My Little Toonami intro

by Tekaramity

Just...just watch this. If you don't have a nostalgic attack, rewind time, be born earlier, and enjoy.
Embed after the break! (Also, I have no realistic idea why I'm being allowed to post this.)

You guys know that there's a small movement to bring back Toonami in some form on the internet, right? No?

Here, take a look: http://www.neotoonami.com/forums/index.php

These guys are the farthest along of anyone I've seen in such an endeavor. Their new TOM designs and animations rock. And they're really rebuilding it from the ground up, with content decisions and scheduling and everything else involved. You don't have to participate in the forums, but its at least worth bookmarking.

As for the vid and the pic... WIN, SO MUCH WIN, in this brony's opinion. Mad props to the brony that made this.

I would say the narrator's voice is a bit hard on the ears, but TOM's voice is near spot-on.

Tekaramity pops in and out every so often...he's a bit of a drifter, like Jingle from Hamtaro (which this Toonami spot was originally used for).

Note to anybody who wishes MLP:FiM was around back in the day: Lauren Faust was busy working on PPG and being married to/learning from Craig McCracken.
Come to think about it, how many shows in The Hub's lineup first aired on Cartoon Network back in the day? Well maybe Batman and such were on Kids WB first, but still.

Tekaramity prefers to work behind the scenes of the website; but he'll pop up now and then. You're not alone dude, I'm sure some of us stick around the website to know what's going on.

Anyway, watching that thing was pretty cool; even if I don't know much about Toonami. It seemed a lot better than recent things in today's TV world. Man, a lot of comments were posted for the last 45 minutes of it's posting. A lot of people definitely remembered this.

Ah, Toonami, where it began all those years ago.

This got my inner child exited in remembering how awesome DBZ was back then.

Then my rational piped up at how I reread the dragonball manga a year ago, and it was just a soap opera with giant monkeys.

Then rational locked up inner child back in his cage until the next time he needs to come out.

Estimating 11 days before that happens again.

My soul has forever ingrained into it a glowing shard of tooonami. Although it's dimmed to a low shimmer of incomplete and blurred memory, still it refuses to sink into the dark and unrecognizable void that holds my forgotten. I shall hold it with all strength until my mind can once more physically grasp it in the present. Upon that day, I will no longer need to hold it against the gravity of lost memories, as the shard will have transmogrified into a body that can sustain itself within me.

As each day progresses, the 90's become just one more full rotation of the Earth farther away, a melancholy twenty-five thousand miles more distant from me. I not only miss Toonami (but my God do I miss Toonami), but also Kids WB. And Fox Kids. Even the Nicktoons lineup was rock solid back then with Rocko's Modern Life, Angry Beavers and Hey Arnold!.

If there's one thing MLP:FiM brings to me, it's hope. Hope that it brings enough attention to The Hub, and that The Hub can bring even more original programming into their lineup that further pushes the envelope of animated entertainment like Toonami, Nick, Fox, and the WB did over a decade ago...

Heck, 41 here and I loved Toonami, it made watching TV fun... then it died *cries*

@CrayolaBrony
The CG is ok, little primitive, but it works. I'm going to have to keep an eye on this one!

I never had Cartoon Network as a kid (and still don't, stupid poverty) but I remember the few times I could watch it, I would never change the channel. Though I think we may have had a different version to what the Americans had.

Toonami was on while I was in late middle school and high school. By then I was more likely to be watching Quantum Leap after school and Star Trek Voyager (and towards the end of my stay, Star Trek Enterprise) with my mom in the evenings.

Childhood? I was watching DBZ on toonami in my 20's. What brings back memories of my childhood is watching the 13 english dubbed episodes of Dragon Warrior (originally called Dragon Quest: Legend of the hero Abel in Japan). Now I feel the need to do a pony crossover... maybe it will work and satisfy my need to go beyond level 13. Yes! this is good!

The best part is, Toonami might have actually aired this show. If they were willing to take Powerpuff Girls and Hamtaro, FiM wouldn't have been much of a stretch.

@Fractured
Heck yes I do! Just like how I remember Space Ghost Coast to Coast was the greatest thing EVER!

I didn't have a nostalgia attack because I was born too early for Toonami.

Oh well.

I would have more nostalgia if it wasn't the later Toonami,when it was already falling apart.
The older style of animation was better, in my opinion

OH GOD I thought about how awesome Toonami+Ponies would be! Definitely two fated souls separated by the decades.

I think the last time I watched was around the time they showed Blue Submarine No.9 and Gundam Wing, but I remember Big-O, Tenchi, Outlaw Star, Sailor Moon... hell, even old-school ThunderCats! What made it all stand out was the attitude in which they were presented; even the intro to something like Hamtaro (which is the part of TOMs dialog used in this video) was delivered as if it were the most bad ass thing ever.

I have to say that i feel that that was real almost. I probably would have loved to have seen that when i was 10 years old back then. A lot of nostalgia ill tell yah. But who knows depedning on how long MLP Lasts...maybe one day well see something of this calibur come about.

Ponies are pretty badass so theyd fit right in in my book.
