General Digimon Topic

We don't have it yet, so here it goes...

I like Digimon. Season 1 and 3 mainly.

Ironically I more then likely watched more of season 2 then either of those...ah the pains of watching anime on TV.

Big fan. If you guys remember old-school Digimon, you can try the fan quiz I made ten years ago:

I was the weird kid in school who liked it over Pokemon.

I haven't watched Digimon since maybe 2004-ish, but I still have a ten year old copy of the movie in my basement.

I was too! Although I never was really interested in Pokemon to begin with...

Stingmon.

coolest digimon ever.

That is all.

Alphamon disagrees.

As does Beelzemon.

Alright. How about one of the coolest digimon ever?

At the least as champion/adult levels go, you must acknowledge that he's wicked slick.

Everyone knows Omnimon is the greatest Digimon ever conceived.

Shotumon disagrees with all of the above on being the most badass digimon:

This isn't even supposed to be the final form for him yet.

And now I have yet another reason to want a PSP.

Why do I have a feeling that this won't get localized? T_T

Because a digimon that looks like a shitty toy robot is totally badass.

The #1 reason why I refuse to watch the new season, anyway.

More people need to watch Digimon X-Evolution, it's a really good movie without humans in it.

Digimen is my second-favorite Mon anime, after Gash Bell. It's actually arguably better-written than Gash Bell. The tendency to, every other season or so, give only one or two characters all the powerups irks me, though (is there a trope for that?).

I liked it as a kid though I liked Monster Rancher's anime more. I am not sure if I liked Monster Rancher 2 more than Digimon World 1 though. Both were pretty badass. Now I probably prefer Digimon World.

Only ever watched seasons 1 and 2. Both in Japanese and English. I prefer the English dub. Then again it does have all my favorite English V As and that goofy ass music...

Season 2 is the least popular season now, though that spot was season 4's for a looooooooooong time...

...?

I am not sure why I would care that it's the least popular, but ok.

Zero-Two's status as a scrappy season is undoubtedly people just realizing how crappy structured a season it is after their nostalgia-tinted glasses have worn off.

Tamers was one of those shows where I didn't like it too much as a kid, but as I got older, I began to appreciate it alot more.

Frontier sucks, but I do enjoy watching a few episodes from time to time.

And I haven't seen much of Savers/Data Squad in a long while.

Basically, it was like it didn't know where it was going. There were a million plots, many of which sprung up toward the very end, and it lent the impression that the writers were making it up as they went along. Add that to what many perceived as an anticlimactic Big Bad (though I personally thought he at least looked impressive), an arguably annoying main character, and having the audacity to canonize a pairing fans hated or at least regarded as crack from the first season, and you have a recipe for a critical disaster.

Nobody seems to dispute, though, that BlackWarGreymon was awesome.

I still liked what I saw of it better than the Pokemon anime.

when I was younger, my major problem with 02 was the World Tour arc. I hated how everyone in the world suddenly became Digidestined and completely cheapened the uniqueness of the group. Then I found more problems as I got older, such as not really liking the 02 cast as much, the two movies based on that season...

But yeah, Black War Greymon was awesome.

As for Frontier, while it is my second least favourite, I wouldn't really call it bad. I liked the new direction it took and the villains were cool and interesting (mostly, at least). I'd say that that season's just Overshadowed by Awesome.

Whatever flaws 02 has, just remember......

Stingmon was awesome.

I mean. look at him, how can you not think "Wow. That guy is awesome!"

Also, the second Angewomon/Ladydevimon confrontation.

Not as good as the first, but still a nice gesture.

All the seasons have had somethings I've liked.

Frontier probably has the least though.

Again I am not sure why I should care. I am also not sure what prompted that at all.

Eh, I was just pointing it out since you mentioned you'd watched it.

Ah. I see.
