Turner revealed in a press release on Thursday May 12th, that it has acquired the Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans  to air on Adult Swim.

The 25-episode series premiered in Japan in October, and ended with a teaser that it would return this fall.

Daisuki, Gundam.Info, and Hulu streamed the series as it aired. Crunchyroll and Funimation streamed new episodes one week after they aired. Sunrise (The Animation Team who brought us Outlaw Star, Cowboy Bebop, Tiger & Bunny, Code Geass, and InuYasha.) is producing the English Dub with Bang Zoom! Entertainment.

Straight from Toonami’s Facebook Page, the premiere date will be June 4th at 12:30AM and since Dimension W is ending its run on Toonami, we can expect this as it’s possible replacement in the time-slot. 🙂
