Since Adult Swim is keeping the new Toonami line-up a secret.. here’s what I’d possibly have included, if it were up to me:
Note: This is not a list of my most favorite anime, but just shows that I can imagine people would enjoy on Toonami.. a mix of old and new shows
- Pokemon
Bringing back the original series would be a cool addition to Toonami. Who wouldn’t mind seeing Ash, Misty, Brock, and the 150 pokemon we knew when we were young?
Inuyasha was aired on Adult swim for awhile, heck, random previously aired episodes were still showing like 5am or 6am on Saturday not too long ago, but the series wasn’t finished here in the US. Around late 2009- 2010, Japan began airing the anime to the final parts of Inuyasha after the manga finished publishing in 2008. It’d be nice to see it completed on the network.
Very funny show, but I don’t know how they’d get away with some things.. not to mention, its a short series (12 episodes running for about 13 minutes per episode)
This is different from what you’d usually see from the “magical girl” genre and for that its amazing and refreshing. The artwork and character design is “cutesy-looking”, but the story gets surprisingly dark.
- Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt
Adult Swim already tweeted how this show is being considered. Personally I didn’t like the first 5 episodes, but around the 6th episode, it became worth watching. I ended up enjoying it and it’d be cool to see this dubbed. Another plus to this show is the music, its kind of cool.
- Salormoon or Dragonball
Both shows were classics on Toonami. Either one, I think people will be pleased. I’m leaning towards sailormoon though.
Others to mention:
I’m not sure if they’d get away with showing this, but its funny as hell
Its already on Adult Swim, but FMA: Brotherhood is great and deserves to stay on the Network.. even though you can watch it on Netflix or Hulu.. actually, ALOT of anime can be found on those sites…
Some say NGE is boring or depressing, others think its brilliant (I am one of those people.)
- K-On!
I really want to hear the songs they sing in English, though I love the Japanese voice actors, especially Hikasa Yoko because of her singing. Also, the show was quite successful in Japan so it’d probably be be good here.
I’m not caught up this all the episodes yet, the last one I saw was 53 and theres been about 130+ episode released in Japan already.. but others on the internet have already been suggesting that this be shown on Toonami. I guess I wouldn’t mind too much if it does get a timeslot in the new line-up.
- I have not finished Steins;Gate, Star Driver, Baccano!, Beck or Xam’d yet for some reason I think they’d do well on Toonami.
Other Random Mentions : School Rumble , Kaiba , Samurai Pizza Cats (HA! :P), Toradora!, Saki, Cross Game
