WHAT IS DIGIMON GHOST GAME?
A new television anime produced by Toei in the greater Digimon franchise following the end of Digimon Adventure 2020. However, it will (presumably) be standalone and can be watched without having seen any previous Digimon shows.

SYNOPSIS
A bit into the future, a new technology has arrived.

On social networking sites, rumors of mysterious phenomenon of unknown truth were circulating known as, holographic ghosts.

First year junior high school student Amanokawa activated a mysterious device left by his father, known as a 'Digivice'.

When activated he can see unknown creatures that ordinary people can not see, Digimon.

From the day he meets the Digimon Gammamon, entrusted to him by his father, the air becomes thick as he is caught up in the bizarre phenomenon

There is also a 'Mouth Stitching Man' who steals human time, and a 'Mummy Man' who wanders around at night and kidnaps people.

Hologram ghosts are right next to us, and out to get us.

From here on out, it's a story of the other side of the world that no one knew. Together with Gammamon and his friends, he steps into the mysterious world where Digimon live.

I liked the reboot but I'm happy to have a new anime, I skipped the Appmon stuff though.

I miss Tai already, let's hope he will get a cameo in the very first episode of GG.

Appmon is great. I highly recommend it. I hope this new show will bring it too!
I'm gonna watch Appmon soon too as it's pretty much the last "main" Digimon anime production I have yet to watch. Hoping I like it since Digimon productions in the last decade have otherwise not done much for me.

Definitely looking forward to Ghost Game since the premise and everything we've seen seems like a nice change of pace.

Personally, I feel they're at their best when leave old stuff behind for once and do something new. I don't need to see Agumon ever again.

Looking forward to checking this out, really wish the reboot got a dub. Haven't checked that out yet.

The game adaptation should totally be called Ghost Anime.

Cool new digimon designs imo. The fairy is hella cute.

I already need a new game that has Gammamon in it. The show hasn't even aired yet and I already love the little guy.

I'm unfamiliar with how Crunchyroll simulcasts work, roughly how many hours after the television release does the episode become available?

Not sure on the exact hour but Crunchyroll uploads PreCure like 9ish PM PST Saturday? So I would imagine Digimon is a similar timeframe.

Oh my god, am i seeing this right? is one of the main pairs a boy human and a girl digimon?
i know this might seem like a silly point to fixate on (what can I say? mons series stuff is very Gender to me), but i have been waiting for this ever since 02 did it the opposite way.
honestly thought they'd never do it (if nothing else than for merch-driven reasons, gotta sell those boys those boys toys).
i havent been interested in digimon in a long time but if they really actually did that i might watch this one for that alone.
(but helps that the vibe seems cool to me as well. as a tamers and savers fan i like the series best when it's not cloying adventure nostalgia)

Yep, that's what they're doing this time around.

I didn't want to include too many leaks/promo stuff in the OP, but I think generally speaking I would prefer if people do post them here, spoiler tag them. My rule of thumb would be to tag it if it hasn't shown up in the anime yet, I think.

Fair. Technically the forms are officially revealed via Dim Cards, but just not in the show. If anyone's curious and hasn't seen yet:

The OP pretty much spoiled a bunch of the evos, even ones we haven't officially seen, so if you're avoiding them heed that

Variable evolutions are neat even though they'll be forgotten about like the variable forms of Kamen Riders always fall by the wayside once the true upgrades show up.

The OP is great.

Angoramon's evo looks great. Big King Kazama vibes.
Jellymon's is alright. Just looks like a more grown up version of her. Hopefully her perfect and ultimate have a bigger change.
Gammamon's evos all look nice. My favorite is the green one.
