Well when I was a wee lass back in the day, I remember my brother-inlaw always watching some stuff like Akira, Aeon Flux, Jin-Rô , Waga seishun no Arcadia, & also The 1975 rendition of The Little mermaid also by Tomoharu Katsumata and other similar animes. Mainly they were a bit too rated high for me at the time but I think if anything got me hooked it was a movie known as Green Legend Ran by Satoshi Saga in 1992. This is what snagged me i've seen more times than can be counted. I will admit actually didn't expand my anime interests untill I watched childhood favs like: Digimon, Tenkû no shiro Rapyuta, Majo no takkyubin, Rupan sansei: Kariosutoro no shiro, ect. And I eventually matured into things like Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Kôkaku kidôtai (aka Ghost in the shell) Blue Gender, 3x3 Eyes, and others. I think I inevatibitily would have ended up loving anime at somepoint in my life but I really can thank GLR & Ran for my true obsession today.
