Adult Swim is "going back in time" as it is set to launch a new Toonami Rewind block on May 31, 2024, that will feature such classic anime as Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball Z Kai, and Naruto.
Toonami shared the news on Facebook with a video and the schedule of when fans can expect to enjoy this new programming.
"We are happy to announce that every Friday, starting May 31st, Toonami is going back in time," Toonami wrote. "Say hello to Toonami Rewind, Friday 5-7p on Adult Swim."
The VIZ English Dub version of Sailor Moon will kick off Toonami Rewind at 5pm and it will be followed by two episodes of Dragon Ball Z Kai from 5:30pm - 6:30pm. Naruto will then close things out at 6:30pm.
While the tweet has since been deleted, Anime News Network reported that Toonami co-creator Jason DeMarco confirmed that Rewind is really leaning into the nostalgic vibes as it will also feature "classic older Toonami music and some older packaging."
Cartoon Network's original Toonami block ran from 1997 to 2008 and returned to Adult Swin on Saturdays in May 2012.
