Looking forward to doing home stuff. #
Bang.
I’d like to invite everyone to post their favorite memories of Toonami in the comments here.
I must say that my favorite memory of Toonami was the fact that it gave me something to look forward to when I got home on days when people gave me crap at school. I have to thank you Toonami, for cheering me up with my favorite programs during the weekdays and helping form more than a few fond memories from my childhood.
Outlaw Star on toonami was the same way i got into anime
Man, the cancellation of Toonami is crap; it just makes me so nostalgic for my childhood, the idea of saying goodbye to it is painful.
Outlaw Star was a definite fave, but also waiting for DBZ to come on and catching snippets of Sailor Moon beforehand. Oh and of course Trigun and such, oooh, good stuff.
oh lol, outlaw star your first anime plus through toonami? what a horrible memory imo.
toonami can go and die for all i care. Less dubbed outlaw star and dragonball is more better programming.
I always remember never having it my house, but my uncle had it at his. I think what happened was that he got Cartoon Network because he had a cable box, and I didn’t. So every time I went over to his house, I watched Speed Racer and Space Ghost. I was 7 at the time.
I guess my favorite memory of toonami was always how i would come home from elementary and do my homework quickly so I could watch Sailor Moon and Dragon Ball z. The fact that Toonami was cancelled makes me feel like I just saw a part of my childhood disappear and it makes me depressed. But oh well I’ll always have those good memories…

I remember when Toonami first aired, I had never seen anime before then and Robotech blew me away. I’ve been an anime fan ever since. It’s hard to believe that it’s gone now, guess its up to the internet to introduce future generations to anime.
I remember when Toonami used to air shows like Ronin Warriors and when it first started out it used to air Thundercats…Toonami gave me a reason to watch Cartoon Network
“Friday night”? You mean “Saturday night”.
However, I’m going to miss it. I’ve uploaded a video in its memory.
I can’t believe it. I watched it since a year after its start, and it gave me a reason to watch TV. A few years back, I’d actually stay up to watch some of it.
RIP Toonami
You left us with some great memories.
i play football, baseball, and track….i guess u cud call me a jock, but i loved dbz, naruto, gundam, trigun and all the other friday and saturday night junk that came on over the years and all my friends frowned upon it…it gave me somethin to watch and i looked forward to it every week but now i dnt have that anymore and it truley saddens me…steve blums voice honestly was the heart of cartoon network for a long time….il shed a tear for tom and toonami, thnks for all the good memories…il miss u
I LOVE Naruto to death…and I grew up watching DragonBallZ,and a lot of other awesome anime shows ever since I was a 7-year old girl.I’ve watched Toonami for 9 YEARS now,and they have the NERVE to get cancelled by a gay channel such as CN that is only on for little kids now?Now I watch Adult Swim,but even that is getting old with all of its re-runs and such.The only option for me since Naruto and Inuyasha and even DragonBallZ is not on anymore is to watch Pokemon on Saturday mornings,but even THAT show is getting run down as well…
If you want a place to rant about this,my YouTube account is Raichurulez.Please drop a line to keep Toonami alive!
If cartoon network *I still refuse to use the new initials* put back toonami I’m sure they would make a killing in ratings. I still remember Tom making speeches about how we shouldn’t be afraid to fail and that we needed to walk our own path. Tom was not only a host but a role model to the cartoon network community. This CN real is garbage, I am disgusted with the people in charge and they should be too.
we need to complain to CN. say: PUT TOONAMI BACK, OR LOSE VIEWERS. YOUR CHOICE. i did. and, just like all of u, i luvd toonami. DBZ was my fave till NARUTO. CN uzd the excuse “parents complained about it being ‘loud for CN viewers.’ meaning violent.” i dont believe that crap. do you? my fave version of tom was 3rd. ANY1 TAKE TOONAMI IN VAIN, YOU CAN GO EAT CRAP IN UR TOILET FOR ALL I CARE. as for its finale, it..i wont say broke my heart..but made a piece of me dissapear. LONG LIVE TOONAMI!!!!
MAN! I CANT BELIEVE Toonami is gone…I grew up watching it. It was the true real reason I watched Cartoon Network. I will miss it…GREATLY…
my favorite was running into my house trying to run down the hill from my mom-maws house cause her power died and it was on everywhere else … but now i can`t believe i did that for cartoon network cause i quit CN
Go to Hell CN!
my memory from toonami is evry thing. i watched it every time it went on. now its been cancelled. CN has been getting really stupid with new shows. G gundam 4ever!!
Like all of you, I miss Toonami too. Toonami inspired my interest in drawing, in comic books and manga, and in foreign music. My favorite memories of the program block were all the phenomenal promos and intros they used to do for their shows. Truly, they were works of art.
R.I.P. Toonami
i remember when they used to show old music videos like the gorillaz, and had amazing shows on i used to love to death. now cartoon network has nothing, and i feel sorry for the kids that dont get to have what we had.
that last line of ‘stay gold, bang’ is actully a reference to the book ‘The Outsiders’
