I'm excited that Toonami's back, and, while I am dissapointed with the choices of Deadman Wonderland and Casshern Sins, I'll still tune in on it's debut night and record it for the rest. The higher-ups at [adultswim] (or at least one of them, judging by his Twitter posts) have made it clear that they want to get better titles on but just lack the money as of now. Personally, I'd love to see Gundam (SEED or 00 would be best for the block, but I'd also love to see the original, Zeta, and 08th MS Team), Rurouni Kenshin (I've never seen the anime, but I'm reading the manga), and Tiger & Bunny (I've never seen it, but the premise sounds genius and a lot of people think it would work).

Tiger & Bunny is one of the few anime I've seen in its entirety, and I actually plan on watching it again because of how much I enjoyed it. I can't recommend it highly enough to fellow anime fans, though a lot of people turn it down either because the superheroes wear corporate logos on their suits, or the art style looks "too Western" for them. They don't know what they're missing out on; this show has it all: memorable characters, comedy, drama, action, and suspense. I actually cried a couple of times while watching it. My only complaint is the ending, which was left open for a sequel. Irritatingly the creators decided to wrap it up with two separate movies instead of a 2nd season like everyone would have liked.

TL;DR - Tiger & Bunny rules, haters are missing out, and I'd love to see it on Toonami.

PS - Oh and two other anime I'd love to see on Toonami are Steins;Gate and Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt. They're my other favorite anime besides T&B.

10:30pm EST 7.5 PST - One Piece
11:00pm EST 8 PST- Hunter x Hunter 2011
11:30am EST 8.5 PST- Soul Eater
12:00am EST 9 PST- Full Metal Alchemist and when it finishes it's run FMA: Brotherhood in the same timeslot
12:30am EST 9.5 PST- Fate/Stay Night and when it finishes it's run Fate/Zero in the same timeslot
1:00am EST 10 PST- Darker Than Black
1:30am EST 10.5 PST- Guilty Crown
2:00am EST 11 PST- Tiger and Bunny

I remeber years ago they showed stuff on Toonami like Teen Titans, X-Men Evolution, The Batman and the one show I always tuned into was Justice League Unlimited. Will they bring Toonami back in the UK as well?

I used to watch Zoids every morning while eating breakfast before school. I thought it was pretty awesome. Watching it again would give me nostalgia. If they don't put it on Toonami, they should at least put it on Hulu or something.

I used to be obsessed with Rurouni Kenshin. That and Inuyasha were my primary special interests between the ages of 12 and 14. I would be really happy to see Kenshin back on Toonami again. Though it would have to be the Media Blasters dub; the Sony dub that they put on Hulu drives me crazy because of the changed/mispronounced names. It would also be nice to see Inuyasha again - if they aired that and RK back-to-back, I would be in heaven.

Sadly they've expressed interest in bringing back Inyuyasha and the Final Act series as well...

Yeah, the weird dub changed Yahiko's name to Yoshi. It also changed Kaoru's name to Kaori, and pronounced Kenshin's name without the n. I didn't watch it long enough to see what they did to the other characters' names. I miss the original RK dub too.

I think thats the Singapore dub I could be wrong but thats what Ive heard. Anyways I started watching RK I think when I was around 10 and got hooked and watched it till the end of its run(against shishou) (I wasnt aware of the Japanese Dubs of it on Youtube till about 2 years later). You?

Pretty much the same story with me. Saw it for the first time when Kenshin fought Jin'e, and I was fascinated by it so I decided to keep watching it. Before I knew it, I was obsessed. I never missed an episode.

I watched Rurouni Kenshin when I was 11, though my first exposure to anime was Pokemon when I was 8.

Naruto was one of my major special interests between the ages of 14 and 16. Might Guy and Rock Lee were my favorite characters.
