Toonami died for me when they gave Tom a face.

I loved the original pot belly version, and the second version was pretty cool.

But they gave him a face.

And all those other loser guys.

It killed Toonami for me.

I saw this two days ago, it's sad to see something that was part of your childhood go, but in my mind Toonami ended for me when they pushed it to 1 day a week. Pretty much late 2002-2003 it was over for me.

This is my opinion as well

I have more info I posted on another fourm:

From the floor of Anime Weekend Atlanta, I’m both glad and saddened to be the one breaking the news. Tonight’s Toonami will be the final. Anime will be shuffled off, with Adult Swim still apparently acquiring some, and Action will be a Friday Night/Saturday Morning thing. The Toonami people have been shuffled off to different departments of CN, and Jetstream will air for the forseeable future, but the Toonami we know is gone as of tonight.

Naruto? S&P has 15 more episodes to go over, and there’s no word on another season. No word, also, where it will air after Toonami.

In other CN news, they’re working on a Ben 10 Alien Force live-action movie, could air Powerpuff Girls Z at some point

(Original text after the bump for posterity sake)

Cartoon Network is running late, but…

Powerpuff Girls Z may be coming late this year or early next.

Pretty big announcement about Toonami coming tonight. (One of the heads of AWA mentioned Toonami would air for the last time tonight, but wasn’t clear if he was joking) edit- someone asked, and he reiterated to watch Toonami tonight for an announcement.

Edit- Toonami, as we know it is gone. The team is going to other parts of CN, anime will be mostly handled by AS, and action on Friday nights. Toonami is gone for ratings. Jetstream will be active.

S&P looked at Elfin Lied.. too much.

“No comment” on Naruto Shippunden airing.

Old School AS Friday won’t last long.

Code Geass is not doing well at all. Watch Shin-Chan and reruns of FMA.

FusionFall in January, beta testing now.

Naruto- S&P has 15 more episodes, and “wait and see” on second series. No word on where it goes without Toonami.

CN is airing Gotham Knight and New Frontier, working on a Ben 10 Alien Force live action movie.

A part of my childhood and teen years has been slain. I may had never say Toonami in it's early years, but I was lucky enough to see it during 2002-2005. Toonami has provided many action cartoons and anime fans with such great memories and was bold enough to help bring good anime to the mainstream. Now, it's all gone!

These shows were great during their run on Toonami:

THe above were just a small sample of Toonami's awesomeness!

However, Toonami died around 2004-2005 for me.

Yes Toonami did give some memorable moments. They had a lot of good animes.

Now they need to get AS out of the collective shitter. They pushed Code Geass to the No man's time zone. And only playing utter shit in the time spots. I pretty much stopped caring for CN special blocks once Code Lyoko ended

By special blocks I mean toonami, that old block Maguzi, and DAS

.. In reality, back when I was a sheltered sheltered violence-is-bad kid, I never watched DBZ for the sake of my innocence, as well as many other anime I should've watched. Now I regret it deeply.

But oh my pixie sticks Toonami, wrrrryyy. ;__;

.. You know, Hamtaro did air on Toonami for some time, too...

When this was canceled, I lost hope for Toonami ._.

Oh my god. I completely forgot about that.

But it was fucking awesome. Even if it was way similar to Futurama.

What was that shitty thing that replaced Toonami during the weekdays? Something with an 'M'

It was Maguzi which had Code Lyoko, my personal favorite non anime show ever created.
