I definitely don't fall into the "hardened anime fan" category.
I started making "AMVs" when I was 17, but they technically weren't AMVs because I only used video game footage (Final Fantasy mostly), because I didn't really know anything about anime.
When I was 18, I discovered animemusicvideos.org and was very surprised that there were other people besides me making music videos to stuff just for fun. I had thought I was one of a very small number of weirdos who would enjoy such a thing. ^^;
At that point, I started getting into anime also, because I realized that only using video game footage would really limit the amount of unique videos I'd be able to make. Plus using anime in my videos enables me to enter contests and occasionally snag prizes, like anime dvds, which I can then use to make more videos. mwahaha....haha
Oh, and I'm currently 20.
