For those of you who don't know. Our childhood has been officially erased. Cartoon Network cancelled Toonami as of last Saturday. Even though it's been nothing but shit after they took One Piece off the air, it still holds a place in my heart as the ONLY thing I watched in my younger years.

Discuss. Glad it's gone? BAWWW that it's gone? Remember fond moments?

glad it's gone, after the DBZ episodes were done it was pretty much worthless crappy kid animes.

when did dbz finish in america? like 2000? should've ended 8 years ago.

Pretty much, at this point it's like euthanasia.
