Toonami

Toonami ( too-NAH-mee) is a television programming block that primarily consists of Japanese anime and American action animation. It was created by Sean Akins and Jason DeMarco and produced by Williams Street, a division of Warner Bros. Entertainment. The name is a portmanteau of the words "cartoon" and "tsunami". It currently broadcasts every Saturday night from 11 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. ET. Toonami initially ran as an afternoon and evening block on Cartoon Network, aimed at children aged 6–12 from 1997 to 2008. In its original run, the block was known for showcasing action anime that became widely popular with American audiences. It was also recognized for its distinctive space-themed backdrop, anime music videos, drum and bass-flavored soundtrack, and host (a robot named T.O.M., short for Toonami Operations Module). On May 26, 2012, Toonami was relaunched as part of Cartoon Network's nightly adult-oriented block, Adult Swim. The current incarnation is a rebrand of Adult Swim's Saturday night action block (itself inherited from Toonami's Midnight Run block), which primarily airs mature Japanese animation, though the block has also aired reruns of action shows seen on Cartoon Network.
