Honestly.... They are scraping the bottom of the bucket with Xros wars as with Yugioh Xexal

 

Not even slightly (for the former at least). If you'll check, 90% of the conversation we've had thusfar about Xros Wars has been overwhelmingly positive. I'm afraid you'l have to present some evidence if you wanna make that assertion, heh.

 

Zexal's been fairly predictable and boring thusfar, but I think it's still too early to judge.

i may hate Yuma with a burning passion that is only slightly less then my hatred of jaden form most of GX but all in all I've liked Zexal though they are pulling a lot of stuff from the original they're just obvious enough that is good and not a rip off plus they toned down how important duel monsters is in peoples lives so the world is a lot more believable.

Huh? Your in Denial if you think I'm wrong. I never said it was a Bad Just its unoriginal. Its season two and five mixed together. Its Dna Fusion with Multiple Digimon and it has the Golden Evolutions wich Severely resemble Magnamon and Goldenrapidmon. But more so Makes me think of Burst mode, for some reason.

Really all DNA was was a way for them to get away with only making half the ultimates, and the gold forms where digivolution, digicross is more a blend of the digimon together which has been used very originally,and i can't say anything about the season 5 stuff cuz that is the only one I never saw i was kinda pissed that they replaced Gabumon with a cheap knock off, I have read up on it though and that one was unoriginal.

It's not unoriginal. In which series have they had a multi-partof the same digital world that was split apart because of a mechanical dragon and that has to be saved by a kid who actually has real talent as opposed to sheer dumb luck and controls an entire army of digimon?

 

Can you tell me which series has that?

Honestly they changed the DNA thing abit, there has yet to be anything original but some new Digimon. Its like saying Ruby and Sapphire of pokemon are completely different than Diamond and Pearl, ect.. Here I'll finish this argument with this. Xeros wars or Digimon Season 1

Your comparison is more like pokemon red and blue to black and white, the only similarity between DNA and xros is that more then 1 digimon become 1 digimon and that last part of your argument doesn't even make sense, and like stated before the people in Xros Wars actually have skill and don't just push through with luck or oh I want something to happen so it does.

I think you're just trying to feign ignorance because you as a person dislike Xros Wars, not because of the show itself. It has originality out the yin-yang.

 

Xrossing takes DNA to a completely new level by being able to use Digimon together in a variety of ways, forgive me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure DNA Digivolution didn't turn Digimon into actual weaponry that can pwn people. More to the point that DNA in 02 was just a hackneyed way to not use half the available ultimates. Need I remind you of Shakkoumon the holy teapot? Frankly, Xros Wars is at least doing it right.

 

The basis of the first half of Xros Wars is very much a conquest game, to claim all the Code Crowns so they can reshape the Digital World however they please. Then, they lost them all to Bagramon. There hasn't been a f**k-up that bad since the Tamers accidentally allowed the D-Reaper to emerge into the real world.

 

The second half is that they now have to clean up their f**k-up, which they've done through their strategies against the death generals and careful play. Granted, Dorbickmon was more of a lucksack since he was wiped out by ZeekGreymon, but NeoVamdemon and up proved their strategy and general non lucksackiness. They willingly allowed him to perform a forced-xros with Shoutmon in order to save MetalGreymon, who in turn had been forced-xrossed with NeoVamdemon, which was awesome. Zamielmon, they kept him occupied until the digital honey wore off and he returned to his original, more easy to hit size, despite his speed. Splashmon was roasted because he was made of water, and because he has no sentient troops. Olegmon, whilst uite joviant, was beaten by his own creation, who abused the powerful effects of his own voice to tear him apart. Gravimon was difficult, but it took a willing sacrifice (tell me, besides Frontier, who of the chosen kiddies dived in front of an attack?) to wipe him out due to stupid misplacement of his own core.

 

To be honest, there IS no argument. Each series follows their own themes, concepts and ideal. You can pick favourites if you will, but each do stand on their own, except 02, because it's just a 3 years later of Adventure.

Agreed. Xros really has rather little to do with DNA, despite appearances; it's far more dynamic.

 

ACtually, if I had to choose one element of Xros Wars that stood out, it'd be Taiki. Unlike every other protagonist thus far, he's smart. If he has a chance to get the drop on an opponent, he sets up an ambush. When one of the villains tries to trick him into fighting with the rest of the party, he turns it around on him by playing along while immediately seeing through the scheme and setting up countermeasures. I actually can't think of a single moment where Taiki's gotten into any trouble because he didn't see things through- as a general, he's actually rather competent.

 

Oddly enough, it's the rival Kirhia who has the usual "Screw strategy and just run in and kill things" strategy that protagonists usually employ, with the caveat that it's out of hubris rather than hot-bloodedness or whatever. It usually works for Kirhia of course, but that's because he's got ludicrous amounts of power.
