I think I was 15 or so? We didn't really have a lot of channels at the time, and it came on the Tv one day. Didn't know what it was, but it got me hooked pretty quickly. Haha the Gore in it didn't bother me too much. Especially looking back on it now

Glad to help :) the studio names probably weren't necessary but I figure if it comes down to it, googling "your name - CoMix wave films" will have much more specific results than just googling "your name"
