Word is that the hottest new Gundam series is apparently based off of one of Toonami's mightiest champions, Gundam Wing. But are the rumors true?

I hope this new series is pretty good. I can't really comment on the article, because I want to avoid spoilers and stuff, but I'm hoping this new Gundam series can respark Toonami's flame and help the block to start moving forward again.

I think there's a good chance of it, if Toonami can get the rights. Hopefully Seed didn't leave too bitter a taste.

How far into the show are you?
I've stopped around episode 2 now I'm going back and catching up before season one ends.

Thing is? I don't see this as a Toonami show.
If there was no [adult swim] then I'd say Yeah okay the Midnight run.
I'm on episode 9 or so right now.
Obvious connectivity to Wing?

Yes.

But a even more "Holy Crap" stark connection to our own world and todays' issues.

So am I saying 00 for [as]? I can't say really.
But because every subsequent Gundam has pretty much failed where Wing soared, Toonami has said they're probably not gonna air anymore Gundam series.
And [as] said they'd leave the Gundam shows to Toonami.

I'm almost done with it. I think it would be great in Toonami if CN would understand that their age range doesn't HAVE to be 6 year olds. With a little editing, 00 would be exactly like Wing and Seed in terms of content. It certainly doesn't 'need' AS in order to air.

I dunno.
More Disco Guns!? :P
But bleh. I think its to soon for something like 00 to air on CN.
I mainly think so cause of that whole Real World Reality thing.

LOL. Hopefully times haven't changed since I was a kid, and moms are still just glad their kids are staying out of trouble for an entire afternoon. :lol: Tell you what, get a Gundam show and a Capri Sun - that's all you need.

But yeah tell you what though, the whole post-9/11 feel to it is what drives it well IMO.
I dunno if I'd take it over Wing YET.
But..in the end? I might :lol:

EDIT: ....A Yoo-Hoo

I'm completely caught up.
Yeah.
f*** Toonami on this one.

I don't think I'd wanna see it on [adult swim].
but no way would it air even close to uncut on toonami..
And nuances would be edited.
Oh and Disco Guns AHOY!

March 09th, 2008: After a couple of hours of fiddling around in Windows Movie Maker, I was able to create this mash-up of Gundam 00 and Toonami's 'In the Distant Future' megapromo for Gundam Wing. Yes, yes, it would've have been better without subtitles but I have a life to lead and the lip sync makes up for it, in my opinion. At any rate, enjoy!

Nice. Youtube actually didn't screw up the sync like it sometimes does.

I really hope Toonami lands Gundam 00.

Someone was psychic... as we know, Sci Fi has been airing the Gundam 00 dub for almost a month now. Any opinions on it... especially you, Nick?! I haven't been able to watch Ani-Monday for about a month & a half... BTW, the mash-up you did with Gundam 00 video & that Toonami GW audio... in the words of Megabyte: "Ex-cell-ent!" Spot-on lip-sync... & the "Big Guy" makes everything sound better. So why don't they get rid of "Southern Fried Guy" on "You Are Here" for Peter Cullum?! He's associated more with Ben 10: Alien Force than Toonami now... & he could even make "King Munny" look cooler!
