Toonami

Does anyone here watch Toonami? It comes on Saturdays at 11:30 PM on Adult Swim. So if you're reading this right now on Saturday, you can still watch Toonami tonight, as it starts in a few minutes with DragonBall Z Kai.

I have great memories of the old Toonami, airing in the afternoons. Something about cool introductions before cartoons by a robot, music videos with anime shows, and good anime is just really fun. My favorite show on the new Toonami is DBZ Kai, but you probably figured that by my name.

Hey Tooonami Tom, my brother is the DBZ fan and glad to see to see it swept under the rug with the new film Battle of The Gods.

I do like the characterization given to Vegeta. He goes form reluctantly folding under Frieza planning to overthrow him and take over Frieza's amassed empire not caring if Earth lives or dies then eventually he becomes Earth's top protector.

I do not know where the rights lie but this would be the prefect place for the new season of Digimon featuring the original team.

I mainly watched Justice League on the Saturday night run. Loved that show. Wish Aquaman would have been in place of Hawkgirl and more Bat Rogues but wonderfully written for all ages and fond memories of it.

I used to watch Toonami when they were airing YuYu Hakusho back in 2003. I loved that show.

Hi, it is good to hear from you.

Yeah, Vegeta went through an evolution in personality over the course of the series. I like that a lot of characters in DragonBall and DragonBall Z start out as rivals or villains, and then they become friends with Goku and the other Z Fighters.

Justice League would be great for the new Toonami, but I think I read that DC Comics doesn't really want to "play ball" with Toonami. However, that might not be true, as Beware The Batman was on there, before it was written off the network.

Digimon is a great show that I watch too, but I don't think it would be considered a good fit for Adult Swim.

Yes, One Piece is on Toonami. I think that most of Toonami's most popular shows are licensed by Funimation and Viz.

It was pretty great back in 2000-2004 (I think)
Yu Yu Hakusho was my favorite show of the bunch. But they were all pretty great. I don't see it anymore because I have no cable in my dorms.
