Bracketed Japan / Tokyo | adult swim history

[@bumparchive]

All of these bumps last ran on May 21, 2005 during Inuyasha Movie 1, in their 15 second versions in the original bump lineup.

@Stewie Williamson You're welcome. And actually, I had posted all of the commercial breaks to that Inuyasha movie to my channel, if you'd like to see proof. lol.

The bump with fujiyama brings so much joy.

[@kp1531]

Same man, one of my absolute favorites.

[@retroroy8720]

I love these old bumps and old-school Adult Swim in general back when anime was on every day except Sunday (and Friday, since Adult Swim didn't air on Fridays back then) and I've even begun making my own custom bumps on my channel

[@bumparchive]

There were 3 still used in 2006-2007. Tennis Player, Fujiyama, and Tokyo Tower. These were cut to 10 seconds though. The Tennis one was replaced with a Super Deluxe promo in March 2007, and in May or June 2007, the other 2 were replaced due to the ACTN rebrand with Transportation themed bumps.

Thanks for the extra info! I will update the description with some of your provided details to better represent what happened.

@@SwimHistory You're welcome and I subscribed to your channel because it's nice to see more AS historians like myself. Sub to my channel if you want for some old school AS stuff. :)

[@kp1531]

I appreciate both you and SwimHistory for what you are doing. And I speak for thousands of people. I've seen it all over KZbin. These bumps meant so much to us as kids. It's amazing to believe the feelings and communication [AS] was able to give us with a 10 second image with some awesome music behind it. Truly magical.

What's funny is that those three bumps you mentioned are probably the ones I saw the most, but in the first year, they didn't air until much later.

[@xtremextras96]

@@mesousagaby740 What do you mean they didn't air until much later?

My peak Watching adult swim was 2004 through 2006. I grab watching Toonami, and then I grew to like the more adult anime, and these Japanese bumps really help set the mood.

[@Takkun4343]

Eff yeah, bracketed Japan! These were easily my favorite [as] bumps, corresponding with when I first watched the block.

[@anthonybramante2921]

The timestamps on each photo make them so much better. Like you're watching a slice of life at that exact time in the world.

[@CliffhangerProduction]

2:15 best one

[@MalikEKC]

Thank you! This made my whole Saturday! This was my whole childhood and I still play at least half these songs

[@JMonique41]

The wave of nostalgia that hit me just now....thanks for this!

[@skythewolfgon5843]

My favorites: Asakusa - 0:15, 0:30 Chiyoda - 1:16 Minato - 2:15 Shinjuku - 2:30, 3:15, 3:45

[@localhjay]

Had these for my background on computers and my zune back in the day, good memories

[@TurtleSauceGaming]

Very cool to collect them all here, but man i wish these were higher quality. If anyone knows of an upscale project, that'd be cool

[@megalon73]

any Bumps that had Japan on it. I just fall in Love with the Nation. That's, Coming from an America! How about it. my favorite is between Mt. Fuju (1:30), Ginza (1:45), Tokyo Tower (2:14), Tokyo Sky (3:14)

[@ReimuHakureiShrine]

I'm not sure if this channel is active anymore, but do you think you can do a video about the Adult Swim logo/crests they used to use in their bumpers?

[@shamaYahu8635]

Jaming!!! That first song yo

[@GLTTERXRAZI]

the song is called yesterday’s new quintet

[@Puffypoo574]

Little Girl (Dakota’s Song) by Yesterday’s New Quintet

[@HarmonicVector]

Imagine they ran Steins;Gate. One of these bumps would have to have been bracketing the Future Gadget Lab building.
