First Anime
I was reading ElvesAteMyRamen's post and MewMewstreet commented that the first time you watch anime, you were probably all thinking: why does he have white hair? Or purple eyes? Because.. offcourse; no one has purple eyes.

You are just not used to the style, and the weird clothes and the impossibility that seems so normal to all of the anime characthers. So I decided I would tell you guys about MY first anime.

I was used to cartoons as being for children. Cartoons were Disney and childrens shows. Disney with big eyes and talking cute animals and stuff that children at every age could watch. Then one day at school, due to some canceling of lessons and free time, our teacher had brought a cartoon for us to see, she said. We were only a small group of people, we went down to the cellar of the school and sat down in utter darkness to watch the movie on the wall itself.

Cartoon, I though, now how boring is THAT? I was actually NOT looking forward to two hours of talking bunnies and Disney. I had never even HEARD the word anime at this point, and NEVER seen anything like this. What was shown to us was: AKIRA.

Wow.

BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD EVERYWHERE!
One of my fellow students even thought one guy was handsome. I was like: he's drawn! How can he be handsome?! Now I've learned, offcourse they can be handsome, you just need to get used to it.

For those of you who have seen Akira: you know that was a kick start. For those who havn't seen Akira: go see it! Akira is one of the most reputated animes out there and a classic piece of work. It's a MUST.
