[Mustaine411]

[Mustaine411]

@Seanselot CN Fucked Up Everything After We Grown Up They Downgraded So Much ):

[MultiPBW]

Man, do I miss Toonami so dearly. It had some of the best anime shows that I've ever watched within its block.

[Seanselot]

It's either i've grown up, or cartoon network sucks now.

[MrDraygoX]

@Seanselot probably both

[skaterboyski1217]

[BlazeNeon1]

Behold The Color Gold.....Only Toonami

[Gameday2011]

Spike "Bang"

[TurboJesus3000]

I'm a 20 year old man and yet this almost brings me to tears. I've got the weight of the world on my back now, I'm a lonely miserable bastard. But this, it brings back all those great memories at once and for a little bit I felt truly happy again. Thanks Tom, for some of the best times I've ever had.

[MoneksZ]

>yfw CN will never have a block like Toonami ever again

>yfw they'd rather air johnny fucking test

[oscar13r13]

aah toonami was the baws back in the day

bring it back pls

[kittyzilla90]

what the hell was that at the end?

[kragmoor1]

fucking onions

[Halo003qd]

i have to say while it would be awesome if they brought toonami back it just wouldnt be the same

[bladebreaker10]

We should friggen get infront of cartoon network and like protest shitty about how we gave em years of ratings and they pay us back with bull shit t.v.! WE NEED THE GOOD OL' STUFF BACK!! WHERE DEPRIVING TODAYS YOUTH WITH HORRIBLE T.V.!!!

[SailorPLuto89]

Toonami was my childhood... so many happy hours spent being introduced to anime!!! Sailor Moon and Tenchi Universe are still my favorites today!!!! It'd be awesome if they bring it back!!! The stuff cartoon network plays today is terrible and lacks imagination of any kind.

[Dante33ification]

and from that moment on cartoon network got shitty

[Sephirothpie]

@Dante33ification You mean, from that moment on, Cartoon Network was embarrassing to watch

[Hotdogknight409]

i remember this i wuz 8 or 7 i thought they wer joking and every time saturday came i turned the tv on to watch one piece and naruto it didnt come on i couldnt handle it they left me with so many awesome memories i never got to see the rest of one piece R I P Tom :')

[BlazeNeon1]

@JazzyXEdward Was what recent exactly?

[thejet1345]

I hated when they cancelled toonami. Its what made C.N. cool. Tom was my hero and I think it was stupid to take him away. stupid C.N.

[Roxas6674]

3,122 people HATE TOM D:<

[skulkid01]

I...cried when this happend. The memories we had man.... I miss when we had the good stuff on. Live on Tom....Live on :'(

[picklemnstr11]

I remember seeing this! :O

[Magnaliscous]

Hmm... sadly this was the worst incarnation of tom IMO, still sad that toonami had close down...

[xsvmaster]

@Magnaliscous Have to agree there. The voice didn't really match the character.

[Magnaliscous]

@xsvmaster The model Was terrible IMO, just poor design

[resdientevil100]

i dont care what anybody say, toonami was the best, man i wish i was a kid again

[killer02907]

@CentennialPAO I know and now they have bullshit on CN that ain't even worth watching

[CentennialPAO]

The day cartoon Network died and became a tool for disney worshipers

[BlazeNeon1]

Bring Back Toonami

[PiscesPrincess327]

Was I the only one crying when this was on TV? Man such wonderful memories! I wish I was a kid again :(

[ltmajorcrunch]

For those of you who still want this stuff, go to toonamiaftermath , com. They play a bunch of shows from Toonami, old CN, and Adult Swim action, as well as other stuff like MST3K. They even play the old intros and commercials in between.

[accelerator111100]

we will never forget you tom...and i feel sorry for my siblings who never got the chance to enjoy toonami at its best

[ThePr0gram]

goodnight sweet prince



[saar0006]

Was toonam a tv channel?

[TBOT6]

@saar0006 ಠ_ಠ

[techboy1996]

@saar0006 seriously.

[aznfugitives]

I MISS THIS!!! woooow my childhood was amazing because of this :(

[ogichi32]

Only Toonami

[crosshairs13]

This shit brings me back. Fuck I wish I was 12 again sometimes

[G6]

Its almost been 4 years this September since Toonami ended and it feels like just yesterday, I'll never forget Toonami and all the anime it introduced me too and all the Saturday nights, and after school memories that can never be replaced.

[techboy1996]

*wipes tear*

[gcmaster999]

This actually brought a tear to my eye...

[JaredRemstedtVids]

cartoon network died that day. 9/20/2008 never forget.

[Tearorwrist]

( ;~;)

[dbzstar12345]

Happy new year tom

[BlazeNeon1]

Let Give Cartoon Network a Call. And send those letters! 300 North 3rd Street Burbank, CA (818)-729-4000 We can do it toonami faithful.

[LylaDagger]

God, when I heard this I was like...."There joking right? Is it April Fool's day? Is this a re run of an old one? Oh GOOD LORD NOO! NO NOT TOONAMI!! WHY YOU BAST*RDS WHY?" ..and I really said that.. Out loud, and screaming at the TV. With my sister.

R.I.P Good CartoonNetwork..

[Meowcow42]

0:01 "This is the end, beautiful friends.

reference to The Doors

0:25 "Until we meet again"

reference to dragonball GT

0:27 "Stay gold"

reference to the Outsiders

0:33 "Bang."

reference to Cowboy Bebop.

[JackTheWrench]

@Meowcow42 With "bang" it's less a reference, and more Steven Blum sticking it right in our face. "Look," he seems to say. "I participated in the greatest English dub ever. Here's me saying a line that was special at the time, but no longer."

[silentclaw]

@Meowcow42 I got the last reference without help but first three are new to me. Thanks for pointing them out!

[BlazeNeon1]

Building You A Better Cartoon Show....Only Toonami

[BlazeNeon1]

Okay i have another theory. You know those 3 toonami videos i was talking about that CN recently posted well...if you look closely they all have ratings, what IF? There judging whether of not to bring it back by how many views those videos get. What if its a voting pole but there just not announcing it as one. This could actually just the lucky break where looking for. I think we should all watch those videos they posted, get those views up and see what happens.

[BlazeNeon1]

toonami can return if we all work together. CN recently added 3 toonami videos to there website, thats means that its on there radar, they its heavily demanded. Lets and wait and see what they do.

[JazzyXEdward]

@BlazeNeon1 Really? This was recent?

[Yugioh745]

0:10-the rest = :'((

[aDinoSupremacist]

For me Toonami died when they went with this design. But it was redeemed with this final message. Hopefully Toonami will come back someday.

[stupidkid619]

ending toonami was the stupidest thing cartoon network ever did

[Simplepeepee]

the day i wanted to an hero

[davyboy7323]

The first two seasons of Toonami were by far the best! Had all the original shows in it and the old Tom! Didn't realize how much I missed being 8 years old and watching Toonami every chance I could :(

[TheBlackKatana]

I'm still golden Tom.

[BlazeNeon1]

Don't give up toonami faithful, we can still bring toonami back if we all work together. 

[Luigipwnsall12]

Wait, was that the Nostalgia Critic at the end?

[giga530]

Bang..

[ASkinnyWhiteGuy]

My mind cannot comprehend how f**king sad this is...I can't think of anything to say...I feel as though Chowder, Finn, Jake, and every major character from pretty much every current-day CN show is eating my heart piece by piece. God, I miss my childhood...:'(

[EternalSoul175]

@ASkinnyWhiteGuy Adventure Time is actually a good show, though. I've never watched Chowder.

[kittenkatty12]

@ASkinnyWhiteGuy :'(

[TheYugiohgxfan]

Man....i cant believe this is gone. My friends tell me todays cartoon network was awesome thn the old one. They told me adventure time is lik the best. I told them have you guys watched toonami? You guys didnt get to catch the old cn. I would sit on my couch and watch toonami every saturday night. I miss watchin the good anime shows on cartoon network. :(

[armageddonprodutions]

@TheYugiohgxfan I agree

[kittenkatty12]

@TheYugiohgxfan i know how u feel :(... i know where to watch some of the old shows if u wanna know... just tell me whichs ones... well i mostly know the animes...

[kenshinoriginal1]

@kittenkatty12 Dragonball z and not Dragonball kai please tell me were to watch it :D

[kittenkatty12]

@kenshinoriginal1 try eastanime. com or animefreak. com it should be on one of thoses. and i think the movies to dbz r on animefreak. com to

[kenshinoriginal1]

@kittenkatty12 Thankyou very munch :D , Do you know if toonami is going to start again?

[kittenkatty12]

@kenshinoriginal1 i dont know. some people r saying it is some ppl r saying it isnt... but if it does they said it would come back in 2013 or 2014.. if it does i just hope toms there :/.. and your welcome..

[deltasqaud4498]

Isn't this that song that was on off the air animals on adult swim?

[DairuggerXV]

Was Toonami On CN Philippines Gone Forever?

[Stcs94]

Adventure time.....adventure time? U guys are rlly gonna replace toonami with adventure time and other pieces of shit shows? I cant remember one show after u shitheads cancelled the classics (dexters lab johnny bravo etc.) that has lasted more than 4 or 5 seasons thanks assholes thanks for nothing

[zero705]

i cried

[kenshinoriginal1]

@zero705 me too :(

[0LdGrEgg21]

i cry evertime i see this

[BlackarmorO]

I'm less sad for the loss of my childhood and more sad that my future children will never have anything like this

[Masterofaku]

@BlackarmorO You know what I'm with you there.

[TheBlackKatana]

So cartoon shitwork you're telling me what you got playing on Saturday nights is better than this? Please....fuck outta here.

[TheWilderking77]

I think all of us died a little inside when Toonami...died.... ;(

[dlMrINSPECTORlb]

i remember flipping through the channels and stumbled on this scene.... i didnt understand the meaning of it at the time but now i am proud to say i was there at the end

[BMTHdeathnote]

"hopefully we left you with some good memories" oh you have no idea :')

[kingboooo22]

DAMN YOU CN NTEWORK

[DeltaX02]

why must good things like this come to an end? i was shocked at how it was shut down; the younger generations who missed out on this great program have my sympathies...farewell Tom, you will not be forgotten..."Bang" btw...why are people clicking the dislike button? unless of course, it's clicked as in: "We dislike the fact that this great block of history is gone!" disliked, but either way.

[KingVirmire]

Steve Blum is god of voice overs...

[NeloAngelo33]

I freaked out when I found out that Steve Blum did the voice for Tom this whole time.

[JasonXLV1]

*bang*

[RedJoker9000]

I miss toonami but i didn't like this tom i like it with his mask on

[franchised1]

did he just go out like cowboy Bebop O.o

[karasking4862]

Toonami...We all miss you.

[Rwilliams1212]

Stay Golden...

[TehPielightZone]

Toonami: The only place where using a quote from "The Outsiders" is fitting. Both have sad endings. RIP.

[AdventureBegin]

I really believe they will start it again....well i want to believe :/

[ACEOFTHEBLITZ]

TEARRRRR~!~ :')

[BlazeNeon1]

Were Always Gold, The Color Gold Never Fades.

[BlazeNeon1]

On a nice day with a slight over cast, your at home watching tv flipping through the channels, you just so happen to stop on Cartoon Network and you notice the screen is black you wonder "is something wrong with my tv" but as you start to worry stars start to appear amidst the darkness, music of legend slowly fades in passing planets and astroids, the screen zooms out only to show that all that you've seen is a reflection off TOM's visor as the commercial ends. TOM says...Still Gold.

[TheChosenWolf]

@BlazeNeon1 Please tell me this happened!

[TheCODZoneHD]

i remember when Tom started :...(

[ShadowWolfRising]

Over 3 years and yet i am STILL pissed the hell off.

you know what the major reason is........THERES NO ACTION ON TV!

well thats a exageration, but i don't refer to solely anime, theres hardly action of any description on TV other then anime on Adult Swim.

and before you say anything, i mean action being the main focus and not comedy or drama.

now i remember why i liked anime so much, THERE WAS SO MUCH ACTION, so much violence, 1 day a week ain't enough for my action fix.

[WuHoo21]

I love how Tycho's "Cascade" is playing in the background. 

[homevidman1000]

@WuHoo21 thanks for giving the name of the song

[BlazeNeon1]

All Toonami Faithful!!!!!!!!! There are Two petition groups on Facebook called "Petition To Bring Back Toonami" and "If You Want To Bring Toonami Back You Have You Have To Join Trust Me" these petitions numbers are sky rocketing high as the absolution but we could always use more people. Join do that the legendary toonami can return...we can do it if we all work together...still gold ...Only Toonami

[newguy09100]

Those creeps at CN sentenced Tom to death, and so he flew off into the sun to accept his fate... (Bag Pipes)

[OcoryustheBold]

I imagine that Tom is off in some other galaxy airing Toonami to some new generation of alien children.

I want to believe....

[NinjaGottaGun]

we will all miss this wonderful program hope they will bring it back someday goodbye tom we all miss you

[phantom1641]

Fuck the new shows...

[FearlessHQ]

That is so sad.

[Thydeepestfear]

Fucking cried when this ended, and I was 18 hehe

[SonicsniperV7]

Dammit, without Toonami I doubt so many people here would even know what anime was. That's certainly what introduced me to my favorites. Sailor Moon, Ronin Warriors, Gundam Wing, and the Tenchi Muyo series. So long, old friend.

[micah960]

I honestly teared up seeing this.. I forget about toonami and now seeing it around 9 years later it's bringing back so many memorys of when I was a kid. Best childhood tv show ever. But now they have cartoon network... disgrace

[BlazeNeon1]

@dallaswoof1226 awesome

[dallaswoof1226]

Yes I am still gold too so i am going to bring back toonami. So we all sign a petition.

[Raptorcloak]

@dallaswoof1226 Count me in. Besides with Toonami back again, Cartoon Network will be decent enough to look at again.

[arnoldhwang]

I think i remember seeing this farewell on youtube, i wasn't able to watch toonami after a while because they moved the cable channel to another one i couldn't access...So when I saw this, I think I was thinking, "Tom's jumping off, is he committing suicide??"

[BlazeNeon1]

its not over yet...we can still bring it back if we all work together...im still gold...are you? 

[TheFoxxKing]

@BlazeNeon1 Im with you



[MrPrado210]

@BlazeNeon1 Hell yeh i ready anytime.

[WolfsRainInuyasha101]

This ending was just surreal and cosmic ...this farewelll couldnt have been more epic...It just gives you chills of sadnesss but pride that We had the privilege of spacing it with TOM.....this farewelll the vibe it gives and .....u can just feel the greatness of it like none other up there with the legends ....seee you later tom until we meet again ,stay gold .....Bang! T..E..A..R..S.......of nostalgia ...thanx for the memories and morals it has neen a fun and a great journey and soul search !!

[Vido847]

Oh god. It gets me every single time.

[youngstownparanormal]

[SenorFuego01]

[Amana09]

[Spidernite1]

[tnadbzsouthparkfan]

[BlazeNeon1]

All Toonami Faithful!!!!!!!!!

[MrMattManson]

I never had a chance to say goodbye :(

[WAVOone]

this literally was my childhood...<3

[Xxkiller914]

=( whyyyy

[1ZombieRob]

Glad i saw this live, even after i stopped watching toonami

i was there at the beginning, glad i was there at the end.

[bionicle160]

SWALLOW SADNESS...like a boss

[SantoryuWazamono]

@bionicle160 like an assistant

[dkmax32]

:'( u will be missed

[MakoRuu]

I MISS YOU TOM!!!

[beutuful07]

IM LITERALLY CRYING OVER HERE!!!!!!!!!! why did they cancelled this was by far the best show cartoon network had and it gone man i HATE MY LIFE!!!!!!

[vbabe360]

I can't believe they did away with such an amazing segment. What's up with this dumb shit on Cartoon Network like that epic fail of a game show that rips off the old Nickelodeon game shows?

[TheSparky777]

I cried T_T

[IzunaDropJusticeX2]

Todays Cartoon Network programs are just plain unwatchable.

And also, THE REAL FOLK BLUES!

[OcoryustheBold]

You just had to throw that bang in there at the end didn't you

Damn....

[offbeatninja123]

i just cried man...

[Necropedocoprophilia]

THE FUCKING BANG AT THE END. GOD DAMN.

[DansEditorials]

Epic doors reference!

[DansEditorials]

@musoshi Steve Blum aka tank Dempsey.

[DansEditorials]

Tank Dempsey from killing zombies to flying in space.

[DJCrystalClear]

Think it is possible for Toonami to return, Nickelodeon did bring back the 90's program block back on their channel thanks to the support 90's nick fans.. Surely the same could happen with Toonami...??

[jayngfet0]

@DJCrystalClear We'd need to get rid of the executives that did in toonami first.

[applejax89]

I almost cried there, but I didn't. Cuz Tom wouldn't want me too. But Cartoon Network would!!! D:<

[rnorred1986]

It was my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary that day. I miss Toonami. :(

[Toxward]

As if it wasn't sad enough, they close with a god damn Tycho song. Like... no mercy? Really?

[jeffpik2612]

Feels bad man

[RasecVonWizzlbang]

See you, Space Cowboy...

[TheJeffYo]

I remember I would always get excited every time we would go cross the border for an overnight stay in the States. Reason? I get to see Tom.

[alteronis58]

Amazing memories. Total chills when he said "bang".

[musoshi]

I can't remember the voice actors name but he does a great job for Tom and all the anime he does voices for.

[DrKelleyBear]

memories are all that's left...

[EuphanasiaCEO]

wow i just cried , thank god i was born in 1991.

[OmgVk64]

GOOD NEWS: TOONAMI HAS RETURNED AS NEOTOONAMI! :)

Really what the hell! I grew up on CN toonami! I remember when cartoon network was in black and white boxes and had a car drive off a bridge or cliff or whatever. They seriously screwed up CN. It has real people on it now! Really? REALLY?! Now its not even cartoon network, its just a giant freaking weed and acid trip of a channel! >:P Screw You CN you destroyed the best thing you had going for you.
