During the time Adult Swim is normally on. CN ran... Toonami. Dead serious, the same Toonami block that ran anime like Dragon Ball Z, Yu Yu Hakusho, Naruto, Zatch Bell, and One Piece (both the infamous 4Kids dub and the Funimation dub). It even showed some western action cartoons like Justice League, Jackie Chan Adventures, and Teen Titans

During this prank though, CN showed DBZ (standard, not Kai), Yu Yu Hakusho, Outlaw Star, Tenchi Muyo, and several others like TriGun.

For those who DID watch Toonami on CN, what are your thoughts on this devious prank?

Yep, that made quite a stir. I was asleep though, and never watched any of the shows they aired last night.

I guess it's more like 50/50. The best part about kenshin is the prequel OVA, anime is lots of meh.

Adult Swim did. I'm just stating that Cowboy Bebop and Trigun weren't the only great shows that aired on Cartoon Network.

You mentioned Deathnote in the same post as Cowboy Bebop. You're just making it easy for him.

Chances are their ratings for that night alone were probably higher than they've ever been in years, yet they'll still insist on not bringing toonami back.

and sh*t like Level Up still gets green lighted :\

I seriously doubt it would even make a dent. Then again, the ratings for April 1st have yet to come in, but CN has been gaining ratings gradually for a while, and Level Up is probably one of those reasons. Live action tween shows are going through a fad right now, so CN is cashing in where it can.

Basically.

Though really, I'm into all sorts of mecha, it's not much better from a quality perspective I suppose.

They'll hate it just because it's not 1999 anymore. People want their childhood, and they won't get it ever.
