A school friend showed me a few of the classics on his computer way back when, I guess about 2000.

Anime Expo `98 or 99

I believe it was Nic's Super Rad video, or Tony's El Hazard video I saw first, it was playing between videos in one of the video rooms. Never had seen anything like that before and I decided it would be a cool hobby to do. So yeah, got enthused about making an AMV from the first one I saw.

How very appropriate.

I think the first one I saw was Engel. I was in high school and at a summer camp. A summer camp for geeks where we learned to code. This roughly coincided with my introduction to Cowboy Bebop. :)

I came across mine at AWA 6(More Than Toast's Cucumber vid), but for some reason I think I was a DBZ vid the year before but cant remeber how.

I lol'd

Anyways, I watched my first amv on some random site. I don't remember what site it was though. Than I watched some crappy Naruto amv with Chop Suey [when I first saw it, I thought it was so cool :uhoh:]
A year or 2 later after that amv, I made my own amv.
