Personally, I want the original cast to be brought back to do a proper dubbing, but that's a pipe dream at best. Again, this is mostly directed at Tamers because it's so good that it deserves an uncut proper release.


PS I don't care if they leave the name changes though due to those changes being minimal.


It's defintely the only season I'd buy on DVD and I'm sure as hell not paying $80 for just the sub par dubbing.

If they do release an uncut, dubbed Tamers (I loved the English voice cast for that series, btw), I have one stipulation: Keep Rika's name "Rika."
(It's a personal thing. I just don't like the name "Ruki")

Anyway, Tamers does deserve a DVD release. A (Semi) serious Digimon series that had the characters face repercussions for their actions, actually called out on their stupid decisions, taking place in the real world (For a good chunk), actual feelings of tension in fights (The "Digimon can't die" mentality removed due to the introduction of data absorption), the cards giving neat effects (And not pointlessly tacked on, like the D-Tectors in 02), and the only (Non dub related) misstep being Tamer Ryo's inclusion.
Yeah, I'd easily pick up a DVD of that ^^

It's also one of the only seasons to not succumb to the "Power duo" that Digimon is basically infamous for (By the halfway point, only allowing 2 characters to become strong enough to even matter in a fight beyond "Distraction" or "Meatshield."). Though, to be fair to both Adventures, Frontier was the worst about it (Requiring the other powers just to evolve? I think Lowemon/Koichi (Spirit of Darkness) was in a whopping 2 fights? :I)
