I started early. Star Blazers and Battle for the Planets (which I hardly remember anymore). Also a little Speed Racer in reruns.
I know I watched several Japanese animated American productions like Transformers. But also dubs like Robotech (which I thnk I only saw part of) and Voltron (Both robot versions).
Then there was a lull. Then there was the late night anime block on the Sci Fi Channel when they started up. But those were of the like of Silent Mobius and Robot Carnival. But also Galaxy Express 999.
It was around that time that I rediscovered Star Blazers on VHS, and got more heavily into Matsumoto anime starting with Harlock Saga. That is also about the time I started listening to the shows in Japanese with subtitles. It pretty much stayed there and other space opera anime until around 2006 or so, when I started looked up parodies. First Excel Saga, then somehow I found Azumanga Daioh, (probably from AMV Hell) and then Haruhi and Lucky Star in 2007. Its has been a ride since then.
