Fist Of The North Star, back when Channel 4 in the UK used to show anime during the late-night slots on the weekend. From what I've been able to find, they supposedly also aired 3x3 Eyes, Doomed Megalopolis and Cyber City Oedo 808 as well. Pretty amazing to think that one of the UK's biggest TV networks would air something with an incredibly niche audience.

Wow, I must be real old compared to a lot of the people here.
Back in the early 90s, Nickelodeon aired quite a lot of kids' anime, including Maya the Bee. The one I remember most is The Noozles, about koalas from another dimension.

It works. The show is far more respected in Italy because of it.

I have an incomplete recording of that from Channel 4 on VHS somewhere! Channel 4 used to show adult cartoons after the late night anime.

In the US, the show was aired on some premium channel but who's name escapes me (probably one of Showtime's). The dub was the Manga Entertainment release with the new music and all that. Of course this is the TV series from the 80's, not sure what channel might have ran the 1986 movie on though.

I remember seeing the theme song on YouTube, but I didn't realize Maya The Bee was an anime. The more you know I guess. : P

Attack on Titan was my first, but I blame Steins;Gate for dragging me into anime.

Sailor Moon, followed quickly by Digimon, Cardcaptors, and Monster Rancher.

Pretty sure it was Astro Boy.
My kid brain remembered it as being particularly gloomy too, as some episodes were multi-parters where they would end on a cliffhanger of Astro Boy getting hurt badly. However, the idea that it would pick up positively in the next episode was alien to me, so it felt more depressing than anything.
I also remember some really old animation called The Twins of Destiny, but I think it was Chinese.

Probably Digimon or Mew Mew Power (I know it's actually called Tokyo Mew Mew, but I watched the 4Kids dub, so bear with me).

I'm sure some names are hard to shake off. I'm sure there are those that still call it "Samurai X" instead of "Rurouni Kenshin" for example.

It's hazy because it was so long ago, but I wanna say... Dragon Ball GT? Might have been Yugioh.

The first one I remember was Battle of the Planets/G-Force, the heavily-edited TV dub of Ninja Science Team Gatchaman.
A few years later, I watched Robotech and Tranzor Z on American border stations that showed syndicated cartoons, and TV Ontario showed a handful of non-giant-robot-related anime like Belle and Sebastian (Meiken Jolie), Fables of the Green Forest, and The Little Prince, and, a few years after that, I rented Akira and My Neighbor Totoro, plus Warriors of the Wind, the edited dub of Nausicaa.
The first really "weeb"-oriented anime I ever rented was Project A-Ko.

Pretty Sure it was Cowboy Bebop. It was the episode Ballad of Fallen Angels and I was able to stay up late and watch it because I thought I'd have Monday off because of 9/11.

Either Speed Racer when they played that on Cartoon Network or Sailor Moon which I think was airing early morning on USA at the time. First thing I saw that I KNEW was called anime, back when I thought the word rhymed with "time", was most likely either Iria: Zeiram the Animation, Dominion Tank Police, or Project A-Ko on Sci-Fi's Saturday Anime.
