I saw it when I was 7 when goku was a kid and harmony good was kind of working before their legal bull took precident. before that I was exposed to anime thanks to networks using it for time fillers. Transformers season 3 was technically anime (transformers 2010)
my first standout was Taiyo ko no esteban (the mysterious cities of gold) the adv of the little koala and in the 90s it was ronin warriors and samurai pizza cats and in 95 dragonball came back and it was a miracle for me but Z soon came and left me with questions by the ton back then.
