Anyway, toonami has been dead for years, they've just been beating it's corpse since then.

While the "advanced robotics" and "Don't fear failure" commercials are huge nostalgia bombs, they're still awesome.
You don't see these kind of commercials anymore, no one even tries.
Hell, you barely saw them back then except for on toonami.

Damn right! I got fucking pissed after they reran the episodes during the Dark Tournament. Then I lost my cable.

8 years later, I got the box sets. But I still didn't get to see Kurama hand Karasu's ass to him.

Luckily I grew up on old toonami, so I have good and fond memories. I think Toonami got bad around the time tech TV came out so I started watching that, then Adult Swim got big about the time G4 bought Tech TV, maybe there is a bit of discrepancy, but still Manly tears.

You ask us, "Why do you care?"

You tell us, "Every anime Toonami ever showed was terrible."

You call us underage. You call us 'dubfags'. You sage our threads. But why? Because you do not understand.

We care, because this was our childhood. We aren't children anymore, no. But we were, and we're young enough to be able to look back and remember.

We watched because it was awesome. When you're 12, men screaming at each other for 25 minutes straight is awesome. When you're 12, giant robots are incredible, no matter what the story behind them is. When you're 12, that ditzy chick that somehow magically undresses and dons a miniskirt is really fucking hot. When you're 12, watching hot, nubile women fight over a guy that has some kind of magic lightsaber thing that never works makes you feel funny. When you're 12, cartoons are great, and the ones from that place that makes sushi are even better.

When you're 30, you're old and bitter. When you're 20, you can remember. And when the things you remember cease to exist, you don't forget. You reminisce.

Never watched it. I didn't have the attention span to plop myself in front of a TV before 8:00 until I was 14.

i thought the point of watching TV was that we didn't have the attention span for anything else.

Toonami and Don Lafontaine, both in the same month.

I don't know if I can take this.

I would watch an endless rerun of the original 4 or 5 years of Toonami over and over until I die.

it was the START of something, the START of our addiction to anime

or at least, our knowledge of it

You always remenise when you're older. Plus, those commercials were fucking boss.

its nostalgia. When your drive a car, your first car, it doesnt matter if its beat up and battered, YOU'RE FUCKING DRIVING.

and even when you get a Ferrari, you look back on that car fondly.

This shaped my interests of today. I used to skip my swim meets and homework to watch Toonami from start to finish. I remember hearing the ending song to Outlaw Star for the first time and being in awe. I am so so sad. The original block with SM, DBZ, Tenchi, Gundam etc. was my first intro to anime. -_-. End of an era.

They still mix it up on fridays, though. They have a mix of old and new.

They just stopped airing the Brak Show again because it's fucking awful.

Truth. Then again, my first car was a '77 Pontiac Bonneville, so it was fuckin' sweet regardless.

This. Fuck yes.

G Gundam, Gundam Wing, Yuyu Hakusho, Dragonball, all that shit and more interspersed with Moltar/Tom being awesome. I'd watch it forever.

People need to see how Toonami has affected us, and what younger folks had missed out on.

I remember sneaking out of bed to watch midnight run.

I remember unleashing a fucking ragestorm when they pushed it into a Saturday block and replaced it with Miguzi.

It was the one block on CN that I was the most excited for, every day I would watch it.

Bang.
