Toonami Coming Back to Adult Swim

  

Cartoon Network is bringing back Toonami to it’s Adult Swim block on May 27 at 12:00 a.m. (midnight).  Most of the shows will be what you would think: Bleach; Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood; Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig; and Cowboy Bebop.  However two shows will be airing that are new to the block: Deadman Wonderland (12:30 a.m.) and Casshern Sins (1:00 a.m.)  It’s good to see Toonami coming back and hopefully they will expand on their variety of shows in the future.

AMV of the Week Do Over

Didn’t realize I had already done the tribute video for Serenity, so here is another AMV for you.  This one comes from YouTuber SimplyMadStudiOs.  This AMV takes the song “Like it Loud” performed by Myah Marie and edits it to several anime: Bleach; Ookami-san; Toradora; Angel Beats; Higurashi; Macross Frontier; Shuffle!; Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya; and Umineko, as stated by the maker of the AMV.  It spotlights the female characters of these anime as the tough ladies that they are.  The transitions are timed with the beats of the song which make it a fast paced video.  The added background isn’t distracting, but add to the video.  Just a great video with a great song nice going SimplyMadStudiOs.  You can find the AMV on YouTube under “[SmS] We like it Loud! [Collab]” or check it out below:
