Rate the Burst Mode.
>>483374798At least The flying wolf head makes sense there.
>>483374798They actually brought back Burst Mode/10
>>483374798Meh. I'd rather see what Sleipmon BM actually looks like.
Chapter 3 ends this week I guess.
Post your speculations on the "Coming Soon".

>>483380270kek
>>483281123pretty simple. V-mon>V-dramon>AV-dramon>Idramonulforce came out after paladin mode and I vastly prefer dragon mode. I used machinedramon before idramon came out and mushmon before v-mon. I picked v-dramon early just so that when we played digimon at the park I didnt have to compete for greymon, and I was blessed for it. My prefered armor evolutions have always been raidramon and yasyamon over flamedramon. My tree also includes a champion level jogress to airdramon with my IRL homie's betamon, and making paildramon out of v-dramon plus kabuterimon. I grew up in angel grove, where imperial highway is a thing. Strange world. Sometimes I think my high school Japanese teacher was meg-chan
>>483380270How long did he last?
>>483382376He evolves into GrappLeomon at the end, and notes it’s a Leomon species that hasn’t died in any media yet iirc

>>483380270the joke lost its punch when colon's leomon didn't die. such is life

>>483410703What would your idea ADVENTUUUUURE movie be? It cannot retcon the 02 ending.
>>483410838>Sora and Yamato are finally getting married>Koushiro and Taichi are helping people who just got partners>Jou is opening up his Digimon hospital>Mimi is dragging Hikari and Miyako for a last minute shopping trip for the wedding>Takeru is chilling since he already freed up his schedule>Daisuke is swamped with customers and is rushing to close shop for the day>Ken is clocking out of his job and is teased by his coworkers about tying the knot with Miyako when the topic of the wedding comes up>Iori is finishing up his classes and was heading towards Daisuke's shop>More and more people are getting partners so everyone's been busy making sure the world is in harmony>Unfortunately, a bad guy gets a partner too>He's using his partner to wreak havoc upon the human world>The Chosen Children get wrapped up in the adventure one by one until they all unite for the final battle>Movie ends with the wedding ceremony and a promise that things were peaceful
>>483410838Can it ignore Kizuna, tri and The Big-inning?
>>483412271yeah let's pretend those never existed, imagine you're back at the before-tri times and you're making a movie that's supposed to take tri's place

They get in touch with the international CCs for that.>Chosen arrive to find the DW as a clusterfuck, but most structures and old mons are still there.>They have a nostalgic romp across old areas, meet Digimon that they knew back then, try to rally them up against the main villain, fend off said villains troops, etc.>fight against newer released mons as part of the villains army>Show off how far they came from their kid days, have them pull off stuff in reference to their careers from 02 (Have Taichi negotiate between a two rival villages, have Jou help Centarumon to open up the DWs first clinic, etc.)>Give everyone ultimates in climactoc resolutions of their character arcs. (so no shit like tris ults)>put them in crazy shenanigans like in 99>Cut-ins to how the 02 gang is doing on earth>Final battle has the villain fight both teams at once, with Shakkoumon and Silphymon getting their evosI'd have to think about more detailed stuff, but something like this. No cardboard OCs, no dumbass melodrama. Just Adventure.
>>483410838All you have to do is a Revenge of Diaboromon or World Tour arc style movie with an older cast. It’s so simple yet they keep making the same mistakes over and over.
>>483378917Digimon comics section or new v-pet section.
Is bandai seriously making a 4th card game? Are they just naturally retarded? Why are they creating competition among themselves and sabotaging digimon tcg.
>>483420592qrd?
>>483420969Nvm it's already out it seems, union arena is the 4th card game bandai created after digimon tcg. They saw how successful digimon tcg is and instead of investing into the franchise more and doing more events and regionals instead they created 3 other tcgs and 3 of them are now ahead of the digimon one in Japan List of TCG Franchises Ranked By 2023-24 Fiscal Year Revenue in Japan:1) Pokémon – 133.7 billion JPY (~US$857.3 million)2) Yu-Gi-Oh – 47.1 billion JPY (~US$302 million)3) Duel Masters – 28.9 billion JPY (~US$185.3 million)4) ONE PIECE – 26.5 billion JPY (~US$169.9 million)5) Weiß Schwarz – 13.9 billion JPY (~US$89.1 million)6) Magic: The Gathering – 5.3 billion JPY (~US$34 million)7) Battle Spirits – 3.8 billion JPY (~US$24.4 million)8) Shadowverse EVOLVE – 3.7 billion JPY (~US$23.7 million)9) Union Arena – 3.2 billion JPY (~US$20.5 million)10) Yu-Gi-Oh Rush Duel – 3.1 billion JPY (~US$19.9 million)>11) Cardfight!!

>>483420592Sabotaging Digimon comes as naturally to Bandai as breathing.
>>483420969>Digimon>One Piece>Dragon Ball>Union ArenaBandai has released four card games, all of them using the exact same mechanics as the Digimon Card Game but with more recognisable IPs because money
>For future developments, they plan to make Digimon be seen as a single interconnected series instead of individual works on their own. So for future events will be made to promote this change in public perceptionGenuinely, what the fuck does that even mean
>>483421429Well, if it's selling more, it's clearly better.
>>483423361Probably means they want to make it so everything has a single continuityYou can kinda see it with Liberator literally having Cool Boy
>>483423361>They became a shareholderDamn. How much did that endeavor cost?
>>483423361Less self contained things like Tamers, Frontiers, Savers etc.More like Adventure and 02, probably even Xros Wars and Hunters
>>483387672Mom always said I would spoil any pets/children I ever get.
>>483424014How the fuck are they gonna tie Adventure or Frontier into the Story games? Hell, Xros Wars literally has a multiverse
>>483423361>>483424014Hoo boy. Get ready for Tachi dropping into Liberator
>>483424203>literally has a multiverseYou answered your own questionThey're probably gonna canonize the multiverse
>>483423361>>483424014didn't nintendo do the same thing with mario recently where they went "it's all the same mario, every single game, same guy"? what's with jap companies and their obsession with doing this shit
>>483424458Even Kamen Rider and Super Sentai been doing it more recently. I have no idea either.
>>483424458Genuinely, does anyone even care if Mario does it? It's a platformer franchise that occasionally dips into party games and RPGs. People don't really play them for deep lore
To be fair, a lot of Digimon's problems come from the fact that A LOT of stuff is one-and-done deals/gimmicks that don't connect to the rest of the franchise and are left forever unusedI can see why they'd want to unify stuff
>>483424826>Armor evolution>Card Slash>Spirit Evolution>Burst Mode>DigiXros>AppRealiseYou have to admit, the franchise gimmicks are getting a bit out of hand. And each subsequent game having to figure out how to stuff all the mechanics in must be frustrating
>>483423361They should just have all Digimon media take place in the V-pet/DRBverse from now on
>>483424352They already have, the digimon 25th anniversary Dot history book mentions how all Digital Worlds are connected and how the Digital World looks and works differently depending on where it’s accessed
>>483423361Well...there could be some translation errors from Japanese but from these specific words like >Interconnected series >Not individual works It seems like they want to make the franchise more linear in nature which is the opposite of what digimon was if we look back at the video games and how varied they were with different art and design directions even for the same franchise like world 2 and 3 which look completely alien to world 1.By linear that means they'll try to connect everything together from now on instead of separating it , considering that ghost game was the initial topic of conversation, they were maybe disappointed by its performance, they most likely looked at the success of kizuna (both BD and cinematic success )and 02 movie.They'll abuse the adventure name more and the games are gonna be more similar in design and direction.
>>483425178I hope all this just means is that they'll make the current stuff they're promoting more interconnected rather than each part of the franchise doing its own thing. Sort of like how each Pokemon gen makes sure to work with the current region. So if they release a new game or anime, they'll be in the Liberator-verse until the current "season" ends. They technically almost did it back when Ghost Game aired when they showed how Hiro was supposed to be the protagonist of Dreamers too
>>483421429I’d be curious to see how long UA stays that high. Tried it at Nats and it’s clunky as fuck. If it lasts a while it will be purely on brand. Granted that’s what OP does already but that game is at least still pretty intuitive though simpler than Digi.
>>483421429Literally who is buying all this One Piece? 90% of the side characters are ugly shitters. Is it just Japan's obsession?
>>483423136Dragonball predates digi by a couple years. But they had to reboot it cause they ran the original game into the ground.
>>483414012I can't believe I missed out on Arise.
>Taichi, COMANDANTE YUU, Hiro, Tacoomer, and Taichi (V-Tamer) are all canon to each other now>>483425659inb4 the Story game is still not out because they have to retool it to fit in with LiberatorAnd Liberator has a greek ruins-style area in Lacuna...
>>483423361>there wouldn't be a GG DVD release due to market declineIm still waiting for the "Ghost Game: Best Partner" CD release
>>483425893Did the original Dragon Ball card game use the same Security and Memory Gauge system?
>>483392617>ywn evolve and de evolve her to have high ABI and perfect stats
>>483423361The actual fuck is this obscenely retarded shit? They canned Ghost Game, the VBs, and possibly even drove the games into even worse development hell because they want to focus even MORE on shit like Adventure? After the disappointments that were Tri, Kizuna, Colon, and le Big Inning? That shit is fucking strangling their potential revenue and DAMAGING both Adventure and the Digimon IP as a whole, not growing it, for fuck's sake! They keep strangling non-Adventure successes to death as well with their faggotry like the VBs getting canned due to their failed metaverse collab faggotry that ate up all the budget with ZERO RETURNS, and the only remaining thing ACTUALLY providing growth, the TCG, being treated like a whore and an experimental side project so they can yet again take from Digimon and try to replicate its rare successes with their bigger franchises instead. Fuck, to actually say shit like "keeping the strength of the IP" after whoring Adventure out to all those shitty no-name games too, the cheek of these faggot boomer suits. 10/10 I'm actually mad, fuck you Bandai.
>>483426761>They canned Ghost GamePost discarded, don't believe everything you read online
>>483425026Sounds familiar
>>483427109Doesn't Pokemon just abandon the previous mechanics (Mega Evolution, Z-Moves, Gigantomax) when they're promoting the current mechanic?
>>483426270No. It had mana/energy system where at the start of your turn you could turn any card into your hand into an energy card. I enjoyed it in the early sets but it had poweceeep out the ass and you pretty much had to throw your decks out every set.
>>483427305Then the same goes for Digimon. It had other card games before it came up with the current Security mechanic, and now Bandai is whoring it out to every other franchise they own
>>483427443That's a completely different thing tho
I hope it's just multiverse stuff and not trying to mangle all of the Digimon media into a single continuity
>>483426057
>>483427234Sometimes they bring back older ones and put them in in weird ways. They always take out the good stuff and say its because it would get stale.
>>483427576I always like how they remove pokémon following you just to introduce it back to sell DLC
>>483427551
>>483427504I don't think we're on the same topic. I was talking about how Bandai has used the Security mechanic for four different card games, including Dragon Ball and Digimon. I understand that Dragon Ball also had another card game that predates Digimon, which used a mana/energy system. But I'm not sure what this has to do with Bandai releasing the same card game four different times with different paint jobs
Can't wait for the Ganba-Liberator live-action/anime where not-Taichi has a million fucking Taichi cards (and a handful of other red tamers that only show up once) he can slash that give him a set of fucking goggles and allow his Koromon to evolve into a billion different Agumons (no other child-levels, just Agumon variants). This is our future, I guess. Thanks Bandai.>>483426913>Anime ends uneventfully, doesn't get any kind of follow-up, its sister project (the VB) gets nuked not long afterwards, gets no significant merch or figures after the VB, and doesn't get a Bluray release allegedly because "muh IP branding">um, acshually, Bandai didn't can anythingYou've got a point if you're saying the alleged stock-meeting thing is just a nonsensical rumour, but that would make the entire post irrelevant anyway, and not specifically the comment about Ghost Game.
>>483427742Yeah and it sucks because your Pokemon could be too slow or too fast and warp to you in SWSH and you can't bring them in the main game. In SV they'll just go back in their ball if you are too far from them.
>>483428074Ghost Game was meant to end when it did, Arcturusmon and Proximamon were always meant to be VB-only
If they are that desperate for Adventure stuff instead of ruining it even more with sequels, why not just animate all these audio dramas and extra novels (and hell, maybe even the plays too) into OVAs? There is a bunch of stuff there that 90% of the fanbase has never even heard about and animating them would make it more accessible to them while making extra Adventure content, literally a win-win situation here
>>483427742At least it was there from the start in SV. Hopefully it stays that way. >>483423361I always thought this was the case. What exactly changes?
>>483428582That's not what I was talking about, THOUGH. That said, I don't think it's good to be so dismissive about the way Ghost Game progressed towards the end either. It was very low energy past the midway point and the way everything got rushed towards the end, with plenty that was either unresolved or lazily handwaved, strikes me as being either unplanned or poorly written. Whatever the case may be, being defensive or so headstrong about that narrative doesn't seem to be wise considering Bandai's behaviour, the way GG is being swept under the rug, and the narrative quality (or lack thereof) of the ending.
>>483427443Security is just a less retarded prize cards from Pokémon. The memory system is the big apppeal and none of the other Bandai tcg’s use it.
Which is the best Digimon to keep as a maid?

>>483432914Fear the power of the yumes
>>483429427>>483428074The result of Ghost Game's writer having a mental breakdown.
>>483430729>>483432914>Every series will have an Angoramon from now on.
>>483432914>Liberator has a bigger female castHmmm...
>>483433724I look at her twitter and she seems to be more of a Hiro and Gamamon girl.
>>483434327Anon, every anime has a large female cast nowadays. Weebs fucking love waifus
>>483434450You are correct.
>>483425178>success>kizuna>02 movieSo, I guess everyone can get ready for the Chink Century cinematic universe, since that's where they made the money
>>483433724And that's a good thing!
>>483435523Kizuna sold 30k BD in the US
>>483423361
The running Toei Animation IPs.
>>483438867After we have DB Daima in october and?
>>483438315>what's important is still the sameBandai sucking at managing Digimon>even if its shape has changedBandai Namco merger
https://note.com/fair_koala979/n/naf1250072988?sub_rt=share_b&d=s6cXy__rtchThe story of a Ghost game otaku who went to Toei Animation's general meeting of shareholders.
>>483423361More ADVENTUUUUUUUURE and Adventure ONLY. They don't want Digimon to be a bunch of separate stories; everything will be connected like the MCU. Hope all you people cheering Habu's firing enjoy Digimon Story Adventure
>>483439269Are shareholders allowed to disclose stuff like that? Not that Toei decides to retaliate and sick Miles Edgeworth on her ass.
>>483424458It's more marketable as a brand. It doesn't create confusion for dummies, and not having a set continuity means you can drop characters into any scenario that marketing thinks of. Sonic is doing the same thing, but even harder since they have a bunch of rigid mandates like not allowing characters to reference older games- in fact, the comics aren't allowed to mention the games at all.
>>483425178>they were maybe disappointed by its performance,the funny thing is Ghost Game being episodic and not having an overarching storyline was literally something mandated by the suits in the first place
>>483439507>Are shareholders allowed to disclose stuff like that?yes? they can do whatever they want.
>>483423361BDs in general don't sell anywhere near as much as they used to outside of movies and specific otaku-centric franchises like Uma Musume and Love Live. After Colon's BDs even sold worse than forgotten seasonals like Visual Prison and Uramichi Oniisan, I'm not surprised they didn't bother trying with Ghost Game.I don't like the sound of that second tweet, though. It's uncomfortably close to the cancerous "cinematic universe" trend that Hollywood is obsessed with.
Get ready for the DCU, Goymamon. Hope you like Agumon.
>>483440027Colon was fucking awful though
>>483440483more like the ADVENTUUUUUUUURE Cinematic Universe
>>483441190They have to pretend that there are other Digimon and humans outside of the OG 8 there.
The faces of the franchise.
>>483441094Yes, but GG's BDs probably would have sold similar numbers. Digimon, like the overwhelming majority of anime, is just not the kind of franchise that can sell BDs in 2024.
So I guess we're getting a bigger version of the Xros Wars manga's "everything's connected" multiverse stuff just like SMT. Shoto and Taichi are 100% appearing in the upcoming Story game
>>483423361>shitpost and made fun of the old spic headcanons of a unified timeline and marc's spamming of multiverse shit that drove Konaka out of twitter>Now this happensIt's your fault, /digi/! Hand over your meme license!
>>483441939>old spic headcanons of a unified timeline and marc's spamming of multiverse shitI feel like we might not be the main cause of this
>>483441769So, will we get a better crossover than Huntards?
>>483441389>Hnnng!! Taichi I'm hungry but you keep clenching my prolapsed anus instead of giving me food!>>483438867What's that thing between Detective Culoface and the granny show?
>>483442292We're getting Ganbarider: Digimon edition, and it's going to be a live action now that Bandai's tested the waters with Seekers and dumped a bunch of their Toei shares. So no, absofuckinglutely not. It'll be a shit show.
So what I'm hearing, that Ruki cameo in Liberator really WAS RukiWhich means Chronicle and Tamers take place in the same timeline
>>483442425Girls Band Cry.
>>483442987>we are considering various measuresremember when people asked habu all those questions about the games and all he could say was "I'll ask bandai to consider it"
>>483442987>Digimon FestHaven't we already had that though? They aren't trying to say that we have to wait for Digifest 2025 for any news are they...?
>>483443372>Haven't we already had that though?Digifes is in OOOOOOOOOOOODAIBA Day, the one we had early this year was Digicon.
>>483442987>It is lonely to make it slimy and lukewarm.Well, I guess we now have new adjectives to use in regards to Adventure sequels
>Digimon gets two events a year for the sake of announcing new projects>only for 50% of the events being singing the same theme songs that we've heard a thousand times, z-list e-celebs playing card games, some random shit about con or museum booths that literally nobody will visit, and stationary kits for elementary schoolers>25% being card game shit>15% being p-bandai announcements because Bandai no longer has the confidence to stock Digimon in actual retail stores>and the last 10% being the most pathetically vague "w-we have something planned, please wait" 'announcements' or literal fucking nothing burger videos that were supposed to be some kind of big surprise when it's just a live action ad for something we already know about or a literal fucking slideshow "celebrating" a milestone instead of actually doing anything of substance for the anniversaryI don't know why they don't just stick everything on xitter and call it a day at this point.

>>483444930they really are the most miserable fucking things for everybody. Even Pokemon Directs manage to get people excited and they're 90% mobile games. Everybody just sits through the Digimon events disgusted and full of dread.
>>483444930don't forget the agumon roleplay where he talks about his favorite foods
>>483444930>15% being p-bandai announcements because Bandai no longer has the confidence to stock Digimon in actual retail storesI still cannot believe they showed the Vaccine Metal Greymon kit and said "Remember this? That sure was a thing wasn't it." No announcement of the Virus one, not even a reissue since preorders for the kit were getting cancelled due to underproduction/too much demand. Just a reminder that it happened. Unreal.

/digi/ should just pool their money together and buy Bamco and Toei stocks at this point. Surely all five of us could be the next Bamco board.
>Doomposter talking to himself Pathetic
>>483447695If it were doomschizo you'd hear a lot more inane comparisons.
>>483447517Would you want to meet your partner in this manner Digi? They're a part of You after all.
>>483423361No more standalone anime or games. Welcome to the Di-Gi-Oh era.On the plus side, that also means no more awful Adventure movies. The Beginning was The Ending.
>>483448007>On the plus side, that also means no more awful Adventure movies.hahahahaahaaaaa if you think Adventure isn't going to be the main continuity. It's all Taichi from here on out
>>483448193Hand it over. Now.
>>483423361this is good news. We need deep lore and consistentcy. People forget that digimon is not games, merch, media, digimon is first and foremost a roleplay toy. All of the branches of this IP exist to get you to roleplay with the pet ghost they are putting in your head.
>>483425026>armor evolutionoriginal and good. This franchise lacks a cohesive battle gimmick, so evolution choice is good.>card slashoriginal and good. Turns monster collecting into a spell book like FF8 or Greed Island. >spirit evolutionI don't like tamers combining with digimon very much, but it can exist. The real gimmick of season 4 is that everything is displayed as fractal codes. This is the most important gimmick in digimon and should be retrocannon in everything. Capturing a digimon should be about grabbing onto its code-cord with your digivice, ghost busters style>burst modethis is just the v-tamer gimmick but flashier. Power up without evolution is fine. The only bad thing about burst mode is that we don't have more. >digixrosthis is just DNA digivolution except it sometimes looks like card slash. I really enjoyed this season despite thinking shoutmon is the worst thing to ever happen to the digipedia. Gaossmon is adorable. >applimonI still have mixed feelings here. I love integrating alot of appmon into old evo trees but you have to randomly assign things of the same level to champion or ultimate , its very arbitrary.
>>483448167Nah, Adventure, specifically the young 1999 cast, will remain as Toei's merchandise slop.We'll be getting a new set of main characters for Digimon Card Game: The Animation and Digimon Story: Liberator Battle.
>>483428074I have workshopped a game mechanic where players can slide evolution their rookies around. It started as a way to give goblimon some shine but its really funny giving agumon 8 forms.
>>483441769Digimon and Pokemon both exist inside the megaten canon as direct descendants of the demon summoning project. Bill (gates) in pokemon is Steven (hawking) in smt. Digimon is the good timeline so we get Gennai instead.
>>483450453>Digimon is the good timeline so we get Gennai instead.And his friend, Benjamin (Franklin).
>>483450453>>483451160You now remember that in Appmon, Haru's grandpa was friends with leading AI researchers.
>>483451160Franklin badge connection? Mother and Matrix come from the same etymology ( Matrix being mother pluralized so hard that its like ' as many mothers as fit in a whole bloodline' )>>483451425chat GPT is very fond of digimon. Digimon is a story about Kaiju Rehabilitation, like SSSS Gridman or Ultraman Rising. That is megas become so human, to be like Gridman.
>>483450453Pokemon aren't as malleable by human thoughts and feelings like demons and Digimon are.
>>483452496Yes, because pokemon was made as an insult to the west, replacing God with consumerism. Pokemon are very malleable to money. Vitamins, technical machines ( how are they depicted in the card game) , movie 1 cyber pokemon. Bill's computer system , porygon's demonic effects in our base reality, id software discovering polygons on mars , smogon hackers controling the metagame.
>>483451425More Digimon media needs to have 1950s flashbacks so we can have more eccentric grandpas in the franchise.
>>483453782Well, we had one with traumatic PTSD flashbacks to the seventies, that led him to straight up wipe the existence of his own sister from his mind.

>>483424181>More like Adventure and 02, probably even Xros Wars and Huntersthat's retarded. having only one long, established continuity makes it impossible to pick up the series from any entry, which ends up locking out newcomers.>>483424458mario doesn't have much in terms of canon or story beyond some shared elements so you don't miss out on anything if you play games out of order. every entry is mostly self-contained, and most gimmicks get dropped by the next game.>>483424826>a lot of Digimon's problems come from the fact that A LOT of stuff is one-and-done deals/gimmicks that don't connect to the rest of the franchisethe entire point of making disjointed series is that there's nothing preventing them from making a new season and making a new entry that picks up cado surasshu or X-antibodies. they can always pick and choose what elements to keep and which ones to drop, much like Final Fantasy does with different iterations of characters like Cid, Biggs, Wedge, Gilgamesh, etc.you can have crossover episodes like xros or appmon did, but staking everything on one continuity is a terrible idea as it forces newcomers to watch the entire thing up to the latest iteration.

>>483460710X-antibodies don't exist outside of natural carriers like dorumon, ryudamon, etc. other than those, they don't have appearances in any media outside of the X-evo movie and a few games (world 4, decode, gacha)
>>483459930digimon has multiverse shit already; it's just that weebs are too retarded to understand them so they seethe and shit themselves about them
>>483463552Congratulations on not being able to read.
>>483463642congratulations on seething and shitting yourself like I said you would
>>483463754>no argumentMaking the franchise entirely multiverse would fuck it up because there would be no room for any creativity.
>>483463552this. We have had Ryo , we have had the wild hunt, this is old news. I prefer a hyper-continuity anyway and my headcanon is well massaged to be as big as possible ( like venusmon's tits )
>>483464325>we have had the wild huntWhat?
>>483464419I'm assuming Anon is referring to Young Hunters.
>>483463552>digimon has multiverse shit alreadythey're more like random cameos or one-off crossovers without lasting significance. i.e. you don't have characters visiting each other on weekends to play card games and shit.Ryo is the only character who's managed to cross universes, and even then it's severely downplayed and seems like a new character (no mentions of Adventure or the WS games in Tamers)not even dragon ball goes full multiverse shit despite having SDBH having multiple versions of characters on-screen (super, xeno), and its story beats have no bearing on the mainline SDB manga.
>>483465297Ryo more likely got yeeted by zeed across the universal barrier, beacuse zeed is from soul hackers

>>483465891>can't even answer the question put to himAh, you're just trolling. I should have known.
>>483465717Multiverses are neither good nor good inherinitly. They are getting a bit overused. Digimon has ultra levels that can destroy reality and rebirth it with attack a and attack b, we don't have much of a choice here. If you don't have enough thelema to survive a universal reset yngmi
>>483466121You're dodging the question. You're the one making the accusation, so you need to explain yourself. But you won't because all you can do is continue to, you guessed it, seethe and shit yourself.
>>483465891Because 90% of multiverse shit are just here to lazily fix plot hole or make shitty crossover.
>>483466385This entire discussion started with you making a baseless accusation. You can't explain yourself.

>>483466132Eh, a lot of those attack names and descriptions seem overblown as fuck, especially those from the ref book. The closest you get to powerlevel wankery on that level was Frontiers finale and mayyybeee PizzaCrust if he wasn't talking out of his ass
>>483465872multiverse shit is cancerous because it makes it impossible to follow a story. you have to hunt for 15 different issues spread across different continuities, that reference each other in a page or two. then you have multiple archives of hundreds of comics to wade through.you eventually realize that you're not reading a comic, but a spaghetti mess where each noodle is kneaded by different cooks.it's like reading a sci-fi book and then you find yourself reading a kitchen cookbook and a knitting manual
>>483466552>>483459930>This. Multiverse shit would kill Digimon.There, I've humored you. Now make your argument or forever prove that you're just crying because your little brain is too weak to comprehend multiverses.
>>483466901There it is! That's what I was looking for! The prepackaged weeb argument that says "I've never consumed something like western comics before, but by god I'll continue to spew out my ignorant preconceived notions as fact."It's so fucking easy to spot you "people". "Reading is too hard and the wiki article I read confused me :'("
>>483467015That isn't even an attempt at a retort. You can't explain how multiverses are supposedly a good thing.
>>483467368>let me continue to twist and squirm and refuse to justify myself while running away from my own wordsI accept your concession.
>>483467536So you never had an argument in the first place. What a shock.
>>483467679Why are you unwilling to even try to defend your own words? Could it be that you don't even have a fully formed argument and are scared of making even more of a fool of yourself than you already have?
>>483467843You have zero self-awareness.
>>483467367>It's so fucking easy to spot you "people". "Reading is too hard and the wiki article I read confused me :'("Sounds like future Adventure movie writers in the making.
>>483468031lmao I still can't believe that she LITERALLY said this.
>>483467367it's not reading that's the problem. there's a reason why a single manga outsells the entire multiverse slop-loving western comics industry.captcha JP X VR
>>483468802Wow congratulations! You're two for two on the "not knowing what the fuck you're talking about" checklist! I'll humor you though, Paco, because I know they don't have comics in your country. In the 70s the comic book companies all signed an agreement with a distribution company to exclusively allow comic books to be distributed through the direct market, where retailers must purchase comics through an intermediary company from the manufacturer. This limited comic sales to specialty retailers. That means brick-and-mortar comic book shops. So over time the companies literally bled themselves dry by forcing comics to be bought ONLY via brick and mortar stores and ONLY via pre-order. If a comic isn't ordered months ahead of time sight unseen, that comic cannot stay in publication because sales can't catch up with production costs. Marvel went bankrupt before you were born due to this, with it only later getting a huge boon from the ebay market after the advent of stuff like variant covers. While the market fell out of those ages ago that's still a big driver of Marvel's sales.Because they're locked into this model - and they ARE locked in; DC has on multiple occasions tried to circumvent the direct market distribution system and been successfully sued for it - they can't successfully respond to market demands. Trades exist but a trade can only come out after floppies, and I explained the issue with floppies above. Comic sales are more expensive than manga due to this model- it would be like selling individual chapters of a manga for 5 dollars each compared to as a volume. Distributers have also fought tooth and nail against the adoption of online distribution as well.So no, it's not because "muh multiverse" or "muh woke." The issue with the comics industry is rooted in a broken distribution model Of course I now fully expect your "n...nuh uh it's not that it's my personal obsession that caused it!" post to follow. You may now proceed to seethe.
>>483470272You are absolutely fucking raging because others don't like multiverses. Get a grip.

>>483473240>>483473725>everyone is the same Anon
>>483473725Because it doesn't. Multiple games had characters from different media show up and the card game has Digimon from lots of different things without issue. The only real bad example was Young Hunters and that was because it was already bad with the crossover aspect only being the last few episodes.
>>483473738To be fair somebody made the claim that multiverses will kill Digimon because multiverses killed comics so it's directly related. I haven't really seen a rebuttal and you really do sound pissed off
>>483474458V-Tamer explicitly said Adventure and V-Tamer are two universes and the multiverse plays into Cyber Sleuth pretty hard with Ulforce too

>>483509419Huh, actually is real. Wonder if Dopemon is there.
>>483509592
>>483509419They didn't even give em levels.Not surprised 2bh
>>483509419Huh, so the mystery section was the Appmon Encyclopedia. Kinda disappointing, but whatever.
>>483510061I didn't see anything that wasn't previously seen there. Which is to be expected, but I kind of wonder what Santamon would be like. At least the other scrapped ones sound like a Gatchmon recolor or magazine tie-ins.>>483510306They already have grades, which are extremely similar to levels.

>>483378917>>483509419>>483510369That's it? That was the "Coming Soon"?
>>483510991Pretty much. Probably an excuse to add Appmon to the TCG
>>483510991I'm more annoyed the profiles don't explain what the special moves do.
So, this basically confirms Appmon are getting re-added as Digimon, right?>>483510496>They already have grades, which are extremely similar to levelsThey are even using the colors that match the corresponding Digimon level (God uses the same green as Ultimate, Super uses the same blue as Adult, and so on)>>483510991Basically adds a big bunch of "new" designs
>>483511513Depends on what "re-added as Digimon" means. At this stage they at least have them in a different listing.
>>483423361PFHAHAHHA THIS CONFIRMS ADVENTUREVERSE ONLYPFFHAHHAHAHAHAH
>>483511513Other way around. They made an entire section dedicated to JUST the Appmon. They're not considered as Digimon, so there won't be much crossover like using Mirrormon or Resshamon as Child levels for Ancient Wisemon and Trailmon
>>483509419They need to stop relying on cheap machine translations.
>>483511758Xros Wars mons also kept their own setting's weirdness until Bandai said "fuck this" and just made them work with the regular rules, I can see the same happening with Appmon
>>483509419>>483511906My favorite Appmon.

DC and Marvel both started with a man on fire character too, which is why meramon is there. I do feel bad for boltmon tho >>483509419didnt I tell them to do this this thread or last thread? Funny, I watched our war game with the wife today, after new 02 movie and DMX. Good day.

We may see Appmon in Liberator
>>483512589>>483512010They still put the Xros Wars mons into the main DRB and gave them proper levels. If they wanted to merge Appmon into Digimon proper, they would have done the same
>>483512508Masaru is going to punch the tears from Taichi's eyes.
>>483512413They need to give Boltmon a better line. A flaming biker turning into a boring Frankenstein with an axe is lame
>>483512891Just go Wizar->Pump->Bolt then
>>483512891Goblimon>Ogremon>Rebellimon>Boltmon
>>483513001Or make him an Andromon evo, since he's a Hi-Andromon counterpart anyway

If they do add them to the card game "Digital Application" sounds like a decent name for the booster.

>>483514010>It looks like more SOON is actually soon.when they don't announce the game stuff, I want you to come to this thread and post a full apology for ever doubting doomchads.
>>483515791They literally said there's gonna talk about the anime anniversary and the upcoming comics, no-one is expecting a game announcement from this
>>483515910>gonna talk about the anime anniversaryits funny how they spend an hour at every single one of these events talking about ADVENTUUUUUUUUURRRREEEEEE's anniversaries and shit.
doomchads run this franchise , specially when bandai are their bigget allies
>>483516018Because there's nothing else worth talking about. They're not working on an anime right now, the game is stuck in development hell, and they're not even selling new V-Pets. All they could do is tide over fans with these mediocre reminders about what they have done
appmon are indeed going to be integrated into the rest of the franchise, but only as lesser creatures subservient to digimonpic related, the first digimon to own an appmon slave (note the mouse's tail)
>>483517278no one is stopping them from making things but themselves. If they can't do the bare minimum they shouldn't do the events.
>>483517341I've wanted that for a long time. Appmon as supplemental supporters would be cool.
>>483517278>Because there's nothing else worth talking aboutthere were people defending the digifest lmao like if you have nothing to show why even make a big event?
>>483517278>Because there's nothing else worth talking aboutThe existing and upcoming comics?The card game?The V-Pet that's literally in production right now (Pendulum Color WG, ME, and VB)?
>>483517518>The existing and upcoming comics?They are gonna bring it up in the upcoming announcement>The card game?They already had a stream about it. That's where we saw Luminamon (Nene)>The V-Pet that's literally in production right nowNot a new announcement. All that's left is to have a formal announcement closer to launch (September)
https://x.com/digimonweb_net/status/1805805858921890283???
>>483517390Bandai clearly doesn't think Digimon brings them enough money to keep pumping out new products for it. And whatever does become popular gets slapped with a new IP in order to get even more money
>>483517926"remember adventure? let's sing the theme songs again! here's a clipshow of clips from adventure! buy the BD of Beginning!"
Doomposter going on overdrive
>>483517505>there were people defending the digifest lmao*Digicon, Digifest is the shit that happens every august (and likely got replaced this year with A FUCKING CONCEPT ART GALLERY IN JAPAN )
imagine thinking you are getting anything but an edit of the anime with butterfly.....again LMAO
Digimon is ghey. Pokemon, YGO, and Beyblade are superior
>>483509419Are Tackmon, Swipemon and Flickmon babies?
>>483513001pump bolt does have the OG (golden) axe connection, i think bolt was a pumpkin/ghostrider jogress>>483513042very good>>483517341I always liked the idea of appmon being able to upgrade the digivice like digimon upgrade file city. However, this concept would probobly nerf the digivice too much in my canon
>>483518545They don't have levels, like Dantemon
>>483514010I wonder if they'll actually announce DigiFes happening this year.>>483517341Love that little guy.
>>483519597They have the purple border of Baby II
>>483486632The endpoint of evolution is death...
Are we gonna get trolled by Toei again?
>>483519727Then I guess they're the Appmon equivalent of babies. It's just that Appmon never gave that level an actual name. Anyone have any idea what the difference is between the three?
>>483510991At least they didn't drag it out too much
>>483519958>For the 25th anniversary anime you get a 2 minute amv made from the best shots in Adventure.>please support the franchise!
>>483520407Why did they even make the "Coming Soon"? They could've just shadow dropped the Appmon Reference Book and made the tweet announcing that
>>483519817There better be money involved, you dumb fairy.
>>483518070>Bandai clearly doesn't think Digimon brings them enough money to keep pumping out new products for it.that's such a cop-out>make cool TCG>launch 4 other card games that rip off said card game>funnel all money away from cool TCG to the other 4>bitch and moan when cool TCG predictably underperformssame shit for killing off the VB, which was killed because despite Digimon's good numbers, their kamen rider/MHA/kimetsu no yaiba/etc. lines failed to sell
>>483522204>their kamen rider/MHA/kimetsu no yaiba/etc. lines failed to sellI mean, it does make sense with some Kamen Riders since they have transformations and alt modes since the heisei era, but how the hell do you justify the whole evolution thing with shit like fucking mha? Does Deku fucking tfs into the brown bunny after powering up?
>>483522890>how the hell do you justify the whole evolution thing with shit like fucking mha?you tell me. I can't really make sense of it.
appmon 2 here we go
Bandai as a company is legit retarded , like really really retarded
>>483524197>reverse flashHe is extremely slow?
>>483524197worst part is how they announced the VB BE just after releasing the Hero. what the fuck were they thinking?
>>483524197>Literally SupertroonEat your heart out, Morrison!
I still don't get why Digimon is being given the cold shoulder by Bandai. Pokemon is in the shitter thanks to releasing casualied, glitchy, unfinished games with N64 graphics, nickel and diming players with DLC and storage fees, and injecting cancerous DEI garbage (including uglified characters), so now's as good a chance as ever to reclaim the monster taming crown.it seems simply baffling to me that they haven't but considering the current state of pokemon maybe it's for the best
>>483531035Because Digimon is inferior to Shin Megami Tensei and Dragon Quest Monsters. Also Digimon's overseas fanbase is just as fucked as modern Pokemon
>>483531035As bad as the new Pokemon games are, didn't they break sales records?
>>483531965Pretty much. People just wanna believe that Pokemon will fuck up hard enough to someone else to be the king and/or the people making Pokemon games stop being lazy. Palworld did near Pokemon numbers, and it was forgotten in a month because its just Ark with really bootleg looking Pokemon.
>>483531035>"Sir, the competition in the monster training genre is in the floor right now">"You know what that means?">"Sir, yes sir!">Then Bandai Namco announces One Piece: Kung-Fu Dugong Trainer for Nintendo Switch
>>483531035they just don't give a single a shit about the digimon IP because it doesn't give them max revenue MHA/Kamen are big so of course we are going to whore this product designed to be digimon focus with those other franchises to maximize revenue even if the digimon sales were enoughWhy do you think Bandai loves nintendo so much? because is guantereed revenue Same reason why bandai majority of products are adventure related One piece is big so is no wonder why they prefer to sacrifice digimon if they can max revenue the tcg market even if its cannibalizing his own products and it doesn't end there they even short print one piece tcg to inflate the prices to maximize all the money because OP is that popular right now
>>483531965>didn't they break sales records?yeah, but palworld really gave them a run for their money despite being an early access ark clone from a no-name studio.>>483532612>they just don't give a single a shit about the digimon IP because it doesn't give them max revenueI'm still convinced Digimon is deliberately sabotaged to avoid souring relations with Nintendo. didn't they designate 2nd party dev teams (Studio 2 and Studio S) not too long ago?captcha GR0GY
One Piece is just inherently more stable than Digimon when it comes to making money. A shonen that suffers the inherent flaws of going on for too long is superior to a Tamagotchi cartoon that implodes on itself the moment it gets a bad enough episode.
>>483533815If Nintendo is that scared of Digimon, then why didn't they bring lawsuits to Palworld (outside some sped making unofficial paid mods) or Yo-Kai Watch when that was a thing?
>>483532456Its how it is. Besides, if Digimon did defeat Pokemon, it would deteriorate in the same ways Yo-Kai Watch did, but less gay baby jail nonsense
>>483534219>scaredI only said it wouldn't make Nintendo/TPC/Creatures/GF very happy to have someone stealing their thunder>lawsuitsthey're guilty of ripping off DQM and SMT themselves so it's not like they have a lot of room to go around threatening to sue everybody. anyway, YKW's creatures aren't quite the same with all the spiritual stuff, and palworld's genre is too different (sandbox crafting game)
digimon.net/fun/vote/ New vote: sprites
>>483536469it's obvious the actual question is "which toys do you want to see more of?"
>>483536469Anyone that votes 3 is a tasteless nigger
>>483537252I predict the results will be 16x16, 16x16 color, VB, Digivice, Xros Loader.
Are Digimon superior to humans?
>>483536469is it me or VB's sprites seem shrunk? the lineup in the image is noticeably smaller>>483538309>more clarity than B&W DM keychains>doesn't suffer from oversized head syndrome like xros loader>larger, more expressive sprites showing off more detailsI dunno, it seems like a good choice along with the VB's style to me.
>>483539580Nah
>>483539580>VB's sprites seem shrunk?they're definitely scaled down
>visited Japan for work the other week>went through quite a few card and hobby stores>barely saw any Digimon products whatsoever even when searching for themIt was genuinely a bit depressing. There were one or two things scattered here or there but the most I saw was a very small section in a dedicated Bandai store and a crate of the cards amongst other dead cards games at the back of a TCG. Also, does the One Piece TCG seriously use stock anime art for half it's cards? How the fuck do people stomach something so cheap? The way One Piece overall was whored out in so many stores was pretty sad too. I now wonder how many recent characters and forms are just editor mandates to sell more merch.
>>483536469I voted 2 because those color sprites are fun to make but VB sprites are the best in appearance for sure (when done right)
this thread is just schizo doomposting shipping or bitching about adventure ad naseum the most boring shit i ever seen
https://x.com/digimonweb_net/status/1805927919648420055the manga that won the contest will be released on August 10
>>483510991>>483520827Bandai gets more powerful with every subsequent disappointment. You must be given a faint glimmer of hope, solely so that Bandai may snuff it out. It's almost as if Bandai is enacting some sort of ritual; perhaps after a few more disappointments they'll be able to summon a Digimon like le pizza crust to the real world after successfully digitalising the essence of disappointment and failure into pure data.
>>483512508Ghost Game's ending is suddenly a lot more ominous with the way Quantumon was able to partition off a new digital world with the GG gang working on the frontiers to develop it. If Quantumon shows up in Liberators or whatever new project they have planned they're absolutely going to start asspulling cheap crossovers with multiversal shenanigans. Fuck, could you imagine if the ayy lmao Villainmon foreshadowing gets recycled as a lousy excuse to give Omegamon yet another evolution and boss fight instead of letting Proximamon handle it? We're going to end up like Dragon Ball with all the kill-stealing and jobbing the multiverse is about to introduce.
>>483554009>Yabuno making a RK mangalol
>>483545973>Also, does the One Piece TCG seriously use stock anime art for half it's cardsdigimon did that too with the shitty ass tamer cards
>>483531965>>483532370>>483533815the game market is different now because EVERY game sells more since the industry has grown so much. The highest selling games in the past would be huge flops today. Plus the Switch is the highest selling console ever
>>483531035>>483532612in a stockholder's meeting Bandai admitted that Digimon was one of their most profitable properties, but it was primarily due to overseas consumers. So there's your answer: racist japs don't want to make a product only westerners consume. The exact same thing happens with the Sonic games.
>>483524197>ShazamFuck you Marvel I will never call him that. Nobody gives a fuck about Carol
>>483374173I don't recognize these girls, but they are far from kickstarting yuri in the franchise.On a different note, do you wish we get an adaptation of the Digimon Next manga? I really liked the premise, but it could take some tweaking for new Digimon partners and make the execution of the Digi-Fragments improved than before.
>Bandai Namco Online declares bankruptcyNow all the live service games will be rolled into regular Bamco games.
>>483439269Oh, this bitch. I heard she was there to fire questions regarding yuri in various Bandai-run franchises (particularly Gundam, which is a huge deal to prioritize yuri throughout an entire show) and how Bandai's franchises are now geared to even adults. Digimon is probably an afterthought despite being a huge Ghost Game fan.
>digimon getting a new manga>It's a gag manga>About the royal knightsDead franchise
>>483563791To be fair, based on gay shit like DEI and the general fuckery gaijin fanbases are made of, I can understand not wanting to pander to westoids. Inafune's lust for gaijin did bring in Capcom's funnier dark ages.
>>483542029>using the shitty ass Pulsemon and OMEGAAAAA spritesit's like they want to rig the poll themselves

>>483576579AAAHHHHHH GET ME OUT OF THIS HELLISH NIGHTMARE
>>483576579>ADVENTURE 'S 25TH ANNIVERSARY At least they finally dropped all pretense that it was "the anime's" anniversary...
>>483576579FUCK!
>>483563791I would rather Digimon die than be made with americans and spics in mind honestly.>The exact same thing happens with the Sonic games.Even more so. I shudder to think of a game made with angloid Sonic fans in mind.
>>483580642>I would rather see these franchises be run into the ground by retarded gooks who hate them than let something actually good come from themYou will never be Japanese
>>483574120This KaitoxTakuma fujo is fucking annoying with how obsessed she is with killing Aoi or talk shit about her.Also creativity bankrupt too. As she copied- or as she said- "inspired" by basically identical past picture.
>>483576579Do they really think anybody gives a shit about these endless half-assed promotional videos? People would literally be more excited for a title drop or screenshot of a beta of the game than see this garbage, but I guess the marketing team has to justify their jobs somehow.
Well at least they won´t announce an anime that will release at the same time than Daima.
>>483581343Don't want to be.
>>483581343Unless DEI implodes itself and fucks off, pandering to Ameriburgers and Latinxs is a bad idea. Then again Capcom's late 00s - early 2010s westoid pandering was pretty bad, so even in a world without woke money laundering shit, its still a bad idea

>>483581540*also tried to steal Aoi's love for rock music and gave it to Kaito too because the latter just lack any personality aside from "MIUUU!!!" and she just projected Yamato hard on him.
>>483580642At least Sonic kinda works with gaijin appeal. Digimon appealing to westoids would just replace the robot knights with WarGreymon and Renamon brand furfag bait and add brown people
>>483582521Omnimon is also popular in the West just like Omegamon is popular in Japan.
>>483581540>>483582374Mindbroken by rival chads. Wanting rivals to have little to no edge is how you get boring mistakes like the blonde in picrel
>>483583079That fujo was the one having Aoi rent-free in her head though though.I myself give 0 fuck about Kaito because he literally has nothing worth giving fuck except in harmony, before he chickened out and got CLOWN anyway.If anything fujos are the one who tried to deedge Kaito because they love to pretend harmony doesn't exist.
So, watch the pv, keep reading Liberator and wait for december jump festa, right?
>>483583449The new manga will start on the 10th of august
>>483576579>with new scenes by Kizuna - Last Evolution and The Beginning's Yumeta CompanyHOLY SPOCK, GUYS! CAN YOU IMAGINE? AN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADVENTURE CLIPSHOW... BUT NOW IT COMES WITH A COUPLE OF ONE-SECOND SCENES FROM THE LATEST AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADVENTURE MOVIES ADDED IN-BETWEEN! HOLD ONTO YOUR FACT CHECKERS, DIGIBOYS AND DIGIGIRLS! THEY MIGHT EVEN PLAY BUTTERFLY IN THE BACKGROUND TOO!!!
>>483582521>At least Sonic kinda works with gaijin appeal.Sonic literally only appeals to westerners. Sonic Superstars sold 4000 copies in all of Japan. It's absolutely impossible to understate how irrelevant Sonic is as a brand in Japan.
How many version of the ver. 20th are there?
>>483524197WHY IS CYBORG ON A VITAL BRACLET WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS TIMELINE

Hope these are all longer than a one-shot. And I guess the contest winner will be revealed later.
>>483574120>and then Plutomon eats Saki in order to "become one"

>>483590980OMEGAAAA girl is cute at least
stop making 20th shellswe dont want more 20th shells
>>483591982That would be interesting. But then I'd rather have a manga focusing on "Lila" experiencing a weird and wacky human life around the world.
>>483592737Presumably they are cheap to produce.
>>483592930over saturation will do them more harm in the long run
>>483593583How though? Collab with fashion brands means people not normally interested in Digimon might buy them.
>>483590980It feels like they will be longer than a one-shot
Let's see >First 4 years of the 2010s>GamesDigimon world redigitze released in 2012Decode in 2013 Lost evolution in 2010Digimon Story: Super Xros Wars RedDigimon Story: Super Xros Wars Blue in 2011Digimon adventure in 2013All star rumble 2014Masters US release 2011Digimon Collectors 2011Digimon Fusion Fighters 2014>Other Digimon Xros manga Digimon World Re:Digitize (manga) just 2 chapters Digimon World Re:Digitize: Encode >Anime Digimon Xros wars 2010 >Vpets and digivicesDigimon mini xros series Digivice Ver.15thDigimon Xros loader>First 4 years of the 2020s>GamesDigimon survive a VN Digimon Super Rumble only for Korea Digimon New Century only for China >Anime Digimon adventure: a remake Digimon ghost game >MoviesKizuna The beginning >Other games Digimon tcg >MangaDigimon dreamers Digimon Liberator >Novel Digimon seekers >Vpets and digivices Too tired to name but 2020s wins easily hereSo overall we got way less video games, only one considering the others are restricted to one region each The anime side is fine The tcg is fine but it declined in ranking and revenue in Japan due to bandai bringing 3 competitors but I guess it will be fine as long as the global market is strongWe got 1 web novel, 1 short manga, 1 webcomic The good thing is that all 3 are original works unlike the 2010s ones and vpets are in a great shape The problem is the Video games. It's a desert compared to the first 4 years of the last decade.
>>483594126it’s short term money, once the collab is over the majority of those new buyers won’t stay and that’s not what a company wants. they want and need a returning buyer base. can they bank on the color devices for now for the returning customers? sure, but for how much longer? when will an old device being in color no longer be exciting for fans? sooner than they imagine.
i hate appmons
>>483595994Warudamon will correct you.
>>483590980It's a shame they are not allowed to invent new digimon for these.
>>483594545>The problem is the Video games.Chalk it up to the changing video game landscape and poor management. They can't churn out super low budget handheld games anymore, and the supposed Olympos XII Story game has been in development since 2017.
So, what are the four manga about, did they say? Paradox looks really interesting
>>483599407Sadly, they didn't say anything about the new manga. They just quickly identified each author and what they did previously.
So, are all four coming out August 10?
>>483600994Seems unclear but I would assume so.

All the hoes from Cyber Sluts struggle to get past Yoshino and Tamers rabble like Jian's sister and Impmon's tamers fanart wise. Like how every Gen 6 hoe (even the hags) is horny bait but only the Hex generates art at all.Its not about ugly or beautiful at this point because trashfires like Gen 9 have more art than 98% of Gen 6 (thanks Hex Maniac).

>>483618892As very neat as it would be to see Tlalocmon playing vidya, Lordknightmon having to file her taxes or Diaboromon working as a fry cook or whatever, you just know there'd be people frothing at the mouths that they're not doing badass and cool shit like smoking and murdering and splatting blood everywhere in epic anime fight scenes with swear words and lasers and everything
>>483618892From the key art, it looks like another goofy gag manga by Yabuno. So chances are pretty high for offbeat scenes like you're describing.
>>483619608you don't have to go that far. just showing another side, if only briefly. say, dukemon having a bad day straightening up a picture frame in its castle with the shield and spear for hands

The pokemon company is now hiring all the ESG/DEI "consultation" companies, and even has its own "black diaspora"(lol) non profit, this isn't even the first androgynous character they introduce, for example Goh was officially designed to be an androgynous boy.Pokemon is fucked to shit and it's not coming back, if something looks off you can very safely assume malice and not stupidity.It's just a matter of time before this happens (more) to Bandai, the hedge funds make it financially impossible to grow or keep your size on the international stage without obeying their whims.

Now that the Appmon renaissance is upon us, what are your thoughts on Effecmon?
>>483563791Digimon was only the third most profitable in-house franchise they own, losing to both One Piece and Dragon Ball. So that's why they made the One Piece and Dragon Ball card games. Even then, Dragon Ball is mainly popular overseas as well so it's not like they're only focusing on franchises that are popular locally

>>483624460Latest games are Scarlet and Violet, anon
>>483625009I'd kiss her on the mouth
>>483625657I'd scarlet her violet
>>483625302It's a distant third. Like comparing Metroid to Mario and Zelda. Not to mention all the other franchises they could collab with to make extra money. Union Arena is mostly random shounen anime franhchises
>>483623437>Minun and Plusle themed (boy pikaclone and girl pikaclone)They are both 50:50. What the fuck are you on about?
>>483625919So your point is that Metroid deserves to die.
>>483626110Well the development team that made Metroid games was dissolved, so that probably is the case.
>>483626110My point is that there's a reason Mario and Zelda are annual franchises while Metroid gets a new entry every couple of years and goes dormant if sales drop a significant amount
>>483626321Even Mario games are like 2/3rds ports now.
>>483626321there has been 1 original Mario game during the switch's entire lifespan.
>>483625827Why is Wormmon such a gooner?
>>483626718Because green is the most based color
>>483626526They released Princess Peach Showtime last year, Wonder the year before that, Mario Vs Rabbids in 2022, and are going to release Brothership later this year. Even with all the remakes, they're still releasing new games
>>483626718being an armor-evolving digimon apparently just makes you horny/makes others horny for you
>>483626951>blue furry monHow about you go armor evolve into a furnace?
>>483626896So they could release Digimon spinoffs too. They won't though because they're deliberately trying to destroy the brand.
>>483626626>Super Mario Odyssey>Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle>Mario Tennis Aces>Super Mario Party>Yoshi's Crafted World>Super Mario Maker 2>Luigi's Mansion 3>Paper Mario: The Origami King>Mario Golf: Super Rush>Mario Party Superstars>Mario Strikers: Battle League>Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope>Super Mario Bros. Wonder>Princess Peach: Showtime!
>>483627203They could release Metroid spinoffs too. But we all know what happened when Federation Force came out
>Current game is stuck in MASSIVE dev hell>"Wow why are they not releasing more games"I swear people are stupid
>>483627203What do you think Survive was? It was supposed to be a smaller spin-off game on a cheap budget to tide people over while waiting for Story to come out
>>483627719where is story now? It's been years since Survive.
>>483627203No one wants a brand only liked by gaijin and a few autistic nipponese women. Doesn't help that pandering to gaijin is only safe when the brand is too autistic to be corrupted by current year mental illness, like Sonic. Digimon has too many alphabet soup degenerates and furfags, which are 80% pozzed 20% /pol/tard
>>483627509>gejimo gamu>not under dev hellthat's like trying to drive a car without tiresYou are talking about a digimon game in the digimon general, am i right?
>>483627774Stuck in development hell. Bringing back the Metroid comparison, Prime 4 was stuck in development hell for 7 years too
>>483625009Cool hat. I wonder if it was going to be related what became Warudamon. Going from just visuals, Effecmon + Mienumon is more like how the main characters do it, but in terms of abilities Effecmon + Roamon = Fakemon makes more sense.
>>483627940Yeah but Prime 4 is shaping up to be exactly what people wanted from a Prime sequel while we're going to be lucky if we get a half-assed budget JRPG instead of some Live Service slop.
>>483628176Why would the next Story game be live service? They've made no mention of changing genres for the next game.
>>483625919>It's a distant third.no it's not. you're comparing apples to oranges. like a heavyweight boxing champion to a middleweight title contender.>>483626321>Mario and Zelda are annual franchisesno they're not. odyssey took many years to make. wonder god knows how long.for zelda, bitching of the wuss took many years too, as did tilting of the kuck>>483627323your comparison is disingenuous. most of those are spin-offs handled by entirely different teams. others are part of their own sub-series (luigi, yoshi)digimon doesn't have separate teams or companies working on "mainline" and "spin-off" titles, nor do you have sub-divisions like "taichi and friends games," "v-tamer games," etc.
>>483627792>fanbase is majority degens and fagsWell, have you tried pushing for something else rather just jerking off to womons or autistic shit about who the tamers are likely to be in gay relationships or powerlevel shit?The only content that gets pushed and enabled thus created more is this degenerate autistic stuff and it attracts more degenerate fags.
>>483576579NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!!!! SHIT! SHIT! SHIT! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING! NO! NO! NO! NO! NOT ADVENTURE AGAIN! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!! I'M GOING INSANE! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! I'M SO ANGRY I'M SHAKING RIGHT NOW! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!! WHY, GOD WHY? REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! I SWEAR I'M GOING TO KILL SOMEONE IF I SEE AAAAAAAAAAADVENTURE AGAIN, I'M SO FUCKING PISSED!!!!
>>483628932this but unironically
>>483628616>The only content that gets pushed and enabled thus created moreyet none of the official games contain a hint of all that 'degeneracy' you bitch so loudly about. you get a tongue-in-cheek joke at best.
>>483628616The problem is when people don't get autistic about meme jobbers like Millenniummon or ships, the only thing people talk about when it comes to Digimon is how deep the family lives of characters from Adventure, Tamers, and sometimes Appmon but in a very tumblr-y way.
>>483629735The BDSM Eater does exist, but most people don't care for it that much.
>>483628543>no it's not. you're comparing apples to orangesI'm sure you have the financial statements to prove it>your comparison is disingenuous. most of those are spin-offs handled by entirely different teams. others are part of their own sub-seriesAnd why shouldn't they count? They're still part of the Mario franchise and appeal to largely the same demographic. Should we not count Digimon Survive as a real Digimon game because it's a spin-off made by a third party developer?>digimon doesn't have separate teams or companies working on "mainline" and "spin-off" titles, nor do you have sub-divisions like "taichi and friends games," "v-tamer games," etc.Once upon a time, it did. They released Digimon World, Digimon Battle Spirit, Digimon Rumble Arena, and Digimon Card Battle. All different games made by different companies that target different genres. But you're completely missing the whole point. I'm not comparing Digimon with Mario and Zelda, because they're both juggernaut franchises that are closer compared to One Piece and Dragon Ball. I was comparing Digimon to Metroid, the smaller franchise that still has a smaller (mostly foreign) but dedicated fanbase. Both are franchises that have gone into hibernation several times and now mostly focus on releasing one major title with maybe a spinoff or two being made if they have the extra budget
>>483630105Normal guys like it because it's hot but the tumblrists get oof owwie about it because its "problematic" and "ain't it chief"It's weird to try to equate sexiness to "le woke degenerate agenda" though. You aren't prudefag are you?
I wonder what the dialog for the Digimon will be like in the new story game? Playing story was kind of amusing because they would ask you questions that are kind of out there like if there is someone you like and if you prefer Renamon or Angewomon. They certainly knew there audience even decades ago.
>>483631590Where's the fanart then? Even Nokia, the bitch who struggles against Yoshino has more art. Same goes to that Brazilian dyke, and she's a catastrophic failure.
>>483629735We talking about the community, not the games, you absolute child.>hehe you get a tongue my ass jokeDon't need to tell me outright that you're genuinely mad at someone posting words you don't like.Retards like this that are unable to function in any social settings and should not be around people are exactly the reason every single community or fanbase is cancerous as fuck.>>483629894And that happens more frequently because there are others who do the same shit.Do you really think they genuinely give a shit about what they talk about? They only use that to get attention on themselves.Look at the anon i replied to; >said basically nothing>only showed he mad>didn't understand shit>only posted to insult and show how offended he is to get attention because that's the only way he knows to get it since he's been raised on social mediai have blocked and muted most digimon accounts on social media since they're mostly like this
>>483631982It's too fucking hard to draw
>>483591386In common route. In the sewer when she talked about her dad's CD after you picked it up.I took a lot of offense about it because it's something she got from her dad + the lyrics hinted about her Plutomon personality.
>>483632037You are completely fucking unhinged dude.
>>483632312>that>unhingedYou're a child.
>>483631504>the smaller franchise that still has a smaller (mostly foreign) but dedicated fanbasedigimon has a steady following in Japan. if you want obscure look up legendz or something, ironically another franchise Bandai is sleeping on (both the anime and the manga)
I wonder what the ancient Digimon thought of the hackers that interacted with them eons ago? The Life Simulation World could make for a great game as a prequel to World.
>>483633506Probably treated them as aliens or foreign invaders. Depending on the setting, most Digimon sometimes default to a feral "Might makes right, survival of the fittest" mentality so they might have challenged them to a fight
>>483633506That already sounds interesting.You could be playing the role of an hacker that finds this tool on the dark web, tried to make money with mons n shit and then things happen, he realizes mons are intelligent and he saves the digital world or some shit.
>>483591048>>and then Plutomon eats Saki in order to "become one"That actually happened in wrath along with Shuuji, Ryo.Notice how the children's soul (along with Prof) fought back at clown in harmony but nothing of sort happened in wrath, just the souls screaming in agony?All of them got eaten and merged to the point of losing any individuality so they couldn't fought back Plutomon.I am always annoyed at "together in death" yurishit picture because Saki didn't exist anymore by that point. Also she never even interacted with Plutomon.Also this type of pic was mostly drawn by fujos. Like they care less about the ship but more about killing 2 girls that may interfere with any Tacoomer yaoi ships they support and then they can cry crocodile tears about it
>this level of autism over dumb Survive fanart of Sora but ow the edge and Mimi but dying of cancer
>>483635418>Damnbut that's what takato would say, not jian.and terriermon's smile is a tad too deranged. it should be innocent and gleeful, like a little kid at the candy factory or something
>>483635418Because Aoi is an actually good enough character for me to invest in?And aside from edgeshit she has lots more good points or interesting sides that got ignored either because it didn't support yuritrannny agenda or it make fujoshits butthurt as it usually tied to Tacoomer?
>>483635970Also her "edgeshit" didn't even 100% connect to Saki like how Kaito's 200% connected to Miu too.Funny how Aoi has shit load of character but fujoshits and LGBTranny love dumping it down to one (false) part while Kaito has 0 personality apart from Miu but they outright stole something of Aoi and given it to him.
Are we talking about the possible new evolution of Impmon for New Century? No, because the latest information on New Century talks about an Impmon, a rebellious student of Takutoumon who, in an unspecified evolved form, would be a member of Tian Ji, a group of digimon that for the moment only includes 3 members: Erlangmon, Takutoumon and Xiangpengmon (so only digimon with Chinese origins...)
>>483639449>a FOURTH fucking evolution line for ImpmonI was gonna say "it's probably Lianpumon" but that evolves into Dijiangmon which is an evil Digimon, so probably not a fit for the team
>>483639654it's probably Lianpumon with a new perfect and ultimateit only starts to get corrupted when it turns into Xingtianmon
>>483639654"Dijiangmon is one of the Four Ferocious Beasts"Other group and 3 missing member for now.
>>483643831>Four Ferocious BeastsWe actually ARE getting the Four Perils? That's cool
>>483643989hopefully as imagined by Japan, like the 4 sovereigns
So I made it to part 7, I heard this game had multiple endings, so I am wondering without any spoilers, which one is more satisfying to do. Right now I think I like Saki and Miu the most along with Kaito, but I'm not sure what impacts who lives or dies, since I have been choosing what I thought would be good.
>>483644287>so I am wondering without any spoilers, which one is more satisfying to doWrathful > Harmony > Moral > Truth is the generally agreed on ranking
>>483643989tun tun tunak tunak dadadada
>>483644532Thank you.

>>483644287>likes the hot-blooded hothead who rushes headlong without asking questions and suggests abandoning teammates in needyou're either dim-witted or a sociopath. not a spoiler either because it happens in chapter 3.
>>483645868Eh not him but I honestly kinda like Kaito pre-timeskip so it’s understandable for first-time player. It’s after that he became full retard and everything he took initiative cause harm to the party in some way every route except truthful where he did nothing and ironically that route has the best outcome for everyone.
Ready for some Cool?
Up
wow
>>483645396>this chapter was just to setup the arisa vs violet battlenext chapter for sure

So cool! I love wasting entire chapters on literally nothing! What a great use of everyone's time!
>>483648858>Local man has never heard of set-up
>>483645868It's mostly his connection to Miu.
>>483649031Digimon's problem is too much setup. They dick us around for years at a time doing fucking nothing. If they're going to waste our time with shitty low effort comics then they could at least have the fucking decency to have something happen in them.
they are just frends
>>483649196It probably peaked with Cyber sleuth in the modern era.
he's here
>>483648732The Agumon is interesting.
>"These cards are more complex than what you can imagine">"Don't interact with Wild Digimon or we will ban you"Cool Boy's 100% gonna be evil again
>>483649409A middle-aged Japanese man? Save me!
>>483649314Yea they keep repeating how they are like brother and sister in the relationship chart so I guess Arisa won’t be endgame after all.Probably ShotoXSunalizamon girl and ArisaXViolet
>>483649438There's two Red decks in the Novel if the relationship chart is right, I can see the Agumon belonging to one of the Novel guys
I feel Digimon has had full retard pacing issues even since Colon's Omegamon drive-bys happened. In order to avoid absurd stupidity like that from happening again, a lotta Digimon media, including Ghost Game do a lotta weird blue balls things. Seekers was the worst of the pacing problems in the name of not going full Colon.

>>483651171How can Arisa ever compete
>>483649868>>483650462system in what, video games? I think they should switch to an event-based system, so that only doing stuff like training, battling, or fishing ages your digimon. because nothing kills your willingness to explore new areas like a clock running down.
Rize Greymon's sprite looks goofy.
>>483652653can digimon sleep in their evolved forms without devolving?
>>483649031The issue with Liberator is that it takes a single month for one chapter to fully release. We've been following Liberator for 3 months now and we haven't even met all the main characters yet
>>483653264They do that all the times in world game and probably any story with “farm” too but I can’t remember.Pretty sure in anime too for non-partner digimon.
What would his team be if he was a hacker?
>>483655691Dorumon
>>483655691Targetmon
>impmon can just evolve with no tamer and for no reason straight up to ultimate from rookie>Dobermon gives the kids the power to digitize while IRL which is an obvious ass pull and a complete waste of an organically occurring hurdle for them to conquer.>Dobermon has to die to do this because then we get a sad scene with 2 characters that have been introduced literally 2 minutes ago>Ruki's boyfriend's digimon goes from adult to fusion ultimate off screen (he wasn't there when Dobermon gave the others the power but can do it anyway? Did they digitize the entire real world?)>the reason why Jian was so against fighting for the first half of the series is suddenly exposited with no build up and for no reason, they pretend this is the moment where he's completing his arc to accept that violence is necessary but that happened 25 episodes ago>Ruki suddenly exposits on the reason that she won't accept her femininity being that her father wanted a boy- this goes nowhere and she fusion-ultimate evolves, proceeds to do almost nothing as Sakuyamon for 3 episodes>MarineAngemon can senzu bean other digimon, and can also conveniently disintegrate the D-Reaper by smooching it>Hirokazu will not evolve his digimon for some reason, even though he definitely has the cards to do itAAAAAAAAAAAA WHY IS IT SO BAD??!?WHY???I'm going to finish it because there's like 7 episodes left but FUCKso much wasted potential, everything is executed poorly, I'm so sad
>>483658156>Ruki's boyfriend'sShut your whore mouth
>>483613934Digimon is too based to get corrupted by DEI. We can survive xros wars and appmon. We already have vince staples rapping about digimon refrences we don't need anymore.
>>483658538The only reason Ruki x Ryo isn't canon is because Konaka hates the Wonderfaggot and Toei's writing staff is full of furfags and Rukato apes
>>483626951they did my boy so dirty. Ironically its mostly the evolutions I kicked out of my free that get the weird bara shit
>>483654992>for non-partner digimon.evo is permantn for those so they don't count.
>>483650562Anon, she's obviously going to use her BeelStarmon deck
>>483658686I still feel pandering to westoids will just lead to another Apphomo, but better animation or a Savers brand generic shonen that everyone ignores because it doesn't do anything new or exciting other than be "competent".
>>483658686we have the true wielder of omega so nothing can go wrong
>>483659237>Irrelevant ugly trash that can't even beat Savers Sora in fanart
>>483658156Tamers is the best season bar none. Enjoy the one good thing we have. Bitching about Ryo already having a power up just betrays your ill intent, now fuck off trannie2020 could have topped it if the budget was higher and it had more run time.
>>483659387yet infinitely more useful. curious.
>>483658902>nth /digi/ post jerking off about the intimate relationship of fictional children and why they're not officially represented because of schizophrenic reasonsUnironically kill yourself
>>483659679> if the budget was higherthe fuck are you on? it was nothing but murderhobo fighting. granted it got fucked over by the kung flu in the middle, but still...
>>483659236if you think about it the netflix style of animation we see in baki/ka/transformers/ultraman is perfect for this franchise. They do the thick inking like the 90s art, and have already worked with some bandai IP for practice. We have had record scratching in the digimon theme forever, lets do a gang war with digimon
>>483659837Sorry about that
>>483658156>>483658902doomnigger posts btw
>>483659858The action was a significant improvement over past series and that is both good and important. I agree that I miss slower world building, my favorite moments are exploring the digital world in 01/02, PS1 DW games and the commercials, fansites and instruction booklet for early v-pets. I think the mixed quality comes from budget and they were trying to do studio trigger pacing, which is a good idea to try but not for an adventure remake. 2020 didn't do a bad job with the digital world, it just gave us only a fraction of what we wanted.
>>483658156Because Tamers was built around three characters feat Juri and Impmon. The pointless add-ons (Takato's sped friends, Jian's sister) and the buy failed handheld guy aren't meant to be relevant in the slightest; just misguided marketing due to the OP or in Ryo's case, move doomed merch.Savers has the same problems with useless add-ons, but they at least meshed a bit better.
>>483658902>the only reason this retarded thing isn't canon is because everyone hates itgood????
>>483660904The Korean and Chinese yumes like pairing Ryo with Ruki
>>483659858Covid fucked them over because the writing staff couldn't work on the story script, and they couldn't get any additional voice actors which led to mindless Digimon fights. I know we all hate Colon here, but the writers clearly had stuff they wanted to do but weren't able to if the Holy War flashback which showed 7 Holy Digimon was anything to go by
>>483661507>Covid fucked them over because the writing staff couldn't work on the story script, and they couldn't get any additional voice actors which led to mindless Digimon fightsI feel like this is the most overlooked part. I'm sure colon would have been much better had it not been for the chop fluey
Original ideas were never made to prosper. Blame Frontier's stupidity for the unending Adventure wank
Wondercock made for slutty red-haired tomboys
So, Cool Boy is a villain, rgiht?
>>483662402is it half in chink half in moon or something?
>>483662783He was pretty shady in his own original series, but I'm not sure>>483662828I think so.
is the seekers story good? do you think it deserves an adaptation?
>>483662783He was working with Yggdrasil and him and his Omegamon basically made everything a thousand times worse than it already was if I recall.
>>483662218>Savers>Xros Wars>Appmon>Ghost GameThey keep trying new original ideas but they just suck. Maybe blame the garbage writers not being able to stick the landing which led to all the Adventure wank>But Ghost Game was good!Not good enough to revive the franchise. Most fans dropped it after a couple episodes because their Zoomer brains couldn't handle episodic stuff
>>483663478>yaoi-baitNo
>>483663478Starts good but there's no time to breathe. It's like the story is speedrunning to the ending without giving the characters any time to breathe. There's some unanswered questions like Loogamon's amnesia, and Flashback Namek obliterated whatever pacing the series had. Eiji and Loogamon, the most interesting main characters in the story, are also treated as side characters to the actual story about the Ryusenji family drama
>>483663478It would work as a 26 episode thing, but its definitely just grittier Apphomo, and only will appeal to nipponese women rather than nip women and alphabet soup weirdos.>>483663592Its also very hard to write. Digimon is a delicate series, and after Frontier's gimmick scared people, all it takes is one dumb episode or questionable pacing (early Savers is pretty boring despite not having an Astra farting or Nidhoggmon tier episode; same goes for most of Savers final stretch) to make everyone who isn't a diehard to leave
So, Waifu battle next chapter?
>>483664285>all it takes is one dumb episode or questionable pacing to make everyone who isn't a diehard to leaveMaybe Digimon doesn't deserve to survive this long if it's that easy to kill
>>483664875yes here we are megaten is the og. pokemon is replacing man's relationship with god with money ( they're called pocket monsters beacuse they're after your pocket money)Digimon is about man rehabilitating kaiju, and thus god. The best season of digimon is SSSS gridman
>>483664875I agree with that, but retards keep asking for more regardless of the show not living up to their standards one way or another.
>>483664386Seems so.
>>483661492Cool Ruki Fact's: The gook dub of Tamers changed Ruki's name to Eunsena
>>483659679>Tamers is the best season bar none.No way.So far I've only watched Adventure and it's not even close.The pacing of Tamers is extremely bad, it's a fever dream, it cannot do a single setup and payoff well to save its life and the setting goes completely unutilizedI'll see the others when I get there but so far the worst episode in Adventure 02 is still better than the best episode in Tamers.>>483660159shit like this is exactly what I mean, all this set up and then the pay off and arc resolution hits weaker than a wet paper towel because it happens in the span of 10 secondsthe stuff about Ruki not wanting to look feminine is also set up around this part, and talked about quite a bit, but it's only in episode 44 or 45 that they finally tell you why she's squeamish about wearing a skirtIt's not bad material in general, it's just bad executionreminds me of the Dededededestruction anime which has the same problem, it's super shit due to bad pacing and timing, but I must have read the manga 4 or 5 times>>483658538I don't like it either but she keeps calling him "obnoxiously refreshing" and blushing when he talks to heri forgor to click submit an hour ago

>>483667792I'm not a furry i find that utterly vulgar. Imagine jerking off to animals. Holy fucking shit the shit taste and retardation one must posses to even find ANIMALS sexually arousing. Just jerk off to normal stuff like angewomon or rosemon you fucking degenerates
>>483632309Does the item change per route, or did I forget? I remember her looking for a ring from her father.
>>483667259sorry, did I interrupt your scheduled furry porn spam with my digimon discussion?
>>483658156>for no reason straight up to ultimate from rookieDid you even try to watch the show or did you just occasionally glance at the screen while typing your blog? They show and tell you that he cut a deal with what is basically God as far as the Digimon in universe are concerned and received a chunk of his power, that he kept, reactivated and powered up thanks to his bond with his partners
>>483669169The ring was before they went into sewer.After you went in, around the time they were searching for Shuuji in the room with any character if you use a phone to look for item in river you would found item related to that character’s past and they would commented on it.IIRC there was Aoi’s CD, Saki’s chart, Minoru’s figure, Miu’s talisman and Ryo’s medal. However if you found Shuuji before finding any of these you will lost your chance for them in that run.

>>483672921Twink= yeah.Bull= probably somewhat equal. Depend on luck, situation etc.
i wish we got the complete royal knights arc with savers
>>483674693Not gonna get over the fact that Alphamon spent an entire game trying to deport humans from the digital world during that era with increasing insane ideas and reasoning.
>>483675216So all of their main partners are "wild" Digimon?
i cannot believe Kurata was a Bandai representation all this time
>>483675424For now nothing had been said about Impmon or Funbeemon being wild.
>>483665141>megaten is the og. well it's funny that you mention megaten because it's fucking dead outside of games, and persona overtook it by a wide margin.
>>483664285you have CS as the perfect example to make digimon interesting for the teen public
>>483675112>Humans could be here...
>>483590980Digimon Knuckles looks mega gaymight read it
If ghost game was plot focus we could be in another golden age of digimon but /digi/ is not ready for that talk
>>483678321(You)r kind doesn't deserve a plot. And if it had one you'd be bitching about it non-stop here as well.
>>483658156A lot of that sounds like "I didn't like it, so it's objectively bad"
Lilithmon
>>483658156i mean watch the fucking show? they explain everything also lets be honest Impmon deserved to die to give a better impact of how Juri anger went to far fuck that furry,
>>483679405He's not here to watch. He's here to complain
>>483678743You just know she would go full e-girl streamer to entice the modern audience
>>483678580You added the second part and for no reason.>>483679405I'm not confused about anything, and I don't expect the Dobermon thing to make sense nor do I care about it. It didn't make sense how Culumon's intervention isn't required to evolve after a while either, that doesn't bother me at all.>>483679580none of you guys said shit like this when I was posting in between watching Adventureactually, a lot of people here even said that ep21 was the pinnacle of the franchise and nothing would top it, which at the time I didn't really believe but at this point I'm starting to think they had a pointI'll probably be done with Tamers tonight or tomorrow, I don't understand why there's a couple of you who get so mad about itis it a furry thing?
>>483681060>It didn't make sense how Culumon's intervention isn't required to evolve after a while either, that doesn't bother me at all.He already released the entelechia. He was no longer needed for evolution.
>>483678743>IT'S COOM MON>BUT AS LE STREAMER WITH THE BOOBIES OUTDo you know why i don't respect any of you?Because i have seen the absolute garbage that makes you cheer.
>>483665141>Digimon is about man rehabilitating kaijumore often than not the people are the broken ones. other than the obvious cases resulting from the misadventure in the prologue, the partnermons in sarvaiv outshine their human counterparts.>>483678321do tell how a deep and complicated plot would have made a difference. the truth is GG's barebones plot was more than enough. it kinda sucks that it was rushed at the end, but that's because they ran out of episodes, not because of the plot itself.
>>483672921No. Omega is a jobber
>>483686673They had 67 episodes, why the hell does everyone assume they ran out of episodes? The show had ample time to put more hints towards the GRB plot throughout its entire runtime, they just didn't want to
Savers Agumon VA passed awayhttps://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2024-06-27/the-file-of-young-kindaichi-inuyasha-voice-actor-taiki-matsuno-dies-at-56/.212507
>>483689943Damn...
>>483689943I was going to make some joke about the poll result but realized it was rather insensitive...
>>483658156Impmon is essentially reverse-Ryo. Ryo was given a special role, but Konaka hated him and went out of his way to make him and his partner look as out of place and lame as possible. Impmon on the other hand was originally intended to be the protagonist's partner but was rejected in favour of the classic dinosaur schtick, but since Konaka liked him so much the spoiled little shit got wanked to all fuck, with asspulls boosting him to ultimate and further allowing him to keep that power, and him essentially getting off scot free for what he did.
>>483692187Dunno what you're talking about. Impmon has the usual "sells soul for power" plotline, and he gets almost murdered multiple times and genuinely tries to atone.
>>483688623They already planned for less from the beginning but Toei just decided to get hacked and push everything back.
>>483689943F
>>483688623Because GG floated along at a leisurely pace, only to go balls to the wall manic sprinting towards the end. Barely anything got resolved either, and the little that did get resolved was done haphazardly and shallowly. You know the ending's a mess when the final bosses are a flower janny and schizophrenia.
>>483625009sexo
>>483677616CS would suffer Savers syndrome (read: generic and "competent") but with more coomer bait. It would do nothing other than be forgotten
>>483695875That just sounds like bad scheduling to me. Like a bunch of teenagers who keep putting off a big project because the deadline is so far away, but then by the time they realise it, it was due the next week. Instead of working on it bit by bit and having notable milestones to show how far along they are to completing the project, they rush everything in the last minute and end up with something less satisfying
>>483678321Ghost Game with plot would just be murderhoboing that's slightly smarter than Colon's nonsense and/or that not!Menoa from the Morphomon episode becoming Kurata-lite, and no one wants to emulate a forgotten shonen only liked by hipsters.>>483689943That's depressing.
>>483688532Only OG Adventure OMEGAAAAAAAAA in all fairness.
NATURALLY
>>483699135It's a reference to 100 girlfriends btw
>>483698759How? His only loss is against the big spooder. And the butteefly hoe if you count the shitty Nu-venture stuff, and even there he was in the middle of dying due to "muh potential"
>>483699397Ojou-sama characters are very common in anime tho?
>>483658156Whoa, buddy, slow down. Independent thinking isn't allowed in this board.
>>483701308nah, it's allowed. It just also comes with the caveat that other people can also independently think you're wrong
>>483699135Violet's about to job HARD to show off Cendrillmon, isn't she
>>483701869Nahhhh, clearly Bootmon is changing owners
>>483701869Since she uses multiple decks it's probably gonna be the musketeer one, reserving Ghostmon for a win later on
The SMT chads are making fun of us..>>483676484>>483676647
>>483703390those are your own posts
>>483703390Self-promoting is faggot behavior
So I finally watched the beginning.They really give up on trying to make these movies make sense with one another.
Yep
>>483695875>balls to the wall manic sprinting towards the endI did like the saving Gammamon scene though>Barely anything got resolvedwhat do you mean? Gulus got eaten, the niggeraids is gone, no more digimon are coming into the real world, and hokuto is back. the only things left unresolved were the obvious sequel hooks (the endbringer, the new world, all the autistic digimon who were looking for partners).>>483703390how can SMT make fun of anyone when it got buried by a tumor of an inferior spin-off?
>>483709547Imagine if Bandai/Toei retcon every vilain of all the anime to have the same origin. Can't wait for the IT WAS ME TAICHI!
>>483711662Sometimes I wonder if you guys just have nothing better to do with your time but complain about Adventure, Taichi, and Omegamon all day
>watched dubbed digimon out of curiosity>disgust.jpgI now understand why people thought it was a shitty pokemon rip off
>>483711891I'm not complaining, it would be shit but it would be hilarious
>>483711464>no more digimon are coming into the real worldBecause they are all already there?
>>483712225To be fair it's going to be hard for somebody like you who wasn't alive to see what the media landscape looked like at the time to see how impactful it was, especially since you're not watching it in your native language.
Do you think if Digimon had an accurate dubs it would have been more successful in the English-speaking world?
>>483713764Definitely, euros and mexicans still love it to this day
>>483713764I don't think children are smart enough to understand the nuances between accurate dubs and localizations. They'll still like it because it's a fun monster fighting show they watched as a kid and are nostalgic for
>>483714547The dumb jokes ruined it even as a kid.
>>483715776You say that, but there's still millions of people who will swear to their graves that the Digimon dub is one of the funniest things they've ever seen
>>483714547I disagree, if you showed both the original and dubbed version to a kid they'd prefer the og one since it still has all the monster battles while being a better crafted story that doesn't talk down to them.
>>483716015On the contrary, I think most of those kids wouldn't be able to tell the difference. The main flow of the episode is still fairly similar, and within a few days they'll probably forget all the dumb jokes the localisation added, or the interesting character study the original script made. All they will remember are the broad strokes of what happened in the episode like who fought what or who the focus character was
>>483714547They could've had better music with their cool monster fights though
>>483716006It was hard sitting through the dubs because of how annoying they were. Through the dumb jokes and the unnecessary commentary and some of the dub voices didn't sound right. As a kid it wasn't good to me. Now years later I wish I watched the original dub.
>>483716549Obviously, but we're talking about the script here, not the soundtrack. They're two completely different things
>>483715776that's demonstrably not true? Why do you spics keep trying to rewrite history? >>483716015no they fucking wouldn't they'd watch the one in english. Are you retarded?
>>483716316But the more serious tone, with the great ost the og had to compliment it, as well as some uncensored scenes would definitely stay with them
>>483717406Anon, don't be dumb. We're obviously talking about the difference between a localised 4kids script and a faithful dub script here, not what language the show is showed in. Most countries dubbed the show based on the original Japanese script, after all
>>483716671Music adds just as much to a scene as the words being said
>>483717414And at the same time, a well timed joke that they could repeat and turn into a meme will also stick with them. That's why we still have people quoting Spongebob or Simpsons years after they stopped watching the show
>>483686673>more often than not the people are the broken onesThis is so true in seekers. It felt like the prototype Digimon didn't need their humans, the humans needed them and very badly at that because of how fucked up all of their lives is.
>>483717689the differences between the jap version and the american dub are minimal though unless your retarded hangup is over localized names, which considering the typical talking points the brownies in this general like to parrot I almost guarantee it is. No, I don't think it would have had an appreciable difference on Digimon's popularity if they'd called Ultimates Perfects and used the name "Taichi."
>>483711662That only works if every single villain is related to Apocalymon, Zeed, or Ryo which isn't the case for the anything past 02. Villains can use similar concept like darkness being anti life/evolution though like the D reaper.
Honestly the change in ost is what kills the dub more than anything else lmao>>483718117Most dubs use the localized names
>>483719027where is this "killed the dub" nonsense coming from when the fact that the English dubbed version of Digimon was the most popular way the brand was consumed? You are pretending that the dub made Adventure "fail" when it demonstrably did not.
>>483718117You're pretty ignorant if you think the name localisation is the only script change the dub made. People have been cataloguing the changes on digimonuncensored.com since the early 2000s.
>>483719313holy fucking autism you're telling me a handful of downies have spent two decades trawling through a cartoon to tell people they watched it wrong? Wow anon this changes everything. I'm sure if all those kids in the nineties saw this they'd commit seppuku in dishonor
>>483719550Now you're just being disingenuous. Nowhere did anyone say they're "watching it wrong" by cataloguing the dub changes. They're autists who hyper fixated on a children's monster raising franchise from the 90s, not chronic shitposters
can all of you like, fuck off to /a/ or something?
No
What's sad is that Frontier would have been shit either way
The thread is Leomon-ing...
But a new thread from the ashes like a phoenix(mon)
every thread is doomposting and retard garbage by people who hate digimon more than pokeniggers
That is why I love Digimon!
