I remember Cartoon Network Australia's Toonami Blocks. We never got movies, just a rotation of Tenchi Muyo, Cowboy Bebop and Bubblegum Crisis: Tokyo 2040 on Fridays, and Orphen, Trigun and Inuyasha on Saturdays. Neon Genesis got mixed in there too on Saturdays at some point as well.

Until very recently the only anime I had watched was the stuff I saw on cartoon network when I was a kid.

There used to be a picture of Jupiter with a sign that said "Looking for Hentai? GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!" or something but I dare not look for it at work.

I watched Voltron and stuff like that on TV in the 80s but didn't have access to much of anything until I got into college.

I'm also 30. I grew up watching Slayers and Yu Yu Hakusho that my friend bought on VHS. I never had cable TV as a kid, so no Toonami for me.

:hfive: fellow tricenarians.

I never had cable, but got the first release VHS boxset for Escaflowne and random tapes of DBZ. :v:
My middle school internet usage was limited primarily to PlanetNamek.net, bad AMVs from Ginga GiriGiri, and checking my email and chatting with random dorks on dbz.com. :cool:

I remember one of the early forums I went to had a FTP hosting "high quality" Tenchi Muyo episodes at 80 MB a pop which was far more than I was willing to download at the time.

I remember webrings, animated flame gifs, and "under construction" signs. 30-something anime fans represent. My only VHS fansub experience was getting EoE through the mail from a friend of a friend of a friend, though.
