Seems like they're going all in for the anniversary! Hope that means we see more of the games released recently in the US too.

This really makes me want to go back and watch the old series. Haven't seen it in... 15 years!
 
Tai is 17 and going on Digimon Adventure again?

... I'm getting Persona 4-based theorizing in my head that it's gonna be about him S-Linking with the original Destined kids and meeting new folk to take on the new threat.

But most of all I just wanna see a story of Digimon based in a world with our current technological state and usages of social networks. That has GOTTA be a rich mine of story potential.

Edit: GODDAMMIT I DID IT AGAIN NOW NOBODY WILL SEE THIS POST

I DID :D

A Persona 4 Digmon game will be a system seller for me lol
 
Hikari/Kari was in the trailer, guys. Around 0:39 - 0:40.

However, why was I here? Oh, right.

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGGGGGGGGGG
 
On related topic, how is Digimon Xro wars comparing to other season?. Still undecided whether to watch it or not. FYI My favorite were Adventure 1 and Tamer.
 
The OG cast are returning as leads, with Taichi at the helm once again. No doubt we will get cameos from 02 cast, and maybe even Akiyama Ryo.

Yeaaah I think Ryo is gonna say in Tamers universe.

It is bit weird tho that Ken never mentioned about Ryo to others. But thats what happens when you put story stuff on Wonderswan. ._.
 
I'm guessing Tai's back, old kids will show up here and there, but there will also be new kids, jumping off of the "everyone gets Digimon!" ending to 02.

Or alternatively, they back away from an ensemble show but have a lot of Digital World exploration. Easiest way to introduce new Digimon and new Digivolutions, show off their natural environment some more.

Plus Agumon never Armour-Digivolved, Bio-Digivolved, DNA Digivolved...

One of the shittier parts of 02. I would hope they retcon that out. The are only 9 chosen children, starting with order of importance:

1) Taichi
2) Hikari
3) Yamato/Sora/Mimi/Koushiro/Jou
4) Ichijouji Ken

Only they have the crests after all.

Are we perhaps forgetting Omegamon?
 
I am sure we will get the other megas. Few things can cause trouble to Omegamon, which is why I think there is a catch and they can't evolve normally. But that idea is pretty much Evil spirals from Season 2. I am banking on completely new evolution lines.

I don't know if you need to reinvent the wheel though. After all, seeing the likes of Mimi get Rosemon after so many years would already be a welcome thing to see.

Besides, I'm not sure if I want to risk anything that would deny me the likes of badasses like Wargreymon. But that's me. :lol

But Ryo's away in the Tamers-verse (and hopefully got together with Ruki, if he knows what's good for him). It'd be nice if he was able to see Ken one more time and all grown up, but then again...after all the shit Ryo went through in the Wonderswan games, maybe it'd be best to leave him with the relatively happy ending he got.



Speaking of bringing back some faves...I wonder if they'll find some way to bring the likes of Piximon, Leomon and BlackWargreymon, back.
I wouldn't even say BWG's technically "dead", he's just using his body as a seal. Which could probably be broken by anything if the plot demands.
 
Yeaaah I think Ryo is gonna say in Tamers universe.

Ryo is a multiverse traveler though. There is a high chance he can show up in this new series.
 
I hope they dont retcon 02 out of this. It wasnt that bad.
naw, it really was that bad.

Just as an example, the whole "don't hurt the evil digimon, they're living creatures!" shit was awful. MarineDevimon was ready to SMASH A FUCKING HOSPITAL and the weak, wishy washy pansyass Cody didn't want to fight him. Worthless. Fuck Davis, fuck Yolei, fuck putting the interesting characters and digimon in secondary roles.
 
That's only a DNA-Digivolution in the dub! I mean, it totally is one, but they could do it again?
True, they would need the power of the Internet again to make that happen...

Which is why I'm all like Make a new story about the broader potentials both good and bad about the new age of Tech and Internet in modern civilization and also with Digimon! We can still have this in a kid's show, right?

... I hope something lives up to the insanely kickass way WarGreymon wrecked the shit out of MetalSeadramon. DRILLED RIGHT THROUGH HIM WITH HIS OWN BODY

While I don't know about cashing in, I will say I am also on the Eh fence.

I see this and then I go " thats not the 2nd or the 3rd one " I mean its neat. I will watch i guess.
Yeah, I'm definitely apprehensive for the time being. I mean, obviously I hope it'll be great and I'll watch, but ehhhh, I'd really rather they went with an entirely new series. Then again, I suppose it won't be too much of a bad thing as long as I get more Gomamon~ :D

From what I remember Ryo got stuck in Tamers universe so he couldnt go back again in Adventure universe again. Or something like that.

Hmm thats a bad thing, but not that bad for me at least.

Maybe its because I am old school fan, but Frontier annoyed me much more than 02.
 
Wait didn't the English VA for Tai retire awhile ago? The dude's voice was so iconic to his character, at least in my mind.

He did, and Disney's replacement when they decided to dub Revenge of Diaboromon didn't quite pull it off. That said, if the character is 17 now, they could make a new VA work out.
 
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS


This the best news ever now if we can somehow legally buy Digimon Adventure in Japanese with English subtitles then I can die happy.

Best duo right here, screw Yamato.

Man I loved Digimon Adventure: Our War Games miles better than Summer Wars.
 
Interesting, I'll watch it. I assume the English version won't be messed around with this time. Were there any major differences in the OG series for the English dub outside of the music?

Plenty. Obvious toning down violence and sexual/drug references aside, the original dub also tended to insert (inappropriate) jokes at odd moments in the script.

Which is sad, because I actually thought the overall vocal casting for the English version was quite good. Joshua Seth is just as iconic as Tai to me as Toshiko Fujita is to Taichi.
 
An all new adventure? Very nice.

Hopefully it retcons 02's epilogue away. Maybe have a follow-up to the Lovecraft episode (you know the one).

I wonder if this will get a simulcast. I tried watching the Xros Wars dub and I couldn't stand it... it was the type of dub where everyone had to be talking every second or "kids would get bored". Lull destruction.
 
why was S3 fucked up? never seen it
same screenwriter from Serial Experiments Lain, some creepy visuals. The last part dealt a lot with hopelessness, loss and despair. Especially for one character
Hmm thats a bad thing, but not that bad for me at least.

frontier was the last season I saw...I still feel mixed on it. Would have been a lot better with digimon partners, for sure

I swear in like, episode 36 or 37, that Tai called Mimi a bitch.
 
Holy fuck yes!

Rewatched Digimom S1 for the first time in like 15 years this year and it was amazing. Couldn't be more excited for this.
 
HOLY SHIT the first two seasons were my jam as kid!
This is a good excuse to rewatch them + that awesome Hosoda movie.

Actually it was bad because the 2 mains hogged the spotlight sooooo badly at the end, rendering others useless. Made worse By the fact that it was soooo repetitive as well. And I dont care if you try to ignore Digimon levels, but making random Devimon recolor stronger than Ultimate/Mega is just plain wrong.

...Frontier is also the last season I saw. I really wonder if I should see other seasons. I fear I could hate Xross Wars because it has no levels as well.
