'''Animatesexual''', also known as (formerly) '''animesexual''', '''mangasexual''' or '''eminafictic''', is an [[Asexual Spectrum|ace-spec]] identity and a form of [[Fictosexual|fictisexuality]] where one is exclusively or almost exclusively attracted to anime/manga characters.

The earliest known use of the animesexual hashtag on Tumblr was by user ghaost, July 26th, 2012, who stated that: "ever[y] time [they] try to figure out [their] sexual orientation [they] just get really confused and watch anime instead".<ref>{{Archive|Site=today|URL=https://ghaost.tumblr.com/post/28017164032/ever-time-i-try-to-figure-out-my-sexual}}</ref>

Animesexual/mangasexual may have been first officially "coined" as a queer identity on August 15th, 2016 by Tumblr blog Beyond-MOGAI-Pride-Flags, where the term was defined as: "Being sexually attracted to anime/manga characters". Beyond-MOGAI-Pride-Flags also created the animesexual/mangasexual flag on the same date.<ref>{{Archive|Site=today|URL=https://beyond-mogai-pride-flags.tumblr.com/post/148996995420/animesexualmangasexual-pride-flag}}</ref> The post was tagged with "#a-spec", "#aro-spec", "#ace-spec", and similar tags, suggesting that, under this definition, animesexual was intended to be an a-spec orientation (in a way similar to what the term is generally understood to refer to today).
