First, This is from my own history. so it maybe not true.
my first anime was macross, airing at "TVRI" and fascinating by it. about 1994 when i move up to jakarta. it cool to see plane transfrom into robot. then it cut off. then "Indosiar" private company television play morning anime (only on monday). it start from 5:00-10:00.
still remember.
- 5:00 sentai time (similiar with robocop)
- 5:30 gundam wing (Just communication are too COOL)
- 6:00 corrector yui (nice and it funny)
- 6:30 ultraman tiga (my fav ultraman)
- 7:00 news
- 7:30 american cartoon
- 8:00 normal air program
- 9:00 dragoon ball
- 9:30 normal air program
then i started my junior high, vacuum but somethime watch noon anime. set on SCTV consist of 2 anime: sakura wars and Dual (the OST was So Good)
my real otaku time is in high school. when meet the same interest. from then i watch Tokyo underground and Gundam SeeD (although i can read english, fansubs already showing it for free. but i still buy it from my friend, who brought it from animachi about $2) at that time. internet was luxury things. average internet speed was Dial-Up (example : average Mp3 is 5mb. i download it about 15mnt. 1 hour dial up cost $1) and believe it or not. even at this time lot lot of people still buying anime on anime specialty store (exmp: animachi, hobbyjapan, else)
our main public view about otaku is quite harsh. they keep talking "so a childish, rubbish stuff, Grow up" so it was a part why people buy anime. cause it can be camouflage as movie DVD (in Indonesia Piracy is business. you can sell piracy stuff without concern being caught. law in Indonesia = money)
then i found my world at internet. finding anime focus Forums (this is where usual place for otaku to talk and stuff. indoanime) and found torrent (RS MF are stuff we can't afford. it Expensive and need Credit Card)
