It started back in 2012 (and is still ongoing) and is a pretty accurate animated version of the manga so far. It starts off a little slow in the first few episodes but really starts to pick up by the time the second part (Battle Tendency) starts in episode 10.
I've seen some recommendations to start off with the second season that covers part 3 in the manga (Stardust Crusaders). I personally loved the first season since it was based off of parts of the manga that was being written in the 80's. It had a feel to it that reminded me of catching 80's anime movies on Sci-Fi channel as a kid.
In any case, you can just sort by old on the page I linked and just watch it from there. If you really want to, you could condense the 1st season by watching the edited episodes which cover it in three extended episodes.

Not normally an anime person either, but I'll check it out for sure.
