Couple of things.
Why does no one ask where their Zero 2 friends are? What the fuck guys, thought they were your friends?! So now the Hypnos for the first Gen thing that half the Adventure 3 fanfics foretold has come to pass. I'm sure the internet is pleased with itself. Meiko screams of Hinata from Naruto, because Tai clearly doesn't seem interested right now but anyone can see they're going to ship the shit out them from that first meeting. Is Sora not dating Matt in this? Because I'm pretty sure, as much as I hate the guy, that they were officially a thing by the end of Zero 2, so why is she treating going to Tai's game as equal to her supposed boyfriend's gig? Mimi's teasing seems to suggest she isn't decided yet. Not cool with Angemon's Heaven's Knuckle/Hand of Fate being reduced to just a punch. Where's might Saint Seiya-esque light beam?! I DEMAND MY LIGHT BEAM!! Why is Tai not acting brave?! Crest of Courage was his thing!! I get not wanting civilians to get hurt, that I can sympathize with. But he seems to not get that without his pal stopping the rampaging Kuwagamon, it'll just cause more damage undisturbed. Having Greymon fight him actually lessens the damage caused because they're focusing on each other. Ultraman vs Kaiju fighting 101. He should know this by now, after 2 seasons (though to be fair, most of the old shows fights were never this bad. "Yay realism"...). All in all, I am so happy to see these guys back. I know a friend of mine whose going to be more than pleased by one ship being close to canon now.

Actually, I'm kinda curious about that too. Well Matt did point that out, however his doubts don't actually feel that out of place, the SkullGreymon incident means he knows better than anyone how dangerous their fights can get, and the 02 epilogue shows him as a politician, so this is probably the first stepping stone in him finding more ways to be brave and stand for his beliefs besides violence. |

Alphamon utterly wrecked them, it's possible that they've been missing for a while, hence why they don't get brought up.

Unless Alphamon erased memory of them when he defeats someone, why does no one think "Hey, you know those two who beat Armageddemon?! Might be useful here, don't you think?" It's one thing if you, the fans, don't like the characters, that's fine. To each his own. But the Zero 2 cast are these guys friends, and for them to not bring them up makes them seem more like jerks than I remember. I don't have to like Yamacha to recognize that Goku forgetting about him is a dick move.

It's one thing to not know that they're missing yet, it's only been a few days, but to not call them for the get together meeting or wonder why they haven't shown up for the fight is surprisingly dick-ish of the main 8. What the hell?

One of the trailers apparently bring up this line "This world has chosen the reality and the future which shouldn't have been chosen" So a fair amount of people do think memeories or time might be getting manipulated too. Yeah, I get ya and I personally think the way they handled it was a bit over the top, but in-universe there might be a perfectly logical reason as to why they aren't brought up, the fact that they showed up in the first place means they'll have a role. |

Okay, so two things right off the bat. First is that there better be a good reason to use Alphamon as the antagonist, because I'm really sick of using the Royal Knights as a crutch for villains.
"But Maytricks, Alphamon might not be the Knight iteration. It could just be some passing by Alphamon." Bite me. Alphamon is a big fucking deal. You don't just "Use" Alphamon. You don't just throw Alphamon into a story like he was Myotismon. There better be a really good fucking reason for why he's here. Second is that I don't like this new girl. The next movie/episode set/whatever better flesh her out. Her character archetype isn't anything new (I know this is Digimon we're talking about, but it's also 2015. Cliched characters in a 90's shonen I'll forgive, but not these days) and she's just a total bore. Her Digimon is interesting, but I'm not a fan of the cross eyes thing it's going for. Whatever. The story is okay. What more can I ask for, considering that they're working with a story that was pretty much bookended with it's fucking sequel series? I do enjoy the massive retcons they're performing to 02. Like Digimon being common knowledge to the public, or that Imperialdramon is leagues stronger than Omegamon (Thank you, Digimon Adventure tri, for correcting that load of bullshit), so cool. Also, while I may like changing what 02 established, it's still maddening because I feel it's not necessary to change. I can safely say I'm curious over how things will advance, at the very least, since Alphamon basically ran a train on our cast. Why do I like Mimi more than half the cast? That shouldn't be happening. Stop that. Also, I'm interested in where Jo's story is gonna go, since the pressure of school is on his shoulders more than ever. Taichi blue screening because of wanton destruction is stupid. I know that you can't pull the "Needs of the many" thing when people are feeling emotional, but goddammit, it was unnecessary. He knows there's only 12 people (Technically more thanks to 02, but they retconned that out, too, most likely) on the planet who can combat the threats (Despite them forgetting about 4 of them), but he still cries that people could get hurt from the fights. It seemed like a pointless addition solely to create a tension between him and Yamato just to emulate the original series. The rest of the cast were par for the course. Basically exactly what I expected from high school versions of them. That's nice. The Digimon never change, which I'm thankful for. Question, though. Why did no one outside of Agumon and Gabumon advance to Perfect/Ultimate? I thought there was something restricting them, but when those two did it, it just made this a large issue. The most noticeable case being Gatomon/Tailmon, who never evolved. What, saving Angemon with big boobies for the sequel? I'm glad they splashed in bits of humor, which gave the series a sense of spirit reminiscent of Adventure. Though it wasn't anything too special, it added some life that it desperately needed. Overall, I didn't hate it as much as I expected it to, but it also wasn't anything too special to me. I guess my animosity for Adventure has grown too much over recent years, but I still can at least say it wasn't bad. I'm thinking of trying to make a gif of Alphamon whooping Birdramon and Kabuterimon, too. Also Koshiro. ![]()

I saw the first episode of Tri and I really like it so far. Watching Tri made me feel 8 years old again. Watching Tri is like meeting a old friend from elementary school 15 years ago and now seeing them again 15 years later! I hope the dub will bring back the original voice cast. It took me a while to get used to the voices since I didn't grow up watching the series subbed. I saw Digimon once in Japanese RAW on a VHS tape when I saw Revenge of Diaboromon back in 2002.
Also is the cast of Season 2 now dead? I got kinda mad when I saw them being killed off? Season 2 was my favorite as a kid. |
