The Outhouse - The Greatest Comic Book Forum

The possible revivial of Toonami continues with Adult Swim addressing the issue on their Sunday block.

Continuing from their Twitter response a few days ago, Adult Swim reaffirmed their quote, via broadcast during their Sunday block tonight. Besides the response, they also showed some replies to their earlier tweet of the possibility of bringing the Toonami block back, and how well it trended on Twitter itself.

Additionally, though unconfirmed fully, it's been rumored if Toonami does return, it will reair during Saturday night and will start again April 21st. However, I repeat again this should only looked on as a rumor until fully confirmed. As the voice of Tom the robot, Steve Blum put it best:

Patience, my friends. I have no info for you, but these things take time. Keep the faith. I will too.

This reporter will continue to update this story as it continues to develop.

No such thing as good anime. That said Toonami would be awesome if they just ran old JLA/JLU, Batman, Thundercats, Silver Hawks, etc

Toonami debuted in the late 90s... Didn't Cowboy Bebop show up just a couple years on Adult Swim around '01?

Damn someone let titan out of his cell again. He and hawk keep getting out. We need to pay for better security around here.

I am a Gundam fan and I still say Adult Swim was better. Not that Toonami didn't have some good shows, but AS was better.

For me personally Cowboy Bebop and Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood are the best animes I've ever seen. And Cowboy bebop has a very healthy lead over FMA.

That's Adult Swin before it degenerated into just airing Bleach and endless rearing of Cowboy Beebob,Big-O, FLCL and crappy shows for sociopaths and stoners?
