TFRazorsaw posted:I would take "just sort of there and doesn't get to do much" over "body gets taken over by someone else entirely so she can get led around half naked". Both suck but one isn't actively offensive. I think it's less "all stories are true" and more "something like these stories happened in this continuity." Except for Tailmon and Wizarmon. That was pretty explicitly the Adventure characters. When hearing about the XW manga it sounded like a lovely fanfic but I honestly enjoyed it a lot when I finally read it. I've been reading RE:Digitize Encode and it's pretty slow. It follows the story of the game pretty closely at first but starts to branch out after the first Memorial Stella. And... then it went on hiatus. I hear it's coming back though. Is anyone translating it? If not, maybe I should go ahead and do that. So far I haven't had too much trouble with it.

forbidden lesbian posted:I don't know which series that is but the third one was so good and then the next series started and everyone was just annoying and I never watched another digimon again. Savers is the G Gundam to Tamers' Evangelion. Also the main character is a delinquent with seemingly superhuman strength who punches bad digimon to make his agumon evolve. the plot is by the same person who made the setting/plot for G Gundam apparently.

As far as the dubs go Tamers' isn't bad. It has a great cast and has some moments that are as well done as the original, but the original is the best experience.

No, they were part of normal double-feature anime movies.

The thing about the Ryo games is that they don't even fit up with the plots of any season despite trying to do so. Especially Tamers, where the writers just wrote him as just another kid from the Tamers world and let Bandai try to make it fit.

All of the promotional stuff Toei has been releasing has English language versions, so I would be surprised if they stream them over here in some fashion. Also the guy that leaked the plot of Ressurection F early has allegedly released the plot for the first tri movie. I'm taking it with a grain of salt but if it's true it's definitely not what I would have expected.

They can still rewrite that poo poo and the rest of the show happens, right? It was just a largely unnecessary "let's wrap this up!" idea that ought to have been left ambiguous. That wasn't the main reason, it was just the icing on the plot hole-filled train wreck of a cake

gently caress, I just realized Meicoomon is MAIne COOn mon. Also I'm not sure which Digimon site you guys were talking about, but the first forum I ever joined was what I think was the biggest message board. It was owned by one of the translators of the show. I was 10 at the time, and a couple years later when it closed I moved the next big one. I'm pretty sure that's where I found out about SA, come to think of it. It was also the first place that linked me to goatse. Good times.

Burkion posted:And honestly much of the early flubs are entirely because the dubbers didn't know what was going to happen later in the series, such as Mimi's nonexistent brother (the bad singing voice is an error on the ORIGINAL side, if you want to play that card) and what not. By the time of Myotismon almost all of those rough areas are gone, and you just have a really drat good dub especially for the time it was made. The Tamers dub really is pretty great, though it still is a pretty different experience from the original. I found that the jokes usually hit pretty well and in a few cases I think the dialogue in some serious scenes was better than the original. As far as accuracy goes though I think Savers/Data Squad is the dub with the least amount of creative liberties/added jokes.

Omegamon wasn't even a jogress in the card game, which had jogress as a game mechanic since before the show started. Anyway the 02 jogress are considered the official ultimate/perfect forms of the 02 partners because they didn't make other ones for them. In the D3 toy where they first appeared, each of the 2 partners you could choose from had their own evolution lines but required jogressing with the other to reach ultimate/perfect. Stingmon would become Dinobeemon and then later evolve to GranKuwagamon instead of Paildramon and Imperialdramon, and Angemon and Tailmon would become their normal evolutions. So while yes, Silphymon is considered Hawkmon's canon perfect form, that doesn't mean he can reach it without Tailmon. Not that it would matter with Tri anyway since they're already diverging from what used to be the "canon" evolutions by using Vikemon as Gomamon's mega instead of Plesiomon.

Bandai seemed to give less of a poo poo than Saban did and neither were ever on the same page when it came to names. The dub at least tried to interpret the Japanese names most of the time, like actually calling the Cherubimon the right name, whereas Bandai seemed to have translators with a tenuous grasp of Japanese, frequently confusing B and P characters (example: ピヨモン (piyomon) as ビヨモン (biyomon)) and not even trying to change them into English (apokarimon or kurisarimon instead of apocalymon and chrysallimon) When it comes to the mythology-based ones I don't blame them for not getting it right though. (agnimon to agunimon, hours mom to halsemon, etc) but that kind of thing still bugs me just because I've been romanizing katakana for over 15 years I might be getting some of this stuff wrong though because I'm doing this all from my memory of being a 10 year old digimon nerd who practically lived on the internet.

I wonder if they'll keep Vikemon as Armadillomon's mega now that they've replaced Plesiomon with him. And is there any word on if the weird digimental/digi-egg search feature is back? I never understood how it worked but I think it detected wireless signals or something?

The Izzy/Koushiro's friend who they said was Willis was actually just some kid who was never mentioned again. And there's no virus, Diaboromon is just an rear end in a top hat that was born on the web out of nowhere. I'd still recommend watching it in Japanese too. It's largely the same but the atmosphere is different. On one hand, the original is probably an overall better experience. On the other hand, the scene when Omnimon forms and it starts playing Let's Kick it Up is awesome. In the original it makes it seem like some miracle, while the dub makes it's like "oh hell yeah, let's gently caress poo poo up"

So is no one going to mention the fact that Imperialdramon got straight-up deleted? I mean, drat. I'm sure he'll come back somehow, but what a way to treat the big digimon evolution of season 2. On a similar note, the way they talk about Ken makes it seem like they dealt with him before as a villain. "Why him again" I think is what Mimi said? I might be remembering wrong, but I think there was an interview with the director for Tri where he said the 02 kids not being mentioned was "part of the mystery." Maybe their involvement in the series got erased from the past somehow? The government organization had a list of the 02 kids showing them as missing back in part 1, though, and a close up on Ken's name. Since their info was from Gennai, maybe they know stuff about 02 that the kids in Tri don't. As for the new mega evolution method, it seems that it requires the kids to face their worst sides/personal situations and grow from it. I wonder if WarGreymon will evolve later, since Tai obviously is facing it the most.

Nah, World on the Knife was just the band club members that were performing for the festival. I hope I'm wrong though!

Pretty sure I saw the ratings back when I was younger and they went down during 02 compared to 01. It's also a complete and total fact that more people in Japan know of 01 than 02. Butterfly is a pretty much a staple at karaoke whereas Target's unheard of, and your average person would be hard pressed to name someone like Daisuke or Ken as opposed to Taichi or Yamato.
