The way I came in contact with this is sort of funny; UFO Robot Grendizer was the first anime I watched as a kid. Its REALLY old, about 1975-1976. It used to be my DADS favorite anime, and he used to show it to me when I was younger. Obviously he didnt, know anything about the fact, that his favorite show was an anime, or what anime was, nor did I at the time:D Later I realized that Grendizer was an anime That was pretty funny... But yeah one of my earlier animes, right after this I used to watch Dragon Ball everyday.
