Thanks for posting this. When I was cast as TOM it was when I first realized I had stumbled onto a career.

[@Junior_VT]

Thanks for providing the voice to many childhoods including mine!

[@thesonnystrait]

my pleasure

[@thesonnystrait]

Thanks very much. But Steve's done a magnificent job with TOM

[@thesonnystrait]

Ok. I'll just say thank you very much and leave it at that :)

[@OneBirdAllStoned]

wait, your telling me krillin and tom were voiced by the same guy? O_o

[@SeFu2006]

Toonami’s intros sometimes were more epic than the actual anime being aired.

[@zmbklr101]

Ah. Little four year old me watched the hell out of classic Toonami. The nostalgia's so powerful it physically hurts.

[@L33TRedNinja]

No truer words have been spoken, dude. 😌

[@MrXxxheroicxxx]

toonami+ps2+skateboarding everyday+dbz obsession =my childhood

[@civicgamessports6937]

Don't forget to mix in MTV before it went to shit. This is right around the time jackass was taking off..... Good times

[@mystichammer6517]

They need to have a channel dedicated solely to replay these EXACT runs. Nothing changes. They should even play commercials from the late-90s and early-00s.

[@spirit_shadow9590]

They still do, it's called toonami aftermath, look it up.

[@OwlDago.]

I would pay $

[@mystichammer6517]

@@spirit_shadow9590 holy shit! Don't know how I missed that. Thanks a ton!

[@andrearosario8512]

I gotta say 'bumps' guy for Toonami was ahead of his time. Using anime shorts coupled with precise kinetic animations and musical synchronicity was quite timeless.

[@coolslc]

You remember when we used to say “I cant wait to grow up”, I really regret saying that now...

[@nolajets6382]

Maaaaan spot on 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@yungsambaflexer]

i'm happy i got to live and grow up in this era, this is a beautiful thing to look back on. I remember how peaceful things were back then. Times have changed :/

[@kn00tcn]

didnt seem so peaceful with all those monsters/demons/giant robots/super saiyans/bounty hunters smashing everything on the planet

[@totianah.1018]

No Responsibilities!!!!😎😂😂

[@civicgamessports6937]

I can't stress enough to some people how different the world was before 9/11....

[@nonamelegend_vapor]

Toonami was my everything back then. The drum and bass soundtrack wil never not slap

[@daved1113]

The nostalgia hits you like a train

[@DJWaffleston]

Ahh, classic late 90s/early 2000s CGI graphics.

[@blaise4721]

(Crying) I miss the old days

[@AlanFernandoGamino]

Blaise Suck It Up Son! & Be A Man?

[@nolanpayne]

*breathes* Toonami Forever…

[@AlphaCollectorCZ]

Best times of my life... watchin toonami..

[@AlexChambersXYZ]

Oh my god, this is why I like Drum and Bass

[@chanman5001]

For real haha i listen to it all the time and it always reminds me of early 2000's toonami and ps1 and ps2 games!

[@nolanpayne]

Drop. That. Beat.

[@HYPNOGLANCE87]

This was THE best anime late night cartoon show ever.Seriously the longer it ran the better it got.I miss this awhole lot anyone remember Tenchi Muyo? that was a crazy show lol.

[@jacobrobinson787]

Toonami was how I even learned about Sailor Moon. Granted the dub aged like milk but man does it still hit me in the feels. Hell, it was how I learned about anime in general with Sailor Moon, DBZ, Zoids and of course, Gundam. And I still remember when Transformers Armada premiered.

[@ericfischer8295]

22 years ago Toonami started… The internet was new and it was the golden age of Flash and Anime, the web was full of silliness and innocence and all of us were younger and perhaps less jaded… Let us look back to that Golden age and reflect on what once was.

[@alvinpaige9132]

I get sad everytime i see this, ive been here since the beginning and it just shows how fast time flys

[@thesonnystrait]

Think how I feel. I was 33 when I played TOM

[@smh02]

damn lmao

[@Adrians_Ideas]

this is so much cooler than what we have now.

[@samuraitelia]

yes, i remember everytime i got out of school cartoon network: Toonami 4-7

[@moviechic07]

Meh this makes me nostalgic. I was 10/11 yrs old at the time. Toonami was my favorite thing on tv.

[@ss6truks]

Hope you're enjoying your 30s! I'm just about there myself lol I was like 7-8 it's crazy to think 20 years went like that in a flash

[@marcusallen9864]

I would love a documentary about how all this came together. This was a part so many ppls childhood.

[@jonathangriffin4277]

Toonami needs to be its own channel!

[@Anthony-dj4nd]

Seems like a fever dream now looking back. Amazing! 😮

[@mystichammer6517]

This was SO hype back in the day. Still gets you hyped.

[@BreezyGamer92]

This is awesome to see again. It's like watching a chunk of my childhood over again.

[@shinzantetsu]

if you guys like the music,theres a toonami music album..i think its called deep space,i recommend it.

[@nolanpayne]

I think there’s a Toonami rhythm game that came with this album. It’s where you play as TOM 2 and you run through obstacles to the beat of the music. It’s a bit like Vib Ribbon, but with Toonami.

[@gamerex9378]

Nostalgia so strong the goosebumps hurt.

[@jrthehedgehogpizzaking7625]

Omg the nostalgia..... :,)

[@1988thefreeman]

Wish we could turn back time to the good old days ~

[@parisbeech2180]

Long live toonami you will always be in my heart

[@ImmortalKyle]

This shit is so badass, big thanks to Toonami and Adult Swim!

[@jonathangriffin4277]

6:03 almost 25 years later, I'm now almost 40 years old and this shit still hits. . . .fuck yea Toonami, fuck yea Tom!

[@ssjmeetri]

I remember those drawings, I sent in one myself

[@benitomartinez2106]

this blows my mind thank you for sharing this with everyone who grew up watching and loving toonami

[@SweetLindsey123]

I like the new intros but I hope in the future the intros will be more like this again 0:30 or 9:34 or different. Nice vid, it brings back memories and the new toonami's also making new memories for us. It keeps getting better and better :)

[@KiddGreen1]

Love these classic Toonami bumps!! Takes me back into the good ol' days

[@likeclockwork6473]

These were the best years of toonami

[@Sykroid]

Decades later, and this still hits me like it used to, making me excited for the wonders of anime. There was just something so different about that world of animation, and Toonami hyped it up perfectly....

[@ssjmeetri]

Back when toonami came on every week days

[@whywhyman]

Look what kids have these days.... IPhone, girlfriends & what not! Toonami was the best thing to happen to Cartoon Network!

[@yungjc2]

whywhyman they don't all have girlfriends.lol

[@whywhyman]

^ ohh lol.. yes, not everyone has girlfriends! :D

[@ShyBoy6ty9]

Toonami > girlfriends anyway

[@terryb830tb]

Man I loved toonami I was young a.f too

[@CreativeSageJO]

FUCK iM OLD........

[@yungjc2]

Redfieldchaos us too

[@dencamp6685]

R.I.P. Tom 1.0

[@nolanpayne]

The Toonami creators were going to have multiple designs for TOM, he was going to be part of a band consisting of a rabbit drummer, a monkey bassist, a chicken guitarist, and an AI keyboardist who would later become the second version of Sara. Along with this, he was going to wear a Playboy bunny costume, and then have a human girlfriend named Hecate.

[@ianpender5969]

Nostalgasm! They don't make stuff like they used too.

[@alligatorsam5357]

This is more precious to me than than I can express..

[@brianblankenship1575]

Thanks for making me actually cry 😭

[@collinsonyoutube]

Sailor moon!!!!!

[@kuraudo9700]

Rest in Peace Akira Toriyama! 🔥💯

[@SSJ491]

That was the great time that my brother and I watched Toonami back then when the program was in it's prime. Reboot, Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball Z, Yu Yu Hakusho. Oh man so many great action cartoons and anime that we watched when we was were kids. The best period ever that Toonami had it's A game on when the program used to be on weekdays.

[@ssjmeetri]

WOW brought back so many memories!!!!

[@2723Xonk]

Great time in life and history! I’ll always remember coming home from school after trading Pokemon cards and having to choose between watching Pokemon and DBZ. I’ll never forget all the great anime that I was introduced to. Reboot was great too!

[@TrueTrife]

Man I freaking LOVED Reboot, that was my show! But at 5 you dared not miss DBZ! And Tom, the instrumental remixes, and atmosphere of Toonami fit so perfectly, you knew this wasn't the normal cartoon block hour.

[@zangetsudx1]

I wanna go back to those years so bad. Someone please make a time machine

[@SunStar-lc6sj]

For me adding DBZ to the lineup made this block better than before. Feel it peaked when it went to three hours and just didn’t feel quite the same when they got rid of most the shows I liked watching. Even when the added the third hour back there were only three shows on the lineup.

[@KakarotLee33]

I LOVE ALL THIS !!!

[@Gredran]

Look at how much its grown from this in 1999 to the peak with TOM 3... It gives me hope that it can grow to at least, a good portion of its former glory :)

[@shinzantetsu]

back in high school i would go back home and get ready for toonami

[@AlanFernandoGamino]

6:03 Best Intro Ever Since (1999) 15 Years Later. #Toonami #TBT #ThrowbackThursday

[@jarryj1995]

YOOO I Remember this Man!! DA FEELS ARE REALLL T^T

[@somepersonintheworld1707]

[@josephbenedetto8989]

Thank you for this the feeling is indescribable feel like I'm back at my grandmas apt after school watching t.v getting goosebumps watching goku turn super syaian or some good Gundam battles to samurai jack.. good times

[@tylercarta433]

At 5:51 T.O.M begins to say something very true he got so right on.

[@fuckyoutubehandles1]

2:35 You know these TV spots are old when they say "New School" and it's followed by a clip of early Ocean Dub DBZ.

[@TheJE32]

Oh yes, that takes me back to the good days. #ThrowbackThursday

[@TheJE32]

Never forget that

[@Shen.yeng234]

TheJE32 222222222332

[@TuckDezi]

Was def there for this.... miss that Kenshin hype back then... 100% responsible for my love of anime... lived for this after school... had to move on to subs though, sooo much better!

[@tombystander]

Thank u for making me feel like I'm 10 again. Idc if it's for tiny fragments of time. They r magical

[@links5957]

Um In that time, when changed Moltar to Tom Love the Changes adding NEW SHOWS 1999 - 2000. Outlaw Star, Tenchi Muyo, The Gumdam Shows, Reboot, Batman Superman Animated Series, Midnight RUN. Tom being the new Host. Greatest times Ever! There's Nothing going to be like this Ever Again.

[@Lil-lr6uj]

Throwwbacccl!!! So hype

[@WesleyWhiteside]

Wow! So many promos from the golden era of Toonami! I haven't seen most of these finds since they aired and some I've never seen at all. Toonami was the only place i remember encouraging kids to stay up past their bedtime, haha. I only wish this wasn't stretched. You can fix this using most editing software.

[@BigKogaDragonBossMan]

The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest

[@DualStupidity]

This is where like a third of Vaporwave's vibe comes from

[@X-Axel]

Tom is so fucking cool

[@nolanpayne]

he cute, ngl.

[@Toonami181]

I started looking at Toonami in 1999. I'm 21 now.

[@niggasgang8784]

[@user-pm9xs5qb9t]

Memories

[@jeffreyrodriguez9545]

Wow this was part of my childhood

[@jet4212006]

Rini completely misses, "GOTCHA!!!"

[@SHAMSHAM1090]

Play this as I go to sleep

[@brandonparker6696]

Nostalgia....!!! ToT

[@TheBrandonn]

Drum n bass, named after a tsunami..... I'm genuinely surprised the name hasn't been changed or come under fire yet. I'm sure it'll come. It took em a few decades to get aunt jemima so we'll see

[@justincarter2500]

"Phase one complete."😁😁😁

[@devinmcgee5265]

10/10

[@jakster16]

toonami- prayer

[@gsutton219]

Dude I could cry watching this shit

[@BlueCadet3_]

Take me back

[@nolanpayne]

Man, TOM 1 was a pop star back then. He’s so cute :3

[@gernonjones8871]

Ah, good old sailor moon, my fave show on toonami

[@matthewgraton2401]

I wish had these commercials when I rewatch my old anime like it was a vhs recorded off the TV but remastered

[@Stickygod]

"Draw like the wind."

[@nolanpayne]

Optimus prime narration lol

[@josephespinoza115]

Well ill be damned it really is Tom and sonny in one.. greetings from México whodve know toonami would introduce the west to all the anime!

[@aNapTownLegend]

OMG Reboot, i could not remember the name of that show to save my Life. but man i miss the old Toonami, but it is back and with even more Anime now. so i am fine with that, but i can bet the old Toonami.

[@nolanpayne]

It’s kinda strange how nobody’s talking about TOM 1 being cute, instead, everybody’s getting nostalgia from Reboot :P

[@UnCreativeDeconstructionism]

"Thats right. We got that "Good Good"" lol That seems like a light stoner welcome.

[@thehsushoe]

That old absolution looked so bad ass!

[@kaneslives]

I feel old...
