Please be two episodes a week, please be two episodes a week...

Also, correction: 2007-2009? Toonami was dead in 2008. 2005-2007 was when it actually aired.

Toonami has come a LONG way this year.

Now we have the 3 most popular shounen in the world on one block. Soul Eater. A new TOM. Evangelion 1.11. Wow. This is basically a goldmine for Toonami.

I wouldn't be surprised if AS execs decide to give Saturday all to Toonami, giving them 9pm-3am, after ratings spike significantly. If that happens, ratings spike even more significantly!!

Not another endless piece of shounen garbage. They're killing Adult Swim with this crap. Bleach and Naruto were bad enough.

One Piece? REALLY?! First it was Bleach, then Naruto, now this?! I'm done. Toonami needs to learn that the big 3 is going to keep veteran fans away. The big 3 are NOT the key to making this last, and about the only long running anime that should be there is Fairy Tail, but FUNimation is too lazy to make more. They need more shows like Deadman Wonderland. If they want honest views, drop Naruto, Bleach, and don't air One Piece.

Now this is the Toonami I used to know. Finally, more anime and to boot a series that hasn't aired on television uncut in a long time as well.

Right? They need to drop them and bring more 12 episode series and 24-26 episode series. They are just going to kill it like they did before.

When I first heard this news I nearly jumped up and down until I forgot something. I wonder if they're gonna start from the beginning or start where they left off at Eneru? I'm hoping they start off at Eneru because i'd be sad to to have to see it all over again. I just hate that right now after Eneru the series gets at a boring part.

Either way I'm glad to see One Piece back. I don't care if it comes on at 12:00 or 3:00 I'm staying up to watch it when it premieres. One Piece needs more publicity here in the states.
