Oh i hope it does, i seen an advert of this and it looks pretty cool.

Please stop posting in old topics. This was made 2 years ago. Blue Dragon already aired on Cartoon Network, and it did so poorly they dropped it without completing it. The rest was aired online on Toonami Jetstreams website before Toonami was shut down.
