I do (but i never got into them), does anyone remember Pogs?? That was a long time ago, I had a awesome Pog collection. That was like 4th grade for me when that craze was started!

Ah, pogs. Those kicked ASCII. I had so many of those things, and so many slammers. Strangely enough, that was fourth grade for me, too? What grade are you in? Anyway, I remember I sold all of mine for like $.50 a piece right before they got old. ...... and digipets! except i never got into those.

12th grade (senior in HS). That was just a guess though, not sure what grade I was in. I'm guessing your your username you were born in 1986 (unless you liek that number) so then I would be a year older since I was born in 1985.

Yeah, I never got into those either.

I used to watch Battle of the Planets [aka G-Force 5] when I was little and I watched Vampire D when I was about 10, but didn't know it was 'anime'. Later on, a friend sucked me into a marathon watching of all 52 subbed eps of Fushigi Yuugi. From there it spread to Roujin Z, Ayashi No Ceres, Utena, Slayers, etc. It's like a virus, a plague, with benefits

I keep sharing the plague...

Its all that Rosi O'Donnels's fault that they got so popular....

What really got me into anime was CN. Although I hear that they really ruin some of the animes. But anyway, about a year ago I started watching Inuyasha. At first I was kinda like hey, this is pretty cool. But over time I've seen more and more anime, and it has grown on me. I'm not sure what it is exactly that draws me to it either. Nobody else in my town likes it at all and so I can't really talk to many people about it. But there is just something there that really draws me to it. Now I watch Inuyasha religiously and I'm slowly expanding my anime collection, starting with Rurouni Kenshin.
