Day 1: Very first anime



Star Blazers!

Sue me, I was like twelve, ok?? I find it unwatchable now, but I used to get up at 6:30 in the morning for it then. The eyes! The unrealistic body proportions! The melodrama!

Properly speaking, I suppose I should call it the first anime I recognized as anime, since I was hooked on Speed Racer at age 6, but had no idea that wasn't American. This I knew was something different from the usual Saturday morning cartoons.

I've never actually seen that anime! I thought it was only a novel series.

The Souryuuden anime was what inspired me to learn Japanese, because I wanted to find out what happened in the novels after the anime ended. You should have seen me with a pile of dictionaries, spending hours on each page.

Haha, yep, that's me and Koori. I should definitely check out Souryuuden, as a tribute to sensei, if nothing else.
