Why not Knights of Sidonia, Code Geass or Steins Gate anyone of these sound better then Gurren Lagann in my opinion.

TTGL sounds more like a show that'd fit Adult Swim.

MoeSavage I guess you're right but at least they didn't put Kill La Kill on Toonami. Just the thought of it makes me die a bit inside.

If I understand correctly, it's taking the place of Blue Exorcist since both are Aniplex titles.

What I want to know is what are they going to do with episode 6? Are they going to air the censored one that is mostly a recap episode? Or the normal one? And will they air the HD tapes?

I imagine they might air the regular episode considering that they've said that they'll be showing Dbz Kai uncut so what's stopping them from showing the regular episode?

I think it's fucking awful, that is my opinion. I really hate insulting someone by age, I seriously do, but you sound like a retarded 12 year old, not everyone has to like a show. As someone who supports Toonami by at least keeping my TV on during Saturday nights I find it unfortunate that this is part of the lineup.

Pretty sure Code Geass already did air on Adult Swim in the past.

They can probably get away with airing the uncensored one, but that probably has more to do with if they ever even dubbed that episode, toonami just replaces the adult swim block so censorship isnt really a thing aside from nudity and the F bomb

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

It's good to see Toonami is doing well again.

And hell, it's been a while since I watched TTGL, might as well rewatch it with dubs.

Code Geass did show on adultswim for like 4 years. Toonami and Adultswim are both apart of same channel (Cartoon Network) . I don't understand why a lot of people think it's a separate channel. Knights of Sidonia art is an acquired taste, (I just put up with it but lets be honest it's not very good) a lot of people would not like it. They mostly show battle/action anime so Stein Gate would be out of the picture.
