Sunday Questions #2: First Anime

Hey guys! Welcome to week two of Sunday Questions! (It definitely needs a better name than "Sunday Questions", though. If anyone has a suggestion, let me know.) If you missed last week's question, you can take a look here.
This week's question is: What is the first anime you watched that made you love anime? What show or movie do you remember seeing and saying to yourself, "Hey, I like these Japanese cartoon thingies!"
The first anime I remember liking was The Cat Returns. When we were kids, my cousin Eve was really into Studio Ghibli films (she always did have excellent taste ) She gave us The Cat Returns for Christmas one year, and we absolutely loved it. It's still one of my favorite movies.
What was the first anime you loved? Respond in the combox, and have a great day
