus, Togashit.

Where the hell is Berserk? Kentaro Miura's classic manga about traveling by boat.

[jemmie]

The show that got me into anime was Death Note, but that's not one of the options. I'm a little surprised it's not.

Digimon is the 1st anime I saw. Or at least I remember. That and Dragon Ball GT.

 

Then I watched the other Digimon series as they appeared in Portugal, but only started to really follow animes with Fullmetal Alchemist. Started but then stopped appearing in TV. Few years later I remembered that anime so started watching again. Great story. And then I saw Sword Art Online, Shingeki no Kyojin, Sailor Moon Crystal and One Piece (still in One Piece because there are so many episodes so I stop here for anime until I finish One Piece)

So by your Standards you consider 24 years as "Recent" or how you put it "So Recent"....Strange! I would have guessed that barely 2 years be considered as "Recent", not 24.

Also I made the Poll to expand the man's Survey that was focused on the Japanese Community, now to a Global Scale; since many people here are from different countries aside from Japan(Do i expect over 10,000 votes? Of course not!, but by looking at the poll so far; the results show A different outcome).

You're not the first person to point out certain Anime are not listed here in this Thread or his survey, the man Made his Survey only listing 30 options that he felt were sufficient enough.

Do you really think he would list 500 Animes? just like this one that's done over a global scale tallied over the years by a Bayesian Estimated System.

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/ratings-anime.php?top50=best_bayesian&n=500

He conducted this test in 6 days, so it being only 30 options seams decent, sure people are mad that their anime isn't in the options...but looking at them, all of them aside from doubling Mobile Suit Gundam are well deserved candidates.

The man Asked people currently aged in range from Teens to mid 30s.

Imo it was just a joke...

 

But imo recent should be considered 2-3 years.

[PSNP is crap i left]

First anime i watched was Dragon Ball Z. 

 

The anime that got me into well...anime was Naruto.

[JaM]

huh? no Voltes V or Daimos.... man... I feel too old now... ~_~

 

I think I need to watch more "popular" animes... only knew 14 out of 25 in the list... didn't even know what the no. 1 is o.O

 

*hides in the bush to avoid angry mob*

Recent is usually coonsidered a decade-old. Most people I know (including myself) usually expand it to anything that's been released since the early 2000's. Following that, I consider crap like Narutu, One Pice [of Turd], Bleach, Gurren Lagann, FLCL, Inuyasha, etc., as recent.

 

Just to name a few, I'm sure I'm forgetting many of the relevant ones.

Just going to add some you're missing and I think you ought to include:  Astro Boy (1963), GeGeGe no Kitarou (1968) and Mazinger Z (1972). I also think we ought to incldue Akira (1988), even though that's a movie.
