Either way the Toonami Renaissance is still on, and everyone is getting the word out to #bringbacktoonami on twitter.

I really sincerely hope they do bring it back. I'm positive it would do wonders for CN's ratings as well. But yes, the Toonami Renaissance is in full swing!

Dollow I hope your right, having Toonami back would be a gift from the heavens indeed. To relive the good ol'days of cartoon network would be grand.

It was funny to see the cake wasn't a lie, but yea this just seems too nostalgia driven.

Plus re-watching Wing and those other shows has to get boring eventually since Wing and some of the others have an actual End and don't last like 100+ episodes....

Re: Toonami is back... was it a one night stand?

Like I've said, I want the block back with NEW shows and stuff, I would be lying if I said some nostalgia was not involved, but at the same time it wasn't nostalgia as the mood of how they present the shows was still there. I want Toonami to not just be a retro block, but have new shows too, not Bandai like Wing as I like it but Bandai USA is dead, so stuff like One Piece or Fairy Tale and things like that or some Sentai filmworks stuff.

I'm just glad that they were actually serious and weren't just trolling the fanbase.

If nothing else, I'm sure BEI would be happy to get on air promotion for all those Anime Legends sets before their licenses run out. Even if it just airs shows that ran back in the day, that's still attention for companies older licenses.
