  • omg! He said "Bang..." at the end! DAMMIT I SAID I WOULDN'T CRY WHEN I SAW THIS!! ; _ ;

  • In my opinion Tom 3.0 was the best version of Tom and Tom 4.0 was the worst version of Tom he should have never had a face his old helmet mask/visor head was way cooler then his 4.0 face

  • Goodbye Tom we shall all miss you...but before you go I have one question how come after 11+ years of Toonami and 3 upgrades we are just now learning about your rockets boots at the very end all?

  • why did they have to change tom!?

  • I remember crying after seeing this. Then I went into denial untill I realized it wasn't a joke... :(

  • I never found out that Toonami ended until a year later. I stopped watching it cause all I saw was Naruto and nothing else. I hear he will make a return though in 2011-2014.

  • This show was the best when watched high.

  • Toonami was fucking great. I miss it.

  • Toonami must be resurrected... We must destroy the live-action. Cartoon Network would have better ratings if they would go back to what they were. The anime fans, the classic cartoon fans, the newer fans of animation... We built Cartoon Network, and now they are trying to destroy it! For heaven's sake, people, animation is not FOX live-action rejects! It's not Seth MacFarlane alone! And it sure as heck isn't CGI alone!

    Help get Toonami back. Copy and Paste this into other vids. Come back, Tom!

  • Bang... just like spike

  • Why'd they want to cancel Toonami?

  • TO ALL TOONAMI FAITHFUL DO YOU WANT TOONAMI BACK THEN GO TO FACEBOOK AND JOIN THE GROUP OPERATION:RE-BOOT THERE U WILL RECIEVE INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO HELP REVIVE TOONAMI BUT THIS IS ONLY FOR HARDCORE TOONAMI FANS

  • bang.

    :*(

  • from me being 6 in 1996 to 14 in 2004 im glad i got to watch cartoon network in its glory years

  • what a pile pf crap from ''TOM'';S MOUTH

  • @Comedylord15 May you rot in hell.

  • toonami was the only reason i stayed up on Saturday's when i was a child. when i heard that it was going to be cancelled i started crying. now all they have is educational Shows for the kids of the future. that was a stupid move cartoon network. and i think we all agree.

  • Man I Miss toonami it sucks Fuck Cartoon Network Flapjck,Dude What would happen insted of Dragon Ball Z,Sailor Moon,and Transformers

  • @Brito5656 I know! I loved watching Sailor moon!! and then one day...it just was gone...my TV show wasn't there :(

  • i really liked toonami...but apart of me kind of hopes it doesnt come back..i know ppl will disagree but if it did it would never be the same as it once was..it might become worse...so as sad as it makes me it makes me happy to think of the memories

  • don't worry man no one here i hope is gonna grill you well all think of toonami differently so yeah i see what you mean.

  • bang.

    cuz thats wat tom went 2 go do 2 his wife after 12 years on a spaceship, watching endless cartoons.

  • ;_;

  • I didn't even notice it was gone until recently. Damn, I think I might cry. All those days in elementary school, when we'd all run home to watch it! Fuck, man. :'/

  • TOONAMI FOREVER!! INSIDE OURSELVES!

  • Shit, eleven years? Honestly, I stopped watching around the time Tom took on his third form, which was a buffer version of himself.

    I can still remember the time when the alien invader blob attacked his ship and ate him. After that he took on the roll of a more mature form.

  • toonami needs to come back! it was awsome! and when it ended i cried... and they need to make a toonami tv channel or youtube channel...

  • yea it was awsome

  • yeah, i'm surely about 2 miss it.......

  • man the one thing good on cartoon network and they end it ? I HATE CN SO MUCH !!!!! When I saw this I was so mad that I called cn with my cell phone and I cursed out the person on the phone to tell me who ended toonami, cartoon network made me mad when they changed tom into a stuped toony robot but this is even worse, and now how am i going to spend my saterdays know :( but I am going to remember what tom told us to remember the good times we spent on toonami.

  • bye bye tom daisuki

  • i just cried... a tear ran down my face when he said,stay gold. dang it, pure genius....

  • i feel you we all know that feeling

  • Yeah man, thanks for posting this up, means a lot

  • we hope that in the future tom will return and so will toonami

  • @1Ice1 me too bro me too

  • someone should just beat up the guy who is in charge of cartoon network. Why hasn't anyone done that yet?

  • TED TURNER

  • STUART SYDER destroy it

  • i love the Cowboy Bebop reference

  • I'm in ToonamiRebel~!!!!! My tears can prove it!!!!

  • the real toonami died in like 2003. also i love how he says "bang" at the end as a refrence to cowboy beebop (the guy who did the voice of tom, steve blum, also does the voice of spike)

  • Toonami MUST come back on saturdays!!!!!!!

  • Toonami was canceled because Tom turned into that...thing in this video. That is not Tom

  • "Bang" - cowboy bebop reference

  • I have an idea how to bring Toonami back. If you are interested, you can join me. If you're not, you don't have to.

  • u forgot already toonamirebel i'm with u already lol!!

  • I am sorry. I am just looking for everybody who wants Toonami back.

  • OK TOONAMI REBEL

  • @ToonamiRebel  how do i help bring it back

  • gonna miss toonami

  • you could of left us with better memories by not sucking in the end....thats y u were cancelled

  • I WILL KILL CN! WTH IS MY ANIME NOW?! NOWHERE BUT THE INTERNET! AND WHAT DOES CARTOON NETWORK HAVE NOW? WHAT ydounotremember13 SAID SOME STUPID 5YR OLD SHIT! THERE AGAINST JAPANESE ANIME REVOLT!!!!

  • this new CN is disgusting and revolting...

    i know im not supposed to linger on it too much, but think what today's kid's missed out on when their being fed shit like Flapjack and Chowder <.<

    Trust me, that era of cartoons will be forever untouchable... i'd remember freakin' coming home from school early just to watch that groundbreaking toonami lineup... then it got stuck on to saturdays only... then it just poofed away...

  • The sad thing is that the Golden Anime Era toonami brought to us is still happening... there are still awesome shows coming out of Japan, and CN almost fatally wounded their American Airplay... Now if you want it, you have buy the supper expensive channel pack to get the Anime Chanel- which isn't even available in all areas... RIP Tom When I think of my childhood from 4th grade on up, Toonami stands out front and center as the highlight of almost every weekday- lump in my throat watching this

  • >Flapjack

    >Shit

    I beg to differ

  • man toonami was great back in the day, remember thay had that awsome lineup, Dragon ball z, tenchi muyo, gundam wing and outlaw star. and what the heck happend to tom?

  • Toonami should never have been canceled

    They should've just moved it off of Cartoon Network and let there be a Toonami channel

    A whole channel with Toonami shows

  • tom's old suit looked better. like a biker helmet.....

    i spent so many good years watching toonami and the old cartoon network. the new one sucks with all the stupid shows....goodbye....toonami...­.

  • Fuck the new Cartoon Network

    I want the old one back!!

  • i agree

  • it would be nice to bring back toonami thanks to it i discovered the tenchi series such great memories

  • I said it once before and I'll say it again...

    RIP TOONAMI

    You have been missed!

    Also...I'm the only one who think's [AS] kinda hates anime?

  • I remember tom 1 and the first previews before toonami even came out (trust me if i still had the preview i'd put it up) but Toonami introduced our generation to Anime, because lets face it, no kid 13 and under in 1997 knew what it was, and when we first saw the spikly hair of dbz and the almighty tom come on the bridge of the absolution, we were changed forever,thanks for the memories, maybe when CN gos down the shitter, we will see you again tom =)

  • D:

    Why?

  • LOL did he seriously just say Bang? I'm not the only one who sees the humour there right?

  • The guy who voices Tom is the same guy that voices Spike from Cowboy bebop (Steven Blum). "Bang" is a direct quote from his former role as Spike. "Bang" is also the last line in Cowboy Bebop, which may be why they saw it fit that he would say it for the conclusion of Toonami.

  • Uh, yes...yes you are.

  • Why did they cancel it?

  • if i had to gues maybe they got tired of it, or toonami is getting more ratings than any other show they had in their network. or maybe toonami is the only reason people watch cartoon network and thats a good thing. where else could we find awesome anime on tv right? with toonami gone cartoon network isnt what it should always be. thanks toonamikid your awesome if only cartoon network knew what they have done then maybe they would still be a hit. now we must rely on adult swim for awesome bummer

  • Cartoon network is like rap back then there was alot better cartoons lie rapers used to be better back then

  • Comment removed

  • but there is an upside to this, Cartoon Network's reatings have fallen throught the floor for ending Toonami, logo changing, and that they no longer show any good cartoons. I'm just waiting for them to bring it back

    Cartoon Network is now like a car with no tires, it ain't getting too far before it breaks down

  • Goodbye Toonami Goodbye Tom. Toonami is the greatest show ever. It introduced me to my fav Anime in the World DRAGON BALL Z with my fav character the uiltimate underdog Krillin. Thats what started the anime craze over here in America was TOONAMI and Cartoon network better take wind of that shit to.

  • wow i'm glad i'm not alone. i thought i was the only 1 who like krillin on dbz. everybody esle liked vegeta.

  • OVER 9000!!!

  • Toonami better come back, it was the best and longest block on cartoonnetwork and the main part that showed the best cartoons ever. It was the main thing I looked forward to saturdays for and when it was on weekdays it was the first thing I turned the tv on when I came from school. Best thing Cartoonnetwork ever had...

  • this is something we must accept toonami was destined to die there is something we should all do keep it in our memory's forever if we should complain to cartoon network about anything its there crappy shows now...

  • You stay gold, too, Tom! :sniff:

    Damn straight Toonami left me with some good memories. A lot of good memories. If it weren't for Toonami, I would of never gotten into anime or know what an "anime" is.

    Thank you, Toonami! You may not be on any more as of 2008, but you will live on in the hearts and minds of your fans that remembers you. :)

  • screw cn for canceling toonami

  • Its so beautiful watching tom flying into the sun set.

  • wow i cnt believe it just wow i remembered wen they first started

  • wow...i remember when they first started!!

  • yeah, the bebop joke was awesome. i was like "wow. they DO remember what their glory was"

  • i miss toonami, the new saturday line up is trash and we've been wit toonami since we were young kids its not fair

  • omg i no

  • Talk about ending on a sour note.

  • hey, at least they managed to get a cowboy bebop joke in

  • agreed a salute Toonami!

    until you return better than before

  • Man, if I'd known about this I would've sat down and watched the whole thing, even the shows I didn't like.

    I salute you Toonami!

  • sigh, i miss the old toonami so much, the promos, tom, the shows, just everything about toonami. always be missed.

  • God damn CN! I'm starting a boycott

  • 'Bout F*ckin time. Toonami was awesome but after 04 it started to suck.

  • How did I miss this?

  • why?...why?...WHY?!?!?!...:"(

  • Outlaw star, Cowboy bebop ( I think they had that), Yu yu hakosho, and all that jazz.

    I dont even like Anime, but I loved those ones.

    I remember the good times ( DBZ, Outlaw star, bebop, Hakusho) andf the bad times ( WHEN THEY PUT POWERPUFF GIRLS ON TOONAMI what the hell was that about?)

    and I remember being so sad when the first Tom died and got eaten by that blob thing but got replaced by super cool Tom 2. Good times man

  • Oh my god! Just seeing this makes me cry!!!

  • yes. my old friend i cried manly tears that day

  • Gah!! just hearing his voice and the music...after this long. But, i heard they were getting their own station...i doubt it.

  • never forget... 9/20/08

  • Holy crap, 11+ years?? I remember day one...Yeesh.

    Well, Toonami soured about halfway through, I just lost interest once Tenchi disappeared.

    "Bang"

    Love the reference :D

  • tom got gay looking i misshim that bastard -sobs- i was there for tenchi, gundam wing, and outlaw star, even sailor moon why did you have to die cartoon network your gem has faded away now theres nothing left but mubsy wubsy ocaisonal dexters lab reruns and some midday action zone B.S.

  • This was obviously coming though,I mean they made Tom look gay and now this.Good going CN :/

  • damn,im only 19, and i remember back when toonami was for older people, cause they started it at midnight or around there, with Dragonball/Z and the others, then moved to Saturday evenings around 4 with G Gundam (my fav), then to Sat. nites withs Yuyu Hakusho... didnt even know it came off, I just wondered why I saw bullshit Chowder on a Saturday nite last week...

  • Outlaw Star...G Gundam...Tenchi Muyo....

    ...so many memories... =(

  • lol, dont remind me, i got cable the night that outlaw star ended its run on CN forever, so depressing... G Gundam on Sat. evenings made up my life from there

  • Im not surprised at all. Cartoon Network did it to themselves. They took a good block and fucked it up when they revamped TOM a year ago. Plus the whole moving the show all over the fucking place and never giving it a solid showing screwed things up too. If the brought the original airing block 4:00 to 7:00, it would probably become popular. That and they would have to show the old school anime shows and not that ADHD shit. RIP TOONAMI.

  • agreed shadow, i've been watching since we had the ORIGINAL tom, and not this one... when they had that event to save him, thats when i kinda started. but after naruto came on i just kinda stopped, but man i'll miss it.

  • this actually made me really sad. i mean i watched toonami for most of my life. its always sad to see sumthin end... bang

  • Bang. Following my dreams brotha, thx Tom..

  • There is gonna be an action block replacing Toonami on Friday Nights

  • Yeah Good reference to the best Anime ever; Cowboy Bebop!

  • thats cause he actually was the same guy that did spikes voice

  • I not belevie it, when did they show this!?

  • *duo scream* you MONSTERS!!!!! how could they that's a piece of my childhood dying away R.I.P. toonami!!

  • Damn...There goes the last best thing on Cartoon Network. =[

  • WTF.....im 22 years old and I watched Toonami up until they "remodeled" Tom. CN is fucking gay....that was definitely their number one show on the whole CN's block. Even with this new verison...geez..I miss Sara..and the Absolution. and the old Tom. COWBOY BEBOP. SEE YA SPACE COWBOY! guess I gotta grow up... >.>

  • Ugh, I missed Toonami T^T

    Toonami ended in the UK about a few years now >:C

    It was an awesome channel.

  • Why... WHY?? This is really depressing. :'(

    Tom and Toonami will be greatly missed.

    RIP Toonami 1997-2008

  • LUL, they stole the "Bang" thing from Cowboy Bebop. :/

  • .... I cant beleif it... well it was a great 9 years for me =) (i didnt know about it until 2 years after, im 15)

  • Sigh. I remember watching Toonami back in the days of Moltar. I almost feel like crying; my eyes seriousl stung as I watched this.

    ...God, I feel old.

    I was ALWAYS into the storylines of TOM versions 1-3. I even used to play the game on the CN website xDDD Good times, man.

    I don't know where CN's going from here; I'll admit to not watching Toonami since TOM v.4, but the shows sucked, give me a break.

    Also love the 'Bang' at the end. Nice reference to Steve Blum/Bebop.

  • This saddens me ;_______;

    I've also been watching Toonami since its inception.

    I'm already 18 now, and it really feels like part of my childhood was erased.

    Goodnight, sweet prince.

  • my brother said yeah right so I punched him in the gut toonami was great.

  • oh WHAT??? so there gonna cancel toonami??? wtf are they gonna do, put more gay camp lazlo on?? gimme back my anime!!

  • this suks

    :( sob crie

  • You did Tom...you did...

  • WHUT!?

    When did toonami end!?

    =[ *cries*

  • I just found out. If I had known it was ending, I would have watched that final showing. I'm 19 now and have been watching since it started, excluding this most reason year. That means I've been watching since I was 8. Wow. I almost feel like a part of me has died. Cartoon Network is really running itself into the ground.

  • recent*

    And of course....Bang, right back at'cha

  • Yeah, I almost cried and i NEVER cry. I thought I was going nuts at first but then I relized I was too sane on the situation. I'll miss the nights of my childhood waiting for tom and the absolution to sail on my Tv screen like an omen of good-will keeping me entertained all night and- yup I just let out a tear .

  • the thing hat brought fame to CN(FAGS)the thing that brought anime to the u.s.a...the thing that gave us a reason to stay up on saturdays...OUR CHILD HOOD...is gone...i cried the nite it happend and a few hrs ago to think something i grew up on is gone

    R.I.P. toonami,tom u will be missed stay gold..and bang right back at ya

  • Ugh, Someone ripped off a portion of my heart =(

  • Why... did... this... happen?

  • i could kinda cry. i have been watching this this since it started. this is BS. ; (

  • My childhood! D= It just imploded upon itself!

  • RIP Toonami

  • omfg. whoever did this is going to DIE... i am sad. I will kill my friend tomorrow. he was on the phone with me...at this time... I JUST WATCHED IT!

  • Toonami 4 lyfe. I watched Toonami since I was 4. I'm 15 now and it's gone..Dragonball Z, Gundam..then Rurouni Kenshin and Yu Yu Hakusho made their way into the Toonami family along with a whole bunch of other great and epic Animes. RIP Toonami 1997-2008..

  • this make sad that will be nice if they come

    back but not this suck(--)

  • i almost cried when i saw this

  • Whaaaat? This is so completely awful!

    Now we have to rely on Adult Swim for our anime, but they only show like... 3 shows, and have their time slots taken up by crappy gory creepy shows that aren't worth the 10 bucks they spent to make them! T_T This is awful!

    I'll miss you Tom... you were the best. T_T

    I need to go write an angry letter now. :)

  • Preach it brother, preach it!

  • I wish Toonami and Adult Swim could join together and make their own TV network... that would be great. IDK WTF the new president of CN is thinking but all I know is... I want him fired... like, now!

  • yeah! you tell them!

  • man this is stupid

  • oh no thats terrible tonnami was the greatest thing to happen to us all right so as a fellow fan of toonami we will miss u tom and the bad thing is that i think we might have to rely on adult swim to provide us with awesome anime, but adult swim had changed over the years from straight anime to weired shows that arn't event anime and we gonna have to stay up late just watch them am i right people ^_^

  • Man this sucks. CN really messed up Toonami.

  • You also have to understand that back in toonami's glory days. There was no youtube or online sites to simply download/watch full length high quality anime. The mix of bad anime, illegal downloaders, and the founding/fad of subbed anime made Toonami really is SOL. PLUS shows like the kids shows before, and adult swim's line up made it tough for Toonami to compete. Think about it, what does toonami show today that could compete with family guy? Not to mention adult swim has it's own anime now.

  • yeah that true too big Toonami couldn't team up with adult swim showing bleach, death note, and many many many new anime that haven't even shown up in america. Tom was the man best show was Toonami well it was a fun ride but in the end it was the best thing have in our childhood Toonami forever

  • yeah.. RIP. :(

  • Yeah Toonami the best show to watch anime.

  • well you never know. Now three things can happen. 1. Cartoonetwork kills the toonami time. 2. Adult swim kills the toonami time. 3. Cartoonetwork realizes how many viewers they are going to lose and start aring anime line ups even worst then before. Either ways unless its OLD toonami, I'm not supporting them at all.

  • yeah but i wonder what will happen next's I mean what will happen to the anime that was support to be shown on Toonami now that it gone?

  • Hmm. I never thought about it. I don't watch too much TV anymore but last I remember anime was pretty much exclusive to toonami... I'm sure the people at TV Tokyo are considering their options. Losing that big of a foot in the american market must mean trouble. I say let it all go digital download. A GOOD bit of anime is already on itunes and whatnot. Anime on Hulu? IDK. Maybe they will still air ANIME but no toonami.

  • yeah I hope so because without anime what the point of watching cartoons? I mean cartoons i like but anime is what bring the fun out of kid what bring out the kid in our souls

  • yeah... IDK. I mean there are still shows like avatar out there. As for me, I would die without anime and have fled to alternatives. RIP toonami. :(

  • Yeah Anime is life!

  • Is toonami over? Or are they going to get a new tom?

  • nope tom and toonami is not comeing back it's a shame
