Adult Swim's April Fools Day 2012 celebration

SM Scorx · 04-01-2012

Last night, Cartoon Network's Adult Swim block seemed it was following its tradition of like showing the movie "The Room" all night, but instead it had a faux Toonami block with Tom 3.0 (voiced by Steve Blum even)!

Several classic shows were aired from the original lineup, with a special focus on climactic episodes, season finales or final episodes. The shows, order aired, and episodes: Dragon Ball Z #191, Gundam Wing #10, Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki #19, Outlaw Star #25, Big O #1, Yu Yu Hakusho #110, Blue Submarine #6 #1, Trigun #23, the original Astro Boy #1, and Gigantor #1. Tom also did a brand new bumper for the new episode of Bleach, plus a next episode preview. Some of the episodes shown were never broadcast on the original Toonami.

There was an original game review of Mass Effect 3, giving the game an 8.5/10 while criticizing the ending for being "weak." Also done were original advertisements for DVDs of each of the animes shown.

Even if it was a joke, it was glorious!

Even if it was a joke, but Toonami was back for 1 night.
Ugh! I wish I knew! I would have watched it all!
