If I had watched any other series besides FMA when I was first getting into anime, I wouldn't still be watching. After Sailor Moon and Pokemon, which annoyed me at 10 with their females, I watched FMA and was like, 'my god! Strong competent women are all over the place!' Then I discovered that FMA was the exception rather than the rule. I still say I'm a fan of animes (i.e. some in particular) instead of a fan of anime, as in the genre in general.
