This completely passed me by, as I recall I was on holiday with my family in the south of Ireland around this time and starting secondary school, but I must thank
90sDBZ and
EF2024 for pointing it out as I haven't seen any mention of it online.
Basically in 2005 Toonami UK stopped airing original Dragon Ball early in the year, Dragon Ball Z ceased to feature in regular reruns around the spring time at which point Dragon Ball GT had one more complete rerun that ended in the summer.
That said episodes of the series were featured in a marathon Toonami held. I did some digging and found the following schedule from a TV guide published the week of August 27th-September 2nd that year:
Sunday, September 2nd 2005
7am-9am : Dragonball Z : Animated Adventures
9am-10:30am : Dragonball Z
10:30am-1pm Dragonball
1pm-2pm : Dragonball GT
2pm-3:30pm : Dragonball
Does anyone remember this marathon? It is interesting the Dragon Ball Z listing from 7am-9am has the subtitle "Animated Adventures" whereas from 9am-10:30am it is just Dragon Ball Z. Were the movies rerun at this time? Are the Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball GT listings for the series or the movies and GT special?
Do you have any info about international non-English broadcasts about the Dragon Ball anime or manga translations/editions? Please message me. Researching for a future book with Dragon Ball scholar Derek Padula will be writing

Pretty sure newspapers gonna call it animated adventures in their listing it was just Dragonball z on the sky epg but I don’t know if they used the episode titles in the information box or the generic blurb for the show that had been used in the CNX days for the 1hr blocks.
