Kodoani.com – Program Toonami Rewind of Adult Swim will officially end at the end of the year, according to an announcement from Toonami on Thursday. However, the main Toonami, which airs on Saturday nights, will continue as usual. On the official Facebook page, Toonami thanked the audience for supporting Toonami Rewind, affirming that Saturday Night Toonami “won't go anywhere” and encouraging the audience to continue watching.
Toonami Rewindstarting from day May 31 This year, it is designed as a retrospective program, replaying the classic anime series that made Toonami famous. Toonami Rewind Friday screenings include familiar titles such as Sailor Moon (new English dubbed version by Viz Media), Dragon Ball Z Kai (a shortened version of the Dragon Ball Z series from 1989-1996) and Naruto. This is an effort to give fans a chance to reminisce and re-experience memorable moments in Toonami's broadcasting history.
Programme Toonami began on Cartoon Network in 1997 and ran for 11 years before ending in 2008. By May 2012, Toonami was revived on Adult Swim and quickly regained traction, continuing to air regularly into Saturday night. This return was partly due to the positive response from audiences when Cartoon Network held a special Toonami event on April Fool's Day 2012, featuring reruns of classic anime series such as Dragon Ball Z, Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, Tenchi Muyo!, Outlaw Star, Blue Submarine No. 6and Trigun. The event even included newly produced videos featuring the mascot TOM by Toonami, further highlighting the nostalgic and attached spirit of fans.
Even though Toonami Rewind is coming to an end, the main Toonami show remains an integral part of Adult Swim's programming schedule, delivering new anime and favorites on Saturday nights. The message from Toonami is a promise that the show will continue to maintain its form, accompanying the audience on the journey to discover the world of anime and animation.
