Toonami

Toonami (/tuːˈnɑːmi/ too-NAH-mee) is an American late-night television programming block that broadcasts Japanese anime and American action animation. It was created by Sean Akins and Jason DeMarco and produced by Williams Street, a division of Warner Bros. Television Studios, and owned by The Cartoon Network, Inc. subsidiary of Warner Bros. Discovery. The name is a portmanteau of the words "cartoon" and "tsunami". It currently broadcasts every Saturday night from 12 a.m. to 3:30 a.m. ET/PT.

On May 26, 2012, Toonami was relaunched as a late night block on Adult Swim. The current incarnation is a rebrand of Adult Swim's Saturday night action block (itself inherited from Toonami's Midnight Run block), which primarily aired anime that were deemed too mature for the daytime hours. A Friday afternoon block consisting of classic anime, Toonami Rewind, launched on May 31, 2024; it airs from 5 to 7 p.m. ET/PT and complements the now-Monday-through-Thursday Checkered Past block of older Cartoon Network series.
