I should hope so, it's not nearly hyperactive enough for Toonami, but there's always Saturday night.

Saturday doesn't seem viable. Most of shows on there are hyper-active and kiddy by nature (don't mention Kenshin and YYH.) I'm most certainly seeing an Adult Swim premiere for it. Hopefully this means we won't be watching Reign for too long...

I doubt that Cartoon Network is stupid enought to put this on Toonami.

They put Kenshin on Toonami.
And Inuyasha on Adult Swim. (frankly, I don't mind IY on AS, its just the screaming fans it brings)

What's wrong with screaming fans? They're certainly better than screaming anime-haters... But not by much

Well, if you have ever been on Adult Swim's festoring message boards you'd notice most intelligent conversation covered by many "WHEN DO NEW INUYASHA EPISODES START?????," (seem to get a lot of those here, too) "DOES SESSHOUMARU HAVE A TAIL????," and "I LOVE INUYASHA!!!" posts. Plus most of them are ignorant enough to beleive any rumor you mention about the show. I mentioned something to the effect of "What if CN moved it to Toonami?" and someone read that as "Inuyasha is moving to Toonami." Needless to say, I've learned not to say anything bad about Inuyasha over there.

Maybe, but they've also got a fair share of sombre titles like .hack which is big on dialogue and light on action. Then there's Justice League which is far more adult in nature then you'd expect.
Also, didn't Cartoon Network say that they were looking at expanding Adult Swim into Saturday nights? I know Toonzone had mentioned it, but I'm not sure if that was ever confermed or debunked.

I've seen some clips of this show, and it looks like it has a fair amount of gunplay, something we all know Toonami doesn't like.
And the Saturday AS thing has something to do with a movie night.

Kenshin isn't nearly as an adult/mature series as WHR. There isn't really any gunplay in the series either.

WHR?! That's awesome! I never really expected it to air on tv here. XD Cartoonnetwork gets the occult law and order anime. ^.^ *can't wait to tell her anime club to watch it*

It'll go on Adult Swim, I'm fairly certain. Even though .hack//SIGN is dialogue heavy/action light, it's got a much more...bright & colourful air about it than Witch Hunter Robin, which is incredibly dark and somber judging from the episodes I've seen. Plus there's the gunplay factor, and we all know CN is a bit leery of having supernatural things on Toonami (I haven't cared to check, but how DID they get around that with Yuu Yuu Hakusho?).
