Far-flung fantasy, I know, but I sure hope Toonami takes a look at Log Horizon and says "That looks like SAO, we'll air that" and unwittingly airs one of the more enjoyable anime I've watched so far in life.

This shit is rad

/edit the best bit is that the main character has basically stood around talking or in the background for like four episodes now and is STILL probably the most badass person on the show. That takes guts

so it has now been explained to me that the likely reason for restarting Naruto is because they've already paid for those first 52 episodes and that's all they can actually afford at the moment, because let's be honest that's literally the only thing that makes actual sense. this is a thought that probably would have occurred to me if it wasn't late as hell. late night essays make you impulsive, so i guess ignore my little petition until we get an answer that will likely be this and i will look incredibly silly. you still love me right, ToonamiGAF?

here is the English cast of Space Dandy:

Dandy - Ian Sinclair (Toriko - Toriko, Robber A - Dragon Ball Z Movie 13: Wrath of the Dragon)
QT - Alison Viktorin (Conan Edogawa - Case Closed)
Meow - Joel McDonald (Takumi Fujiwara - Initial D, Kilik (the black kid with glasses) - Soul Eater)
Dr. Gel - J. Michael Tatum (Scar - FMA Brotherhood, Eneru - One Piece, Okabe - Steins;Gate, Sold His Wife - Samurai 7)
Bea - Micah Solusod (Soul - Soul Eater)
Perry - Kent Williams (Father - FMA Brotherhood, Dr. Gero - DBZ, Captain Kuro - One Piece, That Cat - Darker Than Black)
Honey - Alexis Tipton (uh.....)
Scarlet - Colleen Clinkenbeard (Riza Hawkeye - FMA, G cup - Deadman Wonderland)
Narrator - R. Bruce Elliott (Kambei - Samurai 7, Richard Moore - Case Closed)

(if you guys can help me with who Ian Sinclair, Joel McDonald, and Alexis Tipton play that'd be great)


Ian Sinclair has been getting work lately. I haven't heard much from him, but his Brook is very spot on.

I imagine Dandy will be a different beast though. How is his Toriko?

I'm sure Viz saw an opportunity to keep both shows on the air and took it.

Now Toonami is nicely divided between new and old, which I'm fine with.

Demarco explains on twitter what's happening:

"#toonami fans, so I'm not doing this all day: we were allowed by partners to extend our ORIGINAL Naruto deal (52 eps) for a second run.

Continuing from where we left off would have been prohibitively expensive. Basically, it was get Shuppuden/re-run Naruto or continue...

…with new Naruto eps, but NO Shippuden. The choice was clear. That's the first and last time I'll deal with that here so please do not ask.

IN SHORT: You can't have it all, and neither can we. But I certainly think 3 solid hours of premieres is a good way to kick off the year. "

He also says Toonami 2.0 is way beyond where he expected it to be by this point which in encouraging news to say the least :)
