Hooked up in 04. I had inadvertently watched a little on tv in the early 90s as well. Speed racer was the first. A traumatic experience. Animatrix was the earliest, in a sense that I knew, that this one was an anime, and enjoyed it. Founded a club(several dozens of members, who gathered a few times a week) back in my fan-days, in mid 05. I had continually supplied my own local anime server, reaching almost 3ters (riffled through all of em too). That was years before the HD+ era came to modernize anime-world. Practically abandoned Asian animation on April 08, and had stopped keeping a close watch during 12, but managed to get acquainted with oodles of titles still.
I am a big sports anime aficionado. And enjoy almost any realistic and ripe titles as well. Always on lookout for arthouse and avant-garde stuff too. Not often I do manage to unearth something worth watching these days. Not even amvs striking my fancy much now. That's why I returned to cinema for the most part. But prefer well-made animation regardless of the country of origin even today ;).
Started reading manga profusely in late 09 and novellas in 16.
P.S. Feel free to check out my novel in progress: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/270357/the-power-of-blood-vampire/

Hey, thanks!
I do enjoy a very wide range of 'stuffs :D I hadn't thought about the modern art bit before. That's an interesting observation :)
Cheers
Thanks man. You have a pretty interesting list yourself.
uhhhh what are you talking about?
It seems to me, that having a proper conversatin with you is impossible, sorry but I won't answer you anymore after this.
Well, even if you don't like them, me having watched them is the reason I have 7 Months on my list, which was your original question.
That, I don't know. I know many people my age who aren't as lazy as I am.
This is not being a trend, it's just that you don't like the general art of anime. Each his own I guess. But saying that many people are strange because the watch anime, just because you don't like the art, is a bit over the top in my opinion.
People are different, in things like these too. I want to enjoy anime, so I prefer correct translations over sloppy ones or ones where the meaning is lost. Where's the point in watching a subbed anime if most of the sentences make a) no sense or b) aren't in sync with the original. I have watched subbed animes where the subbing group used foul language (like fuck and the like) all the time, even though the character didn't us these words at all or with a totally different meaning. With things like these I can't enjoy the anime, can you?
If you don't know how to respond to such an answer, don't make a comment in the first place.
I'm sorry if I sound harsh, but I can't cope with your way of reasoning very well.
Greetings
