I plan to buy more: FMA, Shin-Chan, FLCL, Eiken (boobies ^_^), Paranoia Agent.
Also, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Vol 1 is gonna be swapped for The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya: Complete Collection when it comes.
I may get more of my favorites that I see at a store like Case Closed, etc...
The only anime DVDs I own are for FLCL. The only other sets I really want are the complete sets for Cowboy Bebop and NGE.
Otherwise, I don't really care to actually own most animes. Just watching online or on TV is fine with me.
I don't buy anime DVD's, I mostly stream or torrent D:
Mostly because I'm a bit of a closet otaku in terms of family.

Why are you ashamed if your family finds out you watch/like Anime?
Only anime set I only have is NGE, because it's not too long, and it's awesome. Only other series I would consider are Cowboy Bebop or FLCL.
I'm really trying hard not to copy Kaz, but it's impossible.
I have some anime stuff merely because I don't want to fill my computer with anime stuff (although I do have a lot of Bleach on it)
NGE
FMA: Complete + Movie
Cowboy Bebop complete (it was only like 30 bucks at a garage sale XD )
Samurai X
and some DBZ seasons...just the good ones for nostalgia
Animal Crossing movie
Blood+
Gantz
Pokemon the Movie (VHS)
Pokemon 2000 (VHS)
Pokemon 4Ever
Pokemon Jirachi Wish Maker (DVD)
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (subbed)
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (dubbed)
Trinity Blood
Zoids
I think I still have my Pokemon VHS tapes somewhere.
All on VHS:
Pokemon Episodes 1-3
Digimon Episodes 1-3
Pokemon Movies 1+2
No time for anime collecting... >.>

Lol, 2nd grade. ;-) I think they were all gifts, although at that age, yeah, I had time for about anything. Enough to memorize the entire 1st Pokemon episode line for line. No joke. >_>

I'm not ashamed. It's just that I'm trying to ease my family into knowledge that I'm a crazy otaku. I'm dropping bigger and bigger hints...making an extremely cute anime girl my wallpaper, ordering a Japanese shirt, ordering Nendoroid figurine...that last one was a bit too steep of a step, apparently, because I succeeded in weirding my mom out a lot with that one. I watch a lot of anime that are more "cute" than "cool", so if I start buying tons of anime all of the sudden, it'll make more awkwardness and I hate that kind of thing.
Anyway, doing it this way saves me money :P
I only been into anime for about a year now. I did not even know the word otkau untill last week when I herd Hbi2k, MasakoX and KaiserNeko (you may of herd of them from there abridged series) podcast. Any way heres my Anime collection.
Pokemon dvd with episodes 1-3,
Every pokemon movie from the first one to Jirachi Wish Maker (some dvd some VHS),
and The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Complete collection.
I want to start collecting anime but there's no way I'm buying more pokemon movies. I'll buy the first Death Note DVD when it comes out and Sola if the DVD's ever come out. I'm also thinking about getting a NetFlix subscription.

Thats not entirely true. I been into anime ever since I discovered Adult Swim but i don't think I went from being an casual anime otaku until about a year or so ago and did not know that word to describe myself until a bout a week ago. Actually I'm in a very similar susurration with my family that you described. My dad hates anything Japanese so I'm trying to keep it a secret from him right now. He was really surprised when I let him caught me reading Death Note the other day.
All I have is my torrented Outlaw Star episodes. D:

hm, I guess there are some differences as to how we got into anime. My first anime that sparked me getting into anime was Lucky Star while it was still being aired, and that anime is at the center of otaku culture. Point taken.
by the way, I looked up susurration and it's "A soft, whispering or rustling sound; a murmur."

The first anime that really got me hoocked and made me want to start looking for and collecting anime was The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. Before that I watch in on cartoon network and I think I always liked anime better than the western stuff but I can't remember when I started to recognize anime as anime and not just cartoons.
How was your first anime(s) that got you interested were Pretentousness of Mary Sue (Haruhi XD ) and Lucky Star? Surely you guys were around when the "Rising Sun" block was up on Toonami X_X;;
But yea the first ones I got serious about were on Adult Swim when that block first came out (Cowboy Bebop, Trigun...and for a while Inuyasha before I realized how repetitive/mundane it was)

I never really was into anime because I thought it was all shonen crap (of course, I didn't know it was called shonen). Then I started looking around the Internet more and saw that some anime, oddly enough the stuff NOT on American TV, was actually decent and I kinda liked it. One day in Oldsider, 1L (aka KAKASHI_THE_COPY_NINJA) posted a thread where he linked to a Youtube video of a clip from Lucky Star, specifically the one in the anime store. Then I figured I'd see if there were episodes on Youtube, and I watched the first episode...I loved it. Absolutely loved it. Thought it was weird at first to love watching a bunch of colorful Japanese high school girls discussing random food, but...I loved it. So I kept at it and I was hooked.

I did not watch the Rising Son block because it was on to early but I did follow anime of Toonami and on Adult Swim. I did get into it quit a bit but I only knew about the anime that make it to cartoon network. The one day I was on Youtube and I came across this glory's anime called The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. After that I started to look for anime online. I watched quit alot of fansubs and some along the way became an otaku.
