New Toonami Line-up?

[Wolfwood]

Anyone know what will be coming to Toonami in September? I know Yu Yu Hakusho is saying bye-bye, along with Justice League, and Cyborg 009. That leaves DBZ still alive and 3 time slots to fill. I know Immortal GPX and SD Gundam are coming to Toonami in September, that makes three known shows in the line-up. Any idea what the fourth show will be?

[Wolfwood]

well, looks like DB is back on Toonami and starting back up where it left off with the death of Kuririn and the introduction of King Piccolo. I guess Cyborg 009 will finish out its run in a week or so, then bow to Immortal Grand Prix. Anyone know what the Hell IGPX and SD Gundam are about? I heard this SD Gundam isn't done by the Japanese, but by America. I wonder when SEED will be on Toonami...

i hear that igpx is only going to be 5 minutes a episode

As I posted in another message board, here is what IGPX is about.

If any of you have seen commercials on Cartoon Network about a "IGPX", this is what it is.

Given that it had "IG" in it, I could've only guessed that Production I.G. (the creators behind FLCL, Blood, and Ghost in the Shell, etc.) had to be involved.

IGPX is pretty much a special event that will go on for a week on the Toonami block. Similar to Toonami's other events in the past years over the summers and such (Lockdown, etc.).

It will air the week of September 15th. And yes, IGPX is a little mini series type thing. 5 minute episodes each day.

So in other words, in a nutshell, IGPX is a little mini series that Production I.G. and Cartoon Network worked on and to celebrate their release, Toonami will be airing the mini series aswell as make it a one-week event.

Here is the story:
It is the year 2035. Team Suzaku and Team Sledge Mamma are preparing to meet in the final round of the 12th Immortal Grand Prix (IGPX). Takeshi leads Team Suzaku, which is made-up of a group of young amateur pilots who must make the most of their limited funds and weaponry in order to prepare for the competition designed for professionals. Team Sledge Mamma consists of three professional, cybernetic opponents who are known to be merciless and have remained undefeated throughout this year's competition.

Each IGPX battle matches two teams with 3 Mechs, high tech fighting machines. Utilizing any form of weaponry within the regulated weight limit, the pilots of these fighting machines must defeat all of the Mechs belonging to the opposition. The pilots are protected from injury during battle in a Hide Shell. Once a Mech is significantly damaged during competition, the Hide Shell is ejected. After achieving 12 victories in previous rounds, two teams advance to the championship competition.

Sounds a bit like Zoids to me.. but.. oh well. I don't even watch Toonami.

I read somewhere that Witch Hunter Robin & Wolf's Rain would be coming to Cartoon Network sometime next year.

[Bap]

you know that would be awesome....I've always wanted to see WHR but can't get any downloads for (it would be great if anyone new where to get some)..and Wolfs Rain...what a great anime....i wish the last 4 eps would come out already! they are prolly gonna be OVAs and make people buy them...

[griffinstafford]

Hmmmm, I've tried to find WHR also, I have the series on VCD's but the last few seconds of the last episode are missing.. not that it ruins the story, but it would be nice to see it all.
It's a great series by the way I recommend it to everyone.
Supernova.org did have it for awile but it's gone now.
As far as the last few ep's of Wolf's Rain... I understand they will be released with the DVD's so it'll be awhile... I knew after seeing episde 26 that it wasn't really over.

[temjinxzarron]

I herd that wolf's rain would be aring sometime this Spring.

[Jiraiya_sama]

Cartoon network should go ahead a create a seperate channel for animes and adultswim, so the viewers can have a real adultswim :twisted:

[temjinxzarron]

A Adult Swim channel. Well if ADV can have their own channel then why not adult swim.

[Gmex]

yeah separate channels that be cool

[SynFcuk]

yep... therefore we can watch better anime in the daytime too besides all late night

[temjinxzarron]

Mabye someone should start a petition to send to adult swim for there own channel.

[SynFcuk]

they'll probably make it public and ask the audience with a poll on the main site

[Gmex]

they'll probably make it public and ask the audience with a poll on the main site
and thats just how its probally gonna be if they did

[SynFcuk]

how about a poll on CN for which anime to take out perminately?

[Gmex]

baaaad idea

[SynFcuk]

there's a time when some anime's don't go anywhere and all you see is Re-runs 0_o

[Gmex]

wwhhaattt? :wink:

[temjinxzarron]

how about a poll on CN for which anime to take out perminately?

If they ever took out anime from CN the ratings would drop really fast.

[SynFcuk]

[saiyanslayer]

[Gmex]

[temjinxzarron]

Yea but i shure that most of us watched the Adult Swim block only. If they were to cut the Adult Swim block. CN would lose some serious vewers.

[SynFcuk]

how old is the Anime part of Adult swimm anyway?

[Gmex]

about a year i think

[SynFcuk]

i would have never heard of Inu-yasha if it wasn't for Adult Swim

[temjinxzarron]

I think it was a few years back. Ever since Adult swim started with Cowboy Bebop. Actually thats how i discovered bebop in the first place.

[SynFcuk]

actually the first time that i ever heard of Cowboy Bebop was from one of the Gundam Wing VHS.. with one of its trailers

[temjinxzarron]

since you said VHS that had to be a looooooooong time ago.

[Gmex]

gundam wings been around for a while hasnt it

[SynFcuk]

nahh.. gundam wing haven't been around... just watched endless waltz not too long ago..

still a great movie :wink:

[temjinxzarron]

Some of the old gundam series really confuse :? me in a way

[SynFcuk]

anime is great... but the video games SUXXX

[temjinxzarron]

The first gundam game i ever played was a demo no the Dreamcast. It was a horrable game. :x

[SynFcuk]

there's a new gundam game for ps2... haven't brought it or rented..... waiting for one of my friends to finally give in and rent/buy it so we can see how it really is :lol:

[temjinxzarron]

The only gundam game that i gave a little respect to was gundam battle assult 2 for the playstation.

[SynFcuk]

yea.. even though it's kinda like a street fighter.. it's pretty hott..

[temjinxzarron]

i just didn't like the way you had to side step

[wassup2091]

the gundam game for ps2 is horrible, i mean it is bearable for awhile but in the end it = sux0rz

[SynFcuk]

the gundam game for ps2 is horrible, i mean it is bearable for awhile but in the end it = sux0rz

yup... none of the gundam video games passed with a -5 out of 10 for me :?

[temjinxzarron]

Speaking of game-anime. Did you know that theres a Mahoromatic, Chobits and Lupin 3.

[SynFcuk]

[temjinxzarron]

Yea i think Mahoromatic, and Chobits are on the Ps2. the Lupin 3 game is on the Gamecube. I also found out that theres a Rahxephon game for the Ps2.

[W R X]

[SynFcuk]

[wassup2091]

[SynFcuk]

WAIT A MINUTE! Chobits game! How would it be playable? What is it like: Train Chii today or something?

that's like some time consuming game like the SIMs... god.. hate that game

my mom actually play that game.. and always take up at least an hour or two of my time from MY computer! :?

[wassup2091]

i hate the sims, the only time i ever play it is to make people drown or die in a fire

[SynFcuk]

i only played simcity.. the FIRST game that they've made... the ORIGNAL

[wassup2091]

sim city was good, and sim tower was pretty fun
