Oh sorry, not talking about the Appmon thing. I mean the one with the 02 kids coming back. Unless that's also now based on apps? Which would be confusing but at this point I'm already confused so, whatever lolThis is a completely new series, focused on creatures called "appmon", which are basically digimon but never called that.
Instead of being based on things, animals and concepts like digimon, appmon are based on smartphone apps, like Musimon, Gatchmon (search), and Cameramon.
I don't think I've ever seen a classic digimon in that but I only watched a few episodes. I'm excited to watch it fully finally because despite the boring start I've been told it gets good later on.
it's after tri. but the thing is I believe not that much info about the movies other than it took place years later, and 02 casts aren't forgotten this time lolOkay, so context for this new movie/series (???)? I watched Tri, it kinda turned into a mess... is this in that spirit? A direct sequel to that? Or a sequel to the OG anime series while ignoring Tri?
The moment when #NeverForget becomes real!it's after tri. but the thing is I believe not that much info about the movies other than it took place years later, and 02 casts aren't forgotten this time lol
Yeah, the script is my main concern. I know the voices wouldn't bother me (even if only because of nostalgia, though as you said, I do remember them being solid), but I wasn't sure if the localization changes would be grating nowadays or not. As long as it's at least tolerable, I'd rather watch the dub (I've never been a fan of subs), but if it's bad enough, I'll watch it subbed. I guess I could watch a couple of episodes of both and see what I think though.If you've never seen Digimon subbed, doing it for the music alone is worth it. I prefer sub > dub, but Digimon honestly had one of the better ones, in terms of voice talent (script was... a different story at times).
If you want something new and fresh, go check out Digimon Universe App Monsters on Crunchyroll. Seriously, it's good :x
Does the English dub of Adventure still hold up well enough, or am I better off watching a subtitled version? Also, is there any legitimate way to watch the various non-Tri movies that pertain to those earlier seasons? I recall some of them getting English dubs on Disney XD or something towards the end of my run with the show.
Saint Seiya was actually the first thing that came into my mind too.Yeah with all the crazy designs being made now, I don't mind that space pony. Has a Saint Seiya look to it, too.
As someone who genuinely thinks Pokémon could learn a lot from Cyber Sleuth, checks this thread every now and again and doesn't watch much of the anime maybe I'm a good representative of general non-fanatical knowledge in the West.And it won't stop coming.
Ogudomon X
Honestly, how known is mid 2000s Digimon stuff here at West? How many here knew about that Demon Lords not only had Special Swords made for them, but that they can fuse into Abstract World Ending Monster? (Except this Ogudomon X was fused with 7 Diaboromon X carrying Demon Lord Swords)
I consider myself a big Digimon fan, but I hardly know anything outside of the anime series or some tidbits here and there.
Its an Adventure Movie so no 02 at all. That's it. (Well actually they do use somewhat but in absolute stupid way)I just finished watching the first Tri movie in English. Yeah, Tri is bad (never finished the original Japanese version, think I stopped after movie three) but I'm mostly watching it for nostalgia. It's cool that they got a chunk of the original cast back together and how they left the script and music alone. The scene when Agumon appeared had me grinning.
Though rewatching this movie, it's jarring that they cast makes no mention of the 02 team. Like, how?
kinda wanna go back and watch Adventure again but that dub is awful by today's standards. Might watch it in Japanese.
It's one thing to milk Adventure, but to make every single new thing focus on Tai and Agumon?
PLEASE. STOP IT.
I wonder who's going to voice him now, since Toshiko Fujita sadly passed away in 2018.
That's so good.I'm watching Appmon with my 9yo nephew, and we just got to episode 45.
That evolution sequence and battle with Brave Heart in the background really got me.
