I'd like to say Naruto, but I recently recalled it wasn't the first anime I watched.
Nostalgia is hitting me hard! Has anyone here watched Kiba, an anime with Spirits used like a Pokemon but more like a Ghost from Shaman King? It had sword fights, drama, shard casters, some kind of laser swords, had awesome civilization, was pretty original when interpreting fantasy, and it even had really compelling story. It could be considered an old anime, especially with the graphics, but its first broadcast was back in 2006 from Japan. Every time I'd hear Amir Gaoul's music theme when he was summoned, I would always feel the chill. Even now after nearly ten years, the anime was still hitting me hard with Amir Gaoul's appearances in the screen with his awesome BGM. How about you, what's your first anime?
