I got curious thinking about it, what got you guys into Digimon? Was it the Anime? How about the card game? Vpets? Video Games? Tell me!
I got into Digimon through the first Digimon Movie personally. I owned it on VHS as a young lad, and I would constantly watch it, watch it, watch it. It was my all time favorite movie! Then my love of Digimon evolved from there when I got Digimon Battle Spirits 2 for my Gameboy Advanced SP. Then the shows just reinforced my love for Digimon, and then I joined the communities, and that introduced me into a Whole new world....

I grew up in the golden age of 90s anime, and I got hooked on digimon at a super young age - even before pokemon. I watched it religiously pretty much, and learned how to tell time super young just to figure out when it came on tv

I think I just stumbled upon it on 4Kids one day, lol. I would only catch some episodes of it though, I never sat down to watch the whole series till yeaaars and years later. In fact it wasn't till I stumbled upon this community that I decided to give the first season a full watch.
But honestly, as a franchise, I'm not super into Digimon. I mostly like the Digis themselves rather than the games, series, etc.

We were pretty late on the uptake when it came to Digimon. I don't know the exact years, but it's vaguely somewhere between late elementary and middle school when our friend introduced it to us. We watched the Digimon movie about the Diaboromon and the Greymon/Parrotmon fight together- I think we watched it a few times, actually. But she was basically my intro into it, including letting me play on her Digimon World Dawn file, and I just got more into it from there, especially since we would go frolic in the park with the Digimon we could see. I only found the communities later.

Anyone remember that "save the net" browser game? That's how I found out about Digimon, all those years ago, when I was like 3. Then I saw they had some digimon videos at the video store, and I've been a fan of the series ever since.

It was the anime. I remember being a little kid watching tv (worlds greatest baby sitter) I forget what show but I remember that after it ended I was about to get up when the opening scene of the first episode of season one came on. I remember seeing the animation and how different it was compared to the cartoons I was used to. I was mesmerized by it and enthralled by the story. After that I watched it every time it came on. And over the years, without even trying, every time there's a new season of Digimon I will be flipping through the channels and i will see Digimon listed on the guide and I'll go "Eh, Digimon!" then select it and it will be the first episode of that season.

I got into Digimon because of Digimon Tamers back in the early 2000's. I was watching the Pokemon anime before then and I started watching Digimon Tamers. I was really impressed by it and basically abandoned Pokemon. I've been a fan of Digimon ever since. I've always liked the idea of having a familiar, an animal that you have a bond with. Maybe this is one of the main aspects of Digimon that makes me like it so much.

I watched the first season on TV when I was little. My family were camping a lot, my dad brought an old but small TV, it was good enough to watch the regular channels. But he had to install it as fast as possible in the morning. It had an antenna on top, it was difficult getting the channels to work, but always the digimon intro played and I was like "yaay!" Been watching digimon anime ever since.

I'm probably the same story as every other older (20s) tamer here. I fell in love with the first season on TV, fell in love with the first movie, and then took to the internet to find communities of fans and ended up stumbling across Digimon Are Real on the old MSN groups. Since then I've just been following along with the community, coming and going but always kind of lurking.
