I don't browse /b/ or /v/. I've been browsing /a/ for years. the only other boards I go to is /fa/ and /an/. this was not meant to be a troll post, so I'm sorry if it came across that way. I just want older anon to explain why I should want Toonami.

I did not find the April Fools Day showing to be very good, but it was also a giant troll, and they showed a bunch of final spoiler episodes, and a Mass Effect 3 rating, so the whole thing was a joke.

what will Tonnami actually be like? more DBZ reruns?

>>63707507
Nobody is telling you to watch Toonami. Watch what you enjoy and shut the hell up.

We enjoyed it because we grew up on it and it had good shows. That's that.

>>63707507

How old are you? Serious question.

Get the fuck out

I turned 13 in March

also I know I don't need to watch anything, but as an active poster of /a/, I do tend to listen if ENOUGH of you say something is good,then I go and see for myself and make my own decision,but I can't do that since Toonami isnt showing right now,

I think people want Toonami back because it was the thing that got a lot of them into anime in the first place.

The sad reality is that if Toonami was brought back, it would probably consist of old reruns everyone here has seen and younger generations wouldn't want to watch anyway (try getting today's 10 year old to watch Gundam Wing).

Now if Toonami was brought back and revamped with more modern shows it may have a chance to appeal to people once more.

>>63707757
This.

>>63707750
Is this what trolling has become? Because that would mean you were 9~10 when Toonami ended, so you would still be aware of what it was, and you'd be all over that shit.

You know what, I'm giving MYSELF a 0/10 for having replied to this thread.

Even for a 13-yo OP is much more mature than 90% of all toonamifags.

>>63707757
>Now if Toonami was brought back and revamped with more modern shows it may have a chance to appeal to people once more.

This.
You're pretty dumb if you think Toonami would survive on reruns alone, it'll die in 1-2 months.
Now that it's part of the AS block, they can now show TV14-MA anime which opens a lot slots for good anime that this new generation can enjoy.

Once a year is good enough.

CN doesn't know how to do anything right anymore. It would instantly become shit the moment it came back.

Half of Toonami's lineup doesn't hold up at all.

When was the last time you watched Gundam Wing? Dreadful.

I want Toonami back so I could leave it on for comfort noise, or something to stare at every so often.

New shows are a must, and I wouldn't mind a girly hour (though not advertised as such) with stuff like Natsume Yuujinchou.

well it's not that I don't know what it is, but, I don't remember it ever being something I enjoyed. I've always remembered watching cartoon network, but I don't remember Toonami that well. I think it might be because they changed their mascot too much

I mean we're days away from this pic related anime coming out, and we're going to see lots of /v/irgins and fake trolls here getting fake mad over a renowned staff using their talents to make a gay anime.

>>63707947
That's so fucking true

Everyone is forgetting how bad Toonami was right before it got cancelled.

>>63707996
It's more asinine to believe it would come back. Toonami doesn't have the competitive edge. Toonami was suppose to live healthfully with DBZ/Naruto but now they lost both.

>>63707947
See, what's wrong with this, is that whoever put it together clearly didn't watch the April Fools Toonami. It had really good shit, and TOM3. It was like watching Toonami BEFORE it went to shit. And considering how it'd more than likely be put on Adult Swim every Saturday night, the picture on the left would be the one more likely to happen.

But yes, this Toonami shit really needs to stop, I want to talk about anime & manga, not a fucking programming block on a channel I don't even get in my country.

>>63708065

The U.S. industry has declined enough funimation, rightstuf, sentai, etc would probably finance it themselves to pump new Toonami full of shows and try to up sales.

The thing is Toonami is a magnet for idiots who don't even know how to discuss something properly nor did they watch a lot of series to have a better taste. Why is it considered crap? Because of most of its series are entry level shit. Sure I wouldn't care if it this was one thread with normal posts and spelling but most you read written by Tooanmifags is::"Goku is uber manly i am going to fire my kamehameha xD" Having more Toonami shit threads here lures those kind of people who know about 4chan because of "funny images and jokes" and they usually ignore global rule about being underage. Do you see /a/ and /jp/ sprouting millions of Tooonami threads? No. Why? Because they think its a silly programming block for children. It's stupid, it's full of entry level shit, it's littered with characters that are just plain HORRIBLE, the fanbase is on par with the twilight and avatar one, atrocious normalfags who watch the stuff only to see which guy will the protagonist that is irrefutably alpha fuck first, extremely undeveloped characters and a utterly ridiculous everyday depiction, actually, 98% of characters rely on grunts because the writer can't write above anything what a caveman with a club lodged up his prehistoric anus could. Also did i mention it's very childish, thus attracting underages and manchildren, mouthbreathers and faggots? It also it attracts ADHD children, which, no matter how much your mother told you to respect the sick, are not wanted on /a/ and should just die off like the waste of resources they are.

Sometimes /a/ is amazing before all the kids come home. I posted something similar and Sunday after Toonami aired and sent a message to CN along the same lines.

Just put new entry-level anime in the block with a couple time slots dedicated to classics/hits and I think it would do well enough.

>>63708203
>Pretty sure most of us saw our first series on TV

Well of course we did, the internet as it is today and fansub groups didn't exist back then. That doesn't mean it's reason enough to bring it back.

>>63708203
CN doesn't like to pay for new rights for shows, they only got like two new anime in about three years.

If it does come back then the only thing that's going to be on is the same shit that's been airing for the past decade.

MOTHERFUCKING SHIT. I WAS JUST MASTURBATING AND EVERYTHING WAS GOING GREAT. I WAS IN MY

ROOM, I HAD MY HEADPHONES ON, I WAS

TOTALLY NAKED SITTING AT MY COMPUTER FAPPING AWAY TO A VIDEO ON REDTUBE. ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE'S THIS REALLY SHARP PAIN IN MY

DICK, LIKE IT JUST GOT STABBED WITH A SEWING NEEDLE. I JERKED MY HAND BACK AND IT BUMPED INTO MY COMPUTER TOWER, WHICH SITS

ON THE DESK. WELL, I HAD MY STICK OF DEODORANT ON TOP OF THE TOWER, AND THAT BITCH FELL OFF AND LANDED DEODORANT-END-DOWN ON

THE HEAD OF MY COCK. HOLY FUCKING SHIT DID THAT HURT, AND ON TOP OF THAT IT HIT SO HARD THAT IT

ACTUALLY FORCED SOME

DEODORANT INTO MY URETHRA. I'VE NEVER HAD ANYTHING BURN SO BAD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. I JUMPED

OUT OF MY FUCKING CHAIR AND STOOD

UP BECAUSE IT HURT SO BAD; THIS CAUSED MY HEADPHONE CABLE TO GET YANKED OUT OF MY

SPEAKERS, WHICH CAUSED "OH YEAH BABY COME

DEEP IN MY TIGHT TEEN ASSHOLE UH UH UH" TO GET BLARED THROUGH MY FUCKING HOUSE AND ALMOST

MAXIMUM VOLUME. NOW MY EYES ARE

WATERING FROM THE PAIN OF THE DEODORANT INSIDE MY COCK BUT I MANAGE TO PUNCH ONE OF MY

SPEAKERS HARD ENOUGH SO THEY TURN OFF.

I LOOKED DOWN AND NOTICED BLOOD DRIPPING OFF OF MY COCK; I GUESS THE LIP OF THE PLASTIC

DEODORANT THING BIT INTO MY FORESKIN

AS IT CONNECTED WITH MY COCK. THE BLOOD WAS DRIPPING DOWN MY LEG.

THIS ALL HAPPENED IN THE SPACE OF MAYBE 6 SECONDS. IT MAY SEEM BAD BUT IT GETS WORSE. JUST

AS I'M STANDING THERE TRYING TO

FIGURE OUT WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED, MY BEDROOM DOOR FUCKING OPENS. MY DAD WAS STANDING

THERE WITH MY ACCEPTANCE LETTER TO

JOHNS HOPKINS. I FROZE AND HE STARED AT ME, NAKED WITH MY BLOODY ERECTION FOR MAYBE 15

SECONDS BEFORE HE NOTICED MY COMPUTER

MONITOR AND THE BRUTAL ANAL SEX SCENE GOING ON FULL-SCREEN. HE IMMEDIATELY CLOSED THE

DOOR AND LEFT WITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING.

Midnight-2 am Subs of Oreimo, Arakawa, Sora no Woto and a simulcast/same week air of Accel World, Hyouka, Sankarea, Medaka Box, or Eureka Seven .

Subs are being a bit hopeful but having them late night and more popular accessible ones could wean people into them. Madoka as one of the last dub shows of the night would be another nice lead in but that's Aniplex to deal with.

Inuyasha would belong on the left side with the default lineup.

Oreimo did do reasonably well enough to be possible.

>>63708487
Be easier to get the rights to air them, also it's a special request channel of some other crap like that no one actually has.

OP here, it looks like not all of /a/ likes Toonami like I thought. On April Fool's Day, Toonami permanetly ALL over page 1, and a bunch of Toonami threads getting hundreds of replies,so I thought you guys must really love it

But from this thread, only a few of you seem to really want it

Pic related, a show that could make Toonami succeed!

Hundreds of negative replies, you forgot.

>>63707298
>I'm 13 and I don't even remember Toonami being on
What an awful, transparent attempt at making the people who disagree with your Toonami spamming appear to be underage. Go back and bother /v/, maybe they'll care.

>>63708536
>But from this thread, only a few of you seem to really want it
It's because shitposters from /v/ and /co/ flooded the board, and they keep coming back to talk about Toonami. Toonami needs to become an auto ban word or something, this shit is getting really fucking ridiculous.

>>63708532

Subs on Cartoon Network are one hundred percent unlikely. You can get subs via on demand from other companies, but no one is going to do that on basic cable. Maybe TCM, but they'd still air dubs if they could.

>>63708532
>Oreimo did do reasonably well enough to be possible.

yeah right, a show about incest on cartoon network.
that will go over well.

>>63708558

No, actually it was a bunch of neckbeards saying they were crying IRL,. and it was so beautiful, and some of them commited sudoku so they could live the moment forever

but me, I didn't like it, and well DBZ is okay obviously,but Gundam Wing was shit lol

>>63708536

The "/a pissing themselves over Toonami" was simply a reaction to the unexpected revelation that somebody else in the world was actually giving a shit about anime for more than a second.

>>63708532
But it's not a special request channel.

>>63708536
>OP here, it looks like not all of /a/ likes Toonami like I thought. On April Fool's Day, Toonami permanetly ALL over page 1, and a bunch of Toonami threads getting hundreds of replies,so I thought you guys must really love it

Oh we liked it for that 1 day. Just that it brought a bunch of faggots like you along with it that only want to create a bebop thread with the same heading "remember when the 6 anime programs I watched on a block were the pinnacle of japanimation?"

It's funny none of those faggots talk about Legend of the Galatic heroes if the want their "manime" but they never heard of it cause it wasn't on fucking TV.

>>63708621
Well, it's not if you have verizon fios.

>>63708618

That wasn't even /a/, those were people from /v/ or casuals that don't frequent /a/.

Toonami is as irrelevant to us as buying dubbed DVDs.

>>63708615
>yeah right, a show about incest on cartoon network.
that will go over well.

The common occuring theme is "misinterpreted incest" but yeah I'd agree that is just retarded to think it was TV appropriate at all.

>>63708649

It's not an on-demand channel in any regard, it has a line-up and it plays programming beyond your control.

>>63708615

AS consists of nothing but middle aged men acting like idiots and black guys yelling the word 'Cheese' over and over right now.

Your average person isn't even going to pick up on the incest themes, yes they are that stupid before you say anything.

I want Toonami back because it could possibly increase Western exposure to anime, and thus help out the market.

This could still happen if AS would just start putting on more and better anime, but all they play is stoner shit anyway.

I don't know what it was but the other day I turned on AS and there was a show on that was still images. Just still images with a voiceover. That's fucking sad.

And yeah I don't want them to play the same stuff. I don't mind if they use the old CG because that's pretty nostalgic and I love TOM, but I think most of us that are defending it would want them to play new shows.

>>63708707
I thought he meant a channel you have to pay for to get it.

>>63708737

>I want Toonami back because it could possibly increase Western exposure to anime, and thus help out the market.

You mean back to a daily weekday afternoon slot, right? If this only remains a Saturday night affair, nothing changes aside from some programming choices. Adult Swim doesn't have the ability to force CN to have an anime block at 4-6PM. And if they do, that's a ton of power.

>>63708773

Depends on your service. It's included in some upper packages on U-Verse and Comcast, but so is the NFL Network, and that's way more vital than the FUNi channel.

>>63708737
The only way for an anime to have an effect over the industry is to have Big 3 levels of popularity. Fuck, not even FMA that was a fucking huge hit didn't awarded that much cash to the japanese dudes.

>>63708773

This

It isn't in your standard programming package, you have to request it specifically or have one of a very few providers that provide it.

>>63708840
I think he meant the western anime industry, you know, the one that /a/ doesn't give a shit about.

>>63708737
Tell your fucking companies to rise the price by 500% and maybe you'll have some impact on the industry.

>>63708940
>western anime
Nigga what/

So who else is sick of the newfag agenda lately? I don't know where the fuck they came up with this but they've been spamming /a/ with newfag shit and spamming /jp/ redirects at anyone who calls them out on their garbage.

This board needs to be nuked by a mod for like, a week straight. However much it takes to make things cool off a bit around here.

>>63708943
Most of that money will go to the publishing/dubbing companies though.
Everything is better off through imports, both official and non official.

The folks wanting Toonami back want it back with all the shows it used to air, so they pretty much want the same thing Adult Swim's been doing with airing Bebop and GitS nonstop over and over again for years that people complain about. Even if it came back with new shows, it'd all be stuff we'd already seen years ago.

We love Toonami because it was something great from our childhood that's no longer around, and it was great because we watched it when we first started into anime, and the other night was great because it reminded us of that great time from our childhood, but if it came back, the nostalgia would quickly wear off and, to us, it would just be a localized anime block. If the 10-15 year olds want it back, let them have it, because they're who the block was intended for when it ran, but the 10-15 year olds of a decade ago are now the ones watching Adult Swim at 2am, so that's when they aired the reboot, so no current 10-15s saw it.

Should [AS] increase how much anime they air back to the levels they did in the early-to-mid 00s? Maybe, it served as a transition for a lot of kids-turned-teenagers who grew up on Toonami from being Toonami fans to actually being anime fans and moving on to downloading fansubs, but teenagers are also obnoxious. Should CN start up a new, non-Toonami action cartoons block during the day that serves the same purpose Toonami once did? Aw hell yea. But the only purpose to bringing back Toonami would be for the adults who grew up on it to nostalgia over, which could only be maintained for a few weeks at most before, at best, dissolving that nostalgia, or at worst, leading everyone to hate the wonderful thing they used to love.

>>63708963
Funimation/ADV/Sentaifilworks are western anime industry according to everyone.

>>63709024
That's why I said maybe, with higher price there would be also higher money going to the original makers but it still wouldn't be nearly enough to make them even think about the west as a potential market.

>Airing subtitled episodes on late night
NO!
HOW STUPID AND DESPERATE ARE YOU?
It just won't won't happen and it never will.
No one is going to fucking read.

The idea of toonami was to bring anime into the mix of cartoons. It also set a bar for the quality of western cartoons they would play (ie Thunder cats, and Samurai Jack).
They are in need of quality cartoon programming. They are really suffering now that they have reality shows and have to play old school stuff on Fridays. I like seeing Dexter's Lab, Cow and Chicken, etc., but they need some new stuff.
If they revamped toonami with new shows, they could garner the attention of children while increasing the quality of their programming.
This would also get the kids away from naruto and bleach. Give them some good stuff.

The thing is. The concept of Nostalgia is one of the biggest driving forces for Toonami. THAT'S why it was airred replacing Adult Swim.
That's why, if it does return, it'll most likely replace Adult Swim's saturday night block.
Even if you're actually a 13 year old kid and not a horrible troll, it doesn't matter because it wouldn't be marketed towards you anyway.
