I disagree. its true they lost some fans, but Toonami is actually doing quite good. I would love for all that stuff to happen, but it won't because they're ot going to cater to just the fans that want what we want. They want to please the masses. We are not the masses. We just have better taste than the masses. Flat out and simple: Toonami currently stinks, according to us, but they're not making it any better for people like us.
Come on
Even the little kids are getting tired of the current crap that is on there. Are they considered "masses"? I don't see why they shouldn't be. And if toonami stops catering to us then they will lose us, the hardcore fans. And the little ones will stop watching and tonnami goes down. So they must cater to us if they want to keep themselves alive. _________________ Mission:Accepted

Untrue. We used to be the kids, remember? Obviously tastes change. The kiddies are not getting sick of it. They are eating it up. And they are the masses. Remember that CN is still primarily a kid's network.
As I said before, I want to eat, but the good of the many outweighs the good of the few. _________________ LOVE & PEACE!

As u say,tastes change, and soon the "masses" are gonna want something new to chew on so then toonami will be screwed to try to find something to fit the style. That is when they might change back to the good stuff that i remember as a kid.
If the kids like the stuff on today then they will kill to see the good stuff. _________________ Mission:Accepted

Ok. I do agree with that. The taste of the masses witll change, as they always do. But thats not neccesarily the time when then good stuff WILL come in. Thats the time where there's an oppurtunity for the good stuff to come in. Not only will it please old fans, but it will please the kiddies too. If they will so wowed by the idiotic crap Toonami was airing before, they will be absolutely blown away by the shows we know and love. I hope Toonami takes this chance to get back old fans and seriously impress new ones. _________________ LOVE & PEACE!

I have to say that Toonami has shifted to the wayside of a more childish audience...I can only watch YYH and DBZ for so long...and besides that...IT'S EDITED...so they take all the good stuff out of the series...even adult swim edites shows which is even more sad...for those of you that haven't already done so...either watch TechTV or Action channel...they actually show anime that's worth watching (i.e. Hellsing, The Soul Taker, etc.)...

Agreed. I buy just about anything that I want to see. Except its not often because I don't get much money. AND I HAVE TO SQUANDER TO BUY BREAD TO FEED MYSELF! Just kidding. But editing=not fun.
And just an example of the stupidity of editing, in YYH, when Yusuke is fighting that guy in the dark who has the mask on (I forget his name) when hes trying to track down Rando, they left out a very crucial part. The only reason Yusuke won is because he used Genkai's disgarded cigarette to find his opponent so he could fire his Spirit Gun at him. When it aired on Toonami, they completely cut that out, which left Yusuke saying "yeah, that might work" and then he fired his Spirit Gun and him. No explanation whatsoever. Pure stupidity. I mean, comon, I think the kids can handle a cigarette or two! Thats just another example of Toonami's shiftance from a general appealance to a children's appealance. _________________ LOVE & PEACE!

Smoking's not allowed and never has been, so it had to go.

I am sorry. Again. But I beleive there were Toonami shows that had smoking in them. As stupid as this sounds, I would have been satisfied if in that YYH scenario they put in the smoking and had Yusuke say "smokings bad for you, Grandma" or something like that. That might justify it. A little. Mabye not. Forgive me as I am almost completely incapable of having my own opinions. _________________ LOVE & PEACE!

Oh, the drama...
Believe what you want, just don't expect me to agree with you all the time. But characters that promote smoking, even indirectly, are something that cannot be expected to be allowed in cartoons aimed at the 6-11 and younger audience. Not in this day and age. _________________ "When I became a man, I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."- C.S. Lewis
