For me, Elfen Lied was the show that got me into Anime. Sure I had watched Toonami shows like DBZ and seen other shows like Pokemon, but I didn't know they were anime. I had stumbled on Elfen Lied using On-demand when I clicked a wrong category and figured I would check it out. I watched the first episode and had never seen anything like it before. Form there, I tried to find the other episodes (this was before I had a list of go to Anime streaming sites, so Google was my only hope) with little hope and relied on Youtube to learn more about Anime. I eventually found the DVDs for the show in Best Buy and bought them on the spot. Years later I have seen many Anime, but Elfen Lied will always hold a special spot as my first true Anime experience.
