i must of been 11-14 years old and one night i was fliping though the channels and then i went past the sci-fi channel and i caught i glimpse on a animation and i went back on the sci-fi channel ( sci-fi used to be cool ) and it only just started and it was around 11.00 ( i couldn't sleep for some reason ) and the name of this anime was Violence Jack hell town the first 5 min was ok, but the after the 6th min my world changed for ever there was blood, swearing, children being killed, murders , rape, and after watching the first episode i was like ........................ what the hell did i just watch....................... i was like silent for five mins and after that the next episode came on hells wind and then slum king, after it ended i was so hyped that i wanted more, we didn't have internet so i waited till the next anime on sci-fi came on and i watched alsorts violent animes and i freaking enjoyed it tokyo revaluations, Violence Jack, Adventure Kid, bubble gum crisis ( i liked that ), and so on
 
Think so far I've only seen one show the BBFC gave an 18 lol.
Baccano, and I was 20 when I watched it anyway..

As 18+ outside the UK = porn only, not much.

Assume Kara no Kyokai will be 18 if we ever get it, as would be Bokurano and Higurashi.
The first two are prety hardgoing, Higurashi just as a few scenes where you want to look away.
 
Fist of the North Star (And it was my first EVER Anime to boot)

I was 14-15 at the time. Didn't really thing it was that good, but I do remember thinking 'yikes, that's a lot of blood' :p
 
Afro Samurai was the first anime that I watched that was 18+. Didn't really affect me at all. Neither did Afro Samurai Ressurection, despite me being under 18 at the time (I know I was older than 15 though...can't remember exactly how old I was though).

Although saying that, I don't watch that many 18s anyway. The only 18s I own are Afro Samurai Ressurection (I watched the original AS when it was on Adult Swim) and House Seasons 1-5 (although only the last two discs are 18). Although the main reason I don't is, despite being 19, I have no ID xD
 
The Golgo 13 movie. It turned me into a cold blooded contract killer irresistible to women.

I don't even want to tell you what happened after I watched Urotsukidoji not long afterwards. Ew.
 
I think it was Fist of the North star back when Channel 4 was showing it late nights, they kept messing about with the schedule, and eventually just stopped showing it :(
Before that I remember seeing a clip of it on Vidz (they also did a very funny review of the overfiend where nigel runs around Benny Hill-style in the background with a muppet tentacle)
I remember being impressed by the fact Ken could kill a bad guy by just the use of his thumbs and it even had a time delay.
about a year or so after this somebody let me borrow a tape of theirs called "mean and mercenary" which was a compilation made by manga of all the most gory bits from their catalogue of titles, at the time I couldn't help thinking that people had possibly paid good money for what was essentially a montage??? I dunno, maybe this was supposed to be watch with a group of friends while drunk just going "Ah-aaaaawww!!!! ew!!!!!" or something like that.

Quite possibly Elfen Lied? Some of it hasn't been released over here, so I dunno. Hmm.

All except the OVA, which hasn't even been released in the US. Besides, the OVA's hardly worth a 15, let alone an 18.

My first 18s... I can't remember which came first, they were all the Manga Video jobbies, Genocyber, FOTNS, AD Police, Urotsokidoji, Ninja Scroll, Wicked City, Junk Boy...
 
Oh, bad sentence. I meant some other stuff I've seen hasn't been released over here (and therefore holds no rating) so it's quite possibly Elfen Lied.
 
Was going to say Doomed Megalopolis but Amazon has VHS tapes showing a 15 rating. I guess it would be something like Legend of the Overfiend, Wicked City, Demon City Shinjuku/Monster City, Ninja Scroll, AD Police.
 
Legend of the Overfiend was freaking incredible
i think it was all the old manga entertainment animes that had the most gore when they first came out, i swaer if i could have them all with no cuts id be so freaking happy cause they were all violent and i couldn't get enuff.
Legend of the Overfiend
old Fist of the North Star
violence jack
tokyo revaluation
bubble gum crash
........................ good times good times
 
Not 100% sure, probably Perfect Blue or Hellsing Ultimate though. Considering how stylised HU is, I don't think it deserved an 18, especially since Elfen Lied was more violent and had incest and stuff... oh and animal torture...

Perfect BLue deserved an 18 though...screwdriver...>_<

Mine is the Ninja Scroll movie. At the time I got it, I was collecting the Manga Force magazine which where I got my copy from.
