Well i think it started with Pokemon/Digimon. The first couple seasons of Digimon were cool as with Pokemon. But after awhile they just became boring and repetitive.

Then I began watching Dragon Ball, then Dragon Ball Z. But after the whole thing with the Pink dude, I lost interest in the series. Dragon Ball I only lost interest when I no longer able to watch it.

Then it went to Inuyasha, not the best of shows but at first I thought it was cool. Then I began watching Trigun, which was a really cool show.

So its kind of a mixture of all that that got me interested in Anime/Manga.
