Toonami - 08th MS Team Long Promo (1080p HD)

[GreatAetheeeer]

The promo is fairly long, as you've noted in the video title. 08th MS Team, by really any standard, is quite short at only eleven episodes. I made a joke, albeit a mediocre one as I often do, playing on the fact that it is a "long" promo for a "short" series. That clear things up?

[SlimD716V2]

@GreatAetheeeer Yeah I gotcha. I figured that's what you meant.

[cydzview]

"Do you really believe you can still fire at the enemy?"

A fucking legendary line. 

[gflux11]

Back when tv was good (sigh) they should of just given Toonami its own channel

[captainpike332]

COMMANDER!!!!!



[captainpike332]

Zeke against Feddie.... Those words in Peter Cullen's voice...absolutely chilling!

[demoAnimation]

My Favorite Gundam series~

[Ztr9]

god damn. 3rd grade. everyday after school. I miss Toonami.

[Feralgator]

I wish it was up next : /

[TeeKup]

Hearing Peter Cullen say "Gundam" sends chills down my spine. He says it perfectly.

[ilvpowerrangers]

I miss this day's. But I'm going to be getting the DVD's soon. 

[joshua77771000]

ho yes .

[GreatAetheeeer]

this promo is almost as long as the series

[SlimD716V2]

@GreatAetheeeer Lol what?

[gundam12p]

OMG THIS IS THE SADDEST GUNDAM STORY YOU WILL EVER SEE

[rockfever723]

@gundam12p

You obviously haven't seen 0080

[UchihaGamer111]

@rockfever723 Is that war in the pocket?

[xxANBUxx]

@UchihaGamer111 Yeah it is.

[DanMarSal]

@UchihaGamer111 no, This is so much better than War in the Pocket, even War in the Pocket has a message.

[DanMarSal]

@gundam12p but one of the best Gundams out there

[ArkRowland]

8th MS Team is the best series. Really took you away from all that "ultra powerful super gundam with acrobatic abilities of a Korean Gymnast" crap.The series was made me believe that the mobile suits could be a reality.

[GPowtlaw2]

definitely my favorite Gundam series of all time gotta love it

[nuker60]

One of my favorite Gundam shows set in the Universal Century. I remember this came out during the time when Gundam really made a splash in the states-brief as it was.

[cobeoe]

g1 optimus prime is narrating the commercial

[hokage51]

man for a second there I actually thought it was going to start and realized it was just a promo.... sucks that toonami is no more. Hopefully it'll come back with neotoonami...

[CJW249]

Wow sir amazing quality.

[SquirtleScott92]

RIP Norris Packard.

[LifesVideos]

BRING TOONAMI BACK!!!!!!

[RACKEMDADDY]

YOUR NO BETTER THAN THEY ARE

[bluesirrus]

i have all the toonami shows on dvd except for sailor moon (bleah) and dbz watching them is not the same without the promos and seeing tom

[MInuhanyouM]

@bluesirrus BLEAH!? who the fuck hates sailor moon?? i admit the dub and censorship was atrocious, but the series itself in japanese was awesome

[cody6890]

Which Gundam series was the one where it was like a "World Cup" for Gundams where each country entered their own specific one. Like America's was a boxer, french one had roses or something, etc..?

[MInuhanyouM]

@cody6890 G gundam!!!

[DandySlayer13]

@cody6890 G Gundam

[KingZode]

im not gunna lie the last time toonami aired i cried a little.

[LITESKINDOMINIC]

0:43 i remember it like yesterday!

[GodPlageon]

Best Gundam series.

[Diabeticfury]

the man said it's coming on next. He was wrong nothing came on after. WHY GOD!!!!!!!

[Reach008]

[GraandMasterWalrusz]

0:26 "RUN FOREST" lol

0:44 Now thats intense

0:57 WTF!!!

[JeffreyRWu]

optiums prime's voice!

[MarsGundam]

@JeffreyRWu Who else to introduce another series of robots that kick ass.

[darexinfinity]

I would definitely watch this whole series if it was in 1080p.

[APittsburghOriginal]

great show

[Gruntfan21]

Mom: Its late at night go to bed

Me: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo

Now im 20 and finally watched the show on Youtube... worth every year I missed it

[MrEniwetok]

Spacenoids against Earthdwellors...

Zeek against Feddy...

[Xelpherpolis]

Hands down my favorite Gundam series of all =)

[Gruntfan21]

COMMANDER!!!!

[coolbrandon92]

Narrator the voice of optimus prime? and i miss these old toonami commercials.

[CommanderThunderush]

@coolbrandon92 I flat out miss Toonami, but I can't complain. It's more effective to try and bring it back, but all these 12-year old dopes on YouTube make it impossible to be taken seriously.

[coolbrandon92]

@CommanderThunderush Yeah i know what you mean. Cartoons aren't what they used to be. Kids are getting dumber and dumber.

[coolbrandon92]

@CommanderThunderush Yeah i know what you mean. Kids these days are getting dumber and dumber. That's why cartoons aren't the way they used to be.

[CommanderThunderush]

@coolbrandon92 Society's treating people like sheep and robots. It's also largely to blame from so many people overruning the world. The only way it will change is if we had something major impact their lives. I'll be doing my best to campaign for the return of Toonami, praying we get back normal someday. Smart people will have a comeback, even if I have to take drastic measures- within reason.

[coolbrandon92]

@CommanderThunderush haha yeah. well good luck. and i hear something about "neo toonami". idk if it's a hoax or if it's actually going to happen. but i'm just hoping it will show all the good old animes. hopefully in HD quallity. My life would forever be happy if that really happen.

[CommanderThunderush]

@coolbrandon92 I've got a one-man project of my own to raise awarness for Toonami. Give me some time and I'll do the old CN justice. I've got a great feeling about this.

[coolbrandon92]

@CommanderThunderush looking forward to it.

[YamashitaTsubasa]

DAT QUALITY

[ColorWeed]

Dude you brought back so many memories ty

[saltythebear]

Peter Cullen: Best Narrator Ever

[admiraltolokus]

Still sends shivers down my spine watching the old Toonami commercials, rest in peace Toonami, those of us who were with you from the beginning miss you dearly when presented with shit on Cartoon Network these days.

[8ceWonder]

that is if my memory serves me well...

[8ceWonder]

the end of this anime from what I remember was sad and fucked up lol

[SageofTalos]

@8ceWonder, not really. If you watch it for the first time not knowing the plot, it can be kinda a nail-biter. 

[317fighter]

I'm inthe middle of streaming the origenal Mobile Suit Gundam... but that may have to be put on hold for this!

[oncesanora]

Who is the narrator for these ads!?

[SlimD716V2]

@oncesanora Peter Cullen. The voice of the great Optimus Prime. They couldn't have picked anyone better for the job.

[oncesanora]

@SlimD716V2

Amazingly fast reply!  You're my hero!

[SlimD716V2]

@oncesanora :D

[ygogxduelist]

@SlimD716V2 no wonder i keep imagining optimus prime talking LOL

[spooksmagee]

Still my favorite Gundam series after all these years.

[Temptation777]

@spooksmagee Same here!

[JackDaScarecrow]

ZEKE ZEON!!!!!!!!

[Anihilist]

name of the song?

[SlimD716V2]

@Anihilist "8thTeam60"

[mec567]

You know when Toonami did a seriously well done promo for something, it was worth staying up.

Damn was I ever right.

[DangerousD6969]

this and Outlaw Star was the best back to back line up Midnight Run ever had, god I miss these days

[heyeveryoneimcool]

"Zeke against Feddie..."

[Rblancob88]

man i miss the old Toonami

[TheBron631]

toonamie saved my childhood

[AmericanPride42]

I get a chill up my spine every time I hear Peter Cullen's voice. I can't help it!!!

[aesniper]

The battle scenes were legendary

[ZeroFayt]

This was my favorite gundam series that ran on Toonami.

[Chaos2ThaWorld1]

i luv gundams and i luv all the gundam shows

[Chaos2ThaWorld1]

i luv gundams

[Astartes40000]

I miss this show, and I miss toonami

seriously cartoon network, what the hell happened??

[Haseo234]

Optimus Prime...narrating Gundam?! Impossible haha jk jk

[howlbigbadwolf]

HUmm humm humm Kids today have no F*cking Idea what they Missed!

[DangerousD6969]

@howlbigbadwolf

agreed, look at the crap on CN right now

[geeknproud2110]

Easily one of the best Gundam series ever.

[guitargodthor]

i miss multar!!

[PattyJimmy]

omg.. Peter Cullen!! 

[ZECTCustomUnit]

@PattyJimmy

I loved how he promoted all Gundams. LMAO

Imagine if he did stuff for X, Turn A, 00, etc.

[Farvan893]

@ZECTCustomUnit imagine if he did Full Metal Panic or Votoms (sad theres no English Dub though)

[keithsimonh]

Holy crap, I just realized this is a giant robot version of Romeo and Juliet... oh japan, how I love thee, let me count thy ways.

[backspaceDUBSTEP]

I fucking miss the days of Toonami after a long day of 4th grade lol. This needs to be brought back on Cartoon Network and with out a doubt ill still watch it.

[ChaosForYourWorld]

RIP Tom

[VonBrunswick]

omg i miss toonami so badly

[ZSwierczynski]

Mobile Suits. WHEN ARE YOU REAL?!

[trdimasi]

@ZSwierczynski They are real. Japans just hiding them from us in order to wait when those posers from code geass appear and they gundams wreck them.

[cloudorauron]

@trdimasi bee bee bee bee

ITS

A

GUNDAAAAM!

[caelverchiel]

@cloudorauron come get me....YOU MONSTER!!!

[DantesLink]

MY GOD, SO MANY MEMORIES. Remastering it only made it even better!!!!!!

[myfriendsrule1]

If u want to watch Gundam 8th ms team free without downloading it go to Krumby.com and its english dub

[kennysorel]

Thanks for the promo Optimus Prime :)

[Deathknight400]

I am slightly amused on how it is advertised that those two are the only hope for peace in the Universal Century when true fans know about 0083, Zeta, and up. This is a side story people, a really good side story but a side story none the less.

[MInuhanyouM]

@Deathknight400 its just to make a dramatic summary, i don't think they were intending it to be technically correct

[Deathknight400]

@MInuhanyouM I know, it just kind of amused me. 

[DemonSamaJr]

Sucks man. If only my little brother could have lived in the 90's with me haha. He can only see videos on YouTube of how it used to be. But he vaguely remembers Yu Yu Hakusho and Zatch Bell etc. from a few years back.

[Sinco0]

Man I remember this, the funny thing was me and my whole familly stayed up late for each episode, even whatched the reruns the show was awsome

[Speigeleisen]

Man i had the Action figure of the Desert Gundam & Gouf Custom

[tom9154]

@Speigeleisen me too XD

[darshia33]

I had the main characters gundam toy. This was my favorite gundam, the others where meh

[Blastaar7]

anyone know the name of the beat playing during this? It also played everytime it was intro'd on toonami.

[Dragonian05]

I love that shot of the Gouf stabbing an enemy unit! It is cool in a dark, intense combat way.

[guitargodthor]

i can hardley find any anime on tv anymore... they should at least bring back the good anime for the new generation, anime like gundam, thundercats, outlaw star, tenchi, sailor moon, original dbz(not kai). that way, they can at least grow up with some good memories.

[DocSane]

I don't know why, but somehow having the voice of Optimus Prime talking about Gundam gives me the shivers.

[berserkberserker]

When ever I watch this, I like thinking of Norris Packard and Schwarzvald of Big O as the same person. Because of the voice actors...

Or because I play too much super robot wars..

[r3gie831]

norris packard ftw

[RUSSxT]

can someone explain to me what the black liquid that emits when the gouf custom stabs into the other mobile suit is? oil or something? maybe the pilot's blood?

[nflenz]

@RUSSxT It's oil.

[RUSSxT]

@nflenz go figure. any idea on who he stabbed? lol

[nflenz]

@RUSSxT That was Norris Packard stabbing a guntank. In that battle, Zeon needed to retreat, but could not because the guntanks would have taken down their escape ship. It's an excellent battle.

[RUSSxT]

@nflenz Ah yes, I believe it was an episode or so before the [original] ending of the series. Indeed this was a nice fight but I wish they had used more of the Gouf Custom than this one battle.

[Digatone]

Stuart Synder who took Toonami off the air has been fired so anime and Toonami will be back

[domineus]

@Digatone

there's no indication that neither is happening anytime soon

[sheldons7]

@Digatone

Youre kidding!

[Digatone]

@sheldons7 I just found out that Toonami will not be back

[nightslash3535]

@Digatone At least, we can still watch Gundam in our country.

[Digatone]

@nightslash3535 Gundam here in US was last seen on Syfy Channel

[polsenOO7]

@Digatone WHOA! I know your comment was 7 months old, but man I did not hear that! That's good news for Cartoon Network! Thanks for telling me about this.

[Digatone]

@polsenOO7 I hate to say this but Stuart Synder is not fired so he still working for CN.

[polsenOO7]

@Digatone Oh that's alright. At least I was happy for about 3 hours before you responded back with the update, lol

[Digatone]

@polsenOO7 Your welcome. Now that Toonami is dead Adult Swim will be next

[polsenOO7]

@Digatone Lets just pray & hope that doesn't happen.

[Blastaar7]

@Digatone oh yeah? doesn't seem that way. They cancelled symbionic titan even though it got high ratings and was critically acclaimed. They canceled it because there were no toys......

[ZSwierczynski]

@Blastaar7

08th MS Team actually did have toys. I remember having Gundam Toys from this series.

[rockfever723]

@Digatone

I wish I could agree with that sentiment, but I think that bastard drove CN so far into the ground it might be impossible to dig it back up to the point of watching anything. Just be glad Adult Swim functions as it's own network now, preventing CN interference(since they are both owned by Turner Broadcasting).

[ChainX]

@Digatone

*Points and laughs.

[gunblade197]

@Digatone actually i believe he resigned but i'm not sure, guy still needs to be murdered for what he did

[tHeWasTeDYouTh]

@Digatone fuck that asshole Stuart Synder

[MegaRoxaSora624x2]

@Digatone If thats true and Toonami does come back I'm gonna scream like a crazy fangirl lol.

[LeadGuardian]

@MegaRoxaSora624x2 I think most of us will! It will be a squeal heard round the world.

[barcakid101]

@Digatone really where u got this info ?

[Digatone]

@barcakid101 Google

[SchizoFilms]

@Digatone A year later, anime and Toonami are most certainly NOT on Cartoon Network. (Keep in mind, Adult Swim has its own board behind it, and isn't directly affiliated with CN)

[Toonami30]

I heard from a friend of mine that cartoon network fired the guy who canceled toonami. And now there are plans to bring it back on the air.

[AngelsFury69]

@Toonami30 WHAT!! ARE YOU SERIOUS, srry the nerd in me came out out the cage

[Deavios]

I remember staying up till midnight and then secretly sneaking downstairs to watch this show. I figured anything on at midnight on Toonami must be worthing watching and boy howdy, was I ever right.

Takes me back man, takes me back.

[cybertronization]

@Deavios When Toonami did their Midnight Run, I tried staying up long enough to watch *ThunderCats.*
