Digimon
 

http://www.toei-anim.co.jp/tv/digimon_s/

Uh so I toggled with the idea of putting this in the Media section, but then figured that Digimon COULD be classified as anime, especially considering where it comes from.

I dont know how many years since a new digimon anime season was released (I think the last one was Frontier) and I am not sure how excited I am for this one yet. It seems promising, as I really have not enjoyed Digimon since the original Adventure and 02. I used to be one of those guys who preferred the english dub over the original japanese with content, but if you have ever heard the differences is music between the two...you will know the japanese one is superior.

Anyway, I assume that only Digimon fans will be into Savers, apparently its going to take 3 people (not really kids anymore..more like teenagers) and give them 3 digimon. I am not sure too much on what the story will be like..but it debuts in April. I know I will be looking for a torrent of it after it airs...even raw.

Wow. I never knew there was a 5th season...I guess I haven't been kept up with the news. I'm not sure I like the idea of having teenagers, plus the fact we've already seen Agumon in 2 seasons already. However, I'm glad they're keeping the main character count low, ala Tamers and Frontier.

I'd need more information about it first before deciding if it's worth my time. Tamers was the best of the bunch, and I doubt this one can knock it off the throne.

P.S. The Tamers dub rules. Can't say the same for the 02 Adventure dub though. Ye gads, that sure was hideous.

I dont know, I sort of liked the voicework done in the 02 dub. Still nothing beats watching it with SUBs, considering 02 had the best music. I just started downloading and watching Tamers, not sure if I like it. I watched Frontier in its entirely, which I thought was dumb due to the fact of humans BECOMING digimon...and Tamers...I dunno. The whole concept I dont like, it seems like a card game come to life/animation.

Savers, like I said...could be good or bad depending on what they do with it.

Voicework or not, the jokes in the 02 dub was horrific. It totally ruined the season for me. For me, I think Tamers had the best music.

I think Tamers is the best for many, many reasons: better character development, better Digimon, better plot, better music, better characters, and the fact that it's more dramatic/serious than the other seasons. For example, when Digimon bite the dust, they stay that way. I didn't mind the card slashing at all. The dub had better jokes than the sub.

I'll watch a new eps of Savers when it comes out, and decide then what to do think of it. I don't know what's up with yet another canine Digimon though. Aside from 02, every season has a starring doggy Digimon. Garurumon/Renamon/Garmmon anyone? I do love canines, however, so it's fine with me.

I'm not so sure what to think of Savers at the moment. My friend absolutely positively cannot wait for the first episode to air and will drop everything to go download a raw, but I'm rather reserved in terms of my attitude towards the series. There's just something about it that doesn't seem quite right with me.

I'll just have to wait and see it, I guess.

I'll probably give this show a chance when it comes out. The way I figure, no further Digimon animation could be worse than Frontier (it totally ruined the entire series for me), so this show has to at least be somewhat good. I'm not expecting it to be Tamers good (or probably not even Adventure/02 good), but at least if it's somewhat interesting I'll stick with it (though I'm not desperate enough to watch raws just to see it).

i'd rather see this subbed.. the first 2 digimon series was really good - only the bgm was all spiderman music @.@

I think alot of people hated Digimon after Frontier, although I think I should of seen it coming eventually. I believe that they used the "humans merging with Digimon" in Tamers so it was only a matter of time before it was all about the humans. What I liked best about Adventure was the hilariary between the chosen and their digimon. Ive seen a little of that in Tamers but it was not possible in Frontier since there were no Digimon. Just the cliche group....goggle main character, the evil one turned good, the ditzy girl, the fat guy...and the kid.

Has anyone managed to catch the dubs of the movies that came out last year? I just saw the fourth movie not too long ago ...which it wasnt too bad (although some of the voicework was off) ...much much MUCH better then the original Digimon movie.

Was it really spiderman music??
The first season was the best. No other season could top it. But this season has Augumon so there's an up. I saw a trailer clip and he's slightly different. He has some kind of brace on his arms and when he digivolves into Greymon he has thorns on his shoulder.

I didn't hate Frontier, but it just wasn't as good as earlier seasons. I'm not a traditionalist, so I didn't mind at all if humans could change into Digimon. I thought it was a pretty unique concept, and I'm sure lots of kids would love to be able to become Digimon and fight themselves instead of having a Digimon fight for them.

Unfortunately, I thought the plot was draggy. There were too many sidestops and too many encounters with silly Digimon like those hamburger guys and trains. The Digimon designs in Frontier were quite lacking, except for the main characters. I still haven't seen the entire show actually, although I have them all DLed. I guess after Tamers I thought Frontier would have the same quality, but it didn't.

I haven't caught the dubbed 4th movie last year. It aired on Toon Disney and I don't get that channel. I sincerely hope it's better than the Digimon Movie, as it was hideous, and I usually LIKE dubs. I have seen all 8 movies subbed, but I really want to see the two Tamers movies dubbed. My favourite movie is Runaway Digimon Express, followed by Digimon X-Evolution. The latter was quite darkish for Digimon, even darker than Tamers, which was a refreshing change of pace from the norm. MetalGarurumonX rocked. Digimon Express had Rika/Ruki trying to kill Takato with a pipe. Awesome stuff.

I liked Frontier if not only for Koji's rawk-awesome Digimon. And then he became good. :( So lame, didn't bother watching it after that.

I liked Frontier at first, but after awhile it started getting pretty dry. The news of the reduction of the series' length didn't make things any better.

In my eyes, nothing will be able to beat Tamers. Kids probably didn't like it because it got too emo, but I think it's the emo-ness and mature storyline that puts it above the rest.

Agumon digivolves into a different version of Greymon, its called Geo-Greymon to be specific. Im sure if its ever dubbed they will change it to something gay, like Earth-Greymon. I dont like the other 2 partner Digimon.

Tamers I think was good up until the whole D-reaper stuff. I didnt think id like any of it, the beginning was boring, the middle was great and then after Beelzlemon...it was stupid.

Frontier, I dont think I ever saw the whole series. I remember seeing the 2nd to last episode...with Susanoomon or whatever, and seeing all the stuff with Kouichi turning good...and the show doesnt seem TOO BAD. I think its watchable, and at least the characters have a little personality. Still a little too cliche for me. Plus I like how later on in the season...all the secondary characters (the girl, fat kid, and the child) all are worthless.

I loved Tamers; it's one of my favorite anime series ever and the only "monster" anime I'd ever reccomend to anyone else. It's one of my faves because of the reasons mentioned already. However, if anyone remembers, Tamers more or less killed the anime franchise in Japan.

That being said, I'm not sure what to make of this new series. The character designs make it seem like it's going for a more mature feel, but will Toei try that road after what happened with the third series? What's up with the lack of info on the site...? = (

My sentiments exactly, Lee-chan. When it comes to anime with monsters, Tamers is the only series I'd recommend. In fact, I did just that several days ago with an online friend of mine.

I'm still confused as to why Tamers killed the anime franchise though. It had great ratings at first, then hit rock bottom later. I thought the Japanese LIKED dark stories and such, but apparently they didn't like the way Tamers did it. I personally loved it, but whatever.

As for Savers, I'd watch it regardless of the terrible lack of info. After all, it's the first Digimon anime to appear in three long years. I never thought I'd ever see a new series again. Huzzah!

My guess is because the target audience for the Digimon series was the preteen audience. That was fine for the two first seasons, which were very lighthearted, but then Tamers came along. It wasn't a bad series at all, but it just didn't hit the mark with the audience that had been established with the franchise... which I guess would be expected. I mean, the guy who did SEL and Hellsing producing a kid's show and all.

I only saw the first several episodes of Tamers, but it was way too slow compared to the first two seasons, so I lost interest in it. Maybe the same happened for many others? It's too bad, because apparently the show got a whole lot better, later on in the season.

The Digimon Attraction Site has updated the Event page with information about the OP, ED, and an insert song for the series.

OP: Gouing! Going! My Soul!! (Dynamite SHU)
ED: One Star (Ito Yousuke)
Insert: Believer (IKUO)

I don't know a thing about Dynamite SHU or IKUO, but Ito Yousuke was Dekagreen in Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger and Urahara Kisuke in the BLEACH Rock Musical.

Man, I'm gonna miss Wada Kouji and AiM :(

Getting close to the airdate :D

I find all the Bleach conections funny, as Rukia from Bleach is voiced by the same voice actor who did Ruki.

I know this will probably sound really dumb to all of you who have been watching Digimon subbed, but how different is it from what Fox showed (shows)? They have a tendency to butcher anything they get their hands on, so I was curious about how much they've cut out.

I watched pretty much all of the first season and found it pretty enjoyable overall, with a nice climactic battle at the end. Season 2's new characters were just kind of annoying though, so I haven't really seen an episode since then.

Um...it's a bit uncomparible, realy, some lines are better done both ways.

unless if it's Zero two we're talking about, English Zero Two sucked from the get go and the jp version followed after the Daimon arc.

Watch Zero 1, Tamers and this coming series. Don't bother with Zero Two and Frountier, they'll just brunya.

For one thing, there's no stupid jokes. The series more or less takes itself seriously.

I agree somewhat with Conan-the-3rd.

Adventure's dub was decent. Zero 2 sucked arse. The writers apparently felt like adding a bunch of horrible jokes that had left me cringing in my seat. I've only seen one episode of the Japanese version so I can't say whether they have crappy jokes too.

After the crap that was Zero 2, I thought Tamers would be just as bad. I was very pleasantly surprised. There's still jokes in it, but they're actually funny this time around. They pretty much stopped joking altogether further into the episodes though, which is a good thing. In other words, the Tamers dub ROCKED. It is a much better dub than Zero 2. After watching a few eps in Japanese, however, I was disappointed that none of the funny jokes were in it.

I've barely seen many eps of the Frontier dub, but it didn't seem so bad from what I've watched. Neemon's voice was much better in Japanese.

The Frontier dub wasn't bad, it was just the story that sucked. I haven't seen it in Japanese, but I thought the dub was probably the best part of that show, since almost everything else about it is bad.

I stopped liking the Digimon Series after the second season.

The first season kept my interest and the second season expanded upon that. I also loved the second season because of the great fanfics they came out of it. (Daisuke X Takeru yaois = goodness).

But then the third season came around and it seemed like they didn't even know what to do. I mean, card evolutions? This isn't Yu-Gi-Oh. Everything about that season bugged me. I hoped that would be the end of the Digimon series.

...Then the 4th one came around. It was somehow even worse then the third. I didn't care to really watch it.

I'm curious to see how bad....er...how this season will turn out. >_>

I take it you've never heard of the Digimon Trading Card Game?

It looks like the people who didn't like Tamers are the same people who don't ever want to see things change. Adventure and Zero 2 both were consistent since they take place in the same universe, but Tamers added lots of new stuff, including characters and evolutions. The most common complaints I see from disgruntled fans are "I want to see [insert name of first or second season character here]!" "I want the old Digimon!" "Why are they using cards? The first season didn't have it!"

I LIKE the fact that Digimon tries new things each season. Compare that to Pokémon, a show that NEVER changes every season. It's the same damn storyline every bloody time. That's what made me stop watching the show, since it became so very horribly repetitive. It goes to show you that change is good.

I wasn't even aware that that show had seasons. I just started thinking of it as one big continuous blob of crap after awhile, so I stopped watching it as well. I actually remember the exact episode where I started thinking this too, something about a hot air balloon, stuff happened, Team Rocket came, blah, blah, blah. Needless to say, that was the last one I ever watched.

That all being siad, they took it WAY too far with Frountier. I would sorta understand if it was some sorta Turn A Digimon (encoperating all four series) but realy, it was Digital Force Monranger or Power Rangers: Digital Force.

Not raging on Live action, it has it's place, but the format does NOT lead to Digimon well.

Same here.

This is completely random, but...

Aw man, now I'm tempted to use a Digimon avatar/sig theme. It'd be cool if there was a related theme week.

EDIT: That Gabumon is the CUTEST. THING. EVAR. <3

I know :D

Yeah, I guess that's another reason Tamers was the best... But the people at Toei obviously like making people cry. Meanies. ;_;

I lol if they go and cleché bust that paturlar stand of Digmion folklore.
(and it's certainly due up, it always happens on odd numbered digimon series :biggrin:)

Freelance Wolf, you have opened my eyes...

I guess it is good that they are trying new things each season.

I stopped watching Pokemon as well because it was the exact same thing each time. Ash, why won't you die...;_;

Wow, I actually influenced someone, hahaha.

Anyway, I gave in and changed my avatar and sig. Gabumon is my fave Digimon in Adventure, but I do like Guilmon more.

Getting closer and closer to the Savers airdate! I think they should have used X Digimon instead though. I dig lots of the designs.

As much as I complain about the new Digimon seasons, I'll probably still watch it.

I got my Digimon Character Songs [Limited Edition] CD today....oh, I just had to say that.

Does the main character still have googles?

Even if you didn't like the later seasons, you should still watch a few episodes of Savers. Your opinion wouldn't be valid otherwise, if you get what I mean. Even then, sometimes shows start out crappy at first, but gets way better later, so unless it's really extra bad, I'd be watching the entire run before I can form a better opinion.

Man, I wish I had real Digimon CDs. Which one do you have? I'd love to get a rip from you if it's something I need.

Since Savers seem to be going in a different direction this time around, it's very possible that the main character this time won't have goggles. I don't see the appeal of an older teenager running around wearing a goggle either. However, goggles have always been a tradition among Digimon so I'd still like to see it, despite what I said earlier.

Yes, there is a lot of shows that start of slow and get better. I believe the 4th season was like that. I am surprised that he doesn't have goggles though. That's a first. Guess last season was the end of the google gang.

But as for the CDs. I purchased the 'Digimon the Movie' soundtrack and the 'Digimon Character Songs' (which cost me $55 bucks @_@) albums. I barely listened the the Character songs album yet though, but I love the Movie soundtrack. Especially since it has the Digimon raps and Hey Digimon, which were some songs I liked in the episodes.

If you're interested in the soundtracks, I could send them to you, if you want.

I still haven't seen all of Frontier yet. I have all the subbed episodes on DVD, yet I don't feel like watching them.

Haha, that's why I don't often buy import CDs a lot, although I'd like to. The price just turns me off. The last import CD I got was Final Fantasy VIII. It's an original, and it was for only a measly $20 USD, far cheaper than what I normally see on other websites. Are the CDs you got the ones with the image songs for the Digimon and his/her partner? If so, there's a lot of those for each season, so I wanted to know exactly which ones you have.

Can't say I like much of the American Digimon music, but I did like 'Hey Digimon' despite it's cheesiness. Actually, I can't remember much of the music from the movie, so I guess I'd like a rip. You do VBR? That's what I generally prefer, but if you can't, anything 192 and up would be good.

yes, I prefer VBR. I'll try to send you the Digimon Movie soundtrack tomorrow.

The Digimon Character Songs, I'm pretty sure it is the image songs. Here's what I got.

http://www.cduniverse.com/search/xx/...cter+Songs.htm

Tell me if you're still interested in it.

I think my personal favorite was the 2nd ED of Tamers. Need to find the full version sometime...

soniclover: I have the songs in that CD you've shown me, but the ones I have are much lower quality. Would you mind ripping both CDs for me then?

Dhsu: http://s52.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1...42U6RXN7DOM31H
Here you go. If you want anymore, just let me know.

P.S. Do any of you guys know of a website/FTP that has high quality versions of Digimon songs? I'd love to restart my song collection with better quality files. Lots of mine are 125kbit.

I'm afraid I don't know any websites or FTPs with High quality Digimon songs, but I can't say I've looked around too much.for any other soundtracks then the 1sr and second seasons.

I rip my CDs with Exact Audio Copy and Lame. I'd PM you both of the albums by later today, hopefully.

Tamers was by far my favorite season, so I was a bit miffed to find out that the rumor about Savers being a sequel as false. Still, the trailer looks interesting enough, so I'll give it a shot.

My only gripe is that the girl's plant digimon looks dumb. Give me Palmon over that thing anyday. :p

Wow, thanks! I didn't actually expect someone to have it. :D

No problem :3 Anything for a fellow Digimon fan. Is there any other songs you want?

Is it okay if I make a request? I know it's a stretch, but I've been wanting to here some of the Tamers Christmas songs for a long time. Apparently Yamaki sings this one scary song, and then there's... Kurumon <3. Just curious.

Lee-chan:

1. Believe (AiM)
2. Christmas Alone (Impmon/Beelzemon)
3. Black Christmas (Yamaki and the two girls)
4. Digimon Christmas Medley (Guilmon, Renamon, Terriermon, Calumon)
5. Santamon wo Sagase (The tamers)
6. Sorry. I don't have this song. It's called Utaou Bokura no Merry Christmas, and Wada Kouji sings it.

P.S. My favourite Digi OP is The Biggest Dreamer.

Here I come to the rescue with Utaou Bokura no Merry Christmas.

Thanks a lot, soulsteelgray! Funny, I've definitely heard that song before, but I don't seem to have it in my collection. Weird.

Thanks a bunch, guys!

As far as openings go, I'll have to stick with the old school and say my favorite is "Butterfly".

Yep, you can't go wrong with Butter-Fly.

I'm kind of iffy on what ED to pick as my favorite, though. In retrospect they're just not as great as I initially found them to be. I guess I'd have to pick either Days -Aijou to Nichijou- or an Endless tale.

As much as I'd like to see a Tamers sequel, the ending seemed pretty close-ended to me, and it was a nice sweet ending too. Besides, the second Tamers movie takes place after the ending, so that's good enough to call it a sequel.

I don't like that girl's plant Digimon either. Not only do I hate plant monsters in video games and TV shows, but it's Champion form looks similiar to Sunflora the Pokémon. I bloody hate Sunflora >_>

In fact, all the Rookie forms don't look so hot. That dog Digi reminds me of Bearmon. His Champ form has glove claws on his front paws, just like Grizzmon, and both Digis are blue -_-; Give me Garurumon or Garmmon any day. Even Agumon looks worse than he did in Adventure. Compare both Agumons. The Savers Agumon has oval nostrils, whereas the Adventure Agumon has normal looking dino-like ones. He looked more realistic.

As for my favourite Ending theme, I don't like them as much as the Opening themes (I love them all except for Target). I think Ashita wa Atashi no Kaze ga Fuku is my favourite.

P.S. If only there was a Digimon video game that was a good as any of the Pokémon ones. The Digimon games that I do like all have problems with them that prevent them from becoming awesome games. Is anyone else peeved that Digi Rumble Arena 2 was made only for Adventure fanboys? I was POed that only one measly Tamers Digi made it to the character roster, and there were 4 of them in the first game!!!

P.P.S. Still waiting for WereGarurumon to show up in a fighting video game *sigh* He's my favourite Digimon :(

P.P.P.S. Is it just me, or are we the only Digi fans on this board?

To your PPPS, you'd sorta think...

Anyway, only a few days before the Raws show up.

Bumping for the Torrent of Episode 1 (Raw)

http://forum.digimonhimitsu.com/viewtopic.php?t=1544 (No Need for registering)

Hehe, some of the elements work very well, Agumon reffering to Masaru as "Anikii" (Big Bro, or Brother, not sure) and then trying to EAT him is utter halerity.

But I'm glad at least one Fansubber (who's not WPP) is taking this on, we might get it in a timely fashion then :O [SD Project if you want a read up on them]

Okay, sorry for not posting in this thread. I wanted to wait until a subbed version came out. I never download raws. Here are my thoughts on the first episode:

It is a lot more enjoyable than I thought. While I don't really like the designs of the new characters, Savers could be as good as Tamers if they play their cards right. One thing that struck me was that there was a lot more close-knit bonding between the partners than most of Adventure! That's something I definitely appreciated in Tamers (Guilmon and Takato particular), and I certainly welcome that here too.

I actually liked Agumon in this one. I never liked him much in Adventure, but this Agumon is funnier, more 'macho' if you want to call it that, and GeoGreymon's design is neat. Rawr!! I loved those swirly eyes when he got hungry, haha.

Doesn't Kudamon remind you of Linoone from Pokémon? Maybe they're both weasels or mink or whatever the heck they are? It's pretty awkward to see adults with Digimon partners though, but who knows. Maybe it'd turn out fine. I'm just not used to it yet.

The new digivice looks like a cel phone!

Is it just me, or does the general public already know that Digimon exist? I didn't think that ol' fisherman would have a spare digivice on him!

I'm looking forward to more episodes. I love the work WPP has done on the Digimon series, but yes, they're pretty slow. I hope they don't bail out altogether though, like Toriyama's World with Naruto. Their subs were the best, but they were so damn slow that they eventually stopped subbing the series altogether : /

P.S. I like the evolution song!!! Anyone got a full version? :D

Man, I hope this thread isn't dead. It's not often I get to talk to other fans! None of my online friends watches the series :(

After all the talk about Savers in here, I thought more people besides Conan-the-3rd would have downloaded the episodes to watch : /



It's only the second episode, but I'm already growing quite fond of the show. It looks to be a combination between Adventure and Tamers, the best of both worlds. Now if only Yoshino was a tad more pro-active.

I'm not really up to date on fansubbed anime (I hardly watch any), but I assume I can get these on animesuki, right? If so, I'll try to download them and watch them tonight.

EDIT: Okay, there is like three different versions. Which one should I get?

The first episode made me go "ehhhh" at the concept, but the second episode made me like the series a bit more. Yoshino's still boring, though.

I think I might really get into the series when they do the typical oh-noes-we-have-to-go-save-the-Real-and-Digital-Worlds bit. There's just more drama there.

Get the With The Will (WTW) ones, or Wolf Pack Productions (WPP) whenever they get around to subbing it.

@soulsteelgray, they go to the Digital World in the next several episodes. The first episodes are usually the worst, since you have to go through the trouble of introducing everyone and setting up the stage. However, I've enjoyed the 2nd Savers ep very much, which is indeed promising.

*yays at the replies*

Next several episodes? Wow, that's fast. I was expecting the crossover to be somewhere around halfway into the series.

Okay, I just got through watching the first two episodes, and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. I knew the show couldn't be any worse than Frontier, but I think it's almost as good as Tamers! It's still early though, so anything can happen.

First off, I love the new digivices. The design of them is pretty cool, and I like how they have the ability to store the digimon inside of them (though, unlike pokeballs, you can still interact with your digimon). The only thing I want to know more about is how come Masaru has to attack the enemy digimon first to get its data or whatever to make Agumon evolve even though Yoshino doesn't have to do that to make Raramon evolve. Does it have to do with Masaru, Agumon, or the digivice itself (kinda weird how some old guy just came up and gave it to him)?

As for the digimon themselves, I haven't really liked any of them so far except for Agumon/GeoGreymon (though I did like that turlte-looking one inside DATS HQ as comic relief). Raramon/Sunflomon doesn't look too good and also doesn't look too powerful, and Kudamon's design annoys me for some reason. Hopefully he'll be good in battle though. Both the enemy digimon so far haven't appealed to me either, but we'll probably never see them again so that doesn't matter.

Overall, I'm definitely going to stick with this series. Unless they manage to really screw up the plot, I don't see this series being that bad.

I'm still iffy on those digivices. They look more like MP3 players or something. It is pretty nifty how Digimon can be stored inside them, however. It makes it very convenient when travelling, and you don't attract attention to yourself. It's too bad Takato is in the wrong series. I'm sure he would've benefited from one of these XD

The only Digimon I like so far is also Agumon, which is surprising because I've never liked that Rookie much. He has a very amiable personality in Savers and makes a good partner for Masaru. They're both very amusing together :3 At least Sunflowmon, while a plant monster, has some reptile parts to her (it?). I like Kudamon, but I'm biased because I think he's a combination of Furret and Linoone, two Pokémon which I love. That turtle Digimon may get some backlash from Pokémon fans claiming he's a Squirtle rip-off : / Hopefully Gaomon would be cool. He makes his first appearance in the third episode.

I think that old guy could be related to Masaru, like his father or grandfather. That's what the general consensus is so far to the fans.

What I really want to see is AeroVeedramon in Savers. He's one of my favourites, but to date he hasn't appeared in any of the shows. Some other new Digimon enemies would be nice too. Flymon and Cockatrimon are such pretty old monsters. A ton of new monsters have arrived since then. Why don't the animation company use them?

I think Savers has lots of potential to be on par with Tamers if they keep it up, although I doubt it will surpass Tamers. That holds a special place in my heart. I haven't had this much fun at a Digimon episode since, well, when I last saw Tamers! That ep where Juri was going after Leomon was a riot!

The Digital World appears in either episodes 5 or 6.

Bumping the thread 'cause the third episode just came out!

Get it through torrent or direct download!

Thanks for the link! I just got a new computer, so I haven't downloaded a torrent program yet.

I'm downloading it now, but I don't when I'll get around to watching it. I'm typing a paper now, and I have classes the next two days. I probably won't get around to it until this weekend.

I saw episode 3 last night and couldn't type up my 'review' until tonight. Everything's contained in the spoilers:



I may say more if other people comment.

I just watched Episode 3.

I must say, the main character is a bit pissy. I don't know if I'm really all that intriuged by this season. The characters seem too common and boring. Angry characters always annoyed me. And the main character is too angry and pushy.

For someone who is an angry person, he sure has the best expressions, so it all evens out, haha. I don't think he's really that angry anyway. I think he's funny, but that's just me. Tohma, on the other hand, should be shot.

Remember, it's only the third episode. It takes time for some character development (if any) to occur, so stick it there, hee hee.

Meh, a rivalry again? I liked the fact that Jenrya and Takato from Tamers actually got along from the start.

My only other gripe would be that Yoshino and Raramon seem rather useless in combat so far. She didn't do anything against Cockatrimon in episode 1, and she got owned in epsode 2. However, judging from the OP, it seems Raramon's final form may be Rosemon, so that's something to look forward to.

Episode 3 summary: Touma is a fucking prick.

Seriously, he annoys me to no end, This series was pretty good so far until they added this generic stuck-up rich kid. And to top it all off, I hate his digimon as well. I never once found myself rooting for this guy.

At least this episode a good bad digimon in PetitMeramon/Meramon. Best one so far, though I wonder how long they're gonna keep going with these random, standalone bad guys. Maybe there will be an overarching villain when they go to the digital world.

It had the potential to be a good episode, but Touma ruined it (and possibly the whole series) for me. I hope he drops that attitude sometime during the series, because it's not very appealing.

Wow, so nobody likes Tohma so far. I thought lots of people liked guys like those, as evidenced by the myraid of Sasuke fans *GAG!* I'm the person who always cheers for the underdog.

However, Naruto is my favourite anime, even though Sasuke is a prick and whatnot, so I'm still having hopes for Digimon Savers. I'll post in here whenever new eps get subbed, to keep you up to date.

I just think it's a cliche relationship. The whole "angry rebel without a cause" vs the calm person has been overdone.

I guess I like the Naruto and Sasuke relationship more because both are fighting for a purpose and not just mindlessly fighting like so many other main characters.

Okay! The 4th episode is up!

I just finished watching it and it's far better than the 3rd episode!



Next episode should be cool, 'cause they Awesome.

I don't know what happened, but Masaru and Agumon seemed way more annoying in this episode to me than Touma and Gaomon (though yeah, I still hate that 'Yes, Master!" thing). I still hated Touma's attitude towards Masaru, but at least he wasn't acting brash in trying to defeat Drimogemon like Masaru was. And of course, Yoshino and Raramon were totally useless once again.

As for Drimogemon, I can't say I really liked him that much. He was just too cutesy to the point of annoyance, in my opinion. Not only that, but he never really ever seemed to fight back, another thing I didn't really like. At least he'll be doing that in the next episode, though.

I'm also still waiting for an explanation on why both Yoshino and Touma can make their digimon evolve without having to attack the enemy digimon themselves like Masaru has to. I may just be focusing on this too much, but it just bugs me that they haven't explained (or even touch on) this yet.



And thanks once again for the direct download, Wolf!

Well, since you didn't post spoilers...

Masaru only wanted to beat Drimogemon to show Tohma that he wasn't useless to DATS. That's the impression I got out of it. What IS surprising is that Tohma was the one who went after Drimogemon to the Digital World, even going as far as to defy the Commander's orders. That's certainly something I would have seen Masaru doing instead.

Aww, I think Drimogemon was just fine. He was just a scared Digimon and wasn't willing to fight. Something tells me he's was only acting the part though, considering he can apparently leave and enter the Digital World whenever he pleases. That sounds fishy to me. Maybe something or someone is controlling the Digimon.

I don't think Masaru's a normal human, as he displays incredible jumping power. Haha. Anyway, I think he has to punch a Digimon everytime to get the digi-soul because he's just inexperienced, whereas Tohma and Yoshino have been with DATS for quite a while now and can simply evolve their Digimon with relative ease. I suspect as the show goes on, Masaru should be able to do the same. Well, either that or Masaru has a deep dark secret we don't know about yet.

Raramon wasn't that useless in this episode for once. She actually defeated Numemon, not that it's anything to brag about XD

P.S. Gonna cut this short 'cause I'm busy watching Godzilla Final Wars as I'm typing this.

P.P.S. Oh, and you're welcome.

Bah...guess I'm gonna have to doublepost.

Episode 5 is out!! As before, here are the links for the Torrent and the Direct download.

I haven't seen it yet, so my comments will come later.

Update! The Direct Download link I gave led to an incomplete video file, so I've edited the post with another link instead.

More updates! I just saw it.

Downloading now (thanks again!). I'll try to watch it sometime later today and come back with my impressions.

I'm geting anoyed WTW is the only ones doing this...seriouly, the other dudes were much better.

Eh? I'm pretty sure it was mentioned in WTW that Savers has lots of groups subbing Savers, WPP being one of them. I can't remember their names though.

WtW's the only one that's doing it at the moment and trying to be current, I think. The rest of the groups might just be sitting around twiddling their thumbs.

That's practiacly WPP's Modous Operandoum.

WTW is not that bad, right? Anyway, I'm catching Savers on WTW's torrent too. And the only thing I don't like is Agumon, Greymon and maybe metal greymon and maybe wargreymon. I think the main digimon of Savers should be a new one instead of the old Agumon. Storylinewise not bad IMO.

I don't have any problems with WTW from what I've seen so far. WPP is good, but they're so slow. Kinda like what Toriyama's World did with Naruto >_>

I normally hate Agumon, but he's cool in Savers, so I don't mind him being in there anymore. He's not the same Agumon from Adventure.

Just now got around to seeing episode 5. Damn school. Anyway, here are my thoughts on the episode:

The Digital World was pretty boring. It seemed like it was nothing but empty fields, empty caves, and empty (but conveniently placed) crystal palaces. I'm really hoping they elaborate on it more in future episodes, especially when more of the action starts to take place there (assuming more of the action takes place there later in the series).

I was glad to see Masaru and Touma bond in this episode. This is the first episode since they've both been here that neither of them have annoyed me. If they keep this up though, I should definitely be able to stand Touma for the rest of the series.

As for Drimogemon/Digmon, he still didn't work as a bad guy for me. He wasn't as annoying in this episode, but he wasn't that much better either. I still didn't think he fought back, especially as Digmon. Considering what's on the line, you would think that he would fight with a little more desperation.

As for the next episode:

Here are my thoughts for episode 6:

The sub is already out??? You should've posted links if I didn't : /

I have to check it out. I will read your thoughts after I watch it.

What happened to the subs for this show? Shouldn't like the next two episodes have been released already? I hope something gets released soon, or I may have to start watching raws (if those are even being released).

WTW said episode 7 will be delayed. I'm fine waiting though. Too many other stuff to do.

Yeah, I read about episode 7 being delayed on their website, as they said they'll probably release it as a double episode with episode 8. But it's been so long that it seems like even episode 8 should have been released by now. I hope they aren't going to drop the series or something.

I think they're just too busy right now. I don't think they'll drop the series though. They seem dedicated to me.

Even if they stop doing it, there's still those other fansubbers. If only they can get their butt in gear though. >_>

EP 7 IS OUT!! WOOT!!!

Torrent
Direct Download

Wow, I didn't even know that episode 7 was out (I never even saw this thread when it was bumped), so I just saw it today.

It was an alright episode, though it was definitely one of those fun, cutesy episodes that don't really achieve anything, except for being fun and cute. Most of it was pretty prdecitable, and nothing out of the ordinary really happened. It was still fun to watch nonetheless.

Anyway, the next episode doesn't look like it will be all that great, and with the slow pace this series is coming out at, it's getting pretty hard for this show to keep my attention. It's not like I'm watching that many other series though, so I guess I'll keep watching whenever they actually release another episode.

I thought the entire episode was filler at first, but it does tell you a lot about Tohma's mysterious past. Apparently his childhood wasn't full of happiness, compared to other people, which brings out a whole new side to him.

I quite liked the episode. Tohma actually wasn't being annoying (and a jerk) for once, it had some funny parts, and there's a lot of funny expressions. The Digimon battle was blah though, but that's the only low point. It looks like the next episode's going to feature Yoshino in her 'starring' episode, much like this episode.

Double Post:
EPISODE 8 IS OUT! WHOOO!

Torrent

Sorry, no direct download yet.

Man, I hadn't even realized episode 8 was out (I guess I didn't see your post since it was automerged to your last one), but now I see that episode 9 is out as well. Well, at least that gives me two new episodes to watch. I'll post my thoughts on them once I get around to watching them.

I didn't even know ep 9 was out. Must get! Thanks for the heads up!

Oh, and Taco told me that they're now subbing Tamers. WOOT! That's my favourite season :D

I've only seen the dubbed version, but that's my favorite season as well. I guess I'll check that out just to see the original version and just because I haven't seen it in a while (I don't think I've watched it since it first aired back on FOX Kids).

I got all the dubbed eps burned on CD save one. It's crappy quality with a small viewing area, but its better than nothing >_> I've only seen a few episodes of the subbed version and I actually prefer the dub, as some of the funny jokes aren't in the original version. The voices for both versions are good, however, so I can't complain there.

Been watching the Raw episodes and I have to say it get more interesting. The beginning episodes just didn't interest me like the past 4 season did.

OMG! Ep 10 is ouuutt!!! Get it here!!!

I haven't watched episode 9 yet. I'm planning on watching 9 and 10 back to back. I've read on the WtW forum that they're gonna be speedy with the next batch of Savers episodes, so expect more eps to be released shortly! Maybe I should grab them all and save them for a Savers marathon. Tamers is only a side project, by the way.

Oh, and here's some music for you guys!

And here's a poster of the 1st DVD release! It's funny how they show the Ultimates on it when it only contains the first 2 or 3 episodes. Nonetheless, it's purty :)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...DVD1Poster.jpg

Thanks for the songs Wolf! Believer is my favorite song used in the show so far, so I'm glad to finally have a clean version to listen to (instead of having to go back and watch that part of anepisode again just to hear it).

So now that's three episodes I need to catch up on. While it's good to get them in batches like this, I hope they eventually catch up again so they can go back to releasing them weekly. But for now, I'll have to find a time to watch all of these.

It looks good,but not as good as digimon season 2

I love Believer too, and I just added that to my MP3 player last night :D

Currently, Savers may become my second favourite season, although that may change once I start seeing more episodes. It's hard to judge with just the first batch.

Sinner_Krono, what did you like about season 2? That didn't thrill me any :/

Ep 11 is out!!!!! Damn, they were right about being fast for the next several episodes. I think I'm gonna watch 9, 10 and 11 tomorrow back to back :D

UPDATE! Ep 12 is out!!!

Damn, I just finished downloading 8,9, and 10 the other day, so I haven't even had the time to watch them yet. Now 11 and 12 are out as well? Man, I have a lot of catching up to do (though to be fair, I wouldn't be in this situation if they had kept releasing them weekly like they had before).

You're gonna hate this, but episode 13 is out!

I've seen all eps up to 11 already. I didn't like ep 9 much. 10 and 11 are better. Ep 11 actually advances the plot. Gaomon actually has a personality now.

Update! I just saw eps 12 and 13. The main plot is finally picking up, and the two eps are good. Cool stuff. In ep 13,

Oh, and there's gonna be a movie this winter.

WtW might stop subbing because they said they don't have a translator. That's bad. Let's hope they find someone soon.

Noooooo...I hope not. I don't particularly like switching to another group. I like to keep things consistent.

I heard on the WTW forum that WPP isn't even subbing it until they finish their other Digi projects first, which basically means they'll never sub it : /

If the series is popular enough, I am sure that many fansub groups would be happy to give it a shot. I have yet to see this series, but I am sure is as good as its predisessors.

Nope, there's no ep 15 up yet, but here is the OST!!!

Last I hear, the Perfect evo track is on it, so that's cool. I haven't downloaded it yet though.

I've finally caught up!

Episodes 8-11 were practically all filler, and the only one that I really liked was ep 9, as it seemed more character driven than the other filler eps. But as a whole, they were all pretty boring.

Episodes 12-14 were awesome though! The plot is finally picking up (and they finally actually have an overarching plot, with a main villain and everything), as we're seeing more evolutions, better villains, and they're in the Digital World for more than a one time stint. I can't wait to see more episodes now!

Just saw WtW's site. The admin (maybe also the leader) quitted.

Episode 15 is out, but for some reason the torrent on Animesuki didn't work for me. I had to get this one on Mininova instead (it's listed as having no seeds or leechers, but it's downloading fine (better than fine, actually) for me), but it still seems like an officially released one from WtW. I'll try to check it out soon to make sure it's legit.

Hot damn! A new episode!!! It's a good thing I've been busy with Higurashi during the downtime or else I would've been banging my head against the wall right about now :D

It does look to be legit too, so I'm DLing it right now. Heh, 170kB/s XD

I finished downloading it (yeah, those speeds were pretty crazy), and even though I haven't fully watched it, I can tell that it's definitely the real thing. I should be able to watch the whole thing sometime soon this week.

And I hope that WtW goes on another releasing spree and releases a lot of episodes soon, because it has been a pretty long while between the last release and this one. i know they've been having some problems recently, but hopefully this release is a sign of something good.

I just watched the ep. SPOILERS! Don't be stupid and read it if you haven't seen it yet.



Random pointless info: Masaru's voice actor also voices a character in Higurashi, the show I was just talking about in my last post. I keep thinking of the other when I see them now :D

I finally watched ep 15 last night!

Can't say I had a personal connection like you did, Wolf, but I was still touched by this episode. I definitely think it had the most emotional impact of any episode so far, and overall, I found it to be a really well done way of doing a flashback sequence.

And yeah, MachGaogaman was pretty awesome. I actually can't decide whether I like him or RiseGreymon more, but their both pretty damn cool. That sucks for Lalamon though, as I doubt her Perfect form will ever be as cool as those two.

Anyway, now the wait for episode 16.

Yes, both RiseGreymon and MachGaogamon are awesome. I agree that the way the flashbacks were handled in ep 15 was well done. I dunno if I can watch it ever again though :(

However, I do have some sad news. WtW announced that ep 15 may be their last. Ugh. However, another group is currently subbing eps at ep 16 and up. I've never heard of this group before, so I've no idea how good they are. I'm already DLing ep 16.

16
17

Oh, and here's a new poster for the Savers movie:

http://www.digimonhimitsu.com/cute_n...e_poster_2.jpg

Hmm, I really liked WtW's subbing, but I'm not gonna let their stopping stop me from watching the series. If watching this new group's sub is the only way to watch it (other than raws, which would really suck), then I'll have to give them a chance. Who knows, maybe they'll be as good as (or better than) WtW. I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

I just watched ep 16 and the subbing wasn't bad at all actually. Not as good as WtW of course, but still better than I had hoped.

I think the show is finally starting to get some better eps now that they actually have a purpose. As usual, MachGaogamon and RiseGreymon rocked hard. I'll watch ep 17 tomorrow.

P.S. For a falcon, Falcomon looks like an owl.

P.P.S. The Ultimate evo theme (track 2 in the OST) is AWESOME.

Admit it. His stance and expression ROCKS. He still doesn't replace WereGarurumon as my fave, but he's coming close to it!
http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b8...gi/Snap264.jpg

UPDATE: Ijust saw ep 17! I didn't like it very much.



Eps 18 and 19 may be a double episode download. WAHOO! Can't wait to see it!

UPDATE: Not a double ep. 18 came out, but the tracker doesn't seem to be working. If you can DL it, care to upload it to sendspace.com? here it is

Ep 19 is out!!!

I'm DLing it now. The torrent for ep 18 still doesn't work for me, though, so PLEASE! Can someone upload the sub for me? : /

Oh, and a new ending theme will start appearing on ep 25.

Update: I found a direct DL for ep 18! Disregard my request.

I just read this thread and found out there is a new group. DLing 16 to 19 now.

http://image.www.rakuten.co.jp/edigi...073741615.jpeg

AHHHH!! A Digimon game with frickin' CEL-SHADING. There is a God! THANK YOU!!!!

The PS2 game is called Digimon Savers: Another Mission. Another plus is that the game is based on an actual TV show for once, meaning we're gonna have Masaru and company in it instead of a random no-name stupid kid like in the past RPGs!

Unfortunately, since it is a Digimon game, it's probably goign to suck like the other RPGs. I'd buy it anyway (the English version, of course) just for the cel-shading though. Even WereGarurumon is in it!

Ep 20 and Ep 21 are out. Go grab them.

Judging from ep 21, something's big's going to happen in the next several eps. The ending is very Tamers-isque :D

P.S How come only RockgamerXIII and I are posting opinions on the eps? Does nobody else want to help put life in this thread? :(

You know a thread is dead when you find you're the only one posting info for the past several days.

I regrettably inform you that Digimon Himitsu, the new fansubbers for Digimon Savers has CLOSED for absolutely no reason. I guess this means there will be no more subs unless some other group picks it up. Man, that sucks, especially when we now have an actual villain and a big war now from the last episode.

:(

Now for other news. I'm quite pleased that the villain in Savers, Mecurimon, isn't evil 'just because.' He doesn't even want a war too, and he's darn likable. It's a nice change of pace from past villains.

The true villain has been revealed and its not Mecurimon =P Who needs subs...lol

Sorry, but I never DL raws :D No sense watching something if you can't understand it.

I saw Saberleomon in ep 21/22, but I presume there's someone else in control.

Has any other news about this show come up (since I can never seem to find any)? I still have a couple of episodes I haven't caught up with yet, which I've been neglecting to watch since I don't see the point if I won't be able to see the rest.

I also wanted to ask you, Wolf, if you have another link to eps 21 and 22. I procrastinated in getting them the first time, and now the pages is gone! Any help with that would be appreciated.

I HAVE AWESOME NEWS!!!

Both LadyKitsune and DATS are going to continue to sub Savers!! OMG! LadyKitsune just put out ep 22 here (got awesome speeds with that!), and DATS just put out ep 16.

Unfortunately, I no longer have the links to ep 21. I'll upload it for you through Sendspace, Rock. Can't do it tonight though.

Also, here's the boxart to the Savers PS2 game:
http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b8...ion-boxart.jpg

Cool! I'll make sure to get this right now. Have you heard anything about how good their subbing is? I still like WtW's the best, but of course I'm not gonna complain when I have no other alternative.

By the way, I hate to trouble you even more, but it seems I don't have episode 20 either. Do you have any links for that one? And if not, could I trouble you to upload that one later as well?

Also, is there any info about that game? Like what kind of game it is (even though I'm assuming it's an RPG), or if it's coming to America?

Yeah, when you have no other alternative, any sub is good enough. The others aren't that bad.

Man, you drive a hard bargain, Rock. Fine, I'll upload eps 20 and 21.

I dunno much about the game myself, but you basically have to fight the Demon Lords (Beezlemon is one of them, COOL!) and how you treat the Digimon affects how they fight in battle. If you're treating them crappily, then their attacks won't do as much damage and stuff. It's an RPG, I think.

@Rock, hey, here's eps 20 and 21 like I said I would:

http://www.sendspace.com/file/43qv94 ep 20
http://www.sendspace.com/file/jt8915 ep 21

Enjoy and stuff

Thanks, I'm downloading them right now! Once I finish, that'll be six episodes I need to catch up on.

More good news!

Wada Kouji is returning!!!! He will sing a new OP in ep 30!!!

Now if only AiM will come back.

P.S. I don't like the new ED much. The current ED is better, and the scene is too.

Just finished watching 17 and 18.

Episode 17 was alright, but you can tell it was just the "Hey, the other two main Digimon evolved to perfect level so now let's just get the last one out of the way" type of episode. Yoshino's flashback to how she got Lalamon was kinda stupid, and most of the fights in this episode sucked. The only good thing about this episode was Lilamon, because she didn't suck like I thought she would. Granted, she's nowhere near as cool as the other two Perfect leve Digimon, but she's a big step up from Sunflowmon, and she actually looks kinda col in a girly-pink-flowery kinda way.

Episode 18 was great though. Lots of story was revealed, the fights were cool, and it had more Kamemon! It was great to see all three of them together in perfect form, even though they couldn't actually beat Mercurimon. Gwappamon wasn't the best looking Digimon, but he was pretty cool when he was in action.

I don't know much about the Japanese music (since I only watched the dubs up until I started watching Savers), so I never heard any of his other stuff. But you seem to be really excited about him, so I guess he's good! And I haven't heard the new ED yet (you said it doesn't start until episode 25, right?), so I can't really compare it to the current one (which really isn't even that great to me, so I don't see how they can make one even worse).

The eps get better as you watch more!

Oh, oh...you dunno the greatness that is Wada Kouji...man, how is that even possible? I must un-deprive you by sending you a gazillion songs from Kouji!

Wada Kouji is practically the singer for Digimon. He did the OPs for Adventure, 02, Tamers, and Frontier. He did the first ED for Frontier as well (the second ED was a duet with AiM, who also contributed EDs for all of the series up until Frontier.)

This isn't a Digimon video, sure, but it's the full version of Butter-Fly (the definitive Digimon song, in my opinion), so who cares?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8It4t9Lrf08

Kouji does sing other Digi related songs too, as well as his own non-Digi songs.

The Biggest Dreamer is the best Digi OP in my opinion, and I'm in fact listening to it right now. Here is the full song for your amusement. It's the OP to Tamers. I am on the opinion that the third season has the best songs/BGM.

Ep 23 is out!! Grab it while it's hot!!! I can't seem to use the URL code right, so here is the full link:
http://ladyk.fobby.net/torrent.php?name=[LadyK]%20Digimon%20Savers%20Episode%2023%20[82CD23A9].avi

I still say Falcomon looks like an owl.

Bah! I can't let this thread DIE OUT.

After what seemed like an age, DATS has finally released episode 24! I'm grabbing it right now! Can't wait to see it!

DATS just released episode 25. PM me and I'll give you the link so you can post it ... i don't have enough posts to post the link.

If no one here has been watching the RAWs then here are the new Intro and endings (watch at your own risk):
2nd Intro
2nd Ending

Ep 25 is here.

Meh, I dunno if I should be posting here anymore. There's not much interest in Digimon in GFF : / This thread is proof enough.

Ep 25 spoiler

Ep 26 is out! Get it here

Well, I guess you can post links now, Azuraus, and wow, I just checked the page several minutes ago and saw no new release. Thanks for the heads up! DLing now.

P.S. What's your favourite Digimon?

I've been checking the site like every hour XD! (couldn't wait)

And I would have to say my favorite digimon is Growlmon.

Growlmon! I love Guilmon and evos. He's my favourite Rookie.

My fave Digimon of all is WereGarurumon, with AeroVeedramon as fave Digimon that has never appeared in the show. There's a gazillion other Digimon I like too.

I finally decide to post in this thread.

I've managed to catch up with the series to the point where it's been subbed. Probably one of my favorite Digimon seasons of all time. And really...

Savers is my second fave season. Sorry, but I don't think anything can ever top Tamers :3

And yes, we both agree on your spoiler.

I'm gonna be requesting some Savers eps soon though. I hope you guys can help me.

Odd. I never really liked the Tamers season... Probably because I never watched enough episodes, but either way, I still prefer this one over all of them.

Well, that would be a good reason why you wouldn't like it as much. It definitely has to be watched in order if you haven't done so, and it's a show that basically gets a whole lot better the further you watch.

In my opinion, Tamers is the best 'monster' anime. It has pretty much everything you could possibly want: action, humour, drama, angst, character development, music, blah blah blah.

I suppose. Since there's some downtime between the amount of episodes being subbed, i'm probably gonna back track on some seasons.

YAY Ep 27 is finally out!

Also does anyone play Digimon World DS?

Man I'm behind. I still need to watch eps 23-27. I haven't really been in the mood for anime lately, though.

And yes I've been playing Digimon World DS, and I know for sure that Wolf has been as well (and if I'm not mistaken, Chaotic has also been playing it).

I won Digimon World DS yesterday, but I still want to get all the Digimon I like. That's going to take a while.

P.S. Can someone PLEASE upload the earlier episodes for me? My files got corrupted and I want to burn them for my collection. I made a thread about it in Video Requests. Help me, Digimon fans! You're my only hope!

Hey episode 28 is released!

I just became a gold tamer. When I become Tamer King anyone want to battle?

Thanks for the link!

And sorry, but I don't think you can battle online, only over local wireless with another person who has the game. I'm still at Silver rank myself, so I'd probably get creamed anyway.

What was Nintendo thinking? Not allowing online battles...dang. Oh well thanx for telling me that.

No problem.

They are making a sequel though, so maybe they'll be smart enough to put it in this time. Unforunately, it's not even coming out in Japan until March, so it probably won't come out here until the end of next year if not later.

Aww, it doesn't look like anyone here can give me the early Savers eps. So much for keeping them for the future :(

And no, you can't battle online. Since Nintendo never made Digimon Story, I don't think they should be held responsible for not including online. It could have been Bandai's decision for that. However, we can match online. Once I buff up my Digimon, I can get you a Veemon. You can only get that through matching.

I can't wait for the sequel. I want AeroVeedramon :(

Freelance this should help!
This site has a list of all the torrents for Digimon Savers. Its also where I go to see if a new episode has been released.

Does it have torrents for the older eps though? WtW's torrents are no longer working, and I need those. I can't check that page now while I'm at work.

Yea it has episodes 1-28. Eps 1-15 are by WtW, and I just checked one of them and its downloading fine, so the site should work for you!

Yay! They work! You rock!!! Thanks a lot, good person!

Don't think I ever asked you what's your fave Digimon season, eh?

Oh hey, I just watched ep 28.

Freelance my favorite Digimon Season is Tamers.

Late as hell, but yeah, I have Digimon World DS also. I'm already Tamer King and slowly beating all the quests. Anyway, My team is pretty decent, i've been degenerating alot and stuck with a pretty stable team. They're all around the high 70s. I still have to work on my back up though.

<_<

And damn, I can't turn to crunchyroll for Digimon Savers anymore. <_< Apparently someone said it was licensed and removed everything. Now they say it's unlicensed or whatever.

It's not licensed. It's still being subbed. The last ep is 28. Follow the link
Azuraus posted.

Yeah, I figured that after DATS was still subbing. I have to turn to YouTube now. <_<

Dammit, it seems I always hear the news before work, which means a 10 hour wait before I can actually watch it! Boooo!

Thanks though!

Saw Ep 29 two days ago.

I was checking to see if a new episode was released and there wasn't :(, but The Digimon Savers Movie Trailer was released.

The movie is pretty bizarre. It's the Digimon now that take center stage while they're looking for their partners. I hope it's a better movie than the horrid Frontier one.

P.S. I am using that same avatar in another message board. The scene was awesome.

Additional Spam:
A ha! I finally beat Azuraus! Ep 30 is out!!

I doubt I'd get any help, but I'm having a lot of trouble grabbing episode 19. The torrent either goes very very slow, or not at all. I assume nobody can just upload it for me, eh?

Update: Oh, it jumped from 50% to 80% today, so I may not need help after all. It's stalling right now though. Stupid thing.

Dang Freelance you beat me...
I love the new theme song and the 2nd Movie trailer was released today.

Sorry :D

I have to listen to the theme song several times before deciding whether it's better than the first one, but oooo, the new animation is awesome. I hope someone makes a textless video of it sometime.

I wish the movie trailers would actually talk about the movie than the promotions for it.

OMG DATS is on a roll!!! Episode 31 is out!! Dunno why they're releasing them so fast recently, but I'm not complaining!

Sheesh, I guess I should really catch up now since they're actually releasing them at a regular rate now. I'm still back on episode 23. :(

Wow! They are releasing the episodes quite fast. Eps 32 is now out!

AHHH! I just watched ep 31 yesterday and now they have 32 out?! Yay yay! They're sure going on overdrive.

P.S. Ep 31 was funny! I have an animated GIF of the water scene :D Too bad it's over 1MB, otherwise I'd use it here.

I'm liking this! A new episode everyday. Heres the link for Ep. 33

Damn! Does DATS have too much free time or what? :D Oh well, I am not complaining! Can't wait to watch it!

P.S. Ep 32 was funny as well!

YAY first to notice that Ep 34 is out!

I'm loving the humor in the past few eps so far, while still managing to maintain the dark feel of the show. I'm anxiously awaiting BanchouLeomon's return. He's awesome.

I wonder if Savers will have around 50 eps in total like the past seasons.

I didn't even see when Ep. 34 came out. :(

I'm slowly starting to catch back up (well, I watched one episode anyway), and since things have seemingly slowed back down to normal, hopefully I'll be fully caught up in a week or so.

Hey, is anyone reading that manga, Digimon Next? I just started reading it yesterday and it has a lot of similiarities to Savers.

It stars a goggle boy with an Agumon partner, and there are other tamers with other Savers Digimon like Gaomon and Peckmon for partners. Also, in a later chapter, Agumon suddenly gets those straps on his arms when he never had any before. He even evolves to GeoGreymon at one point. I presume the show came first, and the manga is influenced by it, hence the straps.

The artwork is pretty cool, and the Gaomon in Next has a more active personality than the one in Savers. Granted, he starts saying more stuff in later eps, but still, the only thing he ever said at the beginning was "Yes, master."

I'm bored, so here is a list of my fave whatevers. Sorry, no runner-ups, unless you want me to.

Season: Tamers
Digimon: WereGarurumon
Music: Tamers
Opening song: The Biggest Dreamer
Evolution song: Believer
Ending song: I really don't know...I don't like them as much as the OPs.
Goggle boy: Takato
Goggle boy's Digimon: Guilmon
Fave misc Digimon: Leomon and BanchouLeomon

Atlast! Episode 35! Seemed like it took forever since they were releasing them everyday. Hope they start to sub them fast again.

*gives up on trying to spark a Digimon conversation*

Yet again, another sub comes out while I am at work. Joy! Gives me something to look forward to tonight though.

Not in anyway Digimon related, but I want this:
http://chibigojitoys.com/items/SDccAngilas.jpg
So cute!

Freelance don't give up! Can you give me the link to the site where I can read Digimon Next? It sounds interesting and something to do/talk about while waiting for the next episode of Savers.

The site is here. I'm digging the manga already, and Gaomon is way better than his Savers appearance. I hate him in Savers now.

Thanx Freelance I'll start reading it tonight or tomorrow, Kinda of busy at the moment. XP. And I agree with you I'm starting to hate Gaomon right now too.

Um, you really should put that in spoiler tags, Az. Rock hasn't even seen the latest episodes yet. If you don't know how to do it, type your text in between <spoiler> and </spoiler>. Just replace the <>'s with []'s.

Dymn i did miss a trick due to my working at uni...

Have they got a batch torrent up for any of the eppisodes or?

No batch torrent yet, but all episodes can be found here.

Thanx Freelance i didn't know how to put things in a spoiler.

Just want to make sure I'm up to date: Ep 35 was the last one released, correct? I still need to watch ep 24 and up, but I wanted to make sure I have all of them just in case I go on some mass watchng spree (doubtful, though I have started watching an episode of this show and One Piece again every week or so).

Ehhh, the reason I asked for a batch was cause most of the eps I've been meenign to see are dead torrents.

I had the same problem too, Conan, with the earlier eps, but keep trying. They go on and off pretty much. I was able to get all eps recently from those same torrents, and I thought they were dead too.

Yes, ep 35 is the last release so far. Should be more coming this week.

Episode 36 is out!

Grr! and I still haven't had a chance to start reading Digimon Next yet. Well hopefully I can start reading it soon...


Just got done watching episode 36

Just saw ep 36!




Thoughts on ep 37 preview:

Ugh, i've fallen so behind on the episodes... T_T

I barely have any time to catch up on them... I still have yet to watch all of 31, but at least this means during a long weekend break, I could watch them all in one stint.

Ep 37 is out!!!! Yay!!

I hope this series goes longer than 50 odd eps. I don't see all this getting resolved anytime soon, what with all the new characters coming in.

You know, I've been a mild fan of the Digital Monsters series ever since they came stateside. My favorite has been Tamers and the Savers season looks very promising. I've recently been downloading all the episodes of Savers so far, except for one episode (No. 13 from WtW) which I can't complete ever since their seeds have gone down. I'm eventually going to watch them in blocks once I have an ample amount of free time, but my inability to complete 13 (which hangs at around 80-something percent) is a bit annoying.

Hopefully the seeds would go back online. Otherwise, can anyone procure a temporary seed of episode 13 from WtW?

Savers is currently in episde 43, and i must say the progression is rather rapid. Also i believe the season is indeed planned for 50 episodes. I'll post as soon as i figure out how to get the spoiler thing working >_>

Spoilers inc

Epi. 38

Tamers is my fave too, and I like Savers. The first several episodes may seem like filler central which you may not like, but it does pick up a lot after that. The current subbed eps are great.

If you can't get ep 13, I'll try uploading it for you.

Why must you guys make me doublepost?

Ep 37 spoilers!



@Dullenplain: I got ep 13 uploaded for you. Get it here

Can't wait for ep 38!

I've been gone for a while XD I started reading a little bit of Digimon Next and I like it!

Also Ep. 38 is out!

Yeah, I like Digimon Next too ^^ Gaomon is better there than in Savers.

Oh, and while you were all rejoicing about ep 38, Ep 39 arrived!

I'll most likely be watching them tomorrow. Got a Death Note marathon tonight :3

Holy Crap Ep 39 already! I wasn't expecting that! Dang I should goto to sleep soon but I wanna watch Ep 39!

I saw both episodes last night, and...

Spoilers for both!

WOOT! XD episode 40 is out!



Just got done watching ep 40

Nice avatar FreeLance.

I finally found back my old Digivice a few days ago and I just got the batteries for it! So far I have a Koromon, I'm hoping to raise a Metal Greymon!

Episode 45

I'm kinda pissed :><: a couple of hours after my Koromon digivolved to a Agumon, my digivice freezes! My reset button doesn't work either! GRRRR! Also i found out to get a Metal Greymon I have to have Victory win rate of 80% or more...and since I know no one with a digivice I can't get a Metal Greymon :( . Oh well I'm gunna try to get a Greymon one more time and if it freezes again, i'm done raising digimon~

Also I hope the next episode comes out soon!

Dammit, david0925, don't spoil future, unsubbed eps! If you must do so, then mention the episode number that you are spoiling. I clicked on it thinking you were spoiling ep 40 like the last several posts, but nope! Now I've been spoiled! Luckily I only saw the first line before I realized >_>

Azuraus, that sucks about your Digivice. I'm sure it must be old, so maybe it malfunctioned? I never had any digivice :(

My sister had like four of those things, and she hardly ever let me play with even one of them. I'm not even sure if she has them anymore, though.

Added in the episode number, apologies about that

I had a bizarre dream last night!! I was in a store/warehouse place and they had lots of Digimon figures and keychains, but they were not the same Digimon I know. It looked like they went through a makeover! BlackWarGreymon, for instance, looked like a more traditional dragon in my dream. I also saw vividly saw a Growlmon, and he was different looking too. They were not X versions. Then I woke up.

Atlast! Episode 41! XviD version and h264 version. Also what the difference between the versions? I've never bothered downloading the h264 version.

Also, Interesting Dream Freelance, so were you saying they kinda of looked more "realistic".

h264 is supposed to be a better quality version of the other, but XviD is fine with me.

Nope, not realistic at all. It's hard to explain exactly what they look like. They're still cartoony, but with a totally different look.

Still haven't seen ep 41 yet. I will tonight or tomorrow.

Hey, it's time for an update, fellow Tamers. I got good news and bad news. I'll get the bad news out first so the good news won't make the bad news sound so bad. Uh, yeah...

I just got word that Savers will stop at ep 48, which makes it the shortest Digimon season ever. It's only a few eps short from Frontier. Dammit! Even worse, there's no news of any 6th season, so watch the remaining eps with love because that's all you're going to be getting for a long while *sob!*

That's not all the bad news either. The Savers movie clocks in at 20 minutes, thus making it the shortest Digimon movie ever. What? Why are they shortening everything Savers related? There's not even as much CDs compared to the other seasons too. The music, characters, etc, are a hell lot better than Frontier *sob!*

Now for the good news.

Savers will get character songs finally. YAY! Confirmed are solo performances by Masaru, Agumon, Tohma, Gaomon and BanchoLeomon (:D), a duet with Ikuto and Falcomon, plus a song with all of them and both OPs and EDs. Oddly, Yoshino and Raramon don't get songs, which gets a big WTF from me. I just hope Agumon sings better than the Adventures Agumon. Ye gads, he made my ears bleed >_>

Here's the craptastic cover! Why Yoshino is on it when she doesn't get a song is anyone's guess.

http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/8...4303ba5ko4.jpg

To end this post, I will miss the gang once ep 48 ends :(

UPDATE: Don't want to triple post, so here is Episode 42!!!!

I don't know if I should be happy or sad that episode 42 is out

That really sucks, only 6 more episodes T_T and then we all split up -sigh- I hope season 6 is just as good, if not better.

Well, we should at least be grateful that Savers came out at all. Back when Frontier ended, I thought for sure that was the end of Digimon, so imagine my complete surprise when Savers appeared. Actually, I'm sort of glad they're not thinking of having endless seasons. I don't want it to end up like Pokémon. That series ended up driving itself into the ground, with the same damn plot every season and the same characters over and over. No originality whatsoever. Ugh.

Considering the fact Savers did better ratings-wise than Frontier, there's still hope for a 6th season, even if nothing has been announced.

I stopped caring for digimon after the second series came out. Then after that it was like yugioh/ digimon with 5 year old kids. Not my game.

You do realize that it only happened in the third season, right? Oh, and the fact that once the Digimon evolved to Champions and up, they stopped the cards right? The cards gave the Rookies new skills, but once they evolved, they didn't need the cards anymore.

The third season was the best in the series too.

Episode 43 is out!

Well Freelance we will have to hang out on the forums until the movie is out, and we can stay here seeing if Season 6 is ever released.

I never really got into the cards, I have a few decks, but I never understood the card game. I was too lazy to learn XP.

Episode 44 is out. DATS seem to be on hyper mode.

Noooo, I'm pretty sure what SephirothStrife meant was the card slashing theme in Tamers. I assumed he only saw a few episodes and didn't realize the Tamers stopped using the cards when the Digimon could evolved.

As for the card game, I have quite a collection too, but I never played the game. I read the instructions, but I couldn't understand any of it. I'll stick to YGO. It's much easier to learn.

I will watch eps 41, 42 and 43 back to back tonight. I'll post comments afterwards. In the meantime, I got a mess of pics for you to look at. They're the complete evolution line of Coronamon and Lunamon, the two starring Digimon in the upcoming Digimon Story 2 DS games.

Their lines go like this:

Sunmon -> Coronamon -> Firamon -> Flaremon -> Apollomon
Moonmon -> Lunamon -> Rekisumon -> Crescemon -> Dianamon

Their Mega forms are named after the Greek gods, although one is a Goddess. They are twin brother and sister.

Baby, Rookie and Champion forms:
http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b8..._dsstory2b.jpg

Ultimate forms:
http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b8..._dsstory2a.jpg

Mega forms:
http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b8...f/Dianamon.jpghttp://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b8.../Apollomon.jpg

I am really digging Coronamon's evolution line. I normally don't care for lion type characters, but Digimon always seem to come up with some wicked lion designs. Leomon and BanchouLeomon are among some of my favourite monsters. Apollomon reminds me of Agunimon, only much better.

Lunamon's evos are okay, I guess. I'm not really fond of fairy humanoid types. I suppose they're trying to base the line on Antylamon, and I prefer Antylamon to Lunamon's line.

P.S. The Savers movie hasn't appeared yet on DVD.

P.P.S. Here's an image of a brand new Rookie dragon Digimon, which gives some hope of a 6th season or a new manga at least. I think Dracomon could be the very first dragon Rookie with wings. Maybe finally we can get an official Rookie form of Airdramon?

Argh...why didn't someone post? >_>

Oh good, posts got merged.

Anyway, I saw eps 41-43 tonight.

41 spoilers!


42 spoilers!


43 spoilers!

Grrr, you beat me to posting the new episode >.<.

YAY for digimon world DS 2, I still need to become Tamer king in the first one >.> I haven't had any time to play it. Lets hope this one allows online battles with a Wifi connection, I wanna battle you Freelance. Also, those are some pretty cool new digimon. And I agree with you Freelance I never really liked Fairy-humanoid digmon much either~

^^ We can only hope that rookie dragon digimon is a partner of one of the 6th season tamers. I really hope there is gunna be a 6th season, even if its a manga.

Episode 45 is out!

Even if we can't battle in Digimon DS, we can still trade. That's the only way you can get certain Digimon, like Veemon. If you don't have him yet, I can help you with that. It's cool that you can get Imperialdramon Dragon mode in this game. In the other games, you can only get Fighter mode.

I love pretty much all dragon Digimon. They always have such cool designs, compared to Pokémon. Ugh.

If I ever hear any news about any new season or manga, I'll be sure to post it here!

P.S. I don't see how they can cram everything in a mere four episodes. I hope they don't rush it, but chances are they probably will :(

And so is episode 46!



Episode 45 and 46


That would be great Freelance I don't have Veemon yet. I'm about to fight Chronomon atleast i think thats his name, I need to train a bit more, I got my ass kicked when i went up against him last time. Let me know when you want to trade. I'm in central time by the way.

Episode 47 is out! I guess DATS is going all out since the series is at a close. Only one more ep left *sob!*

Just let me know whenever you want to trade. I'm in EST, and I work from 11-7pm, so I won't be home til like, past 8.

After breaking degenerating a DotFalcomon, I decided to keep him to boost the experience. He's around, but he just isn't used as much as I did before.

I'll post my team soon.

9 Pm Your time, 10 PM my time on Tuesday sound good? And do you have MSN, so we can talk while we trade , I never done it before, so i'll be confused. If not I guess we can talk through the forums or something.

Looks like Chaotic and I have been playing Digi DS a lot. My team would technically be around and above his levels now if I hadn't done tons of degenerating to get better stats.

That sounds good. Since we'll be probably be spamming if we talk on the forum, I suggest we make a post each and then just edit that post whenever we want to say something. Trading is easy, so I'll guide you through it.

Oh, and note that my connection can be bad while using the DS online, so hopefully we won't get into any snags while doing this.

I have to degenerate my MachGaogamon again, it's gonna max out it's aptitude at 91. So I gotta go one more round with him to start maxing everything...

I don't really wanna go anywhere else with MetalGarurumon since he's powerful enough to just keep around. I dunno what else to do with WarGreymon though... :|

I need to keep a set team though. T_T

I haven't played Digimon world DS for a few months now, I've been busy playing my Wii. I think I'll get back into it now, since I'm very close to beating it.

Also Dats is being quite evil to us, I swear they're doing this on purpose. Holding out on us with the last episode >.> I hope they release it soon!

Also, any particular Digimon you want for the Veemon? You most likely have anything that I have, but you never know. And I don't know If I will be able to trade tonight, The Nintendo Wifi connector is being difficult again. I'll see if I can get it to work.

I didn't like the series at first.

Masura's courage and hardheadedness just made everything move so much quicker. I loved the spiritual evolution everyone went through. It was inspiring.

I thought everything would be done by the time I watched the whole thing through. I get all the way up to 48 and find out I have to wait for a sub. It broke my consistent chain. :(

It's about time we had an update in this thread. First off, Savers has been licensed, but I'm sure you all know that by now.

Also, the Savers movie has been released on DVD. As far as I can see, no sub has been released yet, although you can DL the raw. I never DL the raws, so I will wait for the sub.

The DVD came with textless openings and endings for all four songs (hooray), so here are the DVD rips for them. Enjoy!

Gouing! Going! My Soul!!
Hirari
One Star
Nagareboshi

When does the movie take place in relation to the series? Unless it takes place after the series, I doubt it has anything important to the story in it, so I doubt it's very good. And has anybody indicated that they are going to sub it?

As for the OP/EDs, I wasn't really a big fan of any of them, especially not of any of the animation that went along with them. The only song I liked enough to download was Believer, which wasn't even an OP/ED.

The story has no connection to the anime, as far as I know. I could be wrong though. I just hope it's better than Frontier, which was easily the worst Digi movie. Sadly, it's only 24 or so minutes, so we might as well call it a typical episode.

Oh, and good news. Digimon World DS 2 (apparently going to be named to Dusk and Dawn here) will have online battles! At least, the Japanese version does. No word yet for the English version. You cannot have random battles, only through friend codes. It'd a refreshing change of pace to fight using monsters that aren't Pokémon for once, and with more attacks. I heard that the battles will be faster-paced than the first time, which is a good thing. Scanning each enemy Digimon in every battle does get tedious. I'm going to be getting Dawn. I assume that's what the English version of Sunburst is.

24 minutes of non-story related material? :( I'll probably pass even if it does get subbed.

That's awesome news about World DS 2 though! About the only thing that would make it even better now was if you could bring over your Digimon from the first game into this one, but that's doubtful (that would have at least given me some incentive to go finish the first game, which I may still do one of these days). So yay for all four people who will end up getting the game here being able to battle each other!

And for the record, I'm getting Dusk, just because it sounds cooler.

Sorry, but you can't transfer between games. Too bad...I would've liked to see my team in battle, most of which are made up of some badass dragons.

I'm slightly miffed that the requirement to get AeroVeedramon in the sequel is pretty high (get 40,000 beast or dragon exp). This is the second time they did that for my favourite Digimon >_> On the bright side, Veemon is now obtainable in the wild.

Also, the game features the rest of the missing evolutions from Savers. ShineGreymon, MirageGaogamon, Rosemon, Duskmon, etc, are all available, plus lots of new Digimon that wasn't in the first game. There's a list floating around somewhere which I can post here if you want.

Jogressing is a new feature in the sequel too. For the dub fans, it's DNA Digivolution here. You mix two Digimon to get a brand new Digimon.

Oh, and Savers characters return, including a brand new face...

Sorry for the double post, but I have more Digimon World DS 2 news which you may find useful. I found pics of all the available starter packs for both versions. Choose your team wisely....or you can just choose the one with more of your favourite Digimon in it.

I'm going with the Growlmon/MegaSeadramon combo ^_^

Also, I'm totally stoked for some new additions to the game which were not in the original, two of which are some of my favourite Digimon:

http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b8...oveedramon.gif
http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b8...ilinmonani.gif

Hoping to add them to my future team ^_^

I think we should change the thread title to General Digimon or something. Savers isn't the only thing we talk about in here.

Hmm, I'll probably get the SkullGreymon/BlackWereGarurumon combo. All the other ones look kinda crappy. ;_;

Don't know about a thread title change. We'd probably have to PM a mod or something. But yeah, 'Digimon General Discussion Thread' or something would probably be good.

Haha yeah, the Dusk Starters aren't very good compared to Dawn, in my opinion, but you don't have to use them. There's tons of other Digimon in this game.

And yes, only a mod can change thread titles.

Personally, I don't find the Dawn starters to be that much better (the only ones I would use is the RiseGreymon/Angewomon combo). :( But I guess that's why they're starters.

:(

What Digimon do you like then? :3

I do agree that the Starters for both games aren't anything to write home about though, although I do like one starter from each Dawn pack while the other one sucks, whereas I don't like any except for BlackWereGarurumon in Dusk. If I was getting that game, I'd be getting that pack too.

Oh, and thanks to Brady, the title of this thread has been changed, yay! I wonder where Azarus went. He usually posts here. I suppose he doesn't know GFF is back up. We need to liven things up! I'll get in touch with him.

Well, I like at least one of the starters from every combo in Dusk, except the one I chose in which I like both. The only ones I like at all in Dusk are the ones I would have chose (RiseGreymon and Angewomon).

And yeah, Azuraus is one of the people I was referring to when I said all four people here would be able to battle online. The other one I was referring to was Chaotic.

And yay for the thread title change!

Aw... T_T

I like the Dawn Exclusive, but Dusk has MachGaogamon... T_T

Now i'm officially torn. T_T

No worries! We can do online matching as well, just like in the first game. Unfortunately, there's still no online trading option. You have to connect with someone locally.

I'm getting Dawn and Rocky's getting Dusk, so there shouldn't be a problem getting the exclusives.

Are the starters game exclusive as well? I mean, lets say Chaotic does get Dawn, just because he can't get MachGaogamon as a starter, does that mean he won't be able to get it later in the game (without matching or trading)?

There are exclusives, but I don't know the full list. I don't think all the starters are exclusive.

Guess I'm the only one keeping this thread alive!

Screenshots for the Digital Squad in English has been released!

http://www.db-destiny.net/event01_03.jpg
HELLO Marcus!

http://www.db-destiny.net/battle_01.jpg
Don't ask me why there's a gazillion Sharp Claws and Pepper Breaths.

I'm still not sure if I'll get the game. I won't be too thrilled with the name changes and dubbed voices as I'm already too used to the JPN names/voices already. Also, I've watched some battle gameplay vids in the past and they weren't very exciting. There's a pause after every single command, which can get annoying after a awhile. I also spend way more time with my handhelds than with my consoles too. I find more fun games on the handhelds nowadays.

Of course, I'm definitely getting the DS sequel. The online mode will be uber sweet. Battle with Digimon = awesome. I'm SOOO gonna get a Megidramon.

Ah, here I am again with more news!! The Digimon Savers movie has been released by WPP!

Get it here!
Keep in mind it's in MKV extension.

Holy crap!! I'm getting over 128kb/s! Get it while it's hot!

Update: Whoo! Got it so quick!! Gonna watch tomorrow!

I might have asked you this already, but does the movie take place between any particular episodes of the series? I like to watch things in order, so I'd want to watch this as close as possible to when it's supposed to take place.

And yeah, that PS2 game doesn't look very good. I think I'll pass for now...

Well, ShineGreymon Burst Mode is in it, so I assume it takes place after the series in some unforeseen future.

I just saw the movie! It's not bad, but it's damn short and it's a one man Masaru show again. There's some cruddy animation here and there too.. However, the Rookie fights are pretty kick-ass compared to the series and Lalamon is actually useful.

Screengrabs! Taking pics with MKV videos is hard! Can't wait til an AVI version comes out so I can take more grabs.

I wasn't paying too much attention when I watched (I was distracted), so I am going to watch it again sometime.

Update: I just found out that the ending has a blooper reel! I didn't even watch the credits! I will check it out tonight!

Damn, the Digi news just keeps on coming!

The Digimon Savers Best Hits has been released! Get it here!

It contains image songs and the OP/EDs. Here's the tracklist:

01. Gou'ing! Going! My Soul!
Vocal: Dynamite SHU
02. Beater!
Vocal: Daimon Masaru (Hoshi Souichirou)
03. Aah, Tamagoyaki (Oh Fried Eggs)
Vocal: Agumon (Matsuno Taiki)
04. One Star
Vocal: Itou Yousuke
05. Friendship!!
Vocal: Ikuto & Falcomon (Kugimiya Rie & Kojiro Chie)
06. Believer
Vocal: IKUO
07. Cool Running
Vocal: Tohma H. Norstein (Nojima Hirofumi)
08. Itsumademo Issho ni (Always With You)

Vocal: Daimon Masaru (Hoshi Souichirou), Agumon (Matsuno Taiki), Tohma H. Norstein (Nojima Hirofumi) & Gaomon (Nakai Kazuya)
12. Ryuusei

Just like pretty much every other Digimon CD, this one is pretty good! There isn't a single song I don't like in it. Agumon's solo isn't as horrible sounding as Tai's Agumon, thank gawd, and it's cute! TEAM is quite upbeat! Enjoy!

Eh, I don't really care for the music that much, but I might check it out. The only song that I really like from all the eps that I've seen so far is Believer (which is like my favorite Digimon song ever), but I already have that though.

Foo! Digimon music rocks my socks. I have over 200 songs and only a few of them suck.

I don't think the ones I have listened to suck, I just don't like most of them enough to listen to them outside the show.

I rewatched the movie credits again and saw the blooper reel! It's funny and cute! Make sure you guys watch it!

Um, nothing else to talk about...for now...

Additional Spam:
Ah someone posted translations of the songs! Check them out here!

The lyrics for Beater!, Aah, Tamagoyaki and TEAM are hilarious!
"You and your friend eggs!" XD

Not that anyone cares, but DATS has released their Savers movie sub in AVI format. Get it here. Getting awesome speeds (over 260kB/s) so grab it while it's hot. Now I can make decent screengrabs.

Update: I finished DLing. Whee!

Digimon World Dusk/Dawn are set to come out Sept 18th, which is days way! Great stuff, wot?

Still getting Dawn, and I'm looking forward to battling the few of you who will be getting it! You better get it, Chaotic :D I know for a fact that Rocky and I will be getting it.

I saw some vids online and at the end of the game, the team from Digimon Savers (Including Ikuto this time. Whoo!) and Digimon NEXT appear to battle you! Awesome! I don't know if it's part of the game or optional. I was very surprised to see guys from Digimon NEXT in it.

Oh, and I found Digimon Savers wallpaper at the official American website at Toei Animation! Here it is. I've never been able to find any decent Digimon wallpaper before, so I'm quite happy to have found something good :3

I've been putting Savers eps on my PSP to watch during bus rides :D

Update: I checked out that website some more and apparently they're using Masaru and Yoshino in their character profiles.

I know, I know. But I probably won't be able to get it this month since I'm short on cash. <_<

I am looking forward to the game though. :><:

Can't wait.

Ah I getcha. If you're going back to school, then I understand. Rocky just spent tons on books alone. Ouch.

In the meantime, take a gander at the exclusive Digimon in each version for you to decide what you want:

Dawn:

Sunmon
Coronamon
Firamon
Flaremon
Apollomon
Kudamon
Leppamon
Qilinmon
Sleipmon
Gigimon
Guilmon
Growmon
Megidramon
Dukemon
Dukemon Crimson Mode
Chicomon
Imperialdramon Dragon Mode
Imperialdramon Fighter Mode
Imperialdramon Paladin Mode
Airdramon
Goddramon
ShineGreymon Burst Mode
DotAgumon
Dot ShineGreymon




Dusk:

Moonmon
Lunamon
Lekismon
Crescemon
Dianamon
Pandamon
BantyoLeomon
Beelzebumon Blast Mode
Tsumemon
Keramon
Chrysalimon
Argomon Perfect and Ultimate
Diablomon
ChaosDukemon
Armagemon
Piemon
Apocalymon
Kuramon
Khimeramon
Milleniumon
Moon Milleniumon
Zeed Milleniumon SkullGreymon
Tsuchidarumon
DotFalcomon
DotMirageGaogamon

I'm getting Dawn for the Guilmon line (especially Megidramon), Kudamon's line and Imperialdramon Dragon Mode (I've never seen this Digimon playable before!) I will need to match with the other version to get BanchouLeomon. I'm not much of a villain fan, so I don't want much exclusives in Dusk.

I'm definitely still getting this when it comes out (I believe it's the only game coming out in Sept. that I want, as the real wallet-rape doesn't begin until October), but I don't want to play it until I beat the first one, which means I need to hurry up and finish that one.

And I can't wait for the English version of Savers to come on. If the name changes alone aren't enough lol, some of the voice actors they have playing them are just...out there (Crispin Freeman playing Touma, wtf? Because I'm sure a guy known for playing darker, older characters will be good at playing a 14-year-old boy).

This game and Sims 2: Bon Voyage are the only two games (although one's just an expansion) I want in September, so I'm sure I'll be able to get it on launch. Can't wait.

Only YTV airs Digimon here, but I don't know if they'll air the dub. I don't think they are still airing the older seasons. I like how they managed to switch from Digital Accident Tactics Squad to DATa Squad to keep it as DATS. I guess they wanted to shorten it to make it easier for the kids to remember.

Ikuto's last name is apparently Crier (Ikuto Crier, XD), and I'm going to be thinking of a certain green dinosaur everytime they say Yoshino's new dub name :D The VA for Genis (Colleen O'Shaughnessey) from Tales of Symphonia is voicing her, so I'm not looking forward to that, I can tell you! Takato's VA is voicing Agumon, so who knows what he's going to sound like! It'd be so cool if he'd still use 'Aniki 'for the dub, but I very much doubt that. It'd probably change to 'Boss' or even 'Marcus.' That doesn't sound as cute.

Update: Apparently Wiki has been updated to include Ikuto's dub name. Keenan Crier! That's really different from the original name. I wonder how the last name's going to be pronounced. Is it going to be 'Cry-er' or 'Creer'?

Long needed update?

Finally got the game myself and I've indulged about 8 hours into it. Loving it so far, still hating that damn run-in rate. :|

Got Dawn. I'll get my friend code up sooner or later.

I don't really mind the run-in rate... in any case it's a hell of a lot easier to level up on Dawn than it is in Dusk anyway.

Then again Dusk has two exclusive areas while Dawn has one (in relation to where a majority of the version exclusive Digimon are found).

I went with Dawn because I wanted to have a female rival while playing as a female character. I'm not much of a evil type person either so the Dusk Digis didn't appeal to me :p

Just got Dawn today finally. Went in on the 19th and saw nothing. Went on the 20th and still nothing. Asked person at counter and was told it was coming in the next day. BAH! On top of that, stickers were supposed to be included in the game and I got nada. What a gyp! Somebody hates Canada :P

I never thought anyone but me, Rocky and Chaotic would be buying the game, so seeing your entry surprised me, Lacerta. That makes another person to battle with.

I got Coronamon, Kudamon and Biyomon in my party. Planning on ditching Biyomon.

My FC code is 1976 7985 0490.

At least the random-battle rate makes it faster to scan Digimon. The GFF Wiki page is up as well so add your FCs there!

Yay, so the Digimon Game ratio is 3:1 Dawn to Dusk. :|

So, what are your teams right now?

The levels and stats escape me, but:

Chronos (Gaogamon)
.//shine (DotShineGreymon)
Charcoal (Firamon)

Reserve
Shin (Veedramon)*

*I'm planning to degenerate him to make him an ExVeemon

I love how HP/MPs are completely restored if you stay in a dungeon for a while, so I get to spend more time in dungeons without having to go all the way back to town every time your team's running low on health.

I did pretty much nothing but grind at Limit Valley to get everyone to their champion forms, booya. Maybe I'll try getting to Bronze rank now.

My team:

Warsaw [Reppamon]
Lvl 23. HP 1028 MP 970

Aero [Veedramon]
Lvl 27. HP 603 MP 475

Raptor-1 [GeoGreymon]
Lvl 28. HP 623 MP 552

Reserve:

Corona [Firamon]
Lvl 34. HP 804 MP 664

Warfang [Garurumon]
Lvl 1. HP 428 MP 341

Gonna get a Kumamon now for GrappLeomon. Then I'll get a Pandamon from Rocky and voila! One BanchouLeomon. I never got one in the first game cause the XP needed for him was atrocious. Apparently it's the same in this game so hopefully I won't give up again this time :P

Update: I'm a Bronze tamer! Whoo!!!

I got 2 farms now: Savers and Tamers (homage obviously :P). I stuck my Kumamon in there. I randomly matched with someone to get Tsunomon. Gonna change Reppamon's name now that I have Warfang.

Oh wait...I now realize a Digimon gets full HP/MP back after levelling.

Anyway, team update.

Chronos (Gaogamon)
Level: 32
HP: 931
MP: 742

.//shine (DotShineGreymon)
Level 38
HP: 754
MP: 704

Charcoal (Firamon)
Level 37
HP: 839
MP: 696

They're the main team... Chronos is 1 level away from becoming a MachGaogamon... I just need about 300 more Machine EXP points to get him to Digivolve.

I can't wait. >.<

The Gaomon line has to be one of the best lines ever. They all look awesome.

The Sunken Tunnel is the best place (so far) for getting Machine XP. There's an area somewhere to the right side of the dungeon that has nothing but Machine Digimon (except for the not-occasional Betamon). That's how I got the XP needed for RiseGreymon.

My team's the same as before, give or take, except I'll be hatching a Guilmon soon. I just got RiseGreymon, and I'm very close now to get Flaremon and AeroVeedramon. I can't wait. He's one of my absolute favourite Digimon and I want him baaad. I'm grinding now for Holy XP to get ShineGreymon and Tylinmon.

Chaotic and I did a mock battle last night just to see how it went, and it was pretty cool, although it took a bit for the stupid connection to find us. We had a 2 out of 3 battle. I wiped out his Growlmon/Gaogamon/Firamon pretty quickly, but he came back with a vengeance in the next two matches and took the crown. Ah well. Maybe next time he won't be so lucky with my Ultimates.

We also did some matching 'cause there were some Digis I wanted. That went more smoothly.

Update: I got AeroVeedramon! Sweet! I changed his name to WindRaker. After Corona evolves, I'll have three Ultimates, just enough for a battle if anyone's interested :D

I just made it to Silver rank! The battle was quite tough. 2 of my Digimon bit it so luckily I had some in relief. Don't underestimate these guys 'cause they'll rape you. They're harder than the actual game.

Just don't try the Gold rank battle for a very long time. I wasted 6000 bits trying to do it. I couldn't even get one attack in other wise, AND they killed my .//shine. :tpg:

Haha after what I went through to get Silver, I am not keen at trying for Gold yet :D

I did it. My entire team is now at Ultimate level, including my Flaremon, though he's just a placeholder until I get Bancho. I changed some names around too.

Current team:

Windraker (AeroVeedramon)
Lvl 38. HP 1131 MP 907

Raptor-1 (RiseGreymon)
Lvl 39. HP 1144 MP 986

Stormblade (Tylinmon)
Lvl 24. HP 1518 MP 1385

Relief:

Warfang (WereGarurumon)
Lvl 10. HP 1454 MP 1129

Grim (WarGrowlmon)
Lvl 22. HP 1077 MP 914

Corona (Flaremon)
Lvl 38. HP 1300 MP 1072

Update: Okay so I tried going for Gold anyway and damn, did I get seriously raped. Seeing BanchouLeomon makes me determined to get one, and I found an easier way to get him too. Well, Chaotic did anyway. Just match two level 60+ Beast Digimon. Hatching requirement is 6000+ Beast XP, which is much more preferable than getting 50000+ Beast XP from jogressing Pandamon and GrappLeomon. WereGarurumon will be my ticket.

Because Wolfie wants me to:

My current team (with stats):

Garusuke (WereGarurumon)

I'm still in the process of degenerating and maxing out stats. I'm on the Gaia Origin quest.

As for online battles, I've been in about 8 or so with Wolf. SHE KEEPS WINNING. I have a 3w-5L record against her... So tough. T_T

On a side note, Episdoe 3 for Digimon Data Squad is out...

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3

Am I the only one really upset with Gaomon's dub voice? He sounds way too proper. T_T

Honestly, the dub on a whole has been a lot better than expected. Sure it ain't no Naruto or Funi Piece.

And hey, it's got Crsipin Freeman, he's like Scot McNeel Lighte.

Eh, this dub is way worse than what I was hoping for. Most of the script itself isn't that bad, it's just that most of voices were horribly miscast. The worse offense is definitely getting Crispin Freeman to play someone who's supposed to be a 14-year-old boy, but Masaru's mom and Gaomon are particularly bad as well.

I'm actually surprised I took a liking to Agumon's voice. The whole Boss thing actually has a ring to it.

I thought Thoams was in the 17's at least.

Because this thread needs random updates.

Episode 4 is out.

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3

Gaomon still has the same damn lines.

well, of course, cuz untill Thomas comes off his high horse, him saying anything else would probably fry Crispin Freeman's Brain.

I stopped watching the dub 'cause I don't see the point and can just watch the sub instead.

That said, is anyone still playing Dusk/Dawn? I've been spending lots of time training my team lately, even neglecting Contra 4 to do so. I've no idea how to make my BanchouLeomon stronger so he's no longer gonna be in my team. He'll be replaced with MetalSeadramon. My pride and joy is Sleipmon. If anyone wants to battle me, let me know.

...Of course, my stats may also potentially scare off would-be battlers too, but that is what Handicap mode's for.

Anyway, here's my team below. Their attacks are a secret ;3

No matter what, my WereGarurumon isn't getting much stat increases compared to the others. Hopefully it will pick up soon.

Well, I'm fucked when I battle you. <_<

Once I get my game back, I'll post up my stats also.

Well, it happened. Digimon Savers has began airing November 30th in Germany. As with other German dubs, the OP is the Japanese OP in German. The names are from the dub, although they say Marcus Daimon instead of Damon.

I watched some clips on Youtube (Click here too) and here's my impressions:

Agumon sounds all right.

Kudamon sounds like a girl and probably is one. Renamon was a guy in German, so there you go.

Yoshino and Lalamon sound fine.

Satsuma is okay.

Masaru just plain sucks. It's like he's permanently in neutral mode. Quinton Flynn doesn't sound angry enough. This guy isn't angry at all, period, which is totally against his character. It's like he's totally incapable of showing this emotion. It can't be that hard to portray an angry guy. Soichiro Hoshi nailed it perfectly.

Ep 3 isn't up on the site yet so I can't comment on Touma.

Here's the opening.

Oh, and a new Digimon DS game is coming soon. It looks like a Digimon version of Pokémon Ranger. You capture and train Digimon to do battle.
