I really should watch Xros Wars. I didn't give it much opportunity.
However, I also did not like one bit of it...Hmm...

Like I said I enjoyed it but it was missing some thing that made Digimon Digimon

I don't really quite know how that works, but I can get what you're saying.
Perhaps it's because our hero owns about 50 Digimon?

That and focuses to much on gimmick yes I know digimon is gimmick in each season but xros wars felt to heavily on the gimmick I mean shout on is ment to be what a rookie but never was stated what omega shout on is it it was missing I think the main evolution stages of main partner digimon

Well, they wanted to show how important DigiXros (Or whatever the fusion is called) is, so I'm not surprised.

Yea I think cause of that it was missing what made Digimon Digimon gimmick should not shadow what a digimon. can do. I hope after tri we vet a other season

And I hope for another season after tri, too.

I mean with hole digi xros or digi fuse for the dub it made challenges they face kinda easy to over come. I mea digimon and human relationship is ment for build grow and reach next stage xros wars had it but not till right near the end of season one xros wars or was it two I can't remember but yea

Oh, I see. Well, I guess when a series needs to reinvent itself, a gimmick would be the easiest way to do so.

Well, that's 50 more than Ash's/Satoshi's Pokemon count *shots fired*

Yea I know but frontier had gimmick but it was use full I mean side gimmic of legendary digimon of xros wars in the sd card would of been fun if digimon where not spirits but actual digimon they could use to digi xros with them or save what ever any other then that I just hope formula returns after tri

And it's a lot more interesting because of it.
He's not traveling around with an army so the Pokemon he does get hold some form of impact.
Xros Wars it's just throwing more and more Digimon into Shoutmon (Or that other Digimon when the main character inexplicably switches), so it just turns into a number.

I do hope so, too.

They should totally do an anime adaptation of Adventure V-Tamer 01 for the 20th anniversary.

Or not.

A new Digimon series would be rad though. Hopefully one less gimmicky than Xros Wars.

Yea less gimmicky digimon season need to happen or another 8 or 6 chosen children like formate I miss the. Evolution chain

I would absolutely freak out if that happens.

Is V-Tamer the one with Zeromaru?
Is so, then please no~

Traditional evolution stages do not exist in Xros Wars, digimon stay in a single form and simply grow up like humans, the few evolutions were major exceptions, and a result of teaming up with humans.

The fusions were gimicky sure, but I enjoyed the lack of levels because at least it fit it's premise of winning with strategies instead of just power.

Taiki never switches Shoutmon, Hunters simply happens to have a different main duo, Tagiru and Gumdramon.

That would be looooooong.
And probably very confusing for a lot of viewers, not sure if a full series would be a great idea, but anything V-Tamer is cool in my books.

That'd be nice.

I didn't mean Shoutmon swapping, I mean the main characters (Both human and Digimon) swapping with a different duo.

We all should simply agree to forget Hunters.
Forever.

I was already so incredibly not interested with Xros Wars. Was Hunters that much worse?

Only cool thing old season leader showing up

I would love to have a "back-to-basics" Digimon anime back on the air right after the Tri movies are over (or even with the Tri movies going on)..........I think after all the Xros Wars stuff, it is a time to return back to traditional evolution (digivolution)

Here, here!! I applaud you!! I second this. *gives death glare at Toei Animation* MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!!

What would "Back to basics" constitute, anyway?

Seasons 1 & 2. Maybe with some 3.

Ominous digital threat, random kids spirited away and given talking animal buddies who through life lessons and good virtues (of which each child embodies one of these traits), evolve into stronger forms to kick ass. Also lots of badass Angels.

And Saban throws bad puns in the dub.

Then I cannot properly endorse this.

How about preteens are... However they got on that digital train with the bunny and the white thing... And channel the spirits of ancient warriors into powerful warrior forms?

How do you dodge the one Digimon series I can properly get behind? :lol
Just give me a Digimon series where:
The randomly chosen kids aren't really random (Sans a few)
The ominous digital threat is actually more of a threat to the real world
There are no life lessons beyond "Don't be stupid" and "Don't be a terrible person"
The kids aren't the most virtuous in the world and they aren't the embodiment of one particular trait
The talking animal buddies actively want to kill each other (Once again, sans a few)
And there are no angels whatsoever, but a ton of demons and devils

For me atleast bringing back the staged evolutions and limiting the amount of Digimon the protagonist can have to at most 3.*so the relationship between partners feels more meaningful and personal*

If we could bring back the stage evolutions and reduce the amount of Digimon partners a character has to 1, then I'd be down for it.

That'd be my ideal.

As long as I get big organic beetle monsters and badass Angels, I'm golden,

This is what I meant by Seasons 1 & 2 and little bit of 3.

For me:

Have a Tamer have at most 3 Digimon partners, like in most games, and nothing more
If there's to be DNA Digivolution, and not that Xros Fusion stacking on nonsense, make the combo Digimon actually look like a combo of the two, not just a new thing that's slightly related (looking at you, Ankylomon/Angemon).
Final enemy is an evil Tamer and his partner, not just some evil Digimon or Data entity
Royal Knights, if they are there, aren't asshats and actually side with/look out for the protagonists when they're not busy
If not the Royal Knights (that would be a surprise), please use the Olympus Twelve as the go to mythological pantheon
Kumamon/Bearmon is one of the main partner Digimon. Because I freaking love DigiWorld 3.
Maybe not cards like Tamers, so as not to step on its toes, but how about have the Tamers supply elemental chips in their new digivices that add power to their partner's attacks.
A Matt stand-in that isn't as much as an ass that he was (like Koji, something I actually like about Frontier).
Maybe one person with a Digi-Beetle. Because I'm a sucker for a tank.
A Digimon with a White Mage role.

I don't think having an evil human and his partner would really be that interesting, to be honest. None of the human villains Digimon has had have really been interesting in the slightest, and I doubt it would work just because he'd have a Digimon by his side. Having an evil Digimon works because it's easier to implement, but can still have a level of interest and depth to.

Also, thinking of the main villains, of the 6 series, it's only been a Digimon half the time, curiously, so it's not like it's really that overused.

How about this, try to do again what they did in Hunters, have a Digidestined who's one of the main team and his partner turns out to be the villain and has just been using him the whole time.

also have a female gogglehead, it would be an interesting change of pace.

I absolutely hate Cherubimon's design.

Why?

Which design specifically? I always found his evil design intimidating.
