You should all watch Toonami.

Don't like it? Turn your TV on and let it sit on Toonami while you do something else. I suggest only watching streams if you have no way to watch Toonami at all. They have very little money guys, and ratings are the only way for them to get more so YOU can get more of what YOU want.

Come on, Toonami Faithful. May 26th, Midnight. Be there.

The Adult Swim Message Boards is one of my most frequent hangouts on the web, I've been closely following the Toonami revival since April 1st :)

Toonami is coming back as the action portion of Adult Swim, for the time being- http://www.adultswim.../shows/toonami/

New shows so far are Deadman Wonderland and Casshern Sins http://www.crunchyro...-toonami-lineup

I didn't have cable TV as a kid, so I didn't watch much Toonami when it would have been relevant to me.
But now that I'm an adult, I own enough anime on DVD to provide me with PLENTY to watch. I also prefer subtitles, so anime airing on TV isn't really my thing.

I'm glad to see anime on TV again. I'd like it to maintain some sort of popularity. But I'm not going to be bothering with new Toonami.

I'm really excited for Toonami's return. When I was a kid I only got to enjoy the Toonami block whenever I went to my cousin's house or my friend's house. I didn't have cable or dish back then and ya know what? I don't have it now but that could change if I can find a good tv provider that won't charge me up the rear. But ah, Toonami. For the past few years I've been watching a bunch of old promos and they all felt so nostalgic even though I can't remember seeing any of them when they were still funky fresh but it was just the style that really draws you in. The music tracks they used were awesome and the video editing was done in such a cool way. You could really tell that the people behind Toonami loved what they were doing. I'm not sure what happened in later years. People started talking about how Naruto was dominating the block and that was pretty much all they showed after a while or something like that. I dunno but I do know I didn't like Tom's last design much at all. It just weirded me out. I wonder what he'll look like in his return.

This might be my favorite promo they made:

TOM's new image is a revamp of TOM 3, the one before the infamous TOM 4. Click the Adult Swim link to see a pic. The Absolution will also look similar to how it did with TOM 3 at the helm.

I feel similarly to Nemoide about watching anime subbed, like when [as] got Kekkaishi I decided to watch it subbed instead because many anime just work better that way, plus you get the full openings, endings, previews.. stuff they can't make time for air on tv in the US of A. But I want to watch the new Toonami, so hopefully I won't be itching to seek what they show elsewhere.

If you absolutely can not watch Toonami because you aren't American or you do not have cable then bookmark this. This person LiveStreamed the April 1st airing and will be streaming Toonami once it starts back up. This guy is EST time so check that here for what time you should tune in.

I'm only suggesting this to internationals and non-cable people.

I've tried to watch Toonami whenever I can, but most weeks I've been unable to due to night-time events, or me just not lasting that late.

I love the new shows though, especially Casshern Sins.
