Everyone in the show is rather dull, I'll agree. The only thing that keeps the viewer interested (Well, for me, at least) is just the sheer curiosity over where the plot was going. Masaru as a fireball lead is so generic and overplayed that it actually made me realize how subdued Taichi and Davis were.
Tohma wasn't anything special, either, and while I had hoped that Yoshino would be the second coming of Ruki, she turned out to be even less effective than Mimi. It also seems like their partners were given basic personalities (Gaomon as Tohma's battle butler and Lalamon as a quiet observer) simply to place more emphasis on Masaru and Agumon (Also, while I doubt you can remember, I think Lalamon has the worst battle record for a main character, literally losing every fight as Lalamon and only winning once as Sunflowmon).

Savers didn't do much for me, really. After Kurata, things just didn't feel as cohesive, and I only finished it because I didn't want to give up on Savers for a 3rd time.
