The Mass Effect review has me in hopes. They actually made new content.

[up][up] Not to mention that the episode of Bleach aired had new lines recorded for TOM. Like I said, most elaborate April Fools joke ever.

This has made me think... Has anybody witnessed a non-prank being pulled off well? (A non-prank being when a prank is entirely expected, but the prank turns out to be that there was no prank in the first place.)

[up]Who knows? Nick brought back a nostalgic thing.

Realistically speaking, a new Toonami could be like 2 hours of nostalgic programming, with like an hour of new programming.

But yeah, this is a gift, from my perspective, so enjoy it and don't bitch about it.

There is a small sliver of hope that the ratings for adult Swim just skyrocketed and one of the morons from CN notices and goes "Huh...maybe we should bring Toonami back."

Can't say I was surprised. It's a shame that while the network is well aware of the draw of the block by nostalgia factor alone, they won't bother to revive it full-time by nothing short of a miracle.

Welp, we'd better enjoy this while it lasts.

I don't even care that it's for only a day. This is many of our childhoods playing right now.

I was never able to watch Toonami much when it aired due to no cable, but my cousin had it. I remember holing up in the upstairs room watching it and asking questions about Dragon Ball Z and Yu Yu Hakusho (I remember seeing the end of the Garlic Jr. saga in the former and an episode with this guy made of rocks who the red-haired guy beat with a rose in the latter). Even though I didn't watch it much, it still got me interested in anime and I remember what little I saw of it fondly. Even if lil' me didn't like the shows much, i really liked the commercials and TOM ending bumps ^^

EDIT: Lol, typed Toomani.

Haha, I never really watched Tenchi Muyo when it was on, struck me as weird show. For some reason the main guy sounds like Kensouke from NGE to me.
