Peter Fernandez was one of the voices. That'd explain a lot.

Well, that's all, folks. And now, it's time to hit the hay.

I have to wonder/hope that he's subtly encouraging people to ask for more.

Well that was a thing; lets see what happens next.

WHAT?! It's been nearly a decade since I saw Toonami, and I lost my cable months before [as] decides to air it at least one more time?! The inner kid in me is going berserk with joy and rage!

Damn CN, they made this joke too perfect, and I didn't get to see it again sad.

So just to check, you aren't all in on the joke right? This actually happened? Hey, a joke thread that goes on for pages and is Oddly Specific - not impossible.

Sadly I'm only able to work up enthusiasm about this based on the off-chance that something like this will drum up anime interest in general.

From what I saw, it was very much like a Toonami block of the old days (albeit with anime like Bleach and Trigun and edgier remarks from TOM.) It's a prank in the sense that none of us will ever see it again.

Was... was this the real life?

I'm still hyped up from that. That was an amazingly elaborate and awesome stunt, and I think the reason they went all out was because it was recently Toonami's 15th Anniversary as well.

And man, those Yu Yu Hakusho Blu-ray discs must be gorgeous.

Well, now I must sleep.

I'm glad this happened but I know this is more likely an advertising stunt to sell all those old school dvds. Yet, I'm fine with it.

Darn, I missed this. :(

Still, it would be awesome if they fully revived the block if this becomes popular. In any case, welcome back Toonami, even if it was only for one knight. ;_;

Damn, they aired THAT episode of Trigun... T.T

BEST DEATH SCENE EVER

They should have Jonny Young Bosch redub his lines now that he is a more experienced & confident Voice Actor

Also, who did chapels voice? He sounds so familiar.

Plus Big O ep 1 is the BEST!!! (Though Beck, Norman & Daston sound completely different)

This night was such a treat! Though I missed durarara & Inuyasha (I'm DV Ding them)

also, the fish girl from Blue Sub 6 was cute.

gotta love the corny dub names in astro boy & gigantor (human astro boy, his crazy dad) "in the far off year of 2000 a boy is driven by his car at SUPER sonic speeds" CRASH!!!

though the F-104s in Gigantor looked pretty real

Enjoyed the prank/tribute, though I'm wondering if, when they go back to their regular schedule next week, they'll continue Fullmetal Alchemist and Durarara where they left off or just skip over the episodes that would've run this week; I missed those eps when they originally aired, so if they skip them now I's gonna be pissed.
