Space Is The Place | Toonami 25th Anniversary

[@UraharaShoten]

These editors were so ahead of their time. There's been nothing else like it on TV for some time. I'll never forget that heavy breathing.

[@Lancer_]

Miss hearing all these soundtracks and seeing edits like these as a kid. The new generation deserves to see these

[@xsailor85]

eBay or Amazon for the Toonami Deep Space Bass soundtrack.

[@murphyjackedoff5970]

Within the decade you’re gonna see a push for anti anonymity on the internet, and real universal ID for everything, from buying food to accessing your bank to just about anything. They’ll justify this invasion of your privacy and destruction of your freedoms on the (false) basis of safety and security- “oh we can’t have the bad/cowardly people hide behind fake internet names and personas” “oh we need to make sure our kids aren’t listening to wrongthink from total strangers”, etc. And you’ll see social media msm and big tech push for government sponsored stripping away of anonymous usernames.

[@charaznable8082]

My childhood, and so many others. Always so uplifting. Take note. This is how trailers should be done. Thank you Toonami. From Gundam, to Tenchi to all in-between. Here's to another 25 years!

[@Dexterityshow]

LFG!!!

[@mrcreepypastaigotapastatop4461]

Here's to the next 1,000 years to another 1,000 even more years until the end of the world and a new beginning to all of us on our continued chapters of journey to our destination✨️

[@ericleef1319]

Nostalgic AF

[@kasuraga]

These trailers gripped me and really made me hyped for all these series back in the day. There's nothing like the classic toonami trailers. Man would I love even just a week of the classic toonami lineup from this era.

[@Mefy_]

The Red Comet himself has spoken.

[@kittytreats6536]

Yet another shout out to SlimD716 for keeping the dream alive and becoming an official part of Toonami & [as] history!

I’ve watched this joint a few times a year for years…

[@ianmpena]

As a kid in the early 2000s I would always stay up late in every Saturday night and watch toonami with me and my sister and to this day I still watch toonami because it's apart of my childhood since I was 7 years old and this got me into anime

[@jerrodpettway]

My first anime was fist of the North Star.

[@ianmpena]

@@jerrodpettway nice bro my first anime was the original hellsing not ultimate and my second anime was bleach and I remember watching bleach when it was on toonami

I miss hearing ‘all kids out of the pool… yu yu hakusho is next.’

[@ronaldedge3317]

Me back in 96.

[@holliente]

This brings me back! Coming home from school, TRYING to do homework, while watching Toonami .

[@jonbranch710]

Me too

[@chillgaming1560]

Same hear. Those were the days

[@tpistols1374]

Same. I remember staying up until 2am on a school night just to watch.

[@joshuamidgette4846]

Or getting up an hour early to catch Transformers : Beast Wars.

[@shencampbell16]

Guilty and I don't regret it! Toonami was and still is my favorite broadcast!!

[@LacertaZilla2024]

I want to thank Steve Blum in person for not just being the voice of Tom but for making my childhood amazing with all the cool anime shows even now

[@c.galindo9639]

Shout out to Steve Blum *Air horn noises*

[@TheSmokingMustache]

I got mad lucky at a convention, totally dead, almost no one walking around and got to not only meet Blum, but hang out with him for like an hour chatting. I was giddy for hours afterwards, very cool guy.

[@jeremycolon]

Seriously! Whoever decided to put this up…THANK YOU. My God Thank you Toonani for giving me a childhood where I could get lost in space and find myself through creative storylines and plots. So many amazing memories especially coming home from school to for the line up to start at 5pm.

[@AccordingToWalt]

I remember the 5 o'clock line up of thunder cats, og Voltron, dragon ball z, and Gundam Wing. Then there was tenchi muyo, Yu Yu Hakusho, ruruoni Kenshin, and Ronin warriors.

[@jeremycolon]

@@AccordingToWalt the stuff of legends ! I’m so happy you got to experience that.

[@621Chopsuey]

The 90s truly were a wonderful time. How I miss them so.

[@jazallc938]

Indeed.

[@KC_Smooth]

Me too… It was magical.

[@RustyKoi]

The voice actors from Gundam Wing were INCREDIBLE. The tone and feel of the show, the music, the atmospheric lingering shots, chef's kiss.

[@HerroYuy246]

It was so good

[@user-em6ie2be7x]

The Golden Age of Cartoon Network 💛.

God I miss this nostalgic feeling. Taking us back to the early 2000s. Staying up late on Saturday nights to watch some of the best anime ever produced. Please make more trailers with this music and vibe.

[@hcook1023]

I remember when it played twice daily not just Saturday

[@michaellocke7861]

My childhood back when things were simple

[@ImNotJoshBoltz]

When I saw yesterday that Adult Swim was going to be remastering old Toonami promos this was the first one I thought of. Hits right in the early 2000s teen nostalgia.

[@thaddeusphillips3181]

Got chills watching this again. What a gift Toonami is and was.

[@cerberus144]

Just rewatched Gundam Wing and Endless Waltz for the first time in over 20 years and it was a great nostalgic trip

[@legacyoftheash7327]

Man, I hope the people that edited these videos together back in the late 90s and early 00s enjoyed doing so. I will always appreciate the cold, moody ambiance these bumps exude.

[@whizwart1]

00:52 that drop. Here it in my head all the time.

[@daymoarts]

Here's to 25, Toonami. You brought anime to my life and I love ya. For it

[@Kaiden-9226]

Toonami was my first experience watching anime thanks for the memories adult swim

[@markellison2152]

THIS! This VIBE and these are shows are the very essences of my childhood. What a badass childhood we had! Never let your inner 10 year old down, keep reaching for them star, and always remember... Space is the place!

[@WakeUpMissoula]

That Vinyl scratching in the audio was a nice touch.

[@durtyred86]

What a VIBE. Thanks for paving the way towards some of the best shows to ever hit the TV!

[@RavinKaito]

Nice! The metroidman7/SlimD716 footage! :D I swear it's impossible not to vibe to these. Happy 25th Anniversary!

[@Suzuki750Rizla]

Only as an adult can I truly appreciate the editing in this. Lining up all the different voice clips, the music, and the imagery. Its just editing gold.

[@ade1174]

I'll forever be thankful to Toonami for getting me into anime. DB, DBZ, DBGT, G Gundam, Yu Yu Hakusho, Bobobo, IGPX, Naruto. A great childhood.

No tenchi muyo or kenshin

Man, early 2000's Toonami promos were the BEST!

[@My1DigitIQ]

I loved seeing this as a kid. I'm still inspired by it 25 years later. Space is the Place

[@DarkStarJu]

The more adult themes of Toonami & Adult Swim always made you feel so cool to watch as a kid, it was such a bonus that they came on later at night bc if you could stay awake, you felt like you were in on something special not everyone saw. Miss Toonami man

[@johncontralis4658]

The fact that it has a lot of Gundam Wing clips just made it my favorites!

[@brigaderxxx]

History... straight up history when all you need is good music team, bangin voice work & a solid anime line up. Thanks for taking me & the rest of the older faithful back to 2000 with this one

[@ryandarko2115]

28 years old now in 2022 life was too simple back when this was on mainstream television wish we could go back …..

[@Jacoblikesyoutube]

These are so cool. To think that these were produced and given valuable air time over ads shows Toonami's dedication to an experience rather than squeezing every dime out of viewers

[@KidRex47]

After all these years....Space is STILL the place!

[@lionelbailey1687]

I still remember this promo.... Thank you for all the great years!!!

[@GundamMeister357]

Love seeing these again. Only issue I have is that Gundam Wing hasn’t reached its 25th anniversary in America yet

[@Cazvolaine]

I was so blessed to be alive to experience the wave of cool that hit us in 98,99,00 and to see it on live TV.

[@Gamexpertvids]

I remember back in 2007 when Toonami ended in the UK and how monumental it was with premiering anime that other channels didn't do at the time.

[@nas0518]

Thank you, Toonami, Adult Swim and Cartoon Network. 😎

[@JustAGamerInc]

Why is it that these old style animes look better than new animes to me? Maybe I'm crazy.

[@compellingpeople]

I still think about this video and music once in a while, my childhood soudtrack right here. Oh man, Outlaw Star and Gundam have such a place in my heart.

[@E_Rice]

The greatest of all of the videos Toonami has produced. Profound effect on my career choice as an adult. 🙏🏾

[@wingzero-0014]

This is the golden age of Toonami from the early 2000s with a range of great voice actors ❤

[@fromthattimelongago3042]

What a great time to grow up, toonami introduced me to the world of anime, unlike typical cartoons, they had real world concepts and the characters had substance and depth and it really had profound effect on me as a kid and for that I am grateful.

[@AngelRodriguez-ex6sf]

Toonami rocks! Here's to 25 years of anime on cartoon network!!!

[@okeoi]

This stuff is like the best kind of nostalgia, but it's more than that... So many of us here in the comments are reminiscing and sharing how Toonami influenced us during some of our most formative years and brought anime to a mainstream western audience with such force, it undoubtedly shaped the current popularity of it as a whole. I can't believe it's been 25 years. I'm glad I was able to be there at the beginning and come back now with some of the same feelings I got back then.

[@gungasc]

hell yea, that feeling I'm 13 again staying up late with friends watching CN then staying up late to watch Adult Swim!

[@ESheld91]

Hell yeah, miss them days...

[@camarykaren]

I love these commericals growing up. The music and the scenes were so awesome such a mastering job of putting it together. I miss Toonami.

[@joserosario7409]

The good ol days. Miss this so much. 🥲

[@SaraMari]

I remember watching this promo like it was yesterday. Anime was scarce back then, thank you Toonami for bringing great titles to us

[@Bigstarrocker9]

The nostalgia gives such a rush and i love it. at the same time i must have something in my eye, who's cutting onions? My late teenage years in the 2000s coming home from school to just tune into Toonami then my day is complete. All of them like Sailor Moon, Gundam Wing, DBZ and Tenchi to name a few 25 years and here is to another!

[@marcosromero1648]

The Space Force is calling us 88, 89, 90-99 era individuals whom grew up on toonami and these space promos, (Space Is The Place) (Dreams:Broken Promise) (Mad Rhetoric)

Happy 25th Toonami! Thanks to TOM, Sara, and you, I discovered legendary anime, Daft Punk, Gorillaz, and other music artists. And of course inspirational AMVs, Here’s to another 25. 🍺

[@kevinbailey3239]

My favorite toonami bump. This beat still loops in my head at times.

[@dreamulator]

love this

[@Londonlink]

I remember the one that was like " A boy has the right to dream, there are endless amount of possibilities before you. Are you going to keep just running away..........I'm not running. - It was my fav because it featured my favorite anime Outlaw Star - TOONAMI DREAMS ( BROKEN PROMISE )

[@sreal2354]

“Outer space…it’s so quiet” that line stuck with me since a kid

[@SurpriseMechanics]

I grew up watching Toonami, I remember this watching this clip. I now work in aerospace building satellites. Thank you for inspiring me.

[@BigCityNightsMusic]

I lived for this.. I’ve literally come to this page as I was feeling space is the place .. this has been with me for 20 years now. Awesome job in preserving it.

[@gadpivs]

Whenever someone cites Nujabes as the start of lofi hip hop, I'm always like, "but what about Tommy Guerrero and Joe Boyd Vigil?" I mean yeah, the jazz samples aren't there yet, but it's slowed down breakbeats set to dreamy shots of outer space and nighttime anime scenes of characters looking up at the sky and brooding. This stuff was way ahead of its time.

[@sargetyu]

I remember being soo happy when toonami went from a cartoon network programming block to a full on channel . This was on sky in the 99-02 ish in the uk

[@sebastianharrison6118]

Thanks for making me cry I'm 31 now and I would give anything to be back when I first seen this

[@legatobluesummers4290]

My god! This was my favorite one! I know this word for word. I still do! Thank you Toonami! Thank you for my childhood and the reason I’m in to anime is because of you! Will never forget my teenage years watching Toonami and recording Gundam Wing episodes on my VHS.

[@davidharris9395]

Something so powerful about Nostalgia. I didn’t watch the show but the music and promos hit hard.

[@theBROWNbanditP]

Still one of the best and most important anime's of all time. Can't state how underrated Mobile Suit: Gundam Wing is.

[@jonathanvelazquez8946]

I never fully watched gundam and never understood it. I was like 5-9. I just remember I enjoyed them in space with big robots and fighting. I imagined I would be up there in my lifetime fixing robots or something similar.

All the best shows right here

[@KC_Smooth]

The nostalgia from this makes my hair stand on end.. I can’t believe it’s been almost 25 years.

[@TidusX16]

So many times this started Toonami when I got home from school! My friends and I would throw our backpacks down and would sit in front of the TV at my house watching Toonami until their parents came by to pick them up. Such good memories!

[@mrphauker]

This was peak television, take me back ): brings me back to being a kid with everything on TV being good as hell.

[@blackkitty369]

As a kid with these edits I always thought that all these shows were connected in some way.

[@driftkouch]

I have all these as mp3 when they were downloadable ,love love love

[@Arcalite]

We literally owe anime's popularity here in the west to toonami. Without a doubt, they were imperative to anime becoming popular over here.

[@jamesdunning8650]

Americans prefer American accents in entertainment. So having mostly Canadian voice actors dub American accents was really the game changer. Who wants to watch Sub? ;)

These classic segments were ahead of their time. Heck, they were in another time zone all by themselves.

[@colinwest8658]

This is why I got into anime. I never looked back! The feels of running home after school to catch Toonami! The late 90’s were awesome!
