The greatest thing to ever happen to TV in my life time has come to an end after 11 years. When i first heard that Cartoon Network canceled Toonami i felt like a javeline had just gone straight into my chest. Toonami is what introduced me to anime in the first place and it was probably the most entertaining part of my childhood. It became a routine, i would go home watch Toonami for a couple hours then go on with my life. I mean my sole entertainment was Yu Yu Hakusho and DBZ for a long time. Toonami was like my retreat from the real world where i could just sit and relax and have no worries.
Sure some of you may say i was a little obsessed, which i was, but it was fun.
I may not have watched it much for a while. But it still holds a special place in my memories, no action block on TV can ever replace the greatness Toonami once had. Sure it started to go downhill in recent years but it was just about the only way for people to watch dubbed anime, short of buying it, for the longest time i can remember.
This is where i pay my respects to something that shaped my interests for the past 11 years.

I remember back in the day, before Adult Swim came on, they had a late night version of Toonami called the Midnight Run. Which was perfect for me coming home from work very night and getting to un-whined watching DBZ and Gundam Wing.

The new Toonami was terrible, but the old one was my retreat for Saturdays. Yu Yu Hakusho was my gateway anime and Toonami was the TV block that introduced it to me as well as other great series like Ruroni Kenshin.
