      This is a good overview of the entire Digimon series. But there are some errors in the Universe Appli Monsters portions. 1) It took place in 2016, not 2045. 2) Saving a brother was Rei's goal, not Haru's goal.

      You got the Applimonsters synopsis utterly and completely wrong. Applimonsters is less of a sequel and more of a continuity reboot bullshit. Also the rescue brother arc was the arc of Rei Katsura the rival for the early part of the anime. The main character Haru Shinkai was a timid boy similar to Takato whose grandpa was killed by the main villain Leviathan and was dragged into the whole mess since his grandfather created both Minerva the big good and technically Leviathan making him his uncle and aunt of sorts and both have been meddling in his life for years.
      Also fun fact Xros Wars Boy hunters the third season of the anime was mostly stalling for Saint Seiya Omega the sequel/reboot to Saint Seiya which was also received poorly. Mainly because they got into some major production problems in the beginning. So Boy hunters was made as filler for the season while they finished Omega.

      I mean, its no secret Digimon was almost killed by Tamers and/or Frontier when they alienated a large chunk of the fanbase and scared them away. There really isn't all that much more to it than that. They spent too much time trying to fix what wasn't broken in the first place. Stick with what works. Pokemon did that and had more and longer success on TV as a result

      Yet almost every season of Digimon has more praise then Pokemons anime. If every show was like Pokemon TV would be straight trash (This is from someone who has been tuning in daily to the twitch marathon of the Pokemon anime) If we didnt have shows like Last Airbender, Full metal Alchemist or Digimon Tamers (All of which are less popular but still higher quality then Pokemons anime) it would be a sad world.

      if anyone wants to watch universe, beware. it's a season that it's filled with publicity filler and it was really bad for the season, but if you have patience and look carefully, you'll see the potential it had, with a lot of AI and digimon related reference, an amazing problematic with yujin, rei and leviathan. and an amazing final episode doing a turnabout on the bad guy stereotype. i really loved it, and i think if you have patience you'll enjoy it

      @@bowrin32 oh it's simple, i'm trying to say that the phasing of the episodes were slow and they had to make it happen at the same time a new toy came out(except scorpmon). For example. An appmon of a new grade didn't appear until the super appmon chip wave came out (because of that we saw in a lot of episodes super appmon or even kiwami appmon fighting against a standard appmon), also a lot of the episodes always felt like, something happened, we fight the appmon of the day and then we do something at the end to progress the story. The series lost a lot of time on that structure instead of focusing on developing the characters (literally hal for example. In the first episode he's cowards, insecure, etc. But then in the third one he already is like "omg i must fight, i'm strong, etc etc" don't get me wrong. I love this season for a lot of reason. But we have to be real in what it did wrong and that it lost a lot of potential. (Literally the episodes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 19, 32(i think this is the one were the digimon died, i don't remember too well) the next one. The battle agains knight, Episode 45 (because of the crossover that was so much better than whatever TRI tried to do xD), and then the last 7 episode.

    I can't speak for other dubs that were made for other countries.But the dub for Latin America was actually pretty accurate with the original source. We also had the original covers for the opening, Digi evolution sequence and ending, rather than the..."Digi Rap" some people were subjected to.

    Lately I’ve been looking at shows I used to watch a long time ago, and I’m considering rewatching some of them, because I didn’t get to finish them because they were “too violent”. Thankfully my dad never said anything of Digimon, so I watched everything execpt Adventure Tri. God I love this series and I think it’s really well made, in my opinion much much better than pokemon (referring to the anime, I haven’t played either game).

    digimon fan here, if you say that digimon is still ongoing, sure it is, it's far from dead and forgotten since the fanbase is still very strong but broken into pieces (there are adventure fanboy, tamers fanboy, etc). But is it without problems? surely no, you can say that digimon nowadays is on zombie state, it's not willing to die but it's still seeking ways to revive the franchise into its glory day. And it's getting desperate into taking "all nostalgia fuel" attempt, without even thinking anything about creating new fanbase. They milk the adventure fans with shitty movie for easy money, doing it by low budget and efforts, and selling expensive toys with cheap quality. They now lack of any interesting projects except just with the video game department coz we have one man, a producer with so much ambition to innovate.
    Digimon is still ongoing, but with zombie state

    You really glossed over the original foundation of Digimon, the Virtual Pets. Granted, most of them are Japan-exclusives, but there were many generations of V-Pets over several years.
    There is also a recent re-emergence of V-Pets with the Digimon ver.20th in 2017, the Pendulum ver.20th in 2018, and the newly announced Digimon X that is currently unreleased.

    When I was a kid, I was absolutely obsessed with this digimon movie when I was kid, I forgot what it was called, but the antagonist like made a giant frankenstein like digimon that was like kaiju size, and had his original digimon was this little green worm looking dude, and then the worm died, and kind of came back, and I always remember crying when I watched it as a kid. All I remember is that the antagonist was named ken, and that I was a young kid when I watched it.

      threebeforetwo watching that as a kid was so stupidly surreal for me as a kid because of how emotional the death of ken’s digimon was framed.

I haven’t been able to remember what it’s from in the longest time.

    I loved Digimon as a kid, though I stopped watching after season 3 or Tamers.
    Even saw the movie in theaters. I preferred the show over Pokémon because the characters were more engaging and it had higher stakes.
    I was always disappointed that the series never seemed to receive the same appreciation that Pokemon did in its heyday.
    Glad to see Digimon making a comeback with those Tri films and Cyber Sleuth games. :D

    Tai’s Sister is the Teacher in Digimon Tamers and in the finale fight of Tamers she seemed to know what Digimon were already so I don’t think Tamers is in a different universe, I think it’s just further in the future. That’s what it seemed like to me anyway.

    I thought Fusion wasn't bad... As long as you watched the subbed version. I am not usually a person to say subs are superior than subs but... The dubbed version is cringe to me. Also I didn't like the third part of Fusion. It was mostly boring and I forget any episode that didn't involve gumdramon developing in any way or involved a cameo of a human characters from the last two parts. I did think the climax was good though

    Interesting side note: Frontier's use of the term "evolution" instead of "Digivolving" was the first time both the original Japanese version and the English dub used the same word to describe that action. I'm not sure why they did this, but it sure made it fun to imitate the power-up callouts. "Sliiiiiiide evolution!"

One of my classmates took pity on me and gave me one of Angewomon though, although there are scribbles on the back. I still treasure it to this day, and I guess for good reason haha.

    By the way Vpets and Digivices are still being made, but you will have to import them from japan if you want them. The most recent one is a remake of the digimon pendulum series, and an upcoming one is a Vpet called digital monster X.
    Edit: This aged poorly in all the right ways, there is now an english version of the anniversary vpet, it cost $20 and can be bought from bestbuy, gamestop, and amazon.

    One of the reasons Digimon is behind pokémon in America is that they changed the epic Japanese theme song to a weird, ugly English theme song in the original series. If they just translate the song instead of change it, people will remember that song just like they remember pokémon theme song.

  • @inaritenko
    @inaritenko 6 років тому

    Bandai is making a lot of correct moves with Digimon right now. They understand their audience, they know that today's kids probably wouldn't be into it, so they're aiming to interest old fans who grew up with it and liked it as a kid. The games they've made lately are dark in tone and heavily story-based. Meanwhile, Pokemon continues to ignore their older aged fans and makes games with increasingly simplistic gameplay and less story. A good story is the icing on the cake of a good game. It's just not as fun if you only run around to catch Pokemon with little to no plot.
