With Toonami back in action, lots of requests come up for what should be on the block so here are ten shows that should be must haves for the block.
10. Avengers: Earths Mightiest Heroes
Marvel is wasted in the hands of Disney and with the insane popularity of the Avengers it would be an easy choice to make.
9. Batman the Animated Series
Kinda ironic that DC, market most of their shows to Cartoon Network but has never broadcast it's best cartoon, and seeing as the original X-Men still gets reruns 20 Years from it's original run I think it's about time the best Batman cartoon came back as well.
8. Black Cat
A Shonen Jump series with enough slapstick to not be too serious and enough action to please the programming block.
7. Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple
Kid being bullied for being weak suddenly becomes a martial arts genius through the training of several different masters, hilarity ensues. Come on, it's got Toonami written all over it.
6. Amethyst: Princess of Gemworld
I've mentioned before how much I want this series to be a reality and with the likes of Sailor Moon & Cardcaptors having graced the action slot, it's about time the westerners show what it's really capable of.
5. Sengoku Basara
Over the top action with impossible moves and memorable characters, and hearing "YOUR LORDSHIP!" shouted on Toonami is too good to pass up.
4. Gurren Lagann
Speaking of awesome isn't it about time Gurren Lagann made an appearance on the Network? Might make up for the lack of mecha at the moment and runs nicely along side Sym Bionic Titan.
3. Scott Pilgrim
It does count as it was briefly animated but should they try a full series it would be an easy choice for Toonami and isn't reliant on a translation first.
2. Tiger & Bunny
Superheroes are a staple of a good Toonami block and Tiger & Bunny can fill up both that and anime. And with that animation style as well, it certainly makes Toonami look more professional.
1. Fairy Tail
But to be a household name you need a powerhouse series, not one that's been done before (Naruto), not one who's seen itself lose it's fans due to decay (Bleach), not a series with such a difficult dubbing history (One Piece) nor a series that's out of date (Dragonballz) or needs remaking (Dragonball Kai).
What we need is a fresh series that is as good as all the Shonen Jump classics but doesn't push things too far in terms of being overly violent or bad language. Get it now Toonami, you don't even need to edit it.
