Digimon Universe: AppliMonsters. Though I think most people just call it Appmon...

IMO if a show takes 19 episodes to not suck it's a failure.

Well if it gets 50 episodes I supposed having most of it's episodes be good as opposed to the whole thing being bad then ill take it.

Yeah it has been character building somewhat since episode 19 where they are getting their ultimates which I guess would be megas for us. Some of the episodes are really dumb though with how there is an app for every basic function. Even the simple copy and paste is an app. Weirder is the Hack App that Hackmon comes from. Plus the Christmas episode that has gotten hate for its stupidity. I just hope it keeps getting better from here instead of going downhill.

Eh, I'd say maybe don't take that so literally. I don't really keep track of what the fandom at large is thinking, so maybe they all really feel this way, but I don't put much stock in the "better since 19" thing. In the first place, it's only been like 3 episodes since then, so it's not like that's much to draw on, and at least personally, I really don't see anything substantially different from what the show was like in the first 18 episodes and what it's been in the last four. If it's "improving" it's only because they're continuing to build on the plot and characters they have been building on since, well...since the show started. Of course opinions on how they've been approaching these things may vary, but they really aren't doing much different.

Also, my favorite episode so far is the 17th, so...meh, maybe I'm biased.

No, actually...they're the equivalent to the perfect level, which is....the ultimate level, for localization fans. So, huh. Guess we've gone full circle. Now the ultimate level actually is that!

The ultimate/mega equivalent is the next one, the God grade.

Honestly, other than the fact that they have different names, there are no babies, and they're technically fusions, the Appmon grades really aren't much different from traditional Digimon evolution levels. There's four main ones, just like in old times...

What a silly thing to complain about.

I'm guessing people think the "taking christmas away by taking it off the calendar" thing is dumb? Do they just not get the setting of this show, or...?

Seriously, these are weird things to get hung up on when the show has real storytelling problems...

Yeah don't take what I say too literally because I have been hard on the series since it just reminds me of Yokai Watch (which I do not like) and took a bit long for me at least to get to the main story. Also just curious what makes 17th your favorite? I am hoping this might make me like the show more.

Oh ok was confused on that, though I am curious how the hell they will get god grade or will it only be Gatchmon by Appfusing Globemon with Dantemon.

Yeah in my defense I use a flip phone and never really used a smart phone so there could be actual apps like these but they would still be very used to these.

Yeah I never noticed or cared about that problem just read it in the comments before. Though people will be hard on it because it has Digimon in the title even if its a spin off.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to knock your opinion. I'm pretty hard on Applimon too, I don't think it's that great, and it's totally fair to be critical of its run thus far. Just...like, I just don't think it's doing anything right now it hasn't been trying to do this whole time. Sometimes it just works out better than other times.

As for episode 17, I doubt I can actually say anything that would make you like the show more. My appreciation for that episode probably just stems from the fact that I enjoy Eri a lot. If you're not a fan of hers in particular I can imagine it was probably not very interesting. For me it was just a nice opportunity to have an Eri-focused episode in which she was allowed to be her best. I enjoyed it more than all the other plot stuff that's been happening, for better or for worse, but....that's just me.

I mean, it's true that they are kind of dumb concepts for applications, but for this franchise (which has had literal poop monsters) I just don't see how an unrealistic app monster is such a big deal. It may be dumb, but I don't see how it's much of a negative.

Ain't that the truth. As I said, I don't really pay that much attention to what other fans are saying, but based on how much people hate on the other seasons, I can only imagine that people are being pretty harsh on Appmon. Not that it's a great show, but it's also not that bad.

Yeah my guess why I like the latest episodes is because the Astra focused one wasn't crap like the last one.

I do not like her that much though I do not like any of the human characters besides Rei (he gets shit done). They all, to me at least, appear as if they were minor characters that were never really meant to be a main character. Eri I do not care for because she just seem like a generic tsundere or a joke of one at least.

Its not the Appmon but the app itself that bugs me only because why would someone need an app like that unless smartphones are now phone sized laptops in the show. And as for weird Digimon, I let those go only because they are based off of random data and info. Though I would hate to see where the data for Nanimon. Numemon is probably based off of comment sections.

I never understood the hate on Frontier unlike the hate for Xros Wars Hunters. Just imagine the hate if the show was a full on Digimon season instead of a spin off. The hate would give birth to Hell Flarerizamon.

Well, yeah, smartphones ARE basically massively underpowered laptops these days. There's an app for that, after all.
