WELCOME TO MY ANIME WORLD 3

My other true passion -besides writing- is Japanese Animation ('Anime' for short), I've always enjoyed it ever since I was little, back in Mexico. I started off watching it in the early 70's and haven't stopped ever since.

THE BEGINING
It all started back in 1971 when I was 4 years old and loved watching Paar Man (Top left pic) in spanish, of course, and another one of my favorites was Gigantor (Bottom left pic) which was super super cool. After those two, many, many (and I mean many!) more followed. Of course I also watched other stuff from Hannah-Barbera, Walt Disney, etc. But to me nothing will ever compare to original Japanese Animation. Ever.
