  • that was the day i stopped watching cartoon network

  • 3) This happened in general before 08. They canceled all the good shows like Megas XLR and Justice League for no reason.

    4) The last reason being they listened to all the soccer moms and moved the Toonami timeslot from the afternoon to early evening. This is what killed Toonami. Piracy had nothing to do with it. It was all CN's bullshit.

  • The pathetic thing is I know a lot of people think Toonami was canceled because of piracy. Toonami was canceled because CN pretty much flat out wanted it gone. They wanted bad ratings as shown by what they did.

    1) Played Goosebumps for far longer than it should have been going for. The first 1-2 months was fine.

    2) Killed the timeslot from 4 hours to 2 hours with if I remember right half was Goosebumps and the other half was Naruto FILLERS. Continued

  • why I don't watch on TV? But I don't find. Even in the website. So remember my childhood: Megas XLR, Samurai Jack, etc. Then I realized: I watched Toonami when I was about 4 to 6 years old! But it wasn't on TV. Then I found this. When I watched this I was só

  • I born on 2001 in Brazil (Yeah I'm Brazilian and I'm good on English) and i heard of it. So I searched and watched animes of it online. Then I realized: W

  • i just thought that they were ending the broadcast for the night.. i miss you TOM.

  • what I hated was that They never announced they were ending Toonami until the end of that broadcast, i had no idea they were going to end it, i grew up to Toonami and this really brought me down

  • Bang

  • the first show i saw on toonami was gundam wing, after that i became engrossed with it, i watched toonami everyday

    i will always miss toonami, Cartoon network really should have not let it go, i hate to say it, but in terms of awesome series i find toonami is better in some categories than Adult swim

    toonami was a gateway to anime for many, and now that it is gone, it has become a sad world

    i salute to you tom

  • i remember watching dragonball z for the first time at the age of 5.

    watching raditz land and kidnap gohan was a amazing episode that got me hooked on toonami and DBZ.

    RIP cartoon network and adult swim and toonami

  • You're gonna carry that weight Tom....

  • That'e the gunshot that ended cartoon network

  • i thought this was a joke at first, i thought that toonami would be on next week and they would be like oh hahaha we got you, next week cometh...

  • I felt sad :( too know that i'm not a child anymore and too see one of my favorite people Tom leave in a bang he left me with memories and happiness even its for a split second. Stay gold Tom. Bang :)

  • One of the only times I saw Cartoon Network was when Toonami came on. Then Ed,Edd n Eddy was ended and. Cartoon Network ended for me :'(

  • Bang.See you space cowboy.

  • left me with memorie!?!?! YOU'RE ALL I EVER HAD!!

  • This video makes me suicidal.

  • This is to sad and scary to watch

  • i want teh song...Q~Q

  • Tom, you've left me with some of the greatest memories of my childhood.

    Thanks.

  • every time, it just gets me. Amazing how this video is still alive, how ppl still comment on it

    "See you, Space Cowboys"

    it finally made sense to me, its was that missing link, how could i have forgotten!

  • It made me smile when he said Bang(memories)

  • @jaxon19kira At first I thought it was a joke but then I realized.He sounds too serious to joke around,a hint of sadness was in his voice,his farewell was not artificial.It was a heartfelt apology more than a goodbye.

  • wats even sadder is that i remember watching this on tv.... it was so random....i thought it was a joke at first then... when it didnt air the next week i got sooooo upset!

  • this remind me why i dont watch toonami anymore

  • :'( wat sucks is that toonami was the last major anime broadcasting network . It gave us our favorite shows... remeber the days when we used to come in from school and drop our stuff and immediently turn on the tv to watch (dbz bobobo and NARUTO) toonami... we miss you and want you back toonami!....wat i want to do is get my friend to make me a website dedicated to petitioning for the return of toonami jetstream... i miss you so much.. i miss watching naruto every weekday after school dont you

  • Whats background music ?

  • @Xcoolydiego Tycho - Cascade.

  • @Xcoolydiego gets u too huh? adds some emotion?

  • after that day out of all the animes on cartoon network 2 of them wasn't bullshit

  • @savon211 um...after that day there were no more animes on CN...

  • I grew up in Canada without Toonami and even I'm depressed by this.

  • Toonami had a lot better shows then whats on today

    I miss you TOM Bang

  • GOD DAMNIT

  • Its been like 4 years... and I still can't get over this... f***... dam you cartoon network... just... dam you...

  • Bang.

  • =(....................

  • They should have brought back the old Tom just for this.

    Also I can see how much the Toonami team liked Cowboy Bebop, nice references.

  • @IMadeAllThese The voice of TOM is the american voice of Spike Speigel so i would say so.

  • this makes me want to cry everytime v.v

  • I like tom's old look

  • Toonami will be missed

  • this just made me want to cry, i really miss Toonami.

    RIP Toonami , you have no idea how much i miss you.

  • TOM....like a boss...we'll never forget you....

  • I really miss Toonami..... T__T

  • I just realized...it's not who's in charge who is the person that made a difference...it was the one that actually worked on the block. Steve Blum was the voice actor for T.O.M.'s 2 and up, as well as a voice dub for many anime shows. It's kinda funny how the person that is hardly ever thought of by the viewers suddenly becomes the hero of a generation. Everyone has a voice...Steve Blum did...I think we can turn things around...(thumbs if you agree).

  • NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :f7u12:

  • why did they turn them so gay looking

  • Whats The Background Song Called ?

  • @blunts26k Tycho - Cascade

  • @herespaul wow thanks  hard to find someone who knows

  • @Ale6ander579 Haha that's cool. I heard it recently and was seriously surprised when I saw the music in this video.

  • I almost cried when I watched this.

  • the last line is from the book "the outsiders"

  • If let that android free itl be the end of all us! NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

  • Man I hate the new cartoon network. Luckily I'm not like my brothers and sister who like the new cartoon network more than the old one.

  • Watching this clip for the first time...

    "Bang."

    Nostalgia Mode: Hardcore Engaged

  • *Manly tear*

  • Stuart Snyder, may you take your place in hell with the execs of 4Kids.

  • wow some douche on facebook sent me here. brings back some pretty chill memory's.

  • thunbs up if u wanna kill 69 people with me!

  • @gokuspir3r They probably disliked it because it made them really sad. Try this instead:

    Thumbs up if u wanna beat the crap out of Stuart Snyder!!!

  • @ASkinnyWhiteGuy BTW I don't support causing anyone any physical injuries or pain, but I would like it if Snyder were banned from Cartoon Network or demoted to a late night janitor or something.

  • @ASkinnyWhiteGuy I want to cause him pain... LOTS of and LOTS of pain.

  • when i watched the broadcast live, i was about 8 or 7 years old, and when this came up, i asked my older brother what he was saying and he told me "toonami is over now", once i heard this, i cried.

  • When he said "Bang" and the end was it a reference to the ending of Cowboy Bebop? or is it not?

  • @pencil977 Of course it is.

  • @pencil977 Yes it was. Same voice actor

  • @pencil977 same guy for Spike Spiegal and a bunch of other anime characters

  • toonami 1997-2008...2013-? better happen, i want all the old shows back, even if it starts of with shows like naruto again. maybe we will actually meet again

  • Wow leting go of toonami was the biggest mistake cn they ever made

  • whats the song?

    I MISS TOONAMI :C

  • y did they get rid of toonami anyway

  • @bdc9239218

    The guy who was in charge of Cartoon network at that time hated anything to do with anime or cartoons and wanted to bring to all live action stuff. He made it to where Toonami had a shorter time frame, then cancelled the instant it had lower ratings..He also took a lot of the anime's off.

    He's fired now, and the shows they play now show that. They've been bringing back a bunch of anime's.

  • @feindwalker Whoever that guy was, he was epic douchebag, why put yourself in charge of something like that, when you don't like what the whole thing is about??? That would be like a guy who hunts exotic and endangered animals wanting to be in charge of PETA.

    And besides, all that live action stuff was terrible, stale, stiff, corny (and this from an adult who still likes cartoons and anime), and the actors felt forced, no organic or genuine feeling.

  • @feindwalker I've heard otherwise, but I've been too busy to check teh interwebz for facts.

  • @feindwalker Wow... that's just stupid.

    I hope that guy struggles to find a job anywhere.

  • THEY'RE BRINGING IT BACK BUT THEY NEED MASSIVE FUCKING SUPPORT.

  • @bob13377 got it from brock obama huh? :3

  • @joseohcoolkid1 oh you....

  • @joseohcoolkid1 Yeah, thats how i heard of it! lol i completely forgot about toonami until Brock obama said something about it.

  • I loved this show also :/ when it first started I liked Anime, Adult Swim was first then this. They need to bring back the old childhood shows and not the newer ones...newer ones are starting to suck and not funny no more....it's...kids now. I cried when Toonami ended..

  • I WANT TO MEET AGAIN TOM!!! T_T

  • cartoon network is shit the only thing keeping that fuckin network alive is adult swim

  • What's the song that's playing? I can't seem to find it

  • @Chilllaxxinn Tycho - Cascade

  • a moment of epic beauty and major war. The thing no one could live without or die before they saw it's end.The glory of blood and victory was their's and nothing was sweeter to them or us. This was tonami

  • Makes my sad.

  • I promised my self i wouldnt cry again. I swore is...BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH­HHHAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!! I MISS IT SO MUUUUUUUCH!!!!!!!

  • If someone can make a professionally photoshopped image of T.O.M. 3.0 ripping out Stuart Snyder's intestines and smashing his head into the ground Alex Mercer-style, I would love to see it. I'm not a sadist...it's just that what Snyder did to us all REALLY pisses me off.

    When will we ever meet again...

    See you Tom...

  • :( man i first got into anime on toonami when they showed one piece and bobobo bo bo bobo. Its so depressing what cartoon network has become

  • toonamiaftermath(.)com

    Hello again.

  • Toonami was da best

  • All of the Feels.

  • "But... TOM, we won't ever see you again... please don't go..."

  • ;~; WRRRYYYY?!

  • what changed in the higher ups should really be called out for doing a terrible job since the ending of toonami and not at least trying once more to recreate this level of gold .

  • You know it broke my heart when they killed toonami. i got into anime because of them my first true anime love was gundam wing .got the box set when it was over 200 from Virgin megastore i was in Hs,lots of saving to get it . to this day i still have that box out on display for the fact it started my love of anime its so sad what cartoon network has become.

  • dang is right toonami was the best

  • TT_TT My childhood is blasting off again.

  • If you're missing Toonami, check out toonami aftermath, a lot of the same shows with no commercials and plays continuously. Also has old bumps from toonami and cartoon network.

  • You're gonna carry that weight.

  • In case some of you aren't currently aware, there is a certain thing called "Toonami Aftermath" that you should google immediately.

    Go forth. Relive your childhood.

  • OMG TOONAMI IS COMING BACK! LOOK UP NEOTOONAMI BIG PREVIEW ON YOUTUBE! YOU CAN FIND IT! OMG IM SO EXCITED!

  • @Drew6187 Nice :D

  • @Drew6187 Dude, it's gonna be at least another year or two before NeoToonami is ready to go...sorry for the buzzkill, but yeah, it's gonna be awhile...

  • @ASkinnyWhiteGuy Sorry to burst YOUR bubbles but neotoonami is fake.

  • @Drew6187 Okay then...send me a link to prove it. I won't trust blogs or wikis but I do trust factual sources. Or are you just trolling...?

  • when toonami left everybody new that cn was dying

  • @djboi789 I second this motion! The CN is barely keeping its head above water with all their ****-life-preservers. And I'm tempted to hold them under, its not even the "Cartoon" Network anymore. The only time I even watch it is when the anime blocks are on on saturday.

  • @AxelisaHERO it is good that they making neotoonami so there is some thing to look forward to

  • BRING IT BACK i will watch your show for now on if you do 3:

  • This video is like watching a family member die slowly and painfully over and over again.

  • Until we meet again...

  • who knows maybe it will return in a cuple more years

  • Am I the only one who teared up a little?

  • @foxlalala123 nope

  • @foxlalala123 Not by a longshot.

  • The reason TOM said bang and at the end they said "See you, space cowboy" is because after the first TOM changed they gave him a voice and that voice was the one of Spike from Cowboy Bebop and if you remember correctly at the end of Cowboy Bebop Spike points a hand shaped like a gun and says bang and one of the last lines is "See you, space cowboy". Just clarifying

  • Cartoon network!!!!! Bring back my childhood, adulthood is lame.

    T_T

    Toonami <3

  • @LadyBat2527

    I FUNKIN AGREE THE SHIT THEY PUT ON CARTOON NETWORK ""SUCKS""!!!!!

  • go on toonamiaftermathcom . there a live stream of the old toonami. thumbs up so other fans can see

  • The beginning of the end..... and now chowder, gumball, adventure time, total drama, the regular show?! Really lame and pathetic. I'm 17 so I got to enjoy this great era a little bit, but I feel sorry and a big amount of shame for the crap there is now. It caters to stupidity and foolishness, all the preteens and kids have really missed out.....bang.

  • the reason they said bang,, was because CN died exactly at that moment.

  • @sonybajor12 LOL THIS IS TRUE LMAO

    

  • >see you space cowboy

    ending motto of cowboy bebop?

  • this makes me sad :(

  • Toonami Aftermath is fully functional

  • F*ck you Cartoon network! I didnt get to experience a lot of it when I was younger! D:<

  • @MegaFoxdude hey hey woah just shut up you jerk cartoon network is the best so shut up you jerk

  • Cartoonnetwork are jerks for getting rid of toonami!

  • Manly tears are shed every time I watch this. I feel sad for the kids who didn't experience all of Toonami like I did. They're being brainwashed with this stupid shit of today.

  • I miss Toonami. I want to see it back. 

  • Well sadly one day out of the week isnt enough for anime....off to watch bleach nd everything else....while we still have it :'(

  • This just makes me sad and angry. Cartoon Network was WRONG to get rid of Toonami just as it was WRONG that TPCI got rid of the original cast of Pokemon and REPLACED THEM with AMEUTEURS!

  • @voiceactoritrainin1 good times now its dead

  • Toonami= the Savor of Television

  • stay gold johnny... STAY GOLD

  • @SAVAGEMAU5 the outsiders... nice

    

  • God, this is painful to watch.

  • They need to bring toonami back!!!

  • Okay, this is the last comment on this vid I'll be making for a while...I just don't want to fill up the comment area with the random stuff I'm blabbing out.

    An epic rap battle of history should be between Stuart Snyder and T.O.M. 2 or 3.

  • I cant tell how many times I say "Bang" to end conversations to honor this even though it's referencing bebop.

  • " Hopefully we left you with some good memories".....Yes, yes you fucking have *man tears

  • Tears man, tears.

  • thats fuckin depressing...i am sad now...

  • At least CN had the decency to say a respectful good bye to their fans unlike every other program they canceled.

  • @texmexman1 Agreed

  • Can someone please tell me how many comments I have made just on this video...? I feel like I should lay off the comments a little...

  • In a way, Stuart Snyder did to anime (and Cartoon Network in general), what Adolf Hitler did to the Jews...he killed them in cold blood and everyone hates him for it. I know this may sound a bit extreme, but there isn't really much of an explanation I can think of right now besides this...

  • Sometimes I wonder if I should try to become an anime cartoonist. I kind of already have an idea for a show...

  • I'll always stay gold for you, Tom. Always.

  • I was sooo sad this day when toonami ended! I was 6 when it started back in 97 and i remember watching all they way up to 2008 when it ended damn.... i blame then end of toonami on Naruto's lameness!!!

  • @USCTrojansFan420 It wasn't Naruto...it was Stuart Snyder. He openly bashed anime, and when he took charge of Cartoon Network, Toonami was one of the first things to go.

  • Is that a homage to Cowboy Bebop?

  • @AnonyAnimal Yes, the 'Bang' is dubbed off of Cowboy Bebop. As well as the 'See you, Space Cowboy!' is also another homage. Since they both ended the same year.
