i think it's a tough question because while i feel that there are a lot more actual good animu series (in number), they're usually a lot longer too, so more time would be used up. that being said, most animes ive enjoyed the most were the shorter ones, anywhere between 15-25 episodes (bebop, flcl, gurren lagann, madoka, champloo)

i'm probably gonna have to go with anime though. i don't think there are any cartoons that i really want to see that are on my list or anything, but there are good 10-15 animes that ive been told i need to watch and a whole bunch of other ones that i'd probably rewatch, so that could at least act as a sort of 50-episode buffer of shit that would make the 100-series trek more bearable all around

Hard to choose really, there are so many great cartoons and anime. I'd probably pick anime since most of the cartoons nowadays are utter gutter trash.

anime

that being said, i prefer tv-drama (breaking bad, dexter, etc), but each episode of those is 50 minutes long and to watch a full show usually means 60 episodes รก 50 minutes would take up quite a while. Most animes on the other hand are shorter, usually around 20 episodes (although there are ones with 300+ episodes and whatever, but it evens out because there are others with 3-7 episodes).

So yeah, anime just to save time!

This is a tough one, there are good bad for both anime and cartoons, but I would probably have to go with cartoons due to the following:

Ed Edd n' Eddy opening - HIGH QUALITY (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujL4lr-7edI#)

Animaniacs Intro (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KA0TS9l_nJE#)

Bugs Bunny Albuquerque (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8TUwHTfOOU#)

But in all honesty, I would rather have 100 of anything that aired on Toonami.
