I actually submitted this earlier and Dubois rejected it saying it wasn't newsworthy enough to get its own thread. :/ Anywho, looking forward to this. Especially Akira, as I haven't seen it. I think FMA: Conqueror of Shamballa was an odd choice considering its the end of the original FMA rather than Brotherhood, what Toonami's been airing. |

Half of Akira would've been cut for broadcast. Even then, you'd probably be better-off watching a hard copy just so you don't have commercial breaks interrupting an already-hard-to-follow movie. |

I guess this is good news, I'd like to see Akira and Badlands Rumble again. Toonami should try to find a show that isn't already massively popular, otherwise I don't really see the point. |

Wind_Sr said: December 7th: "Akira" Only seen if once and I don't remember much so I'll watch. Wind_Sr said: December 14th: "Summer Wars" KOI KOI! Odd time to broadcast this though. Wind_Sr said: December 21st: "Fullmetal Alchemist: The Conqueror of Shamballa" Always down for FMA goodness. Wind_Sr said: December 28th: "Trigun: Badlands Rumble" Will watch since I haven't seen the dubbed version of it. j0x said: the only problem i have is why they did not show the latest Full Metal Alchemist movie instead. Oh well, I like the Wrath vs Gluttony fight in this one anyway. |

Damn, those are some nice movies they're showing. Haven't seen any of them either. MellowJello said: People still watch Toonami? Kids these days. For me, it's all about the nostalgia. If it weren't for Toonami, I likely wouldn't be posting in this thread right now. |

It won't be heavily censored thankfully (it being on Adult Swim now and all) and I'll get to watch it with other people and post about it as it airs. It'll be fun. |

I still have not seen Akira. May decide to watch it. Glad they're finally airing Conqueror of Shamballa. If by chance some fans of the old series still haven't discovered the Internet, they'll finally get to see the real conclusion to the series. |

I wonder how that's going to effect the other shows. Not Bleach, Naruto, or One Piece. I really hope they move Soul Eater around to keep it going, I can't wait a whole month without new episodes of that. FLCL will be done by then and who cares about Star War Clone Wars, so maybe they'll just move Soul Eater and SAO back a half an hour or hour to accommodate the movies. |

Will watch Akira since I have an intrest on trying it out since it is quite different. Might watch Summer Wars, but I don't know it quite fits to be on there. not watching fma movie. Can't watch trigun since I haven't watch trigun tv show before. Finally this will step up from a lack of good shows to watch other than popular shows or seen it bunch of times. End of 2013-2014 will do a excellent job if this countiunes from going forward. Keep it going. |

Now I think about it, you're right on Summer Wars fits there since it has sci-fi on there. I have to think about if I want to watch this since first I don't to watch this, but the synopsis is kinda intresting. |

Glad Toonami is getting their groove back, but when are they going to air Inuyasha: The Final Act? Instead of all these anime that Adult Swim aired years ago. (Old Inuyasha, Naruto, One Piece, FLCL etc). I want to see new anime on there. And I don't like getting up at 5-6 just to watch some old Inuyasha Lol but I do it anyways. |

It's funny because they're all under Funi's distributions, which is how Toonami is able to present these in the future. DarkAngelz said: Are these going to be dubbed? :/ ... they were all dubbed years before. The Blu-ray/DVD releases of these films from Funi have both original and dubbed. ... and I don't recall Toonami presenting content in its original language (not saying that Toonami presenting Anime dubbed is a bad thing, but it's been like this since the beginning.) |

I was 95% sure it would be dub... and because I prefer sub, there was a :/ at the end. Just checking. Also, I heard somewhere that OP won't be showing during December... which leads me to believe that it's because of those movies... Whether this is true or not: Anyone know the schedule? What shows will air when, and what time slots the movies will take up? Mod Edit: double post merged. |

I'll definitely be tuning in to watch Conquerer of Shamballa because I have yet to see it, along with Akira and Summer Wars. |

If I had to guess. Bleach, One Piece, Soul Eater and Sword Art Online will still air. Since Naruto will end on Nov 30. Not sure what will replace its time slot since Shippuden starts in January with Space Dandy. But at 3am is when they will air the movie that week. |
