Digimon Tamers is largely considered to be the best Digimon Series- It is.
#Billiam #BilliamDigimon #Digimon - Ігри
I see everyone is asking when I'll be doing Frontier. I'm going to do Tri next so I can post a "Digimon Adventure" review compilation. Frontier will come shortly after
Billiam yay
I do hope that once you do finally get around to it, you don't end up being too harsh on Frontier, like many tend to be. Sure, it's different, and I myself would've liked it if they stuck with Partner Digimon (Digimon World 3's Kumamon AKA Bearmon, Kotemon and Monmon would've been great choices at the very least), but at least the writers tried to break new ground with it, even if it did end up falling a tad short of the glory; especially with its needlessly drawn out second half.
The tone of this review made it sound like Tamers wasn’t a good show even though it was the best out of the three but like I said you wouldn’t be able to tell from your review
Oh good, I don't see many people talk about frontier, I personally like it, but should like to see your take on it
When you do get to frontier, I'll be very excited to see your opinions. Personally I really liked it and I feel it's the second best one, but that may also be because it has several of my favorite Digimon.
Tamers, the show where the final arc is about how someone's digimon gets actually killed and her depression threatens to destroy the world.
Don't do depression kids.
Spoiler for last evolution kizuna
karakuri002 yesss
Woah! Calm down evangelion!
Digimon Tri?
I like how tamers introduce its core cast, not all being friends in the beginning but becoming friends through the series
exactly! just how real life is
To be fair the same applies to Adventure. The kids were in a summer camp together, they didn't actually all know each other. And they didn't even get along at the start. They stuck together out of necessity rather than friendship.
some of the characters knew each other before the start like sora and tai
Mosdra Kazuma Yeah but there were 7 of them, not 3.
To be clear, Tai and Sora are childhood friends, Izzy was aquainted with Tai through soccer, Mimi is Izzy's classmate, Joe was their group leader at camp, Matt just happened to be part of their group, and his parents arranged for TK to go to camp with him so they could spend time together or something since they didn't live together.
So the only ones who really already knew each other were Tai, Sora, and Izzy.
Every time Guilmon says Takato-mon, my heart swells up in warmth.

"But it's never depressing." Dude. One word. Jeri.
Dammit I repressed that...

Impmon's character arc is easily one of the best stories in the entire franchise
He's a redeemed character done right, who was willing to go as far as to die, to prove he was sorry and cared for others.
can't agre more
I wanted him dead, and that’s that

Weirdly enough, the 'digital fog' actually has a reason for existing. The designer for season three wrote far, far more backstory for how he imagined physics working in this world and part of what he fleshed out was the idea that the 'fog' is actually digital 'matter' seeping through cracks in reality. Digimon can only manifest in the real world once the fog saturates to a certain extent.
There's a whole lot of other stuff hidden in his notes and designs that bizarrely detailed for a children's show.
Sadly, he passed away a few years ago, so we won't be seeing more of this level of devotion to other works.
Shit, RIP to the good sir :\ Kid's show or not respect that he gave a shit to flesh out his work despite (from a business network angle) not realistically requiring the extra mile'.
Creative license; he embraced his.
It's basically reality warping so I'd say it makes sense.
Coming back to this comment, can you drop a source link? Wanna scour his design notes, whatever is available.
@@thehoodybadger3402 I read this too. I actually thought it was funny he pointed the fog thing out because when they fight the Devas, that automatically solved those concerns.
@@thehoodybadger3402 www.konaka.com/alice6/tamers/index.html
I'm surprised that no one ever talks about the adults that much, especially Janyu and Yamaki. Even they have their own development, having to accept the fact that they feel useless for a large portion of the series, and eventually prove themselves to be the one chance the tamers have to save the world.
Steve Blum said that Guilmon was one of his favorite characters to play due to his sweet and wholesome nature
He was so cute!
He also wrote the scripts in the dub.
It is interesting that the three leads represent the three ways most kids who had these things interacted with them.
Takato, the creative types, those would would make up their own digimon, or write long stories of themselves in the digital world. Always the heroes of their own stories, and thus, his relationship with Guilimon is less 'partner', and more controller, at least at first.
Henri, the caring types, the ones who play the game for the sim raising aspects more than the combat focused ones. They form a real bond with their mons, and see them as their actual partners, of course, this means they have trouble cutting loose and letting them fight, more often than not refusing battles.
Rika, the battler types, the ones who could care less about the mons themselves, as they're merely weapons, swords picked up from the pile, to be used and struck against an enemy, and thrown away when they become dull, this attitude actually driving her into the background of her stories, making Renamon the focus, and leading to the fandom having funny feelings about the fox(The voice and tone don't help there)
Mind, all three eventually grow out of these archetypes, and becoming fuller people because of it.
Huh. That's really cool!
and of course there's their overall relationship types:
Takato and Guilmon = Parent and Child
Henry and Terriermon = siblings
Rika and Renamon = uh...well...let's face it, they're more or less a couple in a romantic relationship
It's still crazy to me that Rika's development came from the realization that she was actually killing Digimon. And that because of an evil, creepy, murderous stalker.
In the german dub Renamon has in all its forms except fore Sakuyamon a really manly voice. Its a great performance and I found it fits perfectly.
+S3 Studios yeah IceDevimon was the best villain of the week, and possibly the second scariest thing in the franchise. A digimon serial killer (cause let's face it that's what he WAS) who personified the absolute worst Rika could've become...
what's astounding to me is that the dub didn't downplay this at all. He's CLEARLY a serial killer even if they don't say outright.
Terriermon is cuter than Pikachu
*CHANGE MY MIND*
I CAN'T CAUSE YOU'RE RIGHT
You right though
Momentai
Why would I change your mind when you're right
Why would I? I agree
One thing I also like is how the Digimon actually do match their tamers.
Takato is a child mainly so Guimon's forms reflect the things that children like. His first is a Kaiu like creature, his second is an awesome cyborg and his final is a heroic knight.
Rika is a very traditional Japanese with ideas of performance and succeeding. She also lives in a very traditional Japanese house with a quite conservative grandmother. I maintain the headcanon that she knows a lot of Japanese myths and culture. So Renamon's forms reflect that. The first is a Kitsume, the second is a toa monk and the final a budist priestess.
Henry is a foreigner with a far more modern view on things. Rather than just accepting the status quo like Rika he questions almost everything and is slow in making decisions. He also excels he modern tech. Therefore Terriermon's forms are a heavy set gunner, a sleek cyborg and a massively engineered war machine.
@David Silverman You can also see it when you compare Wargrowlmon to Rapidmon. They are both cyborgs but quite different. Rapidmon is sleek and aerodynamic. With weapons placed at every point where it wouldn't cause excessive drag. He's clearly made the stay at a distance and launch attacks. Using the delay of range to dodge the opponent's attacks and having such a high damage spread that the opponent can't do the same. He's a finely engineered war machine which fits Henry's analytical and technological nature.
In comparison Wargrowlmon is far more wild and somewhat sloppy. Mainly just taking the form of Growlmon and adding mech parts to it. The underside of the neck is made mechanic just like how a child would draw in those stripes. It also has several features like the axe blades and the large blasters that don't really work well together. It's mainly just a pumped up version of the regular growlmon. Exactly like how a child would do it. Come up with an idea and then just add to it rather than carefully think about how it's going to be fighting.
I do think Toamon is as human looking as she is because it's about Renamon fully embracing her relationship with the others and especially Rika. It happens when she is rejecting the idea that Digimon are superior so her forms is one made to harness the powers of humans. That it's a Toa monk is also fitting since that is very Japanese which suits Rika's idea.
These are in contrast to their champion forms. Gargomon is basically just terriermon with guns. Like Henry upgraded him. Growlmon is a larger Guilmon just like how a child would envision it. Renamon becomes a lot more animalistic because that's how Rika thought about Renamon at the time. Something important to her but more in the way of a pet than an equal.
Love your insights
@@MrMarinus18 you managed to put into words what I felt and knew when Tamers first came out. It's touches like these that really draw you in without knowing it.
Brother please learn to structure and better grammar if u gonna write whole pages. I think i had had a stroke trying to read it
That's awesome, my dude.
The character building in tamers is hands down the best in the whole series.I will fight for the death for this claim.
Put up your dukes then!
I never watched it but all 3 main characters looks cool n cute af, and the 3 digimons looks awesome(except the Agumon lookong)
Great show and I loved the story. Characters were amazing and relatable. Still doesn’t come close the original.
Agreed (even though I still don't like Rika...)!
@@kennymarket2428 in the profits that the first series is making to this day yes i agree but the story of tamers is way more serious than any series before tamers or after that
Always loved watching Tamers as a Japanese kid. It had a kind of subtly heavy tone that was very reminiscent of the post-bubble, lone, lost, coldness everybody felt back then and now; plus the writers didn't treat us like kids. Those were some people who actually took storytelling seriously.
Oh my God, that image of Gundramon. I didn't think it was possible, but they reached 110% gun.
Insert old meme: Yo, I heard you like guns!
He literally has guns for kneecaps... Can't really censor that very well.
Pokemon in the US: Bans an entire episode because of a Sheriff with a gun.
Digimon: Check out this cool Gundramon we designed though.
Also the weirdest thing of all, in Japan there was a crossover between Digimon and Bayonetta for their virtual pet anniversery and it was possible to get a Digimon called BelleStarmon which was a fusion of Beelzemon and Bayoneta lol.
"Russian Roulette is not the same without a gun, but since we're dubbed by 4Kids, we must make do without one. Sucks!" Joey Wheeler, YGOTAS.
For all of his specials, he wields *GUN.*
not gonna lie. the ending of Tamers made me cry. And if I rewatched it today i'd probably cry again. Btw, did anyone else expect Calumon to find it's courage and digivolve into something amazing? I always expected that to happen and to this day it frustrates me that it never happened.
Yeah, that always WAS a damn shame. Especially with that image casted behind him when he fully utilized his powers back at the Digital World.
Same! He was a little cute digimon shrouded in mystery, I expected him to have a digivolution arc just like Patamon did in the first season.
It's kinda ironic, don't you think. The Digimon that makes other achieve evolution, yet cannot evolve himself. But at least he's cute. He doesn't have to evolve to have my love.
@@Antyla Well it wouldnt make sense tho. After all calumon is just the digievolution power made digimon. Him evolving would be like evolution ¿Evolving?????????????
@@renjuno1991
I know, right? As far as I know, Culumon is the only digimon(in the series) that doesn't evolve. He even doesn't have an attack of his own. The Rule of Life in Digimon Tamers is "kill or be killed", and Culumon can't even attack to defend himself. The irony is very, very strong here. Thank goodness he has the Tamers to take care of him.
Impmon is my favourite character, and Beelzebumon is just the coolest.
The idea of more tamers sounds REALLY appealing and I would watch the hell out of it.
Impmon is my favorite to!!!!!!
Tamers is easily my fav
Hyurno same
Agree completely.
Its version of the initial opening is cool too. Frontier’s opening however is undoubtedly the best
i like them all (haven't actually seen the 5th or 7th seasons.)
one reason i like tamers is because the characters are actually more 'real' in a sense.
by real i mean acting more human and less than an anime character.
also in case you forgot, Zhuqiaomon is pronounced "zoo-CHOW-mon"
Tamers sucks.
Takato is also the first Goggle wearing Leader who's name is not changed or 'nicknamed' for the English Dub. Pretty cool, huh?
Ruki was change to Rika and Juri was changed to Jeri. Reasoning can be weird.
Isn't the emphasis placed differently though?
because its simple enough
Saw this and my thought was that because of Guilmon calling him Takatomon at the beginning they probably thought that changing his Japanese name into an English name probably wouldn't work.
David Silverman they did say the first. Takuya came later
Billiam: its not depressing...
me: (after watching impmon sacrifice and jerry crying scene) LLLLLLLLIAR
I mean It's not depressing it's sad, that's two different emotions
When Beelzemon killed Leomon and that was followed by Guilmon digivolving into Megidramon, I was like “shit just got real”
was a huge moment in the series .the series hit the next level with that scene
Bro i cried so hard at this when i was a kid
In the Japanese version, Guilmon and his evolutions are voiced by Masako Nozawa. Hearing Goku in Digimon Tamers was pretty wild.
cool dude Having Goku and Guilmon voiced by the same person is actually fitting given how similar they are.
MrEmpoleon2010 True! But Dukemon and Goku are played so similarly that I was pretty startled on my first watch-through, aha.
The twist is that Steve Blum voiced Goku in one thing: Dragon Ball GT: Final Bout for PS1.
Sam Slamdunk In Japanese, not English! Masako Nozawa voices both.
And actually, Steve Blum voiced Goku one time, in a GT game that came out long before GT came out westside. :P
KaroneRys Japanese, not English.
...So technically speaking you did hear Goku in some form. ;P
yo i just got teary eyed remembering the scene where takato was scared of losing guilmon b/c he was growlmon
And here I thought I was the only one who loved Digimon Tamers more than the others
Actually there's quite alot of people that likes Tamers, it's the ost liked digimon season
Are you kidding?! Tamers is by far the best season!!
@@DANGJOS yeah, that's your opinion though, I won't detail much since it'll only cause a stupid and useless argument but tamer isn't my favorite (I have only watched the first 3 season) and for now 02 is my favorite and adventure right after, they both have issues but they are still better then tamers personally, but that's my opinion
@@missing_data Yes, we have very very different opinions then. I feel the exact opposite. Season 2 is my least favorite season. The first half of season 2 was particularly painful because the Digimon emperor was the worst idea of a villain, in my opinion. The first half of season 2 is painfully boring! It does get better later though.
@@DANGJOS It seems we truly have opposit views, cause the digimon emperor is actually one of my favorite characters in all digimon, I can see how that part can be slow but as a viewer the fact that they dig in Ken's psychology like this is quite interesting, I mean the ending stuff of "I thought it was just a game" was a bit bad but I still think the emperor as a whole was an interesting character and story
Beelzemon using Fist of the Beast King while desperately trying to free Jeri is one of my favorite moments in TV period. I just cry every time. It is so good.
Impmon’s digievolution is my favourite moment in the series.
You see, animes like these (Pokémon, Digimon, Yu-Gi-Oh) celebrate the idea of friendship and team work as the integral stepping stone to become stronger. But here you have a Digimon who renounced his tamers and such ideology. He wanted to become stronger by his own terms, not to be held back by people who didn’t appreciate him.
So he made a bargain and achieved it. It may have been for all the wrong reasons, but by God, he did it. He stuck by his guns, and got even bigger guns! Eventually he reconnects with his tamers and works to regain forgiveness for killing Leomon, but the power he attained on his own was still there. It was never stripped away from him or looked down upon, neither did it paint him as a weakling. If anything, that form he achieved is enhanced when he reconnects with his Tamers. The symbolic nature of it doesn’t go away.
I relate with his struggles to want to desperately achieve your goals by your own volition. These animes construct an unrealistic ideology of the power of friendship and team work being the end all be all to all of live’s problem, but the real world isn’t that simple. Impmon’s struggles to digivolve all alone with his initial nihilistic views was compelling, because it was actually challenging these preconceived tropes for once in a meaningful way.
Fractorification when the soundtrack kicks in as beelzemon evolves into blast mode i always tear up a bit
That's just one reason why Impmon is such a GOAT character.
Tenryuunaito Is that a bad thing?
Fractorification The people of Deviantart and Furaffinity would disagree... you know that right?
Of course not.
As a kid this was my favorite season. It was real, it was, gritty, and some of the most badass Digimon, like my favorite Beelzemon. He was freakin metal🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
watching tamers as a kid felt really strange and kinda depressing, but it was sure impressive!
spot on! .. wonder why no one's described it like this before
one thing i especially like is that the cards mean the tamer actually contributes something in the partnership, where as in previous seasons the humans really just act as a sort of unexplained power up to the digimon here while they are still a power up they can take a tactical role in what that power up is
The human partners supplied energy to their digimon tai was often just as tired as Agumon for a lot of the season because he helped fuel the digivolution it's explained better in later seasons/other media but the first two seasons didn't show that to well
@@obsidianfrost9514 ya but just being a power source isent really meaningful contribution storywise
@@seelcudoom1 To call the kids in Digimon a "power source" is dumbing it down quite a significant amount, honestly. It was always more about the bond they shared with their Digimon partners than anything else, as they had a lot more emotions and character traits that could be more easily expressed by the simple fact that they could actually talk in a way the audience could understand, which helped to give their relationships more depth. It was always because of that fact that the Digimon in the series needed their human partners to digivolve, as it would otherwise take them a lot longer to achieve that power naturally without them, as is able to be seen with Impmon in Tamers; but regardless of which series we're talking about, it's the bond they share as human and Digimon that gives them their power
@@matthewkuscienko4616 i mean ya from a character writing aspect that works fine, but it still means that during any actual fight there literally just standing around
Tamers is undoubtedly the best. I was absolutely obsessed with it as a kid. The character growth of the main trio is staggering, and it's reflected in their Biomerge Digivolutions (Takato going from a meek kid to a gallant knight, etc.). It has a ton of iconic moments, and the D-Reaper has always seemed like the most menacing, realistic final boss in the series.
thewhatness eh I feel data squad is better
I'm not sure about tamers being the best, as I think Adventure has its strong points too, but Data Squad is *definitely* not better than tamers.
Ulfrey I disagree, data squad feels more well real, it feels like how humans would react to these monsters
thewhatness Tamers was shit. Adventure 01 is best
KarnRulez um no?
Remembering Bealzemon using Fist of the Beast King made me tear up... that was such an iconic moment.
I love that they changed up the formula by only having 3 main characters, supplemented by the really great supporting cast. It’s a really interesting solution to what 02 struggled with.
One of 02’s issues was a character development imbalance that made a few characters stand out, at the expense of pushing supposed main characters to the wayside. Most people’s first thought to fix this would be to revert back to the series roots, and have a full cast that gets equal development. But Tamers took that flaw and turned it into a strength.
I think the key lies in the side characters. They’re colorful and likable with their own character arcs, but it never takes over the story. It doesn’t feel weird or out-of-place to go several episodes without seeing the side characters, which makes the times they do show up more impactful and memorable.
This allows more focus on the main characters, which in and of itself was a ballsy move. The main 6 had to be very strong characters, and they delivered. They struck the perfect balance between main and sub-plots.
But Juri was a side character and her depression took over the whole sbow at the end!
Name: terrimon

I like the Tamers season a lot, but the arc about the D-Reaper actually scared me when I saw it for the first time.
Lanette Lassiter to be fair I think it was sorta meant to a bit haha
Bad Dragonite Good one lol, and I agree
For someone who was scared of Darth Vader and The Wicked With, the D-Reaper didn't scare me. Don't know why.
Lanette Lassiter The creepy Juri clone creeped me out more than anything else. I still find it unsettling.
TEEEEERRRRIEEEEEE
as a kid i never liked this season much, cuz i didnt like them abandoning the 01 cast which i loved and it felt too dark and serious for me .
which is funny since now as an adult i can really see how good this season actually was
i always find it funny how on hindsight renamon was lucky having all her transformations being amazingly well done 2d animations while the other now have awfully outdated CG that is laughable
bocodamondo gotta admit at least that Dukemon's Biomerge js great though, the only CGI evolution that brings me hype everytime I see it ~
bocodamondo The CG is not outdated. It was only good for when the season aired.
Tri's CG is even shittier in a way.
Zavier lol no
I think I heard that the only reason some Digimon got CG evolution sequences was because they couldn't 3D animate hair/cloth very well. Both very central to Renamon's evolutions. It was much easier when the entire digimon was a hard surface type, like Gallantmon, Megagargomon, Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon. Not sure if this is completely true but it would make sense why Renamon was left without CG evo-seqs, something I'm very happy with now in later years.
I agree with Zavier that Tri's cg is worse, can't really put my finger on why but it looks so weird. Maybe it's because the old cg looked like a computer rendering of an evolution while the cel-shaded evolutions of Tri looks like it's trying too much to be 2D for it to work?
i am glad that tri opted out not to have the ultra and mega evolution be CG too and instead go for 2d animation, said 2d animations arent nearly as good as the tamer ones though
How was it only during this video that I learned Gundramon was a thing?
Like, I love Digimon because it's a show ostensibly about kids with giant monsters but it turns out to (usually) utilize that a vehicle for character exploration-- Tamers was the one that did this the best and its psychological themes and aspects of surreal horror elevated it to by far my favorite of the Digimon seasons.
But I got *into* Digimon because *fuck yeah giant monsters* and they're like *real* monsters with all these bulging veins and organic shapes and toothy smiles and weird ragged claws and you can get the cute ones but then they turn into giant towering beasts that shoot missiles at each other and it's *sick*. And while now, as an adult, I really appreciate its thematic resonance (Tamers especially had a lot of influence on my own writing in that regard) I'm still super excited to know that there's a Digimon that's literally a dragon made out of guns. Just straight-up a pile of guns that are in the shape of a dragon.
God I love Digimon.
It's my favorite season. I love how Digimon Partners interact with each other's partners and got it's own subjects and stuff, a thing that never happens on the other seasons. For gods sake, Takato gets separeted from guilmon for like half of the digital world arc! Now that's a thing!
Half? It was only 3 episodes that they were separated from each other.
And pretty sure Digital World Arc was more than dozen episodes long.
I just watched the japanese version of the show last month, and I just wanted to make people aware that the voice of Guilmon in Japanese was also the voice of Goku.
Just Saiyan.
heck you
Christ alive!! Guilmon has popular voice actors in BOTH major regions!! He's Goku in Japan, and he's Spike in America. And Toonami's TOM. And Transformers Rescue Bots Heatwave. And Transformers Prime/R.I.D. Starscream. And the Countershade from Might No. 9-you do realize I'm just going down his IMDb page and listing the most notable ones to me, right?!
Ceruliver oh it’s a girl?
Nice play on words! 👍
Guilmon is an OC DO NOT STEAL
It's true, Takato drew him and he came to life, he was born an OC.
Lol. He technically is. I've never thought about that.
I did not think about that
It's funny because it's true!!
It actually isn't, Guilmon appeared first in the Core World.
Impmon had an amazing arc. Him going apeshit and risking his life to save Juri and using fist of the beast king was awesome. I also like how it was a lot serialized even in the 1st act where it is just setting everything up you get snippets of future plot points and plenty of set up for later on
The reason impmon is my favourite character
4:52 "Y'all are nasty" LOL
All Rule 34 jokes aside, Renamon is my favorite partner Digmon because she's damn powerful, even as a rookie level. Confident and powerful, what's not to love.
Renamon killed like a 100 digimon, that's why it was THAT strong.
Uhm. Then tell me, why Renamon has a male voice in the german voice over.
Patrick v. M. I watched tamers in German, I’m thankful of that, and I thought of Renamon as he. And than his mega level happened.
Im just confused when people talk about renamon as she😂 until mega level all his states looks like male
@@Kaatze14 well basically digimons are genderless
Herovadam i know that, since they basically are data’s or something like that. I go after the voices the Digimons has. And as a child I said he or she when I was talking about them and that sticks
Fun fact: The writer for Digimon Tamers is famous for writing Serial Experiments Lain and Texhnolyze- two other pretty dark series that have underlying themes of human interaction with technology.
Angel Flores a lot of the VAs in Lain are also in this too!
Loke Phoenix In fact, Juri/Jeri and Lain share the same English VA. Which is pretty frickin wild.
Angel Flores It is also hypothised that Tamers place in the reset world of Lain.
Guilmon: I love the kind of woman that can kick my ass
Takato: Wait, what'd you say?!
Grizzly Bear Guilmon is too innocent to say that.
imagine him saying that to Renamon

Been revisiting Tamers this year since it's the 20th anniversary. While I also am more attached the Adventure+02's ensemble cast that we were allowed to see grow up to adulthood, Tamers is probably my favorite season lore wise and pacing wise. You summed everything up really well. Love that you touched on the stuff that really made it special like the slice of life problem solving with existing with digimon, and Jeri and Impmon's character arcs. Chiaki Konaka still loves this series very much and I'm so glad he made it. And Steve Blum's dub really was, apart from a few iffy bits, extremely good. I got the chance to talk to Steve Blum at a convention once and he still loves this season. He did clarify that the jokes in the digimon dubs were pretty much mandated by the network so it's great he was able to preserve as much of the script as he did.
I loved this serious both as a kid and now. It was so intelligent and we'll executed. Although a lot of people hated Jeri, I loved her. The contrast between how happy and sweet she is in the beginning vs. dark and depressed she comes is so powerful
Small trivia, the English dub completely changes the end of Henry's character arc with a single line change. Upon learning what his dad did in order to save the world, the original show has him forgive his father, understanding his perspective and bringing the two seemingly closer in that moment. The English dub implies he doesn't forgive his father for what he did, driving them only further apart and seemingly ruining what was left of their relationship.
He eventually did forgive him tho
Not sure which direction I liked better with that though, because I like both: the concept that signified the growth and maturity of Henry and the understanding and love between him and his father vs the concept that explored emotions in that not everything may or even will be automatically forgiven when the hurt is too raw and personal, even when reason and logic were on the other person's side.
Tamers was probably the darkest Digimon season.
And its geat.
Cybershroom It's garbage
Data squad was more dark in my opinion, but tamers come in 2nd . Ps : my favourite is xros wars :)

@@KarnRulez If Tamers was garbage I don't know what word should I use to describe the seasons after it.
TakatoEndou Not garbage?
Dude the ending....made me cry, this was my favorite season gilmon is my boy
I loved that you play the Tamers advertisement in this.I remember how excited I was for Tamers because of the turn it took from the original 2 series. It felt mature and that the show was growing with me. I just loved that dark turn in the end of Tamers too. I mean, the ending wasn't perfect but it made me feel so many emotions at the time. I still love it.
Tamers is the darkest and best written one, with most depth. But Adventure is the soul of Digimon
@@BasedVegeta true, i think they mean that without adventure the series wouldn't have a basis to root off of.
I remember rewatching this out of curiosity when I was 12 or 13. I was honestly shocked at how good it was, and I make a habit of rewatching it every now and then.
Also, Guilmon in this show is the most adorable lad ever~
I freaking love him. Something about his whole thing makes me wanna hug this adorable lad~
Right!
I think one thing about Terriermon and Lee's relationshionship that gets forgotten is that Lee didn't start as a pacifist. He straight up pushed Terriermon to his limits, almost killing him and then cried when he realised he could lose him. When Terriermon realises it's because he can't bare to see Lee cry. Which makes Lee kinda feel worse. He pushed this program baby to its limot and found out it is not only alive but sentient. Hes incredibly protective of Terriermon for that reason
I've always been a Pokemon girl myself but I can say that Digimon has always beaten Pokemon as a show because it isn't afraid to shake up its own foundation.
Digimon: "Every iteration will have a different story path with fundamental changes to the combat system and new lessons for the characters."
Pokemon: "Hey kids! Do you want to watch Ash go to a region with Pikachu and a rotating cast of humans to collect 8 badges, get harrassed by Team Rocket every episode, and then lose in the semifinals of the Pokemon League for the 100th time?!"
Seriously, I can't tell if I'm annoyed with the Pokemon series for never innovating their concept or if I respect them for remaining true to their target demographic.
Sun and Moon isn't about collection badges the Battle Frontier wasn't about that Pokemon shaked things up twice
Uh it kinda is they just changed the name of it

Fun fact. Digimon published their first wave of Vpets a year prior to the release of Pokemon red and green/blue
No. Red and Green came out in 1996. Digimon came out in 1997.
The Pokémon anime began in 1997, yes.
Someone voicing what I've wanted to say for years! This show has had such an effect on my love of storytelling and character writing (What with Henry's control issues, Takato growing into his leader role and anxieties, Rika learning emotional maturity and openness, Jeri's...Jeri.) I love Adventure don't get me wrong, but Tamers is always my favorite and it's a friggin masterwork on Konaka's part.
Weird I dislike it for the same reasons, but the growth of the characters feels forced/sudden in some aspects(where Rika learns to be people, but wavers into normal useless sidekick territory at random), and the Digimon especially were flat.
It's really bizarre because you have Impmon and his character arc is both spanning and fantastic but everybody else comes off a little under the Adveture kids when Adventure had more kids to work with.
Then you have wastes of cool characters/ideas and yes Guardromon/MarineAngemon and their respective partners added so much to the series. The main three got very basic characterization I don't why they couldn't have as well.

@@geniusbob >A little under the Adventure kids
You mean the same kids that just have one-two episode development arcs and then they came back to their usual selves? Heck, even the development of the Digimons in Tamers is far above the Adventure cast
@@cuervodepoe8739
Aside from you not paying to Adventure it's really easy to point out where that's wrong, because Guardromon/MarinAngemon/Terriermon/Guilmon exist.
Anything not Impmon, really, but it's a common mistake that "spanning" story arcs that are forgotten within one episode of passing are somehow better than mini arcs that do the same.
Adventure was't amazing about it, but despite having more kids to cover they still ended up more people.
@@geniusbob Paying atention*
Guilmon was a Newborn who gets carried away by his instinct which led Takato to face several problems apart from the digimons.
Terriermon could be as friendly as cocky and sometimes he gets carried away a lot by his instinct as in the chapter that he digivolves to Galgomon.
Special mention to Renamon(she questions herself a lot if it´s fine to have a Tamer and even interacted with other Digimons and Tamers like henry) and Lopmon(An ex-deva that betrays her group to protect a little child that was lost)
Both the Tamer and the Digimon end up evolving (both figuratively and literally) and they are an important part of they development for the other.
Outside of Catmon(Tailmon), the relationship between the adventure kids and they digimon end up being something more than just "you fight i watch?. And outside of Tai, Matt and Sora the rest of the Adventure kids´ development don´t go far away of be a problem for one episode not even a mini arc and even some of them doesn´t have any Development at all like TK, Kari(and she gets like 85% of attention in the Myotismon´s arc) and Mimi
I don´t say Adventure is bad is just that it doesn´t have anything to do next to Tamers
I loved Digimon Tamers. It felt more mature and realistic, with an edgy side to it. Loved it. Would watch it again. In fact, i will do it right now.
Rule34 had it's fun with this season...
Lol

Konaka has already pitched a proposal to Toei. In a tweet translated by Onkei, he said "But I hated just waiting and leaving it all to luck, so I threw in a bomb (known as a proposal) at relevant offices yesterday on the day of sale release. While there's a hard chance of success, I thought that there was a need to make it clear that I wanted to do it. Currently, this is the most that I can do for now."
TabbyCat you mean for a sequel? That would be my wildest dream

BUT TAMERS IS SO GOOD
Brilliant theme tune
Even today, Tamers is probably one of my favorite anime, due to how dark and deep it is. There are so many production-notes available online that give a deep insight into just how much thought went into this show, including even photos of real-life locations that were used in the show, along with their anime-counterparts. And as someone else in the comments mentioned, the fog might first seem like lazy writing, but according to the production-notes from the creators, it served the purpose of allowing Wild Ones to materialize in the real world.
And of course, Guilmon's second evolutionary form, Megiddramon, nearly destroys the entire Digital World simply by existing, which is something no other Digimon in either series even comes close to achieving.
If they were to make a sequel to Tamers, I would definitely hope that it would be of the same production-quality as Tri, but retaining Konaka's darker and more psychological thriller/horror inspired style. Although it's kind of hard to follow up Tamers properly, after the D-Reaper...
Tamers is a show very near and dear to my heart. The way Konaka took a fantasy series and transformed it into sci-fi with grounded characters is just incredible to me. Plus I was the type of kid who would create my own Digimon/Pokemon, so I related to Takato on a very real, borderline uncomfortable level. And BioMerging is one of the best, thematically appropriate things to ever come out of a Digimon show. It's just... so good.
Plus JesuOtaku's review of Tamers is one of the first in-depth reviews of a show I ever watched, and all of his insight and research into the show blew my mind at the time.
One thing I'll add that you don't touch on too much is the contrast between the Digital World and the Real World. The Digital World is like some sort of dystopian hellscape, where everyone is out for themselves and they're willing to destroy anyone that gets in the way of their goal (reaching the Real World). Then they reach the Real World, and the influence of humans really has a very profound effect on many of the partners, most notably Renamon (which is also why Guilmon's contrast is so stark).
Sydney Dunaway I despise Tamers.
Cool.
You would think Digimon would be sci-fi as a given. It strangely isnt nor has been since tamers.
@@KarnRulez how hard-working of you to try and shove your puny "opinion" into like 2 or 3 other people's comments that I've seen here expressing their love for this series. You don't sound like you're stating your opinion, you sound like you're just looking for attentions.
@@KarnRulez why the hell are you even watching this video then?? I don't like sports so you'll never see me watching any videos about it. Don't go out of your way trashing other things that people like just because you don't.
Shit... now I want to rewatch Tamers.
*Boots up Crunchyroll*
In 2020, this makes me sad because crunchyroll doesn't have it anymore
RubyCoolGuy FinalForm why would they remove anime?
RubyCoolGuy FinalForm I got some good news for you all! The English Dub for Digimon Tamers, along with Adventure, 02, and Frontier have been added to Hulu!
@@BBlader I wouldn't call that necessarily "good news." Hulu probably just nabbed the rights to Digimon after their Crunchyroll contract expired, or just made a better deal to the publisher. For consumers, all that means is that they didn't have it for a couple months and it went on a completely different service.
@@nyahnyahson523 Where can I find the Japanese version?
I loved adventure /02... But man watching Tamers was literally what made me love Digimon completely as a kid.... I watched everything going forward but I regularly go back and re-watch Tamers even now as a 30-something adult and I can say it does hit differently and you can see things from different perspectives.
I watched Tamers in German in my childhood and only now I notice that Renamon does not have a male voice actor in English.
Fun times, dear furries.
I think German is the only language that gave Renamon a male voice... Not complaining, the voice actor was pretty good. He somehow conveyed emotion with a monotone voice, it fit Renamon great.
Nope By us to
Uhm i guess I kinda know, why they made renamon male in germany. Renamon got a female tamer... u got me🤔🤨😉.
Anyway, if sth doesnt fit, then rule34 is just going to make renamon a shemale with boobies and penis. Or they give him/her a dildo to use.
They are creative trust me.
@@patrickv.m.7209 Juri had leomon
I remember being really annoyed at Tamers at first, as it completely abandons everything created by Adventure (and Adventure 02, which tbh, I didn't like much at all even as a kid). Nowadays, Tamers is definitely my favorite season of them all, mostly because it feels so real and grounded, but still has this feel of adventure that Adventure 02 completely lacked for me (lol getting out of the Digiworld by free will).
The interesting thing about rewatching Tamers for me is that Jerry (She's named Jen in the german dub, so this was a little weird xD) keeps being exceptionally creepy to me, even in the regular every day scenes in the first 3rd of the series. In the first episode in particular, when she jokingly scolds Takato, we never see her face and she lets her dog puppet bark at him from behind the door at the end of the scene. I actually felt the dread I remember feeling when I watched the D-Reaper arc as a kid - and lo and behold, then I remember that D-Reaper digs up that exact scene from Jens memories way later, so my reaction suddenly makes sense. That part genuinely scares me. Digimon Tamers might just be the only non-Horror series that managed this. Hell, even horror movies don't haunt me for that long...
JoJoX200 Tamers is my favorite too.
i remember feel same thing when i was child in my language dub(brazilian portuguese) every character sounds so realistic always when takato cries i felt bad for him especially d-reaper arc. One thing i love about portuguese dub version is they keep original japan soundtrack. Thats my favorite opening always.
Omg I remember that scene,I was terrified and didn’t know why and thought,is she evil?
I felt exactly the same. I stuck with it despite the frustration that it did not connect to the previous two seasons.
I don't remember when I realized just how GOOD this series really was, but it was sometime before my rewatch a few years back. After rewatching it I can say it is by far my favorite of the Digimon series. Although I feel none of the other series are without their legitimate complexity, especially compared to what amounts usually to extended ads for toys, this season definitely attempted to be both complex and artful, not JUST giving us characters that grow but also exploring concepts and conditions of society and the human psyche. It's also the most stylish and allegorical, especially its final act, with the grotesque aesthetics of the D-Reaper and fusions of human and partners being true standouts.
Its not without its share of problems of course. I felt the middle half from about just before the 12 Digimon started appearing up until they entered the Digital World took a step backward in terms of storytelling. It may have been for the purpose of later subverting your expectations as when they are transported to the Digital World the series goes full Dark mode and never lets up. But it still dragged a bit too long for my liking, and felt very Digimon lite, like the earlier parts of the first two series. Suffice to say this is the part that felt most like an ad instead of a fully fleshed out story.
yea man the german dub is magnificent. Every voice fits perfectly. And the voiceactors seem to take it seriously even tho its a "Kidsshow" also they did some great soundtracks and opening in german. Damn that brings back childhood memories.
C'mon fan, Konaka isn't that hard to pronounce :"D
also i wouldnt be worried about a Tamers sequel if he's behind it, the guy is no sellout.
I'd be hyped
Is the first syllable Cone or Khan?
Is the second syllable ah or uh?
Is the third syllable kah or kuh?
I personally think it is Cone-Ah-Kuh
Since it's Japanese, it would be pronounced "Koh-nah-kah."
I'd be pretty buzzed for a sequel to Tamers some time in the future, actually, especially if Konaka is behind it.
Dappis I agree that it was off putting watching him struggle with a very easy to pronounce foreign name. Was that just supposed to be a joke?
That's exactly right. Obvious by how he says "Konaka" right after, but couldn't fucking say "Chiaki" and was able to say the character's Japanese names.
12:46 Great now I'm imagining Guilmon telling Renamon "Love the kind of woman who can kick my ass"
Funny thing is in the German dub Renamon had a very manly voice. Only as Sakuyamon it had a female voice. Its funny how a voice can make a Character seem either feminine ore manly.
I could never imagine Guillmon saying that.
thank you for doing these. im a really emotional person and just the slideshow of al lthe clips brings me a lot of joy to revisit.
“Y’all are nasty” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that had me dying for hours
yeah everyone's pitiful discussing humans for a great Fox Digimon character renamon I like her as a digimon because she has a good voice acting and and a sweet yet cool y'all nasty
Tamers was my favorite season of digimon. I loved Jeri and the fact that when Leomon died he wasn't just reborn like in Adventures and 02. It had weight to it. Like when Angemon died it felt heavy that TK's partner was dead... and then he wasn't and everything was okay. Then they tried to make it a big deal in 02.. but again he was just reborn. He had all his memories too of TK so there was no weight to it.
"Y'all are nasty."
Truer words have never been spoken.
Honestly, this was my favorite digimon series. And yes, it was really weird.
Tamers was dope
Technically, Rika is not an antagonist. She's just an anti-heroine.
She starts off an antagonist at first
@@SonofSethoitae Not really, an antagonist directly opposes the protagonists of the series. An anti-hero would compete with the protagonists, sometimes involving confrontations. Rika fits more as an anti-hero as she competed with the other kids, but never really made plans to go after them. She happened to meet both Takato and Henry and spontaneously decided to challenge them. After that, she never really concerened herself with them. Instead she would just try to defeat and load a digimon before anyone else could.
@@SocraticMayhem Wrong. considering the nasty remarks she made and actively trying to destroy Takato and Henry’s digimon, she was an antagonist. She had to grow a heart which was a plot point. Anti hero’s don’t develop like that.
The D-reaper was a counter program that was meant to limit the evolution of the digimons when they were first created. Whatever made the digimons capable of evolving to what they have become also affected the D-reaper to become sentient.
I actually met Steve Blum!
He signed my Tamers DVD, I got my picture with him, and I got a recording of him using his Guilmon voice!! I was so happy that day!
I'm so glad you discussed Digimon Tamers! Also I didn't realize they censored the gun sounds with laser sounds in the english version (I guess thats one way of censoring stuff)
Be glad that was the only thing they pretty much censored, because america has a bad habbit of censoring a lot of things for Japanese anime and that always ends up badlly.
At least it's not a BomberNanimon/Citramon level fiasco. >_>;
The funny thing is I would argue using lasers is *even more dangerous* than bullets. No ammo, pretty guaranteed piercing through an entire target, possibly little recoil...it's funny because the only reason you'd censor a gun that way is because it's more realistic and unsettling while lasers make you wanna be in Star Wars.
Tamers is my favorite season, it's so goddamn good! Like way more than it had any right to be be. And the English dub is fantastic, being voice directed by Mary E Mcglynn! Both her, Melissa Fahn and Steve Blum appear, it's such a great cast.
I would die for a proper sequel!
Who Dat Ninja Tamers was awful.
KarnRulez LoL just stop
Tamers has a flawless dub.
This was the Digimon series I grew up with, not Adventures. Its Japanese version is fantastic, especially the music (still have Card Slash, EVO, One Vision and The Biggest Dreamer on my iPod). I love how they dive into the characters' psyche and relations, address each one's inner problems and show imperfect, very human characters (the Megidramon evolution is still hard to watch). But you're right, it never gets too dark: there are jokes, goofy moments here and there and conflicts do get resolved. My favorite scene, the one that still gives me the chills, is when Beelzemon goes full Blast Mode. Complete with awesome music it's incredibly cool.
Who else recently started watching Digimon in their late 20’s and realizing how awesome this show is??!
There's a reason why Tamers is oft stated to be the best series; it's written well (especially compared to other toy-driven series), by one of the best writers in Anime. Character development is actually present, as opposed to the other, 'characters are essentially glorified tropes' in other 'mon series. When it's good, it's damn GOOD. When it tries, it's near perfect in what it wants to portray. I just wish it was less inconsistent in its quality over its 50+ episodes.
Louie Hills its unfortunately marred by executive meddling.
He also stated prettt openly that he was influenced by Evangelion, and after seeing the characters anxieties, fears and interactions, as well as the end villain, I'm happy that it was.
Louie Hills Except Tamers is the worst season
KarnRulez probably only watched two episodes back in 2002.
bgpeters22 Nopd, watched the entire thing twice, when it aired and when it was on Netflix. It sucked
Easily the best Digimon series, by far. Much better than Frontier (AKA: Mighty Morphin Digimon Rangers) and Data Squad (AKA: DAMON PAWNCH!!!).
I never watched the other series afterwards, so I can't make a judgement on them.
Holy shit! Its you!
How would you feel about a Diddy Kong Racing sequel that added characters from My Hero Academia, Little Witch Academia, Kirby, The Amazing World of Gumball, **Persona 3-5,** Family Guy, Sonic, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Digimon Tamers, The Simpsons, Invader Zim, Pokemon Sun and Moon anime including Serena from X and Y, Crash Bandicoot and RWBY with Haruko from FLCL, Hat Kid, Popuko and Pipmi from Pop Team Epic, Bomberman, Doom Slayer, Beavis and Butthead also being there? Kirby gets pushed as a second Protagonist to go along with Diddy Kong.
Imagine racing against Akko with Izuku, shooting a missile at Gumball, Gumball, Izuku, and Akko smoking pot with their friends, throwing an oil slick at Ren, Ryuji using a bat to knock opponents sideways, Ann using her whip to whip a nearby rival, Yusuke asking Momo if she’d be painted nude, Fregley putting his foot in his mouth to distract the other drivers so they can crash, Futaba showing everyone rule 34, Makoto dodging bombs that Bomberman planted on the race track, etc.
Tamers sucked
Digimom rangers is pretty good too. At least in the Japanese dub (Digimon savers). It took the idea that the kids are part of the fight and amplified it. The pacing is a lot like Digimom Tamers as well. It also gets pretty dark in some parts.
You should try digimon universe aka yokaiwatchmon
I'm a big fan of Ryo and can tell you that without a doubt, he is the same character from the Wonderswan games, he is canonically the same Ryo from 02.
At the end of Digimon Brave Tamer, Ryo feels so betrayed by everyone in the Adventure world that when given the choice to stay in the Tamers world or go home by ENIAC, he chooses to abandon his previous life for this new one.
As we have learned from Tri, Homiostasis is able to affect the real world, so its speculated that ENIAC, who is the original god, brought Ryos family to this world.
It would explain why Ryos parents arent mad at him but mad that he acts like it isnt a big deal, and why his father is so upset to begin with.
Ryo isnt just in the 2 second backstory clip, hes one of the kids watching the fight in Our War Game. His partner in the games is Monodramon and later revealed to also be Milleniumon, Cyberdramon is the DNA Digivolved form of the two.
I was 7 when I watched this show. 3 memories in particular standout: Takato's transformation into the Knight Digimon and how futile it felt in the grand scheme of things (this show had a very heavy atmosphere); the final villain whose conception always eluded me as a 7 year old and the ending with Takato discovering a gate to the digital world. The ending had me on the verge of crying for multiple days after it ended, probably the only time a show had done so.
Man this show rocks I can't tell if I love this show over digimon adventures
David Brown I definitely remember this being the season I was most emotionally invested in, but that may have been judt because I was older when it aired.
melanomalous I hated this season then and now. Adventure 01 and 02 are best

Does anyone remember Monster Rancher?
I remember playing monster rancher 2 on the ps1 and going through all our cds to summon monsters. Incidentally, the anime was shown here when the game is in the heights of it's popularity.
Yea, i had the game, played it a lot till me monster died and that made me so mad i quit. I was pretty young then. The anime was shortlived but kinda fun. The eye thing was stupid but the Wolf was a total badass.
Back then internet wasn't used by many so there were no FAQ's or CD lists. You just had to try every CD you could find and hope it was a good monster. There rumors about spefic CD's with special monsters but i never had any rare CD's.
There were at least 73 episodes of the anime/cartoon. And the main reason Suezo was a main character was because that was the monster you found if you used the Game Disc.
@@LodanSD did you watch the entire series? Cause I finished recently it's pretty good but it has some mix ups / wrong move names being done
The thing I love about this series is that you can create your own digimon. I also love how they added the mythos for the devas later on in the series. And the story about the creation of the digital world. It’s weird that the d reaper was an environmental enemy and the kids were really saving the environment instead of just saving the world

Man, I remember watching this show as a kid. So much nostalgia...
Seeing your series retrospective in my recommended is literally what got me to rewatch the series, ya know, just for nostalgic fun. But when I actually went to watch digimon's first season it was significantly better than I ever expected it to be. I had never seen past season 2 because something just didn't click with me growing up going straight from season 2 to tamers, so I never really got more than around 3-5 episodes in. But now because I got sucked into this fandom I decided that I want to give each season a try and this one was amazing to go into completely blind. If I hadn't seen your video in my recommended I don't know if I would have ever discovered how much of a gem this show truly is and certainly never would have discovered tamers. When I finish the rest of the seasons I definitely plan to watch that retrospective, but until then I'm still going through the series blind. But yeah, just wanted you to know your pretty much the reason I'm a digimon fan today :)
