I gotta be honest......Toonami helped me break free when I was in the ending of middle school, and while misinterpreting Tom message as a mere commercial durng the 99" years; most, if not all of what he preached stayed with me even now as a 28 year old. If any producers from Cartoon network see this, I'll be happy to show this to my kids once I have them. CN networks, these DO inspire children, I was one of them. Seeing Tom narrate my cartoon heros as having the same qualities that he's like to inspire in me stayed with me. Thank you Cartoon Network.
It’s crazy I grew up with this. I’m 28 now. I still live by the morals shown to be by my shounen and anime role model figures. They’re better role models than people in real life tbh
Man, as a kid going through abuse, Tom really helped out. I’m glad I came across this today, I really needed it. My Parrot named Guaco passed away today. Miss you, my little buddy. 😞
I'm speechless. I'm going to recite these words back to my own kids. Don't let life get you down, no matter how hard things get. Get back up, wipe your eyes, dust yourself off and keep moving forward. You can't run if you don't first stumble a few times.
I like that he said, "cry a little if you need to". That's not encouraged enough. Sometimes you just gotta cry. Crying is only bad if it's all you do. If you cry and don't solve the problem, that won't help you. Cry, then get up and solve the problem.
This helped get me through some of my anxiety and panic attacks which began in high school it’s not perfect now but 7 years later and I just got back from my first flight ever which I thought I’d never do or I’d never be able to do thank you Tom, toonami, and everyone.
If you click the subtitles/closed captions button on when Tom says: "life will punch you right in the face", it says instead: "life will bless you right in the face." Talk about a hidden lesson to learn! All the punches life throws at you are really blessings in disguise! It can be figuratively, and sometimes very literally, as you saw! It shows, despite the punches, look at the hidden meaning behind them and learn from them! All you have to do is look, one way or the other, or maybe both ways before crossing the street of life!
Yeah right up there with "Don't believe in yourself. Believe in me! Believe in the me who believes in you" or "Don't forget. Believe in yourself. Not in the you who believes in me. Not the me who believes in you. Believe in the you who believes in yourself." >_>...
It is! Peter Cullen did the voice overs on the promos but the character TOM has been voiced by Steve Blum since 2001 or 2002, I forget which. He was originally voiced by Dan "Sonny" Straight (Krillin from Dragon Ball Z, Maes Hughes from Fullmetal Alchemist, Usopp from One Piece) but he got recast after a year or two because of logistical troubles so they killed off his version of TOM in The Intruder and it was replaced by Steve Blum's

I live by these Toonami speeches.
Their the father figure I never had.
Stay fatherless, or be the Dad you never had.
Same
I feel this man. I say similar things now to some kiddos I watch over.
Saying no father figure before it was cool.
*they're
Don’t cry that we’re no longer in this time. Smile because we actually lived it .
Thanks man 😢

“Fall down 7 times

If the world's not showing you hope, find it! Time waits for no one.
Toonami has some of the best speeches
I like that he said, "cry a little if you need to". That's not encouraged enough. Sometimes you just gotta cry. Crying is only bad if it's all you do. If you cry and don't solve the problem, that won't help you. Cry, then get up and solve the problem.
Man I remember this commercial 10 years ago when I had DirecTV, one of the greatest commercials on TV.
This couldn't have come back into orbit for me at a better time than this.. Tom's a legend
toonami is always there for us
i just helped an overly depressed friend by sending her this video today
How is she today
This helped get me through some of my anxiety and panic attacks which began in high school it’s not perfect now but 7 years later and I just got back from my first flight ever which I thought I’d never do or I’d never be able to do thank you Tom, toonami, and everyone.
Finding out he voiced spike and mugen makes him so much cooler
I so needed this for exams

For though a righteous man may fall seven times, he still gets up; but the wicked stumble in bad times. Proverbs 24:16
Let Jesus pick you up
Everything I have ever learnt in life was by these speeches
When no one else taught me
Toonami goated
Well said Tom!
I miss you Tom.
What voice at the end was saying "look up. be all that you can be." sounded like Goku but i doubt it.
This commercial saves me more than i can count through trying times
The single most based character in Cartoon Network history
This video saved me
Man toonami so dope especially back in the day tell me, what modern show gives inspirational messages with a sick character in between every break?
toonami is still out there in space lol
I'm sure Moltar would've said it best, too. (RIP C. Martin Cocker)
Tbh, Tom should have stuck with this 3.5 design.
You're goddamn right.
Yeah right up there with "Don't believe in yourself. Believe in me! Believe in the me who believes in you" or "Don't forget. Believe in yourself. Not in the you who believes in me. Not the me who believes in you. Believe in the you who believes in yourself." >_>...
when life gives you lemons give back life those lemons and make you if life then punches you in the face go super sayian and punch back
❤️🔥
and tom and sara
What anime is : Your resistance is futile.?

It was originally Peter Cullen… is that Steve Blum?
