Description Hello, everyone! HeavyDaBoss here! And today, I'm going to be counting down the top 13 shows that I think would be perfect to air on Adult Swim. So without further ado, let's-a-go, shall we?

13. Starship Operators:
An awesome sci-fi anime from the 2000s that revolves around the cadets of the starship Amaterasu as they engage in war against other starships. Given that it is filled with great characters, awesome animation, and a truly dramatic-yet-great storyline with a perfect English dub by Ocean Group, I figured it would be a good sci-fi anime to air on Adult Swim, don't you think?

12. WWE NXT:
Given that me and TheShadowsega75 are both WWE fans, I think that WWE NXT would be a good live-action show to air on Adult Swim, for a good sports-based show that would appeal to the WWE Fans!

11. The Mobile Cop Jiban:
One of my favourite Tokusatsu shows from the Metal Hero series, this show can basically be described as a Japanese version of RoboCop! If Adult Swim could air this and the other Metal Hero shows, as well as any another Japanese Toku series, they could air them in Japanese with English subtitles, much like what some English-speaking channels in my country do with foreign language content.

10. Fairy Tail:
One of the best Fantasy anime shows ever, following the adventures of Natsu Dragoneel, Lucy Heartfilia, and their friends as they have adventures across the world. I think this anime, given it's a popular one along the likes of Dragon Ball Z and One Piece, would be a perfect fit to air on the block!

09. The King of Braves GaoGaiGar and GaoGaiGar Final (I decided to put both together since they're the same show and sequel):
Truly two of the best mecha Anime ever created in the history of mankind from Takara's Brave series. It's similar to Transformers, but much more hot-blooded and epic! It follows the adventures of Gai Shishioh, as he, with the help of the combining super robot GaoGaiGar, and the GGG and Mamoru, fight off against evil aliens like the Zonders, Primevals, and Sol Masters. Whilst GaoGaiGar got an English Dub by NYAV Post, only the first half of it was dubbed and the rest was subtitled-only! Perhaps they can get NYAV Post to re-dub the series and FINAL, or even better, get another dubbing group like Bang! Zoom Entertainment, Funimation, or Ocean Group to dub it and then have them air on Adult Swim. Wouldn't that be awesome?

08. The Transformers: Generation 1, Transformers Animated, and Transformers Prime (I put all three of them together since they're from the same franchise):
I've been a Transformers fan since I was a little kid and grew up watching numerous of the shows and have collected loads of the toys since I was a kid. These three shows are some of the best that I've known for years as I used to watch G1 on VHS and YouTube as a kid, Animated on NickToons (even though it aired on Cartoon Network in the USA), and Prime on DVD. Since Adult Swim already aired another mecha show with Peter Cullen in it in the form of Voltron, it would make sense to air Transformers too for all of the Transformers fans from the 80s and other years too like me to relive the nostalgia! Animated would air on the Checkered Past part, whilst G1 and Prime would air on the main block.

07. Ranma 1/2:
An anime that is one of the most well known Anime in the USA for years and a fave of mine too!Β Seriously, if there's one anime that Adult Swim needs to air someday, it has to be Ranma 1/2! It's a classic and awesome anime full of martial arts, comedy, and beautiful female characters, all of which fits within an anime that needs to air on Adult Swim! Plus, it became a cult-classic with anime fans in the USA since it hit the USA in the 1990s during the Anime boom alongside Sailor Moon and Dragon Ball Z, and if one anime by Rumiko Takahashi in the form of Inuyasha can air on Adult Swim, then maybe Ranma 1/2 can do the same! Make it happen Adult Swim!

06. Dokkoida?!:
One of my favourite animes as an adult. It's a fun and funny superhero anime about a guy named Suzuo, who meets a girl named Tanpopo who gives him a belt that transforms into the titular Dokkoida, and they fight bad guys! It truly is entertaining, with my favourite characters being Tanpopo, Sayuri/Hyacinth, Edelweiss, and Neuroloid Girl, and the voice-acting is spot-on!

05. The Daichis: Earth's Defence Family:
Truly a forgotten gem from Shoji Kawamori. A sci-fi anime about an ordinary family who become a group of superheroes and fight off aliens to keep themselves together! The show isΒ like a comedic animated sitcom that incorporates sci-fi and action themes into it, has a foul-mouthed young hero in the form of Dai Daichi (yet the dub tones down the swearing), and not to mention the adult humour, the detailed animation, the rocking music, and the beautiful adult form that Ellen Shiratori, my favourite character in the show, becomes in episode 13! It's all what you'd expect for an anime on Adult Swim, right?

04. Batman: The Animated Series, Superman: The Animated Series, Justice League, and Justice League Unlimited (I put all four shows together since they're all part of the DCAU):
Now I have these four shows on the list here together for VARIOUS reasons. The first major reason is to honour the one true Batman himself, Kevin Conroy. The second reason is because there's a new Superman show on Adult Swim in the form of My Adventures with Superman, which would make sense to air these. Finally, the third reasons is for the nostalgic value of everyone who grew up watching these awesome superhero cartoons in the past and witnessing the adventures of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter, Hawkgirl, and the other superheroes had, fighting against bad guys like the Joker, Lex Luthor, Doomsday, Mongul, Brainiac, Mr. Freeze, and Darkseid, getting involved in conspiracies, and saving the world! Plus, chances are if they do air, especially on the Checkered Past block, then perhaps we can see a new DCAU show airing as well! Wouldn't that be great?

03. The Angry Video Game Nerd:
Hear me out on this, I think the AVGN would be a perfect show to air on Adult Swim, with all the foul language, toilet humor, and crazy stuff going on. If they did air it, they could either keep the swearing in, or censor it, shorten the lengths of some episodes, and for the long episodes like Earthbound, they could be made as half-hour episodes or even movies in Earthbound's case! I honestly think it would be a great idea!

02. MEGAS XLR:
Truly one of the absolute best shows that Cartoon Network has ever aired. A classic show about a local gearhead and game geek named Coop, who, alongside his friend Jamie, find a giant robot known as MEGAS sent from the future in New Jersey. They repair it, and give it an overhaul, turning it into a super-powered, heavily-armed, fighting machine. Aided by a girl from the future known as Kiva Andru, they travel across the universe, fighting against the Glorft and other bad guys, all the while pop culture references are being made. I know it was stated that it couldn't be aired on Cartoon Network and Adult Swim after being cancelled, but think about it, the show is now owned by Warner Bros., meaning that the show is finally in legal hands, and there may be a chance for it to air on the Checkered Past block. If so, we could also see a third season of the show airing on Adult Swim, and that would be awesome!

01. Mobile Suit Gundam 00:
This anime is without a doubt one of my FAVOURITES these days and it's a show that needs to air on Adult Swim! Why? Because Adult Swim have already aired a few Gundam shows in the past, such as the original, Stardust Memory, Unicorn, and Iron-Blooded Orphans. Plus, the show is well-animated, perfectly voice-acted, and has an AWESOME range of both characters and episodes, with my favourite characters being Nena Trinity, Setsuna F. Seiei, Sumeragi Lee Noriega, Graham Aker, and Marina Ismail. So, please Adult Swim. If you can get the rights to air 00 like you did with the other Gundam shows you've aired, that would be great!

Honourable Mentions
*Toriko (They should've aired this instead of Food Wars)
*The Batman (2004) (Truly the best Batman cartoon next to The Animated Series)
*Batman Beyond
*Betterman
*Shakugan No Shana

Well that was the list, guys! Hope you enjoyed it!
