Ahhh... Tis I fell for, when I was a young lad of the age of 17.
My sister gave me her boyfriends whole collection of anime (I wonder why?). And from then on, it was a downward spiral into a vicious anime addiction.

Oh yeah. And mostly from then on, it was the help of Broadband. God bless Fast internet connection. I cannot imagine downloading anime with a dailup.

But before that I've read countless manga's and watch really old Doreamon and DBZ anime's dubbed in 'Bahasa Melayu' (Malaysian official language). But never really was very interested in it.
