1->"In the anime series, it's usually [[TheChosenOne fate]] that sucks the kids into the nearest wormhole to the Digital World, gives them a few Digivices and Digimon partners, and sends them on their way. I came to this world first, alone, and purely by accident, and not even a [[TransformationTrinket Digivice]] in sight. But... This is where coincidence ends, and where destiny begins, [[TheUnchosenOne forged by our own hands]]."

4Brainchild of {{Cronosonic}}, this is basically what you get if you take a carbon copy of the real world, add a Digital World that has Digimon who believe that humans are fiction, keep some rules but break others, and then take the idea of humans being able to fight Digimon on their own from ''Anime/DigimonSavers'', add an intentionally simple [[CollectibleCardGame card game]], and run with it.

6Basically, ''Digimon: Another Time, Another World'' is a Franchise/{{Digimon}} ElsewhereFic of sorts, delving into yet another alternate universe.

8Meet Keith Windslow, a sixteen-year-old programmer from [[LandDownUnder Sydney, Australia]], who gets sucked into the Digital World purely by accident. He meets a Renamon named Vix, and the story kicks off from there. After a confrontation with a Devimon, his friends get involved, and more humans come through to the Digital World...

25!!Tropes found in this work:
26* ActionGirl: The girls are certainly not weak. Christa, Ada, Lisa and their partners take on Kimblee, an Ogremon who [[InformedAbility boasts impressive fighting skill]], and trash him. Lisa even fends him off single-handedly at first.
27* BattleAura: Remember Digisoul from ''Anime/DigimonSavers''? It's back, and the heroes are taking advantage of it. Keith decided to call it "Digisoul" because, while the dub name "Digital Natural Ability (D.N.A.)" ''works'', it's not nearly as badass.
28* CallingYourAttacks: Kept limited, but it is still there.
29* ContinuityNod: In a sense. The third chapter throws a rather large bone to [[CanonImmigrant Ryo Akiyama's]] [[NoExportForYou video games]]. In this particular universe, he's the Digimon equivalent of Hercules and Gilgamesh mixed together in terms of reputation, and the story of ''Brave Tamer'' is one of the Digital World's greatest legends.
30* CuteMonsterGirl: This is Digimon, for pete's sake. Vix is a prime example.
31* {{Determinator}}: Keith.
32* CyberSpace: The Digital World, naturally.
33* DubInducedPlotHole: The digivolutionary levels mess is discussed. Keith thinks names like "perfect" and "ultimate" don't make sense regardless. The Digimon agree, which is why they [[TakeAThirdOption renamed the last bunch of levels to something else entirely]].
34* FiveManBand: If we simply go with the humans...
35** TheHero: Keith, naturally.
36** TheLancer: James Kessal. More level-headed than Keith, and more of a planner. Christa also works in this role.
37** TheSmartGuy: Well, Jase and Lisa fit this trope the best considering a good number of the human cast are programmers.
38** TheBigGuy: Heath definitely fits. Roy fits because he's, well, ''fat''.
39** TheChick: Ada, definitely.
40* GenreSavvy: Keith. To top it all off, he's a troper!
41* HawaiianShirtedTourist: Shawn dresses like one.
42* HotBlooded: If not now, Keith ''will be''. The author will eat his hat if that somehow doesn't occur.
43* ImprovisedWeapon / ImprobableWeaponUser: As lampshaded by Keith, the card game also involves the use of the some of the most mundane crap imaginable. Of course, the addition of effects makes these items more usable, and quite often rather awesome if done right.
44* LandDownUnder: The stereotypes are lampshaded and discussed at times.
45* PostCyberpunk
46* PostVictoryCollapse: Kinda. Keith collapses (but stays conscious) after his first battle out of sheer exhaustion.
47* PrecisionGuidedBoomerang: The Cross Boomerang, yet another Franchise/{{Castlevania}} reference.
48* PurelyAestheticGender: Discussed.
49* ScrewDestiny: Or, according to Keith, screw any destiny not forged by one's own hands.
50* SempaiKohai: Keith uses 'Tai-senpai' it when addressing Taichi out of respect, because as far as he's concerned, Tai is his senior.
51* ShoutOut / {{Homage}}: To Franchise/{{Castlevania}}, Franchise/YuGiOh, Manga/FullmetalAlchemist, and Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann, among other things...
52* {{Shoryuken}}: A ''Digisoul'' Shoryuken. Hell yeah.
53* GogglesDoNothing: Like ''Anime/DigimonSavers'', averted.
54* ThePowerOfFriendship: Keith uses it, because being the GenreSavvy guy he is, he knows it will ''work'', though he geniunely believes in his friends.
55* TheUnchosenOne: Keith, and any of the protaganists, for that matter. There is no destiny or prophecy, or a group of "chosen children/Digidestined". So they choose themselves.
56* WhipItGood: Keith's main weapon. Often coupled with KillItWithFire for good measure. Shamelessly inspired by Franchise/{{Castlevania}} for the sake of RuleOfCool.
