[Mr2011anthony]

[Mariorox10]

adult swim and boomeraction arent the same. toonami was the best. today, this "toonzai" crap rots kids brains. cencoring anime makes grow up them too soft.

[gundam833]

YES! Those were the days!! Shit I was 18 back then and still miss it. I hope IT IS COMING BACK.

[7leprechaun7]

"Kids Love It" WE DID....I did.... Anyone else heard?, Toonami is apparently coming back. I am crossing my fingers SO HARD they don't mess it up

[mikesoccer11]

It sucks how they moved DBZ and the others to midnight. I was pretty young, like 11, and couldn't stay up that late. Sucks.

[PeachWookiee]

I was one of the young adults who really enjoyed Cartoon Network when it aired stuff like this. Now... Toonami is gone and we have the drudgery of live-action.

[amadeus5889]

I remember sneaking out of my room to go watch the Midnight Run. Right before bed I'd drink a few sugary sodas just to make sure I couldn't go to sleep. Ah, good times.

[Naroon201]

Kids nowadays stay up playing shitty games like Call of Duty. When I was kid back then, I stayed up watching Toonami and adult swim anime. It's like all the games and anime just suck balls today.

[sakitakono]

T_T This makes me want to say I loved my childhood. lol

[1985Eazye]

this was BACK IN THE DAY.

[vol009S]

@1985Eazye

MINE TOO!!!! R.I.P 90s early 2000.

[SassoStudios]

It was the best of times...

[lilddonovandark]

damn i wwas only 3 watching dbz

[vol009S]

@lilddonovandark

Back in my Kindergarten days. Kids always talked about Toonami, DB and DBZ. Nowadays its Bakugon, Beyblade, and all that crap. I mean when my mother worked at a daycare again I sometimes helped her around a bit cleaning up the classrooms and see some kids playing here and there. And when I was saying: "Did you ever saw DragonBall Z? they where like.......o-o............as if they saw worms crawling out of me. I was so P'Od on Cartoon network. Now I'm ranting on it since.

[8589will]

i miss those days

[Wreck1990]

How the hell did I get from hokuto no ken abridged to old awesome toonami promos. These related videos are weird, but whatever. A walk down memory lane doesn't hurt.

I miss the old toonami.

[JackDaScarecrow]

@MrDBZ920 i dont care for some of the voices either wen i heard jeice's voice i couldnt watch it anymore

[JackDaScarecrow]

@MrDBZ920 I hate the music

[JackDaScarecrow]

Kids love it!!! datz my shit i b sayin dat shit all da time dont knobody be remembering what it's from

[mootime]

back when changes were good.

I remember staying up at midnight for toonami. 9th grade. My room was in the basement due to moving issues, and so i just stayed up watching it. Good programming block.

Adult swim kinda sealed the fate of toonami imo. Which sucks because adult swim hasnt been very good since like...2003.

[lilddonovandark]

@mootime adult swim has always been good its cn tht we shud be worring about

[mootime]

@lilddonovandark

nah adult swim is boring drivel now

[vol009S]

@lilddonovandark

Not anymore it ain't.

[cvav213]

we loved it.

[serk342]

dragon ball z wuz sick but guys if ur reading this take my advice dont watch "dragonball z kai" its a load of shit trust me they changed half of the crews voices including "frieza" and "gohan" and they calmed down the violence scene a little bit of blood as well, trust me its a no can do, its a fail plz dont waist ur time

[Meeperish]

Hehehehehe... sleep is for the weak. And the weak is the 1 person who disliked this.

[mattm203]

I Remember staying up late as a kid to watch DBZ!

[drumsjm787]

brings back memories

[sharky5921]

kids love it

[eckoboy130]

man midnight run was da best id stay awake and without my parents knowin and.....man brings bac memories haha does were da days....

[Demoniapsu]

I remember watching this and staying up wanting to see if Goku ever came back from Namek. These were such good times with a good line up then Cartoon Network started putting stupid things on to replace it. i was sooo pissed off when Cartoon Network let their show go downhill after.

[toonami2009]

wow these were good times

[AnimaniacsGuy]

@toonami2009 Well yes, they were good times, because this the Golden Age of Toonami in my own opinion, don't you agree? Then after this Midnight Run lineup they changed it to 08th MS Team, I was pissed. Then, they went back to Dragonball Z. Anyway, they were. I hated the last Midnight Run lineup, no more Dragonball Z. Lastly, I wish kids nowadays let fucking Cartoon Network have this to see how the Midnight Run was like. But, at last, those days, are gone. I wish though, I can though.

[vol009S]

@AnimaniacsGuy

Ahhhhhhhhh.........The Midnight Run. Until the final lineup and [adult swim].

[ThorMoto641]

@AnimaniacsGuy I would say the golden age was DBZ then Dragonball for the midnight run. awesome. got to stay up past my 6th grade bedtime.

[vol009S]

@toonami2009

Until the 11th that month.

[pratikh]

@toonami2009 Yup... September 2001. Sure was a good time.

[CartoonNothing]

Kids Love It!

[Caysekong]

this saga was in 2001?

[toonami2009]

go to wal-mart and buy the dvds lol

[PikachuColoredPichu1]

Then Adult Swim came...*sigh*...I want this era again.

[Fate263]

Toonami was definitely a badass back in the day. DBZ, Outlaw Star, Dragonball... too many greats flushed down the fucking toilet as time passed. I wish it came back. Or at least launch a channel by itself.

[lilguy1171]

i cant wait till the 2030's when i make my own version of toonami (feel free to comment)

[cutekittenlady]

Toonamis awesomness factor shot through the roof when they aired the funimation dub of One Piece. Here's my question, why is cartoon network ruled by a bunch of dumbasses now? In my opinion Toonami should be brought back with a vengeance!

[AdolescentChaos]

Ahhh good ol toonami. Back when cartoons were awesome. They should bring back toonami and play dbz remastered that'd be sweeeeet.

[kidflash34574]

toonami is awesome yhea good ol days but they should at least bring dbz back to cn

[PurpleWarrior13]

I remember this! I still have a VHS with this commercial recorded!

[dbzrocks2123]

Dbz was always my favorite show on toonami along with yu yu hakusho and outlaw start im 14 and trying to look up all of these shows so i can re watch them and remind me of good memories when i was just a child. i miss them =(

[Digatone]

I remember watching the midnight run during September 2001 by that year on September 11 attack I stop watching the news and watch Toonami to forget the horror I have seen on that day

[sakuraXmoto]

Good times, good times!

[jeianafa12547dj]

What's this back tune playing I love that jazz feel. Also I too grew up with toonami, I'm 19 now and I felt that is was like the euphoric kind of thing, late at night watching bad ass shows that weren't like the boring stuff other cartoon networks had to offer. I mean Cartoon Network was a dynasty that no one could beat and then they ruined it for reasons no rational person can understand.

[MullyFilm]

I remember back in 98 or 99 I stayed up to watch the uncut saiyan sagas with the original ocean dub. Man those were the days. Why get rid of something so spectacular? So many kids woul tell cartoon network to put toonami and dbz back on the air. They really should. Hell I'm 20 years old and I would watch it. I guess its too violent nowadays right? Psssh.

[LordMalice6d9]

I wish I had a time machine so I could go back and relive the good old days of toonami when they had all the good shows, but sadly that'll never happen.

[pokeman158]

in 2008, my friend would wake up at 3:00 in the morning just to see Yu Yu Hakusho.

[GeneStarWindGSW]

btw i always wanted to get the music that played in the background during this promo.

[GeneStarWindGSW]

just check my username. enuff said

[Zukyak]

Outlaw star was so fucking amazing

[Jamesjuinor13]

I want her to choose sonic,

[Neite09]

shit.. this promo is imprinted in my brain. i was so dbz obsessed as a 12 year old, i stayed up late just to get a few more hours of it in.

[Destructor2007]

@Neite

This.

Except add in a programmed/scheduled time to turn the TV on.

[Yonkage]

@Neite09

Nobody was as obsessed as I was. For a while when I was about 12, on Wednesdays, I watched new DBZ in the evening (think it was around 6:00) for an hour. Then I watched it at 10:30 on the international channel (unsubbed in the original Japanese, which I couldn't understand, but I was ahead of everyone I knew about the plot!) then it was another hour at midnight. I went to bed but had to get up at 4:00. But it was worth it.

[amcegoku06]

Fuck toonami know the dont have dragonball z olny that motherfucking naruto it sucks

[Omegaprotoman95]

u kno the reason y they didnt play repeats of db/z/gt after they finished it is because everyone hated GT for some reason?

[bh0294]

y did they have to put naruto on toonami when i was like 5 they had dragonball z nd dragonball batman nd all that kind of good shows i used to watch only toonami when i would come home from skool now its stupid shows like naruto that r on.

[edtifa]

yeah well what does it matter anyway now right? Cartoon Network is taking off anything that made their channel amazing and fun to watch including cancelling Toonami all together and Adult Swim only has like what 2 good anime series left to show? Unless you like Ben 10 dont even bother with Cartoon Network. (BTW Ben 10 is crap)

[bl4z3dwing200]

hey ima kid i was 4 yrs old watching yu yu hakusho and dbz

[Sixty4Palms]

=( this was when t.v was worth watching...ahh,to be young again and watch the midnight run before school in the morning lol =)

[bh0294]

lol yea

[cjrocks91393]

i remember when tom would rate games and shit man i miss toonami

[edtifa]

yup i remember the game reviews and also when they showed artwork fans made

[cjrocks91393]

yea good times

[smonk76]

it wont work..and even if it does its not this old toonami..its the newer 1..this toonami made my child hood(well i wouldnt say my whole childhood jst that entertainment part) butas im sad to say its dead and u cant bring something dead back

[Omnivoe]

I yeah I realize that now. And, you have a point.

[Colorful009Endings]

Thank You For Keeping this!

[superbroly263]

dose anyone rember when they had music video's on

toonami ?

[killerjohnny2]

I do, some Gorillaz videos, Daft Punk, and another video that I cant remember.

[mariocampos0]

Yeah daft punk and all those other ahhh i miss these days

[newtype2011]

@ Manganime4nick18

[TheYoSong]

I miss watching that every midnight ;(

[dbzfan5940]

they should take off miguzi and replace it with the old toonami. miguzi's so gay

[GarySpotter]

Miguzi's dead dude. Fosters is much much gayer

[yackdude]

LOL

[rere123456789]

Remember when they had the midnight run and the rising sun? Back when they used to show Toonami in the morning.

[Link4587452]

I'd stay up all night and be tired for school.

[folred]

dude i remember always for this commercial to come on so i could hear the beat... the old school toonami and the old adult swim alwways had some sick ass beats for their shit... damn wut happened? i miss those days...

[manganime4nick18]

oh a LOT has changed TOONAMI hAS tomas the tank engine as the host.

[newtype2011]

Your comment seriously made me laugh out loud.

...wtf are they thinking -

[Link4587452]

Now it's GONE! ALL GONE! Why? Because they did the WORST thing you could POSSIBLY do! Toonami was meant to be a show for TEENS, not little fucking KIDS!

[edtifa]

nope Midnight Run= for teens to adults(maybe kids too but more likely for the older kids) weekday lineup=kids to adults.

[Shinatsu]

omg...this was the shit back in the day....now toonami sucks...I mean wtf is up with miguzi?!

[randombguy]

yeah wtf is miguzi

[couz96797]

Well this was like the adult swim at that time.

[asshole4good]

They only way to bring back toonami back from the good old days is by complaining to the sponcers of the show.

And what I mean by that is, the commercials that they air after each Toonami anime. Those people pay Cartoon Network money to advertise their items inbetween the Toonami cartoons. Complain to the sponcering advertisers & that should bring results.

[i560kyle]

that song was awesome

[diamonddigger870]

ain't nothin changed the sad part is everything about toonami changed

[SonicFreak87]

Yeah. That's the sad part

[Karnezar]

*sigh* I miss that. . .6 long years ago

[tagadvance]

ditto, where did AnimaniacsGuy find this?
