Launch
AniNick PLUS launched on April 26, 2015.

Post-launch
On October 25, 2015, Curiousgorge66 Studios announced that they had temporarily acquired ToonNick International's 45% share of the channel until they rebranded ToonNick International as Curiousgorge66 Networks, which occured on November 1.

On December 7, AniNick PLUS rebranded itself.

In January 2016, Curiousgorge66 Networks announced that AniNick PLUS would be rebranding again sometime in 2016. On April 9, 2016, it was announced that AniNick PLUS would rebrand as AnimeNation TOO before June 31, 2016. The rebrand occurred on June 19, 2016.

In 2017, it was announced that the channel would be rebranded as SurgeAnime TOO in November 2017. Since November 2017, the channel has aired reruns of anime programming still showing new episodes on Nickelodeon Family and/or Nicktoons Family, as well as acquiring the broadcast rights to several anime titles licensed by NickFamily Licensing and/or NickFamily Studios.

The channel eventually rebranded as SurgeAnime TOO on December 2nd, 2017.

On March 29th, 2018, it was announced that SurgeAnime TOO on Nickelodeon Family, a three-hour block featuring repeats of anime shown on SurgeAnime TOO, will begin airing on sister network Nickelodeon Family in April 2018. Unless a rights-sharing agreement is arranged, no syndicated, non-first-run anime is shown on the block. Usually, nothing with a parental rating higher than TV-PG is shown on the block. The anime series shown are rotated every three months.

On June 7th, 2018, it was announced that, upon their removal from OrbitAnime, SurgeAnime TOO had secured the US broadcast rights to both Akiba's Trip: The Animation (whose broadcast rights would be shared with Nickelodeon Family's AuraNightfall block in the future) and Yu Yu Hakusho.

On July 24th, 2018, it was announced that Firebasket Studios saw interest in purchasing another 5% stake in the channel, bringing its stake up to 60%. The sale was completed on July 28th, 2018.

Due to the shutdown of the main SurgeAnime in the US and its replacement by Vision Cult, SurgeAnime TOO was rebranded as SurgeAnime Network on September 3rd, 2018.
