This is why I sometimes hate Naruto and Toonami, next month is toonami's like 3rd Naruto marathon this year. Which basically leaves no love for Zatch Bell and BoBoBo.

Well, this is surprising. The other movies after 6 have been kind of skipped over as far as airing, so I figured the days of DBZ movies on CN were done. But I'm kinda glad they have the good sense to air what are easily the 2 best movies. The ones which even this old DBZ burn out will still rewatch occasionally.

The think about Toonami is used be great when they had really good shows. I mean use to have, so many anime shows that they never egnior single show for other. Even new shows in lineup are not as good as was back in late 90's. There nothing that standout that make lineup strong. The only thing different now is DBZ is not focuse but Naurto. I like show, but there no need for marthon aftrer marthon. Could of work more harder and get new espoids of other shows intead doing marthons and movies. And then after show movie on Toonami they reair without Toonami the next day.

The best network for anime has been IFC. Even thought don't have anime lineup of CN and Toonami there uncut and cammerical free.

I like to see networks more intune to audience then focuse on most poplar thing of right now. Would be great if network just focuse on Sheon Jump animation.

Well, I've already seen these movies, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to watch 'em again if I have time when they're airing. But why would they air another Naruto marathon? They've already had like 3 of them. Well, I guess Naruto is the show on Toonami which gets the highest ratings, so they'll try to bring in as much viewers as they can.

There's no swastika on his helmet, just an "x"... so maybe they'll leave it intact since kids might think he's just some evil army guy or something.

Its good to see they haven't forgotten about the Z. Very good indeed. I will be watching God willing.

I don't see why everyone complains about Naruto marathons either. I find it enjoyable to watch more than one Naruto at a time. Espeacilly since the format drags the story out so much. I mean it is a hot property, they will show it every chance they can once a week.

Of all the days to have a marathon of new Naruto episodes, why did it have to be on the same weekend as Anime USA? Sad

When was this announced? I have played and beaten every DBZ game except for the one coming out some time this month. I NEED THE NEW DBZ GAME FOR Wii. Crap, I wasn't going to get the Wii, now I have to.
