Former Toonami front-man and newly appointed VP of Cartoon Network Jason DeMarco has reveled that Steve Blum will return as TOM, but we will not be seeing his computer Sara nor will we hear Peter Cullin calling the shots in between shows. DeMarco has also mentioned that this Toonami has a very small budget to work with and that they will need alot of good ratings to make more money to buy new shows. He also mentioned that shows such as One Piece, Inu Yasha: The Final Act, and Fairy Tail would be great shows to bring to Toonami in the near future.
As for the two new shows Deadman Wonderland & Casshern Sins, here is a brief introduction to both stories:
DEADMAN WONDERLAND
From MangaReader.net: "The Great Tokyo Earthquake. Ten years ago, it destroyed lives as it tore buildings asunder. Among those who lived through the disaster was Ganta Igarashi, now a middle school student finally getting a footing in his own life... that is, until the day the 'Red Man' appears at his school and turns his world upside down again. Ganta's entire class is brutally murdered, and although innocent of the crime, Ganta is sentenced to death and sent to the bizarre prison known as 'Deadman Wonderland.' There, a brutal game of survival begins, where Ganta must discover the truth behind his classmates' murder. Can Ganta break out of Deadman Wonderland... or will it break him first?"
CASSHERN SINS
From Wikipedia: "Casshern Sins tells the story of a world where robots subjugated humanity after becoming self-aware. Their leader, Braiking Boss, ruled over the world with an iron fist. One day, a mysterious girl named Luna is summoned by the people, in order to bring the salvation of mankind. Fearing her as a potential threat, Braiking Boss sent three of his most powerful cyborg warriors to dispose of Luna: Casshern, Dio, and Leda. Casshern, the strongest warrior, manages to track down and kill Luna. However, this triggers a cataclysmic event which sets into motion the end of the world. Hundreds of years later, the world's atmosphere is filled with poison, and, due to the inability of most remaining humans to reproduce, as well as the constant threat posed by the robots, humanity is on the brink of extinction."
As for shows such as Durarara & Kakaishi, Adult Swim still can play them whenever they please. I would expect to see them again once Cowbhoy Bebop or GitS ends or sometime in the near future. They will probably end up being tossed into the rotation of anime that is played in the later evening too. My Fiancee will be sad to now have Durara & Kakaishi on, but we own Durarara so maybe it wont be so bad. I look forward to watching Deadman Wonderland though. ^^x
