Agumon ofcoarse!
Wargreymon 🔥🔥
@@ramoncastro4737 i agree. I chose agumon because his digivolution line is the best.
@@kelvinsmith6812 facts
depends on the series, first series agumon, second series black wargreymon, third series gallantmon, etc
Tamers is one of the most influential show I ever watched growing up when I think about my tastes in media
Digimon Tamers from what I recall was directed by someone who was very passionate and devoted to telling dark emotional stories, that set tamers apart from all previous entries. You can see a lot more character development drama and social issues, family problems and the like in that particular series. Theres plenty of documentary style videos on UA-cam and other media that go into detail on why Tamers was so dark and sometimes even grim.
@@ShinParisu It was written by Chiaki Konaka (Serial Experiments Lain, Texhnolyze, Ultraman Gaia). Lets also not forget that the show went nuts with Lovecraftian influences in the last arc.
@@infernoconan1 Parasite dolls and Perfect blue too
@@granzedora Perfect Blue is by Satoshi Kon (similar writer/director as Konaka)
Man my Nostalgic hit me hard I miss that show
Now's the time to get back in!!!
Crunchyroll time to plug a Crunchyroll Premium subscription!
Everywhere man go on Hulu
I'm a fan of both Digimon and Pokemon, but I stuck around with Digimon more because their monsters looked cooler. My favorite Digimon is Agumon.
I love both as well! I’ve been sticking with Digimon as long as I remember. I’m currently watching the reboot and just finished watching Kizuna. Enjoyed both so far. My favorite digimon is Wargreymon. He’s such a BA....
I also love both Pokemon and Digimon. And I also stuck with Digimon more I just think their story was better in every seasons. My favorite Digimon is Omnimon
@@zerogranger Oh....nice choice!
Stingmon's design makes him my favorite
Same here. Agumon is my childhood first favorite Digimon, followed by Veemon is the 2nd, and Guilmon is the 3rd.
_Nostalgia kicks..._
Why hello there
Nani
@@EVERYWHERE_MAN what are you doing here dude
@@irmagorbea I’m everywhere
hey i like tamagotchi makes digimon
I slept on Digimon so hard as a kid but now that I've started playing Cyber Sleuth I've really started to open my eyes to what I was missing out on
also the running gag for Digimon is Leomon always dies no matter what universe he's in, poor dude.
Oh yes, I remember a buddy of mine grieving over his digimon in that old MMO they had going like 5 years ago. His words were and I quote. "He digivolved into a Leomon... Its his destiny to die."
The moment I saw him in ep 19’s preview on the reboot, all I thought was: He’ll die in a couple episodes.
Being Leomon is the equivalent of being a Lancer in Fate.
@@ShinParisu it’s still going in
@@SockHiggins Yes it is I heard recently but i also heard its filled with microtransactions and the management company is not doing the best to maintain it.
Love the reboot. Last Evolution is still breaking my heart. And the way they've had the kids grow up with us as been fantastic. I will always love Digimon and it will always be better than Pokemon. The themes and how they handle grown up topics are superb.
You got that right 👍
A friend was getting married and was selling off a lot of his stuff to afford the wedding. He joked that no one would buy his Wonderswan and I looked at him and I was like, "I would." And that's how I have a Digimon game that I can't read. TIme to start learning Japanese.
There’s plenty of apps out there I’ve been trying to learn
good old Rio on the good old wonderswan
Thank you for this prodigious history lesson about digimon and uploading this the day after the 20th anniversary of digimon the movie and the blu-ray/DVD release of Digimon Adventure Last Evolution Kizuna 😀👏👏👏🎉🎉🎉
I had a feeling you'd be hyped B)
@@CrunchyrollInsideAnime haha you know it 😁
Wow you know people at CR?
@@littlecloudflower well, I do follow a few people that work for CR on twitter
Ramon I swear your everywhere bro
Don't ever change lol
Whoa, I knew the digimon movie was originally 3 movies combined. But I didn't realize the first part was aired before the first episode of the anime. That really changes the perspective of the person watching. Someone that saw the movie first would have so much more understanding of the scene with Kari when Tai went back, and everyone remembering the events during the fight with Mammothmon.
man i love digimon frontier so much, it’s literally what shaped my childhood and ive seen it countless times
its really such a good show, the character development is so well written, and takuya and the twins are still some of my favourite characters, i literally cosplayed them without even knowing what cosplay is
i can only speak for the german ost but damn that was one heck of a ost. with broken wings is still my jam, and hyperspirit digitation? a whole bop
Yeah no... Gonna put this out there now. Frontier has not aged well at all. It’s pretty bad by today’s standards when you compare it to stuff like adventure time, regular show, Steven universe, etc. Every digimon show is better than frontier except for fusion.
@@astrograph7875 nah Frontier was dope
@@BartSimpson-rl2uo It wasn't :)
adventure2020 its just trash
@@BartSimpson-rl2uo I'm with you bro dope as hell, but I don't know why so much American hates it
you forgot the fact that the Digimon requires a somewhat energy soul link with its human partner in battle, so when the Digimon get hurt it hurts it's human
The fact the Digimon teaches kids that it's ok to grow up is the exact reason why it's better than Pokémon.
But It's Not Ok To Grow Up: You Lose Your Digimon If You Do.>:.O
@@JT5555 that's life for you can't stay young and fight monsters forever
@@nostalgicnerd9036 Like Hell I Can't.>:.O
@@JT5555 That's the Masaru Daimon way of thinking, and I can get down with that. Fuck losing my friends, punch god in the face and get em back!
@@JT5555 I haven't watched Last Evolution yet, I do have it but I haven't watched it yet. But from what I hear is there's mixed feelings about the possible messages being sent. If it's the fact that they are pushing the message that sometimes things in life happen and we're not sure why but we must carry on, then I can get behind that. But if the message is give up a deep connection to someone that really serves no purpose to leave but is just leaving for the sake of leaving and you have to "grow up and accept it" really comes off as a horrible message made purely to sweep old fans under the rug in order to cater to a new younger consumerist market.
I wish Digimon came back as a phone app so we can create our own Digimon and Digimon crest
Sadly, Digimon is underlooked & disrespected while Pokemon and Yugioh rule the world these days.
I am a 30 year old American and I was OBSESSED. Drove me crazy Pokémon was what everyone else loved. I very much identified with TK 🧡
I've always connected with Matt. Gabumon is a damn cool Digimon, so are his digivolutions; Garurumon, Were-Garurumon, and Metal Garurumon.
I feel like I was the kid trying really hard to be like Tai but in actuality I was more like Joe or Izzy :P
digimon would always have a soft spot to my heart because they not fear to treat difficult topic like murder, suicide, depression and such but they treat some dgreat topic like friendship, teamwork and such
Thank you. People taught I was fooling when I said Digimon came out in a handheld tamagotchi device. Who's crazy now
Koji Wada’s Japanese op for Digimon still slaps waaaay harder than the English op. That song in the last evolution movie made me feel all the things
I feel like Pokemon and Digimon are similar but very different and shouldn't be so heavily compared.
They're just of the same genre (monster collecting) that both have the same roots in the old hobby of Japanese kids catching bug larvae to raise them and make them fight. It's the same as magical girl shows or mecha being the same genre as well.
I remember going to the first digimon tri movie and everyone started to sing the opening..... I will never forget this beautiful moment of being in the same room with fans who adore the series and the song (Germany covered butterfly as its opening and I think that was a great choice! I don’t like the american song...) as much as I did and even got the courage to sing with x random people in a cinema room....
Tim No! I haven't recovered mentally from Last Evolution Kizuna! 😭
Me either....😢
I haven’t watched it yet but I have a feeling I’m going to need tissue
Digimon is still my favorite over Pokemon hands down!
@Eddie Bloomberg This is a video about Digimon, they can say that if they want to.
Mine too but to me its like
Best anime: Digimon
Best video game: Pokemon
Best card game:Yugioh
I totally feel the same ✌️😎
@@big-inj5622 yup no shame here for me. I like them both but i prefer Digimon.
@@kelvinsmith6812 I was also loving Pokémon up until like the fifth generation was to come out (as I figured that Arceus was like OPAF) but Digimon has always had a place in my heart especially when I’d gotten to see my own name on a villain from Digimon Tamers so yeah ✌️😎
The fact that Digimon debuted as a Virtual pet toy, gives Agumon a chance to be included in Smash Ultimate. I'll shit bricks in excitement if he gets added in.
I had more fun with the Pokemon Games, but Digimon definitely won in the TV Show department. I liked how Digimon's seasons were more self contained, rather than the unending slog with immortal MC that is the Pokemon show.
Wow, nostalgia hit me hard. Thank you for this Digimon documentation
Please stop comparing Digimon to Pokémon
I agree. Digimon is a more serious anime 😉
Personally I prefer digimon over Pokémon
Same
Kids that age unlike ash
I had EVERYTHING Digimon when I was a kid. I had the entire series on VHS,I had a Veemon alarm clock,bed sheets,every action figure you could think of,every digivice in every color. My favorite thing I had was a custom wooden cut of out Greyson my mom had specially made. My mom went on a lot of business trips to Japan so whenever she was there she would buy whatever we couldn’t find in the stores over here and then just mail it back home. Fuck those were the days before 9/11 and the 08 housing crisis
How nice. I wish I could have experienced something like that.
@@skip031890Power Rangers and Digimon is own Disney ?
I love this kind of video! I really enjoyed the Magical Girls one and the Isekai one too. Thank you for making them! They're very interesting and informative. My favorite Digimon are Patamon, Gatomon, Gabumon and Gomamon! :D
Digimon was my childhood in every which way ❤️ it had such an impact
When i was a kid, Digimon was my fav show! It is one of the show, next to yugioh that got me into anime. Not to mention Hikari/Kari, Taichi/Tai sister is my first anime waifu even to this day.
Also we don't have to say good bye for a long time. There will be a day that we will meet with the ones we befriend in our childhood. So i know that Taichi and the others form the Original Digimon Adventure will meet their partners one day soon.
At Least She's Not Almost A Toddler Anymore,Otherwise That Would Be Pretty Creepy.XD
@@JT5555 Agree. I'm really happy to see her as an young adult. It shows how much she's grow.
@@pimsutter Quite So.
@@JT5555 Yep. And i hope to see more of young adult Hikari soon.
For everyone that thought the Last Evolution had a sad ending, just know that they DO meet each other again, human potential is limitless no matter the age!
Not Tai's,Matt's Or Sora's Apparently (Making It Kind Of A Big Fuck You).XD
In 02’s ending every one has a digimon in the end
@@JT5555 the 02 epilogue is very much still canon.
WOWZERS ANOTHER FANTASTIC VIDEO CRUNCHYROLL
We love you bro! These videos wouldn't be the same without you. Give this man a raise Crunchyroll.
I watched one of the first anime’s as well as fusion when it was on Netflix, and I miss it a lot actually. I might rewatch them at some point
Shout out from the DigimonNerds4Life Facebook group. Just shy of 8,000 digimon fans.
Thanks for the video Crunchyroll
Did anyone really find Digimon: The Movie hard to follow? I mean, yeah, if you weren't up to date with the show it'd be very difficult to understand (which is fairly normal for movie spin-offs of TV shows) but if you were it's very easy to follow the three stories and where they fit in timeline wise. I was totally satisfied by it as a kid, finally getting to see the Highton View Terrace incident in full, the super fun battle through the internet and then an interesting fresh side story with the new, current cast of the show, and all of it with _way_ more slick animation than anything you'd ever see in the show.
I honestly like the changes that were made to the plot as well, Willis being Diaboromon's creator makes Diaboromon a more interesting, tragic character and having the virus that infected him take over Kokomon too, again, makes the situation much more personal and tragic, rather than having Kokomon's infection be totally random like in the original. The third segment/Hurricane Touchdown is just generally more watchable in it's dubbed form, even though it's heavily edited down it really loses nothing important (the original is kind of a slog). The overall writing in the movie is a noticeable step up from the show's quality during the first two seasons too, the added jokes are better and land much more often. My only major criticism of the movie would be it's handling of the first segment, the impeccable atmosphere of the original is totally buried under the excessive narration.
Sorry I ended up going on so much, as you can tell I'm a big defender of the movie, I really think they did a good job of meeting the seemingly impossible task they were given of turning 3 separate movies into a single enjoyable feature.
Yeah Nobody ever talks about the movie being hard to follow....
Crunchyroll is just being weird.
The Tai and Izzy part where they are trying to stop Diaboromon is excellent
I really like how you talked about the new DA series as a digiegg
I like both Pokemon and Digimon but did grow up with Pokemon more in my life but will admit both are awesome in their own unique ways and thats awesome!
Bandai should put Weregarurumon in Tekken
That would be funny having a giant wolf monster in tekken would be funny
Love this video and this series!! Please keep it up!! How about History of Megaman!!
Digimon the original is back on Hulu.
But dub only....
@@granzedora So? I literally grew up watching season 1,2 and 3 dubbed on fox kids, and yea there are the cringy bad moments, but honestly its not that bad, especially when you compare it to the reboot of season 1.... i really wanted to like it, but it just felt so rushed all the time, there was no fun episodes it was just "oh we defeated ogremon" 5 secs later "now machinedramon" defeated and 5 secs later "now devimon" and its like.... ok can we like have a funny episode where the group kinda just chills and talks about i dunno, the fact that they thought there was one celestial digimon but now 2 or any of that shit... it just feels so rushed.
@@scorake14 not that I have a problem with it.
Currently playing Digimon ReArise on my phone. Just got Belphemon Rage Mode, Dorugoramon, Examon, RustTyrannomon, MetalSeadramon, Megidramon, MetalGarurumon, Rasielmon, PrinceMamemon, Ebonwumon, and GoldVeedramon in there. Trying to get Magnamon by raising my Veemon (still trying to get Kimeramon, Leviamon, Omnimon (including Zwart and Merciful Mode), Volcanicdramon, and Gallantmon Crimson Mode).
Also, I remember playing Digimon Dawn. It was great, and I got ShineGreymon Ruin Mode in there. And would like to play the new card game as well in a convention (the only card game I got to play (and obtain) in a convention (Smash! in Sydney, Australia) was Cardfight!! Vanguard).
16:43 thank you 100% i've been telling people that and no one listens. Also Tim needs to take better care of his virtual pets with the news ones coming. Digimon rearise mobile game is good and it's having its 1 year anniversary 🎉🎉 (2 years for jp version)
6:45 (pokemon ability) " its super *effective* "
wait isnt that illegal
Great video!
Yes a next one weeeeeee it's so nice watching these
I enjoyed both Pokémon and Digimon, I got a Digimon X Virtual Pet last week and I love it so very much it’s like a Grape 🍇 Purple color. And next month I plan on picking out what Pokémon game I’m going to get come November, I’m still undecided but I want to know the Version Exclusives first before I make my final decision.
I love that I found this Video. Had a Blast going to the Theaters watching Adventure Tri. Tamers indeed is my favorite Series due to it's Dark Nature. I love Xros Wars, but I think the Manga is a lot better since the Protagonists actually recruit Classic Digimon. Also the Dub missed out on the Legendary Heros Episode which was pretty epic seeing all the Team Leaders going all out.
damn, crunchyroll really be putting out high quality youtube videos? subscribing
Not sure whether or not to hate you or love you for getting that old tune back in my head...still remember Terriormon fighting to that in the old garbage movie...
I swear it said "Funk So Rubber" though. Probably just bad sound quality at the time.
But...thanks. Love the video, hate you for the moment for reminding of that song.
Good work either way, gonna shut up now and keep watching.
I love this SHOW! This show meant so much to me!
This was awesome!
Such a nostalgic show love it
Tamers was my favorite season by far. I would love for them to do a continuation or reboot for its anniversary once they finish Digimon Adventure 2020
I didn't have WB network only way to get it is to buy Cable....Yep Cable. had the local TV Stations so FOX was one of them. love waking up every Saturday mornings to watch Digimon, Monster Rancher, Godzilla The Series, Beast Machines or Sherlock Holmes the 22th century. I love Digimon ever since I saw it on TV, only watch the first series I didn't like second series. when hearing the news back in 2016 about Original Digidestined were coming back and relived my childhood again.
17:10
It's a tradition.
1:00 oh boy this got my mom a little too addicted back in the day, she had like 5+ of those
This video unlocked so many memories for me lol
My older brother (year and 9 months older) and I got the original digimon for christmas one year, once they got to rookie stage we immediately battled and I won, still have a picture of me as a kid holding my digimon in the air in victory and my brother with a grimace on looking at his lmao
It's sad that the American kids grew up with the inferior opening instead of butter-fly.
I‘m so glad Germany chose to cover the song despite not having the same lyrics but at least the same song base.... it‘s just my childhood melody no matter if it’s in German or in Japanese. I remember going to the first digimon tri movie and everyone started to sing the opening..... I will never forget this beautiful moment of being in the same room with fans who adore the series and the song as much as I did and even got the courage to sing with x random people in a cinema room....
Jokes on me I watch fusion only
I love both sub and dub fortunately I grew up with dub on fox kids
@@nathansylvester5193 yea was so awesome, I didnt even know Tri existed until a few weeks ago and I only just watched them. And it was so great cause the movies make you feel like so much time has passed from the first season which actually is the case and had been a while since I rewatched the originals, so I felt so in place with the movies, and best of all, having so many of the original english dub VA's coming back was soooo good!
Digimon is awesome! I remember watching alot of it on Jetix and I also watched the Cyber Sleuth games! Currently watching the reboot now. Btw, Wargreymon is my favorite Digimon!
Bandai put out a 20th Anniversary version of the VPet recently and it's great. It's like $20 on Amazon.
And 5 bucks at Target.
The new series deserves A LOT more attention!
Data Squad/Savers was underrated. I liked that one a lot
I remember that Pokemon used to come on Fox early in the morning here in South Carolina before I head to school and then Kids WB bought the rights to it..... Digimon was a phenomenal show in my opinion and I just can't wait to watch the reboot Digimon Adventures 2020!
I liked this video. It was a lot better than I thought it would be.
I knew some people who had Tomodachi.
The clothes they wear Digimon car reminds me of club kids from the late 90s and the early 2000s in New York
Digimon movie is my childhood. Shit makes me cry now. The digimon adventure remake isn't terrible. Voice of agumon is just wrong but whatever. Him digivolving made me tear up. Nostalgia hit me hard on digimon
Omg so true! And yea the remake... I tried really hard to like it, but it just keeps going from one enemy to the next, it just feels pointless for the most part. And yea agumon's voice, ugh especially when hes MetalGreymon, whenever I see the digivolution im always like "Greymon digivolve to....... BATMAN!"
Thank you crunchyroll I was actually in kindergarten when the show aired used to watch it with my cousin
I just got back to the original series because I never finished it when I was a kid. Even better now: Watching the original Japanese dub. I'm impressed of how intriguing, funny, and moving it is...! I'm totally hooked.
To Digimon experts:
To watch the complete "official timeline" of the original cast, I must watch: DIGIMON ADVENTURE (currently watching), DIGIMON ADVENTURE 2, the DIGIMON TRI single season, and DIGIMON LAST EVOLUTION KIZUNA, right? Am I missing something...? The new remake would be an extra as well, but not needed to close the full circle, right...?
That is correct

@@theonewhoismany8072 aside from Agumon, I have don't really issues with the casting choices for the main cast.
Where can I watch it
I felt that Digimon World DS shout out
I love how they can make anything a digimon from animals, plants, bugs, angels and gods I wonder what new digimon they will make
They even made a ice cream digimon but when they do it fans don’t get mad unlike Pokémon
@@tame5052 Ice cream digimon? XD are we completely forgetting Sukamon? :P the literal Poop digimon haha
I've always heard about it for years but now I'm gonna check it out. I'm really gonna hate them being grow up and saying goodbye tho.
So a random thought came to my mind once...
What if VRV & Crunchyroll were on Switch?
Hell Crunchyrolls on the Wii U
Dude, I'm still wondering how Netflix still isn't on the Switch.
I love Digimon !
I hope Digimon survive come out one day...
At least we got an explanation of the delay and will get actual news on Spring 2021
I saw the Digimon the movie that's how I got hooked up too the series and also the Tri series as well
I picked up my new digivice vpet today!
Season 3 was my first Digimon season, then 4 before starting back
This video made me want to see it again.
I just always thought homie’s gloves and goggles were the coolest. I’ve been trying to pull off that same little ensemble ever since.
Loved going to Tamatown
I love tamagotchi's! They're so cool!
🥰 SO MUCH NOSTALGIA!!! I still have all these games and systems 🥰
I remember going to see the movie with my family. They gave out trading cards.
Frontier was my favorite, loved Beetlemon. Could never get my card to scan though. Very sad kid days.
the surprise didn't mention the cross episode all main leaders come together. that was epic!! difference between pokemon and digimon that all characters grow up than ash still an 10 years old. Plzz!!! do an episode on what the difference from manga to anime or blood series history
I think that isn’t cannon
@@tame5052 crossover episode from all digmon learder come together. it was excited episode.
@@tame5052 the word "canon" doesn't exist in digimon. Everything is canon. From the movies,to the anime,to the manga,card games,video games,v-pets etc.
I'm just watching this to see how digimon started since I'm watching the remake (which is the first time I'm experiencing anything digimon).
And now Crunchyroll is telling me that some digimon will die and the ending.
And now I'm crying
Oh man i remember i was starting 5th grade and later during 5th grade i would run home to watch digimon every day after school to watch digimon before my karate lessons to
Can someone tell where to watch all these shows
im from mexico so i got fox kids as its own channel and the beatiful butter-fly for the first series
Wow now its animated that's cool
Tamagotchi also had an anime of its own. Maybe talking about it would be a consideration in the future?
Just watched Last Evolution Kazuna and I am 29 and cried lmao
The digimon movie and its soundtrack are the definition of my upbringing
Can’t wait for the reboot
This was good. History of monster rancher would be good as well
Thanks
