@@SeisTavanel I mean, Shakkoumon makes sense if you think about it hard enough. Its materials represent both paleontology and religion, so the fusion has to represent archeology.
It's funny how back in the '90s and early 2000s, ultra-religious types were saying Pokemon was satanic or whatever, but here was Digimon letting you raise certain cute critters to become demons, angels, & eldritch beings, as well as making references to the number of the beast in the anime. It would've been hilarious to have seen their reactions to Shin Megami Tensei. Which is suprisingly the originator of Mon collecting genre.
Well, not because it was Satanic, because there weren’t any depictions of demons or witchcraft, but because it referenced evolution, which is the predominant “how we got here” theory among atheists and other science-based belief systems that contradict Christian beliefs. Magic: The Gathering and D&D were the popular franchises that had to deal with Satanic Panic. Especially D&D.
@@pn2294 in the 90's the Digimon anime rivaled Pokemon a lot well Pokemon was always more known i guess but digimon was by all measures Popular and in the early 20's while it lost hype most people still know it as far as i know but the second one might be more of a social bubble thing
Most weapons in digimon are made by Vulcanusmon (one of the Olympos XII) who names all his creations after plants/food in spanish. Berenjena (Eggplant) for Beelzemon, Bellota (Acorn) for Ghilliedhumon, Zanahoria (Carrot) for Sparrowmon, Oro Salmón (Gold Salmon) for Astamon, Rizoma de Loto (Lotus Root) for BeelStarmon, & Pepino (Cucumber) for BeelStarmon X.
Wouldn't say most weapons, since it's been only guns he's made But possibly might've made Voltobautamon's weapons His swords Spiedeni(skewers) and his guns Ala di Pollo (chickenwings) Problem is that they're Italian instead of Spanish
They laugh, but Lucemon in his debut appearance and when he transformed fucking soloed all of the protagonist, his minions and the world. He kicked ass!
Lilithmon was broken in Cyber Sloots. One of the biggest INT stats in the game, Strong tier pierce move (Phantom Pain) and the Ara Ara voice line she sometimes does when doing it *chefs kiss*
The funny thing about Daemon's name is that Creepymon is only his localized name in one of the games. He's referred to as Daemon properly in his debut anime
I love that not only did he make a Seven Deadly Sins reference, he used the wrong character and sin, cuz Meliodas is Wrath, and the gigachad Escanor is Pride.
Love that you did this. Sucks that the last secret member of the Demon Lords didn't show up, but I'm sure you got that for another quiz. Also, I heard that Dinosaur King, and I approve of that being a potential quiz.
"Pandemonium Lost" might actually be a pretty clever reference to Paradise Lost. In that work, it is proposed to Lucifer that, though they have been cast from Heaven, he and the demons that serve him could still build Pandemonium--a paradise within Hell, that could be their own kingdom. Lucifer, however, was not willing to accept his lot and rule in Hell, and brought about the Fall of Man instead, and was punished for it. Thus, the loss of Pandemonium can be reasonably interpreted as the consequence of Greed.
Funny trivia, in the german version I saw he was called "Demon" too. They actualy went against the grain for once, ignored the MURICANization, and stuck with the original. Also, Leviamon would be replaced today by Incelmon based on your description.
4:45 ... If that's a motherfucking Sho Minamimoto reference, I am going to make it my personal mission to ensure that no one is going to find enough of you to bother burying...
Lucemon Fall Down Mode is pretty on the nose but it also makes sense since the Baseform is the Rookie Digimon Lucemon who is a very benevolent Digimon that has incredible power (easily taking out Mega Level Digimon by hurling planets at it). Lucemon Falldown mode is its Ultra Level that can (in most version) only be reached once Lucemons Powers get to its head and it give into its prideful side. It also has to my knowledge no Champion form and just goes from Rookie straight to Ultra Level.
Damn. With showing the other forms of other Lords, I was hoping Lucemon: Satan Mode was shown. Not only cause I just think it's a great design, but just to see their reaction to it literally just being called Satan Mode. Also the little fun fact that, when Lucemon used Paradise Lost in Frontier, he literally exploded 2 moons as he pile drived one of the protagonists.
7:02 that makes sense, but I always thought Leviamon was Gluttony, for probably obvious reasons and beelzemon was pride, probably at least in part because of Tamers.
they are based off the actual demons of christian/demonology lore: Lucifer: pride. Mammon: greed. Asmodeus: lust. Leviathan: envy. Beelzebub: gluttony. Satan: wrath. Belphegor: sloth. they just swapped Lilith with asmodeus cause Lilith is satans wife
I admit gluttony can still make sense for Beelzemon since he has a hunger for power and respect in Tamers. Plus he goes crazy with absorbing data from other Digimon while he’s on his power trip. But I can still understand feeling Envy would also fit.
Robot Masters quiz would be quite fun, especially as a not-Mega Man fan being able to play along. If you wanted another Digimon quiz suggestion (and even if you don't) the "recolors" could be fun (for example, Kyle/Nico don't read: Tsukaimon, Doumon, Saberdramon, Cthyllamon, Piddomon, etc.)
Dang, since he showed the two Belphemon forms, I was kinda hoping he would briefly show every single Lucemon form just so they could be confused why one is an angel bug thing. Also wish he mentioned that Lucemon's pile drove two of the protagonists in Digimon Frontier so hard he blew up the goddamn moon.
Belzemon's guns are namend Gerenjena (Eggplant) because the grip is eggplant-shaped, kind of like old revolver, but are single handed twin barrel magical shotguns.
Beelzemon's gun is in refrence to cutting an eggplant and it looking like the barrel of a shotgun. It's similair to the name for Beelstarmon's gun being a root.
Oh yeah the demon lords this is going to be great but I can't wait for the Olympus 12 also THE FIRST QUESTION LOL that's the type of digimon images I'm here for images designed to piss of Tyler and nico
I looked up beelzemon shotguns berenjena it does mean eggplant in Spanish but the eggplant is named that because in Latin it means black beauty which sounds better properly was the original intended name but they had no idea it meant eggplant 😅
Well well well… I wonder how you’ll all react to this set of demons. They are a fan favorite series of Digimon and each of them are actually quite well integrated since the 7 deadly sins are a very popular trope to use in Japanese media. Kekekeke I’ll be honest, what I have here is more fun facts. I have so much more to say when you actively try to piss the squad off. Question 1: Alright, ya threw me off there by bringing back fricking Xros Wars, the anime series that made jobbers out of some actual noteworthy digimon… Fanglongmon being a mount is just disrespectful. Now, back to Lilithmon… she does exactly what you think, seduces her enemies with lustful magic and them stabs them with her hidden claws, which rots the body from the inside out. Great Digimon in Cyber Sleuth games due to just how powerful piercing is and the fact that you can team her up with teammates that boost Dark damage. Lilithmon is very active as a standard villain in a lot of media. Of course you get the standard video game bosses, but she has appeared in Xros Wars as a major antagonist, Ghost Game as a monster of the week and part of a storyline of many JP only games. Ofc when her whole team shows up, she does too, but she seems to have one of the longer lasting roles in the series compared to her peers. My guess is that they could make her somewhat like Rita Repulsa for the enemy squad of Xros Wars. Question 2: Beelzemon is a fan favorite and well, his showing in the anime really did make him a very good character with an arc you follow. You understand him and that made him so cool to the kids in the world. Often, Beelzemon is the token good Demon Lord. He is still entirely evil, but has somewhat of a moral code. He will not fight those who won’t fight back or won't give him a good fight. In a way, he actually has some positive representation of Pride in his character, which does confuse people. I explain that the Demon Lords represent the negative aspects of their sins. Beelzemon is a bit of an odd man out in that respect too, but that makes sense in a way. Older depictions of Beelzebub had him as the sin of Pride. So this mix may not be entirely unplanned. The best I got for Gluttony is that it did come from his anime appearance where he would get a kick out of just absorbing the data of his slain foes. Question 3: Ah Barbamon. He is exactly what you think he is. He is pretty much an old Jewish miser stereotype reconfigured into a mastermind of the Demon Lords. He is good at being a dealmaker demon like those “deal with the devil” stories. The skill in which he can manipulate even the most crafty of demons makes him a very good character to use as the ultimate mastermind of a story, which he was used for in Digimon Next. He is incredibly greedy and guards his hoard of treasures with his powerful attacks. I mentioned before that his demonic form is a reference to a jewish stereotype. Big nose, greedy etc, but in accordance to Christianity, I give this a pass. His name is from Barbatos, a demon duke of the Ars Goetia. While the demon known for the sin is Mammon… but funny enough a Mammon already exists and is known as Mammothmon, so I understand the alternative name. Barbatos is known to make deals with his summoner and can grant you the ability to talk to animals. His other power is to allow you to access treasures that have been sealed away through magical means. This is partially why in some pieces of fiction like the Shin Megami Tensei series has him as a common demon that you can blackmail or coerce for a ton of money. A note on his attack is that there is another Digimon called VenomMyotismon who fans know as a terrifying entity that was the final boss of the penultimate arc of the original show. VenomMyotismon uses the attack Pandemonium Flame which is noted as only being a fraction of the power of Pandemonium Lost. So while he is usually a schemer, he can actually fight back if his plans fall apart. I’ll be honest though, I think they didn’t do something like Dissenter’s Flame was for this reference and the fact that another Demon Lord seems to primarily have fire attacks. Question 4: Belphemon, the Demon Lord of Sloth and is basically a giant hulking Baphomet. I love this guy’s design, especially Sleep Mode where the Alarm Clock is actually a lock that keeps it asleep. When it awakens, there have been cases where either the Alarm Clock is the cause or the signal that the beast is about to awaken. Speaking of Cyber Sleuth, I actually evolved my starter into this fluffy sheep. His snores legit can cause you to fall asleep and never wake up. And this is when he is pretty much harmless. What happens when he wakes up is shown in the Data Squad season where he is the final boss of the first major arc. It is assumed that due to the irregular way he was woken up, he was not even at full power in that season. I did some digging and couldn’t really find anything on why Dark Sigh was called Lampranthus. I assumed it could be used to make a drug to help with sleep, but it is used for many things besides that. My only guess is due to how it grows. The Lampranthus is a succulent, growing in various ways with sharp leaves. One way it grows is a patch of shurbbery. When ready to flower, it blooms all at once with enough flowers to cover the entire plant. I guess that is how the dark flames form. Question 5: Man Creepymon is such a bad name for this guy. Demon is not much better, but it is at least on the nose. If you guys are interested, his sprite in Digimon World DS makes him look a bit more threatening. He represents Satan, the Demon Lord of Wrath and his story is similar. There is a “god” of the Digital World that the angelic Digimon worship. The Demon Lords are said to have fallen and was granted incredible power derived from the deadly sins. Demon wanted to rebel against the angels and was defeated, sent to the Dark Area (aka our recycle bin) because he was too powerful. Nico and Kyle would be glad to know that he does fight like a wrestler, using hammer blows and grapples. Like Lilithmon, he shows up in a lot of media. He was part of an aborted arc in the 02 and it really felt like his inclusion was cut short. His biggest appearance for non JP fans is from the V-Tamer manga where he is a big bad, rallying an army to conquer both worlds. His other appearances are pretty much name drops. Question 6: Leviamon is sadly the only one of the 7 that I think has had no representation outside of when they are presented as a team. He legit had a cameo in Xros Wars where they were able to summon a hologram or something to have it use Rostrum on an enemy… honestly… fitting. He can stay envious of his peers. I do really like him as a non humanoid member. Leviathan as the Demon Lord of Envy is a title that is sadly just unexplored due to how little personality he gets other than a hungry beast. For many, Leviamon and Beelzemon should have swapped their sins due to this. His moves all have latin names. Rostrum, Anima, Cauda, Duo Cauda are all very self explanatory, which fits him very well as the supposed simple muscle of the Demon Lords. His entry may be a bit vague, but from what I understand, his mythos is that he is so goddamn big that the world itself doesn’t have the RAM to fully let him exist, so he sits underwater allowing his aura and influence to corrupt everything. Question 7: Ah Lucemon. Lucifer himself with 3 modes. The instigator of rebellion and an individual with contradicting facets. What we have here is Falldown Mode, a being so powerful, he is considered the leader of the 7 even though he is only an Ultimate. His immense power is so legendary that when he was a Rookie level, his special attack surpassed even archangel Digimon. Being the main villain of Digimon Frontier, fans of the series saw how powerful he was even when he was in a lower form. Xros Wars also had him as a servant of Lilithmon… which utterly contradicts what I just stated. Note: did not expect the utter vitriol that 7DSs elicited from the others.
24:20 I don't know this digimon but I do think it has a shell... it's his stomach if you look at it closely enough it's got that sort of pattern to it.
I'd love a MegaMan quiz also that leviamon art really doesn't do the size of his mouth justice all the other art out there shows it's like half his entire length
I wonder how y'all would react to Duel Masters. edit: preferably the early stuff, as later stuff is Japan exclusive and doesn't give af about proper card spacing.
A cubix robots for everyone quiz would be pretty cool actually now that its been brought into the world. Code lyoko quiz though... fighting foodons, medabots
I think a megaman quiz could be pretty fun, but i specially recommend using Mythos Reploids because of how stupid those names can get, also maybe that one "secret" boss from X3.
Bandai Namco's favorite group to antagonize in the Anime and Manga. Is also interesting that the whole group acts like when you force the students that hate each other so much that they wouldn't hesitate to make the others lose in purpose. Like is also interesting that even they are shown as the villanous in the Anime and Manga. In the Video Games (at this point the products that took the Anime's throne) they are portrayed interestingly as some like Lilithmon being defeated in Savers Another Mission by accepting her or in Re:Digitize Decode that Lucemon was forced to be Falldown and Satan Mode.
Here’s an idea for you to use, the guys have to guess which 2 digimon are needed to get the shown DNA digievo
That would be worth it even if they only did the 02 DNA digivolutions because of shakkoumon
@@SeisTavanel that’s one of the ones I was thinking of lol
Yes. This please XD I want to see them suffer XD
@@SeisTavanel I mean, Shakkoumon makes sense if you think about it hard enough. Its materials represent both paleontology and religion, so the fusion has to represent archeology.

Only popular stuff gets criticized
No one cares about obscure stuff

Berenjena (Eggplant) for Beelzemon, Bellota (Acorn) for Ghilliedhumon, Zanahoria (Carrot) for Sparrowmon, Oro Salmón (Gold Salmon) for Astamon, Rizoma de Loto (Lotus Root) for BeelStarmon, & Pepino (Cucumber) for BeelStarmon X.
Also Beelzemon is Gluttony because he's a glutton for power.
That is excellent trivia
Wouldn't say most weapons, since it's been only guns he's made
But possibly might've made Voltobautamon's weapons
His swords Spiedeni(skewers) and his guns Ala di Pollo (chickenwings)
Problem is that they're Italian instead of Spanish
maybe not all but certainly a lot of them, for some reason.
The one weapon I know that breaks this convention is Shoutmon’s microphone, which is product for sale made by the McField brand
They laugh, but Lucemon in his debut appearance and when he transformed fucking soloed all of the protagonist, his minions and the world.
He kicked ass!
Creepy on has two localization names. The other one is Daemon which I use cause I don’t acknowledge Creepymon as it’s name.
Creepymon will not be denied!

Lilithmon was broken in Cyber Sloots. One of the biggest INT stats in the game, Strong tier pierce move (Phantom Pain) and the Ara Ara voice line she sometimes does when doing it *chefs kiss*
A classic case of "I use her for the stats, mom! She's just really good!" and you're actually telling the truth
Too bad she died to 3 Aeroveedramons before having the chance to do anything tho. PVP was fun in that game. XD
3 ulforce veedramon and the game goes brrrr
Swiftness from AeroVee/UlForce got nerfed in HM so in modern PVP shes niche but decent
And?
The funny thing about Daemon's name is that Creepymon is only his localized name in one of the games.
He's referred to as Daemon properly in his debut anime
I love that not only did he make a Seven Deadly Sins reference, he used the wrong character and sin, cuz Meliodas is Wrath, and the gigachad Escanor is Pride.
Could've included Ogudomon as a bonus, would've been interesting just to see everyone's reaction towards the design.
>changes to creepymon to avoid referencing demons
>Skullsatanmon is fine
... Yep, that tracks.
Also, toss in support for a MegaMan quiz
We have to get Magnamons original attack name in one of these quizzes cuz it's ridiculous and really funny.
Why settle for regular Jihad?
Love that you did this. Sucks that the last secret member of the Demon Lords didn't show up, but I'm sure you got that for another quiz.

Also, Leviamon would be replaced today by Incelmon based on your description.
Hope yall grow. Love yalls digimon and yugioh content
Daemon kept his name in the localized anime for whatever reason.
Lucemon's attack was Paradise Lost Punch.

Bancho video when!? Banchi video WHEN?!
How about a Megaman X, Zero, and ZX Maverick/Pseudoroid quiz?
til tyler does not know that phantom pain is a concept that exists outside of its use as a metal gear title
I had to do a spit take at Leviamon's "Double spinning edge" answer. I've played too much xenoblade to know where that's from.
Now you got to do the olimpus 12
Damn. With showing the other forms of other Lords, I was hoping Lucemon: Satan Mode was shown. Not only cause I just think it's a great design, but just to see their reaction to it literally just being called Satan Mode.
Also the little fun fact that, when Lucemon used Paradise Lost in Frontier, he literally exploded 2 moons as he pile drived one of the protagonists.
Feels weird seeing a digimon quiz where neither nico nor kyle were angry at the end.
7:02 that makes sense, but I always thought Leviamon was Gluttony, for probably obvious reasons and beelzemon was pride, probably at least in part because of Tamers.
I always read Beelzemon as envy and Leviamon as gluttony so I guess I just swamped them, Beelz couldn't be pride because Lucemon is always there.
they are based off the actual demons of christian/demonology lore:
Lucifer: pride.
Mammon: greed.
Asmodeus: lust.
Leviathan: envy.
Beelzebub: gluttony.
Satan: wrath.
Belphegor: sloth.
they just swapped Lilith with asmodeus cause Lilith is satans wife
I admit gluttony can still make sense for Beelzemon since he has a hunger for power and respect in Tamers. Plus he goes crazy with absorbing data from other Digimon while he’s on his power trip. But I can still understand feeling Envy would also fit.
Dude, I would honestly be down for a megamon quiz XD
I love the Digimon videos, keep 'em coming! Oh you should do a video with jogressed / xros'ed Digimon, and guessing which Digimon they're made of
I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE a Mega Man quiz!!!

If you wanted another Digimon quiz suggestion (and even if you don't) the "recolors" could be fun (for example, Kyle/Nico don't read: Tsukaimon, Doumon, Saberdramon, Cthyllamon, Piddomon, etc.)
Why did he say Meliodas for Pride when he’s Wrath and Escanor is the Lion Sin of Pride?
They said that weren’t fans. Their knowledge has gaps.
24:10 as a Xenoblade fan, I immediately was suspicious it was fake and one of Rex attack
Love the Lust SIN reference immediately. More love for Blazblue.
Dang, since he showed the two Belphemon forms, I was kinda hoping he would briefly show every single Lucemon form just so they could be confused why one is an angel bug thing. Also wish he mentioned that Lucemon's pile drove two of the protagonists in Digimon Frontier so hard he blew up the goddamn moon.
missed potential for Satan Knee vs Heaven's Knuckle
Me too...
So happy to the sins represented! The fans of digimon have seen the knights represented and a whole season with the 12 sovereign, but never the sins.
That might be true for the anime, but they appear a lot in the games as antagonists and secret bosses
Belzemon's guns are namend Gerenjena (Eggplant) because the grip is eggplant-shaped, kind of like old revolver, but are single handed twin barrel magical shotguns.
Excited for this big, fun video! Thanks for uploading! Looking forward to whatever you do!
Beelzemon makes sense because he loves killing other Digimon and absorbing their data
To the point of making food jokes about it
I can confirm: I hate you guys so much that I love you and watch every single video, sometimes twice.
That is all we can ask for
Lol i only knew lillithmons move because i mained her for cuber sleuth for while
You guys should do a Bionicle quiz
Too bad we didn't go with Lucemon's normal mode, Larva Mode, or Satan Mode
Beelzemon's gun is in refrence to cutting an eggplant and it looking like the barrel of a shotgun. It's similair to the name for Beelstarmon's gun being a root.
Oh yeah the demon lords this is going to be great but I can't wait for the Olympus 12 also THE FIRST QUESTION LOL that's the type of digimon images I'm here for images designed to piss of Tyler and nico

Hey guys happy Glaceon Day.
I think a quiz where they figure out DNA evolutions would be cool
Lust: Florist
Gluttony: Heiress
Greed: Doctor
Sloth: Editor
Wrath: Farmer
Envy: Artist
Pride: Officer
Very accurate
Have they done a video on pokemon card attacks? I think it would be funny guessing the cards move.
I looked up beelzemon shotguns berenjena it does mean eggplant in Spanish but the eggplant is named that because in Latin it means black beauty which sounds better properly was the original intended name but they had no idea it meant eggplant 😅
Also tidal wave is waimons move which is usually it's pre evo.

Question 4: Belphemon, the Demon Lord of Sloth and is basically a giant hulking Baphomet. I love this guy’s design, especially Sleep Mode where the Alarm Clock is actually a lock that keeps it asleep. When it awakens, there have been cases where either the Alarm Clock is the cause or the signal that the beast is about to awaken.
Speaking of Cyber Sleuth, I actually evolved my starter into this fluffy sheep. His snores legit can cause you to fall asleep and never wake up. And this is when he is pretty much harmless. What happens when he wakes up is shown in the Data Squad season where he is the final boss of the first major arc. It is assumed that due to the irregular way he was woken up, he was not even at full power in that season.
I did some digging and couldn’t really find anything on why Dark Sigh was called Lampranthus. I assumed it could be used to make a drug to help with sleep, but it is used for many things besides that. My only guess is due to how it grows. The Lampranthus is a succulent, growing in various ways with sharp leaves. One way it grows is a patch of shurbbery. When ready to flower, it blooms all at once with enough flowers to cover the entire plant. I guess that is how the dark flames form.
Question 5: Man Creepymon is such a bad name for this guy. Demon is not much better, but it is at least on the nose. If you guys are interested, his sprite in Digimon World DS makes him look a bit more threatening.
He represents Satan, the Demon Lord of Wrath and his story is similar. There is a “god” of the Digital World that the angelic Digimon worship. The Demon Lords are said to have fallen and was granted incredible power derived from the deadly sins. Demon wanted to rebel against the angels and was defeated, sent to the Dark Area (aka our recycle bin) because he was too powerful. Nico and Kyle would be glad to know that he does fight like a wrestler, using hammer blows and grapples.
Like Lilithmon, he shows up in a lot of media. He was part of an aborted arc in the 02 and it really felt like his inclusion was cut short. His biggest appearance for non JP fans is from the V-Tamer manga where he is a big bad, rallying an army to conquer both worlds. His other appearances are pretty much name drops.
Question 6: Leviamon is sadly the only one of the 7 that I think has had no representation outside of when they are presented as a team. He legit had a cameo in Xros Wars where they were able to summon a hologram or something to have it use Rostrum on an enemy… honestly… fitting. He can stay envious of his peers.
I do really like him as a non humanoid member. Leviathan as the Demon Lord of Envy is a title that is sadly just unexplored due to how little personality he gets other than a hungry beast. For many, Leviamon and Beelzemon should have swapped their sins due to this.
His moves all have latin names. Rostrum, Anima, Cauda, Duo Cauda are all very self explanatory, which fits him very well as the supposed simple muscle of the Demon Lords. His entry may be a bit vague, but from what I understand, his mythos is that he is so goddamn big that the world itself doesn’t have the RAM to fully let him exist, so he sits underwater allowing his aura and influence to corrupt everything.
Question 7: Ah Lucemon. Lucifer himself with 3 modes. The instigator of rebellion and an individual with contradicting facets. What we have here is Falldown Mode, a being so powerful, he is considered the leader of the 7 even though he is only an Ultimate. His immense power is so legendary that when he was a Rookie level, his special attack surpassed even archangel Digimon.
Being the main villain of Digimon Frontier, fans of the series saw how powerful he was even when he was in a lower form. Xros Wars also had him as a servant of Lilithmon… which utterly contradicts what I just stated.
Note: did not expect the utter vitriol that 7DSs elicited from the others.
24:20 I don't know this digimon but I do think it has a shell... it's his stomach if you look at it closely enough it's got that sort of pattern to it.
Barenjena is a play on barren and Gehena (another name for hell)
27:44 the funniest part is that he fucked up the reference. Meliodas is Wrath.
I did not expect to get Double Spinning Edge'd on a Digimon video holy. I choked
I'd love a MegaMan quiz also that leviamon art really doesn't do the size of his mouth justice all the other art out there shows it's like half his entire length
also known as daemon with an a
Missed opportunity to name the move Piledriver Lost.
We need a 7 Deadly Sins Quiz for Tyler KEKW
I thought paradise lost was a postal 2 reference.
I wonder how y'all would react to Duel Masters.
edit: preferably the early stuff, as later stuff is Japan exclusive and doesn't give af about proper card spacing.
Tyler here - I absolutely LOVE Duel Masters. It's possible I may put a quiz together for the other fellas someday if enough people ask for it.
Megaman quiz would be cool ngl
Got to love that they are talking about demon lords and Kyle shouts "Meliodas" for pride...... when Meliodas was the Dragon sin of Wrath
So its not Demon but Daemon which is actually different
It feels off when it doesn’t have a bonus round
Hey guys any plans to try the digimon tcg? I feel you all will find it pretty chaotic and fun 😁
A cubix robots for everyone quiz would be pretty cool actually now that its been brought into the world. Code lyoko quiz though... fighting foodons, medabots
Also, leviamonbor however you spell his name does have a tidal wave attack. Atleast he does in the anime.
Tidal Wave is also the signature move of the Digimon Whamon.
Mad Props to Kyle for being the funniest
this was the greatest episode ever
When you said double spinning edge i could only think of rex from xenoblade
26:35 just got to this part
Kongo Bancho was low key lit
I think a megaman quiz could be pretty fun, but i specially recommend using Mythos Reploids because of how stupid those names can get, also maybe that one "secret" boss from X3.
I really wanted you to show Lucemon's other forms 😅 they're so... different
You guys should do a Yo-Kai Watch quiz
Hell yeah a Megaman QUiz. BUT do the battle network version so that Tyler might participate maybe.
27:00 Oh, yeah. Meliodas, the famous sin of PRIDE.
Bandai Namco's favorite group to antagonize in the Anime and Manga. Is also interesting that the whole group acts like when you force the students that hate each other so much that they wouldn't hesitate to make the others lose in purpose.
Like is also interesting that even they are shown as the villanous in the Anime and Manga. In the Video Games (at this point the products that took the Anime's throne) they are portrayed interestingly as some like Lilithmon being defeated in Savers Another Mission by accepting her or in Re:Digitize Decode that Lucemon was forced to be Falldown and Satan Mode.
Guys you can use TCG cards for good images if you can't find anything.
Digimon cards often have text that overlaps with the image or pictures that don't feature the Digimon's entire body. We will not be using the cards.
give us a robot master quiz
Surprised you guys didnt do lucemons final form or the fused form of all the demon lords
It's more shell shock like the thing armies have from so much falling ammo around them I believe
if nico needs more, then the Olympus Twelve should overwhelm him plenty!
