+Yung Waves Why do people need to make themselves unhappy by never allowing themselves to be in that impossible, perfect crystallized version of the past they create? Toonami is here _now_. I know it's hard, believe me, but try to enjoy what this is, _while it's happening_. When we only allow things to be good as memories we cheat ourselves of the experience of the present. You're only alive in this moment, everything else is a ghost of things that happened. If Toonami seems bad right now it's possible you might not like the current lineup. That's okay though, it'll change. It's always changing. And we're bound to get Attack on Titan season 2 eventually. But I mean, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Hunter x Hunter (when it's good), Gundam and One Piece (one of my favorite shows ever) absolutely make the block worth watching even if the other shows just round out the experience (for me). Not to mention all the stuff in-between. Game reviews and inspirational speeches from Tom, music videos every now and again and sometimes even animated pilots/shorts apparently, just to mix it up. And that's not even talking about new Samurai Jack... Fuck dude, I even get it. I'm 25 now, I'm disabled and unemployed, I live with my parents and I'm not going to school. I dunno what the fuck to do with my life. But why the hell would I make it worse by making myself sadder when I could just as easily try to enjoy the things happening around me? Today's cartoons are good, the music is good, hell, I don't watch too many movies but from what I've seen they're pretty damn good too. At least that's something to appreciate (besides my friends and family and obvious stuff).

I remember when Toonami came back on April 1st. I was planning on sleeping through the night, as Adult Swim's anime block just didn't really warrant staying awake at the time, but as I was sleeping TOM started speaking and woke up immediately. It took a good few seconds to collect myself, but once I realized that Toonami was back I lost my shit just like everyone else. It was a too good to be true kinda moment, and something I'll never forget.

I too was there that day. My buddy PMed me on steam and told me about it, since we were hardcore into toonami back when we were younger, and I just about lost my shit when I saw TOM 2 once again hosting toonami. There was something magical about seeing one of my favorite TV blocks back again, even if it was just for one night. Hell, all the shows they showed that night I had probably seen before, but I still stayed up just to rewatch them because at one time I too was once and once again that night, a toonami faithful.

HOLY SHIT, ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!! After I picked up my jaw, I was like a kid on a sugar high for the next three hours, reminiscing, texting my friends, hitting people up on Facebook, jumping on the Adult Swim forum, doing flips on my bed at 26 years old, lol. I felt like a teen all over again, and I ended up staying up all night afterward having one long nerdgasm.

I’m with ya in this too. Like so many people who were expecting just another Adult Swim run that night, I was at a total loss form words when I saw that they were airing Gundam Wing and Outlaw Star again. Right after I saw what was happening, I immediately started contacting some of my friends to turn on their TVs fast. Like everyone else who grew up watching Toonami as kids, we were practically drowning with pure joy, especially with the possibility at that time that it had the potential to come back. And it certainly did. If there’s a moment life that I would define as an experience as having a wish come true, Toonami coming back on the air was without a shadow of a doubt, a definitive example of that sort of feeling. That’s a moment in my life I will never forget.

God damn! I can't believe that, this coming March, Toonami will be 20 years old. I am eternally grateful to have been part of its 11 years on the air and its revival years later. Without it, growing up, I wouldn't know about shows like Dragonball Z, Gundam Wing, Big O, and Tenchi Muyo. 20 years later, the newly revived Toonami introduced me to Kill La Kill, Gurren Lagann, and One Punch Man. My only complaint is that it should have the entire Saturday to itself. No Family Guy, no King of the Hill, none of that. Just new anime shows and classics that have graced the show's run to a new generation of fans. Thank you, TOM (Steve Blum), the people behind Toonami, and to our kaptain who guides us through the history of pop culture.

Yeah, he touched on this in his Adult Swim video. I remember being in elementary growing up watching DBZ, Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Inuyasha, etc., even ones like Fooly Cooly and The Big O, which kick started my interest till this day in loving anime/manga. It's a huge point he makes about it not being a genre, but rather a medium. My father for instance grew up watching Flintstones, Jetsons, Scooby-Doo, and Looney Tunes, which is why he still regards most animation (without watching it of course) as being kid-focused. Besides all the animated shows I watch (both anime and American cartoons) that deviate from that, I just watched 'Your Name' a few hours ago, and my God what an amazing movie.

“The goal was to speak to kids directly not to look down on them” -I’m glad that I grew up on toonami, rather than other networks treating anime shows like a stupid kid would watch, it had more of a serious tone and makes you hype up as a kid.

Excellent.

Growing up outside of the US, and with no cable or satellite TV, i had no idea what Toonami was before 2012. However, the genuine glee i saw from people online when it returned made me realize it was something special to the people who knew it. Somehow, i doubt people will be quite as enthusiastically nostalgic about, say, crunchyroll in 10 years.

As if my profile picture wasn't enough indication, I fucking loved toonami growing up and it will always hold a special place in my heart. Tom was such a great character and the airtime was thoughtfully produced every step of the way. Thank you for this brief trip back in time.

“The feeling that someone was introducing you to something they had a great deal of passion for” - this is why as a kid I was so excited to watch Naruto air for the first time. then every Saturday night felt like I hanging out with TOM watching all those great shows

Toonami and Adult Swim in general will forever be the greatest television blocks of all time

teared up a bit tbh

I was 12 when Toonami launched in 1997. The combination of awesome anime shows that kept being updated, excellent hosts like Steve Blum and Peter Cullen, and outstandingly memorable bumpers and music made Toonami a rare cultural phenomenon that helped make anime as popular as it is in the US today. It very much felt like a secret club made by anime fans for anime fans. When "Tom" said farewell, everyone knew it was Steve Blum saying it through Tom.

Toonami introduced me to Eureka Seven, a series that has crystallized into one of the most emotionally resonant pieces of art I have ever consumed, and for that, I will be eternally grateful that Toonami ever existed in the first place.

Damn the nostalgia is real. Can't wait for that Fooly Cooly season 2 and 3 to begin to air.

If Toonam returned to Latin America, I would cry like a baby of joy.

Straight on the nail with the "*Anime is not a genre*", as the demographic for different shows are extremely variable. Myself, outside of a few select titles such as Ghost in the Shell (1995), the Ghibli movies, Neon Genesis Evangelion (95-96), Mobile Suit Gundam Zeta and Ninja Scroll, there's very little for me to enjoy outside in Anime.

They NEED!!! to bring back Toonami in the UK (here it was a channel)

Aye, Toonami just upped and vanished. Replaced by Cartoon Network Too, a collaboration of some sort. The only anime it aired was Pokemon, from what I can remember. That vanished too, after some time. No idea what took its place.

Welp, another great video Kapt. See ya in a month!

I came here as soon as I could, amazing work as always!!!!!

Great job, man!! I've been a Toonami fanbo-uh, Faithful for so many years now; like many others, I ran home to watch this every day. When this ended the first time, I cried. I approve this video.

I was just marathoning toonami bumpers last week

does anyone remember that one night they played daft punk and gorillaz music videos! that was the SHIT! that night I stayed up to watch that and I recorded it on a VHS tape.... I STILL HAVE THAT TAPE!

I did the same! Toonami Midnight Run: Special Edition. And that's actually what got me into Daft Punk and the Gorillaz. I call all my friends who got into DP with Random Access Memories posers. They don't know nuthin' bout that Digital Love.

I just found an amazing channel. Your reviews are phenomenal!!

You did good by this bro, well put together and straight to the point for the retro watchers like myself.

This is good shit, keep it up.

This is basically editing porn

The production and animation on this video is INSANELY GOOD!!! Waiting so long for a KaptainKristian video is honestly, worth the wait.

All your vids hit me right in the nostalgia feels

I really wanted to watch The Room though.

#ToonamiFaithful

Awesome video. Love your aesthethic and way of narrating. You are one of the best content creators on youtube for sure.

yeah this video brought back so many feels i can't explain thanks for making it

Gat damn i feel sad but also happy

I hope one day you will talk about The Sandman comics, from Neil Gayman.

I knew that I will be treated to a masterfully structured and edited visual essay whenever I click your videos. Keep the Videos Coming Please!!!

your style, from speech to video editing to music selection, is amazing, sub.

Sorry, but Pokemon kicked off the anime explosion in the West. Anime on Toonami started with picking up reruns of syndicated shows (Robotech, Sailor Moon, and Dragon Ball Z). Remember, Moltar asking if Toonami was a failed experiment? Pokemon and Digimon's success on other channels lead to Toonami's willingness to give "Gundam Wing" and "Tenchi Muyo" a shot.

Theonetruewonderfly Not really. Anime was starting to get recognized by the western audience as far as Akira and the anime craze specifically didn't start till the early 2000s, which is when DBZ was at its most popular in NA and the Pokemon anime declined massively in popularity.

Found this through a post on Kotaku. Dude,I'm also so moved I straight up subscribed. This shit was BEAUTIFUL!!!! I fucking teared up seeing Toonami's final broadcast (like I do every time. I actually can't listen to that Tycho album because of that). But man!!!! I don't have cable anymore but I'm still happy it's on again. I remember everything from Month Of Miyazaki (which I'm still holding out they do again someday) and New Years Eve's Eve to the Friday Night movies they did. Also the speeches TOM did which still continue to this day. I'm beyond words at how glad I am to have found this. Thank you dude. If there were ever anyone who's a Toonami Faithful, you'd probably be it. Thank you

Your videos are incredible and so inspiring. Well done, sir!
