@jsp2k4 @jeffpiatt @Burning_Razor jsp2k4 Anime existed in the US before Toonami (e.g., Astro Boy in 1963, Robotech in the 80s), but remained niche among fans. Toonami, launching in 1997, made it mainstream by broadcasting hits like Dragon Ball Z to wide audiences. Sources: Wikipedia, Vulture, Quora.
