Tonight starting at 12:30pm to 1:00pm Eastern Standard Time and Central standard Time. Only two new shows will premiere tonight on Toonami called Deadman Wonderland and Casshern Sins. This reason for only these two shows specifically is because Toonami will be having a rating success test course. During this time, Toonami will be monitoring the amount of viewers and rating of either of the following shows, if everything goes accordingly. We may have what use to be old Toonami back. Anyone who liked Toonami and what they once produced, please tune in to both of these shows and possible watch the full length of them if possible. It will really give everyone a great chance to have a network that many people once enjoyed, if this fails. This will be the last run of Toonami on Cartoon Network ever.  |

Well I'm geeked. The two new series both sound pretty decent by the little bit that I saw on Wikipedia. Should be good. Haha.

Another disappointing thing about this Toonami return is that SARA won't be involved in any of the bumpers (unless of course they use stock featuring her) since they said it would cost too much to make her. She should come back if this becomes a success.
That said, I'm stoked about Toonami's return, it's the return of my childhood and I'm watching every single show even Bleach. And I hate Bleach with a passion. But I want this to be a success, I want to see the shows they talked about bringing on be brought on, along with some of the good oldies. Besides, I'm more interested in seeing the bumpers than the actual shows.

So my quick thoughts on the return of Toonami, more detailed ones will be found in the official anime/manga thread, at least show-wise. I liked it, it was great hearing and seeing TOM again, though I was disappointed in how little it was. We did get a game review, which was great. Maybe not so much the second time, but I get why they did that. That part was great.
As for the line-up well, it was mixed.Bleach, which I only payed half attention to, sucked. Deadman Wonderland blew me away with how awesome it was. If it wasn't a 5/5, it was 4.8/5, it was that good. Casshern Sins was um, the animation was nice. FMA:B was good as normal, I half payed attention to it too but that's because it wasn't the best of episodes and I've seen it twice already. I have never seen anything Ghost In The Shell and I'm not sure I want to again. One scene was awesome and one kind of disturbed me. Cowboy Bebop was great . . . really makes me hate myself for never watching it before (okay, that's a lie, I've seen one episode years ago and thought it was freakin' awesome too . . . but couldn't continue watching it for reasons I'll explain in the official anime/manga thread).

I thought somewhat on the same basis. I thought seeing Tom back was very cool and he hardly changed a bit. Deadman Wonderland was definitely a different type of anime I'm not necessarily use to. But from what I saw, it was probably the best show of the night, great storyline, cool plot, interesting characters etc. This could be something worth watching weekly. As for Casshern Sins, I wasn't really into it. It somewhat dragged on although there were a few intense action scenes, the whole outlook of the story wasn't the most creative nor interesting I've seen. |

Space Ghost Coast To Coast and the Brak Show never aired on Toonami. I think you're thinking of Adult Swim with the latter half of shows. The only connection that Toonami has to SGCTC is that Moltar was the original host of Toonami. |

n my opinion, I thought Toonami was great! The new shows (Deadman Wonderland and Casshern Sins) were great and I'm intrigued to next week's episodes. Sure TOM was limited to a few appearances and Sarah wasn't there, but it has to be expected; like Steve Blum said in his latest video, "We are building a better cartoon show from the ground up." [AS] and Jason DeMarco have very little funds to work with and it's gonna be a while before we see more of TOM, classic shows, and Sarah returning to the Absolution. We just have to be patient and keep on watching. The more people watch and the better ratings are, the more money [AS] and DeMarco will have for licenses and other stuff.

They weren't on Toonami, but they also weren't always on Adult Swim and SGCTC predates adult swim by a few years. I had thought it was on Toonami too, but i think it may have just aired right after the block at one point. Anyway, I was disappointed with last night. It was the same anime block that's been on Saturdays for years, except they added two new shows and neither were very good. I would have loved to see at least a little bit of classic toonami shown, but even aside from that I would have just liked something different. |

I was extremely disappointed with the line up but at the same time I understand that they have very little to work with that the moment. I just hope we get to see some more classic anime shows and some American shows that were previously on Toonami. |

Yeah, I never said SGCTC was made for Adult Swim or only aired exclusively on it since I'm aware it was on for years prior. But the fact of the matter remains that if we are talking about programming blocks, Brak and SGCTC were definitely on Adult Swim, not Toonami. As for the line-up, it's been said before but this thing has to be a success for the line-up to change. I have no problem sticking through this line-up for awhile to help Toonami to go into the direction they want to. Then again, it might be easier for me because I love FMA:B, and both Deadman Wonderland and Cowboy Bebop were awesome, as I've said previously. |
