Blake Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Nope, it has to be Tamers. Xros Wars relies far too heavily on past seasons to be considered its own thing.This I loved Tamers the most out of the ones I've watched. It was just... IDK, something about it was the most enticing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Zero Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 I always re-watch 02. I do skip over the "epilogue" every time, but I watch it because it had more potential than any other season, imo. Dark Ocean, Sovereigns, Black WarGreymon, Deamon, Gennai and his origin/purpose, the World Tour, and Myotismon returning...it had so much going for it that it fascinates me how it turned out like it did.

Hydra of Ages Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 No. ... *watches* Well, I'll read the OP now that I have time, maybe I can become a tamer~ Five (Savers) is my personal favourite. If you're fine with subtitles, I'd recommend watching it subbed; Quinton Flynn gets a few good lines in as Marcus, and one particular censor they did is absolutely hilarious, but it doesn't make up for the havoc they reigned on the music score and minor annoying edits here and there. That's kinda what I was thinking, except I was trying to figure out how it got to Machinedramon, supposing Monochromon became Triceramon. IDK I just always thought it did when I was younger. As for the 4 we didn't cover... Unimon or Kokatorimon for SoraShellmon for JoeVegiemon for MimiObvious LadyDevimon for Kari. I would really like to see how this would work out =o I tended not to count anybody controlled by a Dark Gear as a potential partner, but Unimon for Sora strangely works. Meramon is also an option, though he's a rather nice guy. I had Bakemon for Joe, Gazimon for Mimi. LadyDevimon for Kari works, but I think I'd set Devidramon as the pre-evolution.

The Warden Posted March 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Well, Kari could still have Gatomon, albeit the mentally tortured and rather brutal one; thereby tainting here evolutionary tree towards Lilithmon instead of Ophanimon. Whilst many tend to judge XW against the other seasons, I do prefer to judge it by it's own merits. The Hunters section was in turn a complete waste of time due to incredibly obnoxious Protagonist; but Taiki was in turn quite the competant Leader unit. Though, I still feel his many qualities was compensating for having less Tamer Units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Zero Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Because Frontier was WTFBAD and 02 turned out badly, that's why @_@I stand by my opinion that if Frontier used the DATS organization (becoming more Power Ranger like) it would have done better. It wasn't the turning into digimon that made it bad, it was (like Hunters) the extremely vague plot until the closing episodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Roxas Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 I find it impossible to judge Xros Wars on its own merits because, and I can't stress this enough, it's too much of a throwback than it simply can't be treated as it's own thing. Frontier wasn't bad, and I thought the plot was actually firmly established, not to mention the Big Bad actually deserves the title. I can't remember why Cherubimon never stepped in, although that could easily be an "Orcus on his Throne" trait of his, but at least Cherubimon had enough of a backstory to make him a better villain than Bagramon.

Legend Zero Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 After looking back at the Frontier episodes....the plot does pick up a lot sooner than I thought.

Hydra of Ages Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 ...NOTHING is better than MetalGreymon. Oh come on, you people can't tease MetalGreymon like that and NOT show the full scene. http://youtu.be/ugtXp5esmKI After looking back at the Frontier episodes....the plot does pick up a lot sooner than I thought. I thought episode 13 (when they talk with Seraphimon) was way into the 20s. o.0 I can attest after watching it again that, even though it technically comes quickly, it feels like an eternity getting to 13. I find it impossible to judge Xros Wars on its own merits because, and I can't stress this enough, it's too much of a throwback than it simply can't be treated as it's own thing. How so? There are references to previous things, but they're never indispensable to the plot. I can safely say that if Xros Wars was the first digimon show I saw, I would not be confused. There are quite a lot of viewer bonuses, of course, but they never become a fundamental element of the show. Until Hunters that is. Hunters is difficult to enjoy on its own merits. Well, Kari could still have Gatomon, albeit the mentally tortured and rather brutal one; thereby tainting here evolutionary tree towards Lilithmon instead of Ophanimon. I considered that, but ultimately decided "all the original partners died" meant "all the original partners died". As for why not Datamon for Sora... eh, even though he would make sense, he doesn't really fit thematically with Sora in any way. I didn't want to pair Etemon up with anyone either, because we already have one Primary villain attached to TK. Oh, I'm good with Subs. Savers is the consensous best? I'll watch some over the weekend. Thanks guys :) Oddly enough, Savers is somewhat controversial around here, though I seem to have swayed some people's opinions with my multiple essays on the subject. If it wouldn't be any trouble, would you mind posting your thoughts on the show when you get a few episodes in? I love hearing the opinions of people during a show's run, and you don't often get an opportunity to get people's incomplete opinions after the show's stopped airing.

Nexev Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 I still say Sora Datamon. Datamon is the only villian who WANTED to get a partner, though only to kill Etemon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barian Warlord Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Datamon was to aggressive about it plus he wasn't very strong, I feel like Tai would go for a power type so I could see him getting something like a Tyranomon or maybe that greymon that Etamon had.

Phantom Roxas Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Okay waht the f***, first people are like "ITS TOO DIFFERENT" now you are like "ITS TO MUCH THE SAME" MakeUpYourMind Lovely Warrior hates the Xrossing concept of the series. I have always been the only one who thought that it was too much the same. Sometimes that could be a good thing, but Xros Wars doesn't do it right. How so? There are references to previous things, but they're never indispensable to the plot. I can safely say that if Xros Wars was the first digimon show I saw, I would not be confused. There are quite a lot of viewer bonuses, of course, but they never become a fundamental element of the show. I'm not sure if I've said this year yet, but if I haven't, then I'm surprised that I'm only saying it now. My "theory" is that the writers have a hat that they use to pick out a random Digimon, and then just write the episode from there. Granted, it's probably best to view it as its own thing, because old fans would tend to compare it to the previous seasons, but Xros Wars is still accessible to newcomers.
