I just got word that Toonami just got canned. Which is a shame even though the program turned into a shell of its former self later on down the road. Toonami got me into anime which is weird to think about. Without Toonami I wouldn't have found out about the Gundam series or Cowboy Bebop. I remember just recording every weeks show on a VHS tape back in 1998. Then watching it over and over. It was something new for its time. I'll put it in a terms for the new generations will understand. It was basically the Adult Swim of anime. It brought to light many things. Even though the series of anime shows were edited to hell it was still fun to watch. I have a lot of good memories with it. So it's sad to see it go. You will be missed Toonami! 1997-2008 R.I.P.

The begining...

The goodbye...

From,

Cameron

I stated to watch Toonami in September 99, when I came to the U.S. That were I saw the finally for DBZ . I stopped watching it after all the freaking recaps, but it was fun when watching it. My favorite character was the first, the beer belly was just to rich . RIP

Anything that introduces anyone to Cowboy Bebop will be missed by me.

I've never heard of Toonami (maybe because I'm Canadian?) but dammit, why must a source of anime die?!

We never had Toonami. Nor will we ever have it. I'm thankful for the British Cartoon Network our cable tunes. But, I do have a large number of German kid programs, which ran (and still do) animes all the time. So there. Ha! Ich will a lifetime of animes haben!
