Toonami is back...... sort of.... maybe....

Postby Drdiggit42 » 01 Apr 2012, 07:29

So last night at midnight Toonami was on adult swim as a sort of April fools joke. Steve Blum( the voice of Tom) encouraged people to let cartoon network know we want Toonami back so go to this link and tell 'em you want it back!

To give feedback go to programing and then Toonami.

Super sad that I missed this last night. Definite thanks for posting about it or I wouldn't have even known it happened! Hopefully we can get Tom back!

It's Tom 3, the best Tom.

They even did a video game review like they used to.(They did Mass Effect 3)

Personally I'm more of a Tom 2 fan, but with the exception of Tom 4 they all had their great points and are worthy of rememberance.

It was officially not an April fools joke. Adult swim's official twitter feed said this. So go on twitter and tell them you want it back.

Or, barring that, ride around and throw your money at Stephen Blum. Having already done this previously, I can report the man is thankful. Confused, but thankful/

Toonami a shit. Anyone who thinks that english dubs of mediocre shows are worth bringing back to television is wearing serious nostalgia goggles.

Welcome back, Ottoman! Since you've been gone for so long, you may have forgotten this little thread: http://loadingreadyrun.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=13361

That's the beauty of opinion. Just because it differs from yours doesn't mean it's wrong.

Thanks; I was hoping all that training would pay off.

I'd make a better, in-step comeback, but unfortunately, I don't remember who you are. Sorry.

Wow, Otto. Looking through your first few posts on these forums, you were so nice! What happened to you? Was high school really that bad? It seems like such a shame. :/

Cartoon Network know, they just don't give a damn, seeing some of their business decisions in the past, I've grown to accept they just don't like money and success so Toonami will never return.

I'd be interesting in seeing the lineup throughout the years. I remember the years when it was that guy who voiced Optimus Prime (I think I liked him as a host better). But that was also when Dragon Ball Everything was all over the place, and I never got into it.

Then again, I unironically watched Inuyasha. I recognize NOW that it's pretty bad, but yeah.
