XD we need more skilled English Voice Actors...

but did anybody play that Digimon games on the Playstation ?

i didn't like it since it confused me and it had nothing to do with Season 1 + 2

fisah · « **Reply #82 on:** July 03 2005, 03:04 pm »

I didn't play them, Im not much of a fan of the Digimon games, also, I like roleplay, and I think there was one that was just fighting, hardly any dialog, and it bored me and my friend to death, so yeah. The other ones are a little better, but there not Season 01/02 XD

People who asked if Ken was with anyone....officially he's with Yolei. But there are several Daiken (Daisuke/Ken) pairings out there too.

Yes, the last 02 episode was so rubbish....I hated it. As for movies....there's at least 7, although the first 2 got compressed into Digimon:The Movie for Western viewers. Not a big fan of the less detailed drawings in the movies though.

And wow! First no one posted here, then boom! Yay!

fisah · « **Reply #86 on:** July 06 2005, 04:47 am »

Oh wow, I know what you mean, some of the pairings were out of the blue, like a product of the crews crack or something

Either way, theres fanfiction out there with a much better ending ^^

Ken/Yoliei is okay, though I sorta kinda like Ken/Daisuke as well *shot for such yaoi-ness*

Ruby Chan · « **Reply #87 on:** July 06 2005, 05:10 am »

If you're shot, then I was crucified a long time ago! No Sora and Yamato, Taichi and Sora, Mimi and Jou for me!

Taito, Daiken and Joushiro all the way for me! Although I do kinda like Kenlei.

fisah · « **Reply #88 on:** July 06 2005, 06:34 am »

LMAO, Ken/Daisuke is the only yaoi paring I like, also Joushiro is okay I guess. *hahaha, to nerds make the perfect match*

*ahem*

But, I'm not really liking the Digimon fandom, so kudos for you ^^ You can like whatever you want, and I use to like Taito a while, since Taiora was totally bashed and hit and totally thrown by the producers, but I'm going back to my roots ^^ I'm a sucker for het as well

Ruby Chan said that she was tired of people saying Didgimon is a kids show. People that have said that obviously haven't seen uncut episodes. Also Mayumi Yamaguchi (Gabumon, Lee,) was once asked if she watched Digimon. Her response was that she didn't because she felt it was a kiddy show, but the majority of voice actors that have done interviews about Digimon seem to like & watch it.

I give up trying to explain the differences between foreign cultures and their censorship regulations.....

Ruby Chan · « **Reply #91 on:** July 08 2005, 03:53 am »

Yes, but even though the dubbed version of Digimon was shown on kids channels, it doesn't mean that it was a kid's show. They really tackled some things, like divorce, insecurities, fear, helplessness....and the slow development of Tai and Matt from enemies to mere rivals to best friends. And think about Adventure, in the last few episodes. Tai was getting so hurt in the battle against Piedmon, but he wouldn't give up.

And 02 dealed with sibling abuse, and facing the darkness inside you...and taught that everyone has the right to forgiveness. Tamers had Jeri's insecurities, and Impmon's lack of purpose (and the way the Digidestined reacted over Leomon's death).

And Frontier had divorce, evil inside yourself, and dying (think Kouchi in hospital)

If you just think back, you can see issues that are normally shown in older programmes.

Well said Ruby Chan, Digimon is a show that talks about real life problems, and how it impacts the characters.

However, I think people are always comparing Pokemon to Digimon, its always compared, and its depressing and annoying, because they are completely different shows, even though Pokemon is a little more kiddy, Digimon is in another whole league, it just doesn't have them battling digimon, it shows them have character development, and many different situations that shows them develop and interact.

Also, the dub and the original are a little different, that being said, the angst and soul searching was more up in your face than the dub, and also, the dub was actually suppose to be aimed for kids, while the original was for everyone. People have to think about that before comparing the shows, because the dub and the original have some differences.

I like Digimon, I use to watch it as a kid, but I still love it, mind you, it had nothing to do with the digimon or the battles, at all. I liked it because of the characters, the dynamics, how they changed, how close they were, there pasts, everything. For example, the Takeru and Yamato's subplot had to be the most intersting thing in all of Digimon. I loved how they showed Takeru and Yamato's relationship, and the family problems, and the reason why the acted the way they did.

Sora was another one, they showed how she didn't want to work in the flower shop with her mom, how she fought with her mom alot, and how it affected her abilities as a digidestined.

I also love how they interacted, how Taichi seemed to worry about everyone, how Yamato tried to act cool, but his care for his friends made him a better person. Even their crests was a big thing since it showed why they got it, and how they reacted. It suprised me at first why Yamato got friendship crest, but as its character developed, you see the reason why, and it intrigues you.

Digimon is for all ages, even the dub can be watched by all, the point is that Digimon has many hidden messages and morals, and that's why it makes this anime memorable and loved.

If you ask me Tamers wasn't for kids in the first place. It was really violent. Also I didn't mean to sound like I hated Digimon. I love Digimon Tamers. And has anyone seen Digimon X-evolution yet?

Cardcaptor Takato · « **Reply #94 on:** July 08 2005, 10:17 pm »

Yet kids watch Dragonball Z in Japan which is a heck of a lot more violent than Digimon....

Nope, not yet. Know anywhere where I can download it? I can't seem to find it anywhere?

Plus, anyone seen the newer Digimon manga, Digimon Chronicles? It's meant to be good....

Ralea · « **Reply #98 on:** July 10 2005, 11:05 am »
