>New anime in 2027The hype train never stops.
Pic related.
>>289808200I'm playing Time Stranger right now. It sucks that the sexy bombastic protagonist is a silent protagonist and I have to play as the faggot to hear her voice as the Operator.
>>289809316>new animeWhy bother? Digimon already peaked here
Hosoda movies were so damn good
>>289810659He should just come back to Digimon desu. His last couple films haven't been too great.
>>289810262It can't never ever be topped.
>>289808200I have a day off today, so I'm gonna start Survive for the occasion
>Beatbreak is starting its final arc...yup, rushed final arc evolutions here we go!
>>289809316>>289809529I'm extremely surprised. I thought we wouldn't get another anime in the next 5 years, much less next year.
>>289811480I wouldn't be too surprised if only Gekkomon and Murasamemon got their megas
Happy Digimon day!Happy birthday to me.I love season 1 so much.
>>289811480Beatbreak wasn't bad but it had some weird pacing issues for sure.>>289811729It's growing in popularity, now's the time to capitalize on that.
Happy Digiday to all who celebrate. God, Digimon Up was so bad.
>>289809552Don't insult my boy Joe Shimamura
Digimon New Anime series in 2027 will be ...
>>289813967An straightforward adaptation of V-Tamer for the 30th anniversary
>>28981396752 episodes of kekmon
>>289808200i miss ghost game
>>28981396702 reboot like adventure 2020
>>289814118
>>289813967ghost game 2
>>289814340>yume nikki puke"vomit-chan" is a much better filename.
>>289814088It was setup to be great but it ended up being mostly trash. >>289814416Never.
>>289813967A faithful remake of 02 but the camera is on Hikari’s spats ass the entire time
>>289811480To me Beatbreak had a better rhythm and focus on the plot than Ghost Game or Colon, I was actually expecting it to go a bit over 50 episodes to do things properly but I guess I was wrong.Have we even seen any mega in Beatbreak, aside from Piramidimon that was more of an anomaly? Even the 5 Stars only have ultimates. If the problem is the lack of e-pulse in one person to go that far, maybe they could lean back into the family aspect and do DNA-evolutions again? Though that would leave an odd number of people for the Tactics trio, which at this point will almost surely get megas too
So apparently they also aired a selection of episodes, but only from the first 4 iterations. I was gonna ask why Savers isn't there when 2026 is its 20th anniversary, but I guess it's because those 4 seasons aired back to back and Savers came after a 3 year break.Weird question but I can't remember now, didn't they announce a new movie after the 02 one? I kinda recall an announcement but I can't find anything now
>>289815761>So apparently they also aired a selection of episodes, but only from the first 4 iterations.They haven't aired anything yet. Today was the vote results.
>>289809316>>289809529Holy shit they're not abandoning digimon to die again just yet?
>>289808200I should draw Digimon today
>>289809552You don't want to play a guy that burns down orphanages for fun with his best friend gomamon? Look at them, they look like 2 crazy, possibly evil, best friends
>>289815923Oh, thanks for the explanation, I found the picture on a tweet about the new anime announcement and when I searched that "the best adventure" bit I read it was something that aired today
>>289814340>>289814459I saw this image a lot for years but I never knew it was from Yume Nikki. Another game I have yet to play. Thanks, Anon.
>>289815424>Tactics trio, which at this point will almost surely get megas too
>>289816008No, that will begin the week after Beatbreak finishes. It's a reairing of the winning episodes from the vote (I'm assuming the Top 3 of each, which would suitably fit a cour): https://www.toei-anim.co.jp/tv/digimon_selection/Adventure and Tamers' episodes are being re-aired first, with 02 and Frontier following later.
Going through time strangers right now. Getting kind of sick of STUN BEATO BROW
>>289813967time stranger adaptation
>>289816106... I was going to say something about trying to get more toy sales but I guess that argument doesn't hold up at 2 months for the end of the show. Still, with Tactics being something like the rivals/mirrors of the main trio, I still hope to see them againI'm also playing Time Stranger now, one main mission 30. Weird question to ask at this point, but I missed some side missions on the human world at the beginning of the game and I guess I won't be able to go back to beat them now, right?
>>289808200Should I give Digimon Beatbreak another chance?I liked Ghost Game a lot, but I tried Beatbreak a few months ago and I didn't like it. I remember it was pretty slow compared to other Digimon anime. Also egg Digivices? It's feels very out of place.As a reference I've watched Adventure, Adventure 02, Tamers and Ghost Game.I liked a lot Adventure and Adventure 02, but I haven't watched the tri movies or the reboot (aka Colon).Tamers was fine, it had strong characters and setting but I feel the story a bit underwhelming. Also, it felt like a toy/game commercial for some reason, instead being more of a straightforward action/adventure anime unlike Adventure/Adventure 02.Ghost Game felt like Digimon should be in the modern age, fresh, modern, a new setting, new characters, I really liked the Digivice being a smartwatch, something that would blend seamlessly today. I just wish it had a stronger plot instead of being disconnected adventures (like you could feel there was a plot but it wasn't the central focus of the anime until the last episodes).I also want to watch Digimon Frontier, it's the last one of the classic Digimon anime I haven't watched yet.
I see so a lot of praise for Beatbreak but I don't like any of the designs I see, digimon or human. I'd love to get into a new digimon anime but digi-aesthetic is important to me
>>289816498How can you think that Beatbreak feel slow when each episode actually progresses the main plot, especially when compared to Ghost Game?
>>289817049Please like my aesthetics.
>>289817143I was almost with him until the crocs. Sorry, Tomoro. That's unforgivable.
>>289817111I watched Beatbreak up to the Pandamon battle and Kyo having a Digimon care home. It had some action moments but it felt like a slice of life anime most of the time. Not much action or adventure, just this here or that there. Slow. It advanced, but still slow. Of course, with 40 episodes now and still ongoing, it could've changed, but that's the impression I got.
>All digimon referred exclusively as "they/them" in beatbreak.huh?
>>289817365Subshit from CR, other subs are superior.
>>289817391that makes sense, which ones should I get? It looks like they all use CR rips and subs.
>>289817298It was never going to be an adventure series when they're stuck in the same city and don't even have a digital world to go exploring to.Also the speed of the plot progression is just fine, if you keep watching you'll notice that the story arcs are contained in 12 episodes format.
>>289817554Digimon is always best when there's exploration involved. Time Stranger was great for that. I hope there's more large and open spaces to run around in on your digimon's back in the upcoming expansion.There's too many "small floating islands" where you have to watch a short scene to jump between them in base TS.
>>289817665What happened to that Gekomon?
I should get back to Time Stranger, didn't even get very far>save right outside the Parrotmon fight>that's enough for now, I'll play more tomorrow>7 months later
>>289817690if you say cringy optimistic one-liners to him he starts teleporting and puking, it's how you get through the dark area.
>>289817690you torture him with cheesy, empty, optimistic phrases to get around an area and have to do it a lot to get all the loot and through the zone. He's sort of willing to endure it, but you do it like 20 times.
>>289817665lol
>>289813967Cute Digimon doing cute Digimon things.
>>289819535He must be thinking: "At least it's not a maid uniform."
>>289815761>Weird question but I can't remember now, didn't they announce a new movie after the 02 one? I kinda recall an announcement but I can't find anything nowYou're thinking of Digimon Adventure Beyond which was a promotional video directed by Hiroyuki Kakudou, the series director of Adventure and 02, meant to close out Adventure's anniversary.It was later revealed it was meant for Digimon Adventure 13+, a schizophrenic crossover special written by Kakudou himself, where everything not directed by him was set in alternate universes. Lui, the main character of The Beginning, is also a main character in 13+ and he meets characters from other series and movies. Toei did not care for it, so all we're left with is Beyond and Kakudou's bulletpoint "script".
>>289819752Which is too bad since Adventure Beyond seemed really interesting. But I think the anon that said Beatbreak might be the template going forwards to attract new, young fans is probably.
>>289819752Kakudou is Digimon's equivalent of Inafune
>>289820298With a dash of Ken Penders.
>>289811480We’re 99% getting Kyo’s tonight.
>>289813808>>289813808Happy Birthday!!!https://youtu.be/0BpMw7gMOsA?si=TX_N2JhSBCsRIPip
>>289821021Thanks!
Weird question about Time Stranger, but are the Ghost Game main digimons in this? I'm already getting ultimate digimons so I guess not, but it's a bit weird how every anime main digimon up to Savers is in this, then only Shoutmon from Xros Wars. Is it because his mega is one of those Digimon Knights things, being all golden?
>>289821948No Ghost Game Digimon, maybe in future DLC. The game was in development hell since 2018, before Colon, and Bandai probably didn't want to delay it further by adding recent Digimon.
I can't believe /a/ and /v/ are the only boards who care about Digimon Day.
>>289821948Maybe in the upcoming big DLC. Time Stranger's development started before Ghost Game came out, then Covid and development hell happened and then we finally got it in it's current form
>>289822519There's the /vg/ digimon general. But where else would anyone bother celebrating? There are maybe 6 anons in the /tg/ tcg thread for it
>>289822519¿Which other boards should?>>289822747/m/ also has a general and moot allowed Digimon in /co/ but he is no longer around to enforce that.
>>289808200August 1st is my dad's birthdayI hate my dad
>>289822519Tbf most of the info was anime related with a bit of vpet and tcg news.
>>289822876Guess the /m/ thread makes sense since their kits are pretty neat. But /m/ is a ghost town last I heard.
>>289822519Renewed Digimon fever died with Tri. It's a pretty niche franchise.
>>289823359>TriI still can't quite get it: how in the world did they fuck up so badly?
>>289823700After the Digimon Adventure game for the PSP made everyone start caring about Digimon again, TPC (The Pokémon Company; 33% Game Freak, 33% Creatures Inc., 34% Nintendo), in collaboration with Bandai/Namco (AKA BAMCO), made sure that the Digital Monsters (AKA DIGIMON) franchise would get only the best in corporate sabotage.>Verification is not required.
>>289823700They got a staff that knew and cared absolutely nothing about Digimon in any way, shape, or form
it's been over 20 years and I'm still madI still remember being mad I couldn't watch digimon on tv because of 9/11
>>289824033And every time any of them start showing enthusiasm for Digimon, they get fired and shitlisted.
>>289813864That how you are carried?
>>289824033And they all came out of the experiences unscathed. One of the many producers even went on to produce Kizuna and The Beginning, and even demanded the latter movie be about the first ever Chosen Child. Tri's stink never left.
>>289813864metalgaymon(virus)
>>289823700The people in charge of the franchise had ZERO understanding of what people like about it. This applies to Kizuna and the Beginning as well.
>>289824677The most recent movie was pretty wild too. The amount of retcons and just how dark it was was absolutely wild
