Man my Nostalgic hit me hard I miss that show

Tamers is one of the most influential show I ever watched growing up when I think about my tastes in media

I'm a fan of both Digimon and Pokemon, but I stuck around with Digimon more because their monsters looked cooler. My favorite Digimon is Agumon.

_Nostalgia kicks..._

I slept on Digimon so hard as a kid but now that I've started playing Cyber Sleuth I've really started to open my eyes to what I was missing out on

Love the reboot. Last Evolution is still breaking my heart. And the way they've had the kids grow up with us as been fantastic. I will always love Digimon and it will always be better than Pokemon. The themes and how they handle grown up topics are superb.

digimon would always have a soft spot to my heart because they not fear to treat difficult topic like murder, suicide, depression and such but they treat some dgreat topic like friendship, teamwork and such

Thank you for this prodigious history lesson about digimon and uploading this the day after the 20th anniversary of digimon the movie and the blu-ray/DVD release of Digimon Adventure Last Evolution Kizuna 😀👏👏👏🎉🎉🎉

also the running gag for Digimon is Leomon always dies no matter what universe he's in, poor dude.

you forgot the fact that the Digimon requires a somewhat energy soul link with its human partner in battle, so when the Digimon get hurt it hurts it's human

The fact the Digimon teaches kids that it's ok to grow up is the exact reason why it's better than Pokémon.

I am a 30 year old American and I was OBSESSED. Drove me crazy Pokémon was what everyone else loved. I very much identified with TK 🧡

Digimon is still my favorite over Pokemon hands down!

I wish Digimon came back as a phone app so we can create our own Digimon and Digimon crest

man i love digimon frontier so much, it’s literally what shaped my childhood and ive seen it countless times its really such a good show, the character development is so well written, and takuya and the twins are still some of my favourite characters, i literally cosplayed them without even knowing what cosplay is i can only speak for the german ost but damn that was one heck of a ost. with broken wings is still my jam, and hyperspirit digitation? a whole bop

Thank you. People taught I was fooling when I said Digimon came out in a handheld tamagotchi device. Who's crazy now

Koji Wada’s Japanese op for Digimon still slaps waaaay harder than the English op. That song in the last evolution movie made me feel all the things

I remember going to the first digimon tri movie and everyone started to sing the opening..... I will never forget this beautiful moment of being in the same room with fans who adore the series and the song (Germany covered butterfly as its opening and I think that was a great choice! I don’t like the american song...) as much as I did and even got the courage to sing with x random people in a cinema room....

A friend was getting married and was selling off a lot of his stuff to afford the wedding. He joked that no one would buy his Wonderswan and I looked at him and I was like, "I would." And that's how I have a Digimon game that I can't read. TIme to start learning Japanese.

I feel like Pokemon and Digimon are similar but very different and shouldn't be so heavily compared.

Tim No! I haven't recovered mentally from Last Evolution Kizuna! 😭

Whoa, I knew the digimon movie was originally 3 movies combined. But I didn't realize the first part was aired before the first episode of the anime. That really changes the perspective of the person watching. Someone that saw the movie first would have so much more understanding of the scene with Kari when Tai went back, and everyone remembering the events during the fight with Mammothmon.

Personally I prefer digimon over Pokémon

I had more fun with the Pokemon Games, but Digimon definitely won in the TV Show department. I liked how Digimon's seasons were more self contained, rather than the unending slog with immortal MC that is the Pokemon show.

Please stop comparing Digimon to Pokémon

The fact that Digimon debuted as a Virtual pet toy, gives Agumon a chance to be included in Smash Ultimate. I'll shit bricks in excitement if he gets added in.

Wow, nostalgia hit me hard. Thank you for this Digimon documentation

Digimon was my childhood in every which way ❤️ it had such an impact

I had EVERYTHING Digimon when I was a kid. I had the entire series on VHS,I had a Veemon alarm clock,bed sheets,every action figure you could think of,every digivice in every color. My favorite thing I had was a custom wooden cut of out Greyson my mom had specially made. My mom went on a lot of business trips to Japan so whenever she was there she would buy whatever we couldn’t find in the stores over here and then just mail it back home. Fuck those were the days before 9/11 and the 08 housing crisis

For everyone that thought the Last Evolution had a sad ending, just know that they DO meet each other again, human potential is limitless no matter the age!

Did anyone really find Digimon: The Movie hard to follow? I mean, yeah, if you weren't up to date with the show it'd be very difficult to understand (which is fairly normal for movie spin-offs of TV shows) but if you were it's very easy to follow the three stories and where they fit in timeline wise. I was totally satisfied by it as a kid, finally getting to see the Highton View Terrace incident in full, the super fun battle through the internet and then an interesting fresh side story with the new, current cast of the show, and all of it with _way_ more slick animation than anything you'd ever see in the show. I honestly like the changes that were made to the plot as well, Willis being Diaboromon's creator makes Diaboromon a more interesting, tragic character and having the virus that infected him take over Kokomon too, again, makes the situation much more personal and tragic, rather than having Kokomon's infection be totally random like in the original. The third segment/Hurricane Touchdown is just generally more watchable in it's dubbed form, even though it's heavily edited down it really loses nothing important (the original is kind of a slog). The overall writing in the movie is a noticeable step up from the show's quality during the first two seasons too, the added jokes are better and land much more often. My only major criticism of the movie would be it's handling of the first segment, the impeccable atmosphere of the original is totally buried under the excessive narration. Sorry I ended up going on so much, as you can tell I'm a big defender of the movie, I really think they did a good job of meeting the seemingly impossible task they were given of turning 3 separate movies into a single enjoyable feature.

When i was a kid, Digimon was my fav show! It is one of the show, next to yugioh that got me into anime. Not to mention Hikari/Kari, Taichi/Tai sister is my first anime waifu even to this day.

I like both Pokemon and Digimon but did grow up with Pokemon more in my life but will admit both are awesome in their own unique ways and thats awesome!

Bandai should put Weregarurumon in Tekken

I watched one of the first anime’s as well as fusion when it was on Netflix, and I miss it a lot actually. I might rewatch them at some point

Digimon the original is back on Hulu.

I love this kind of video! I really enjoyed the Magical Girls one and the Isekai one too. Thank you for making them! They're very interesting and informative. My favorite Digimon are Patamon, Gatomon, Gabumon and Gomamon! :D

WOWZERS ANOTHER FANTASTIC VIDEO CRUNCHYROLL

6:45 (pokemon ability) " its super *effective* " wait isnt that illegal

My older brother (year and 9 months older) and I got the original digimon for christmas one year, once they got to rookie stage we immediately battled and I won, still have a picture of me as a kid holding my digimon in the air in victory and my brother with a grimace on looking at his lmao

I didn't have WB network only way to get it is to buy Cable....Yep Cable. had the local TV Stations so FOX was one of them. love waking up every Saturday mornings to watch Digimon, Monster Rancher, Godzilla The Series, Beast Machines or Sherlock Holmes the 22th century. I love Digimon ever since I saw it on TV, only watch the first series I didn't like second series. when hearing the news back in 2016 about Original Digidestined were coming back and relived my childhood again.

I really like how you talked about the new DA series as a digiegg

17:10 It's a tradition.

Shout out from the DigimonNerds4Life Facebook group. Just shy of 8,000 digimon fans. Thanks for the video Crunchyroll

16:43 thank you 100% i've been telling people that and no one listens. Also Tim needs to take better care of his virtual pets with the news ones coming. Digimon rearise mobile game is good and it's having its 1 year anniversary 🎉🎉 (2 years for jp version)

Currently playing Digimon ReArise on my phone. Just got Belphemon Rage Mode, Dorugoramon, Examon, RustTyrannomon, MetalSeadramon, Megidramon, MetalGarurumon, Rasielmon, PrinceMamemon, Ebonwumon, and GoldVeedramon in there. Trying to get Magnamon by raising my Veemon (still trying to get Kimeramon, Leviamon, Omnimon (including Zwart and Merciful Mode), Volcanicdramon, and Gallantmon Crimson Mode).

Great video!

I remember that Pokemon used to come on Fox early in the morning here in South Carolina before I head to school and then Kids WB bought the rights to it..... Digimon was a phenomenal show in my opinion and I just can't wait to watch the reboot Digimon Adventures 2020!

1:00 oh boy this got my mom a little too addicted back in the day, she had like 5+ of those

I felt that Digimon World DS shout out

I love this SHOW! This show meant so much to me!

Digimon movie is my childhood. Shit makes me cry now. The digimon adventure remake isn't terrible. Voice of agumon is just wrong but whatever. Him digivolving made me tear up. Nostalgia hit me hard on digimon

Love this video and this series!! Please keep it up!! How about History of Megaman!!

I knew some people who had Tomodachi. The clothes they wear Digimon car reminds me of club kids from the late 90s and the early 2000s in New York

The new series deserves A LOT more attention!

Oh man i remember i was starting 5th grade and later during 5th grade i would run home to watch digimon every day after school to watch digimon before my karate lessons to

Thanks

This was awesome!

I love that I found this Video. Had a Blast going to the Theaters watching Adventure Tri. Tamers indeed is my favorite Series due to it's Dark Nature. I love Xros Wars, but I think the Manga is a lot better since the Protagonists actually recruit Classic Digimon. Also the Dub missed out on the Legendary Heros Episode which was pretty epic seeing all the Team Leaders going all out.

damn, crunchyroll really be putting out high quality youtube videos? subscribing

Such a nostalgic show love it

I enjoyed both Pokémon and Digimon, I got a Digimon X Virtual Pet last week and I love it so very much it’s like a Grape 🍇 Purple color. And next month I plan on picking out what Pokémon game I’m going to get come November, I’m still undecided but I want to know the Version Exclusives first before I make my final decision.

Digimon is awesome! I remember watching alot of it on Jetix and I also watched the Cyber Sleuth games! Currently watching the reboot now. Btw, Wargreymon is my favorite Digimon!

Yes a next one weeeeeee it's so nice watching these

Data Squad/Savers was underrated. I liked that one a lot

I love Digimon !

Tamers was my favorite season by far. I would love for them to do a continuation or reboot for its anniversary once they finish Digimon Adventure 2020

I just got back to the original series because I never finished it when I was a kid. Even better now: Watching the original Japanese dub. I'm impressed of how intriguing, funny, and moving it is...! I'm totally hooked. To Digimon experts: To watch the complete "official timeline" of the original cast, I must watch: DIGIMON ADVENTURE (currently watching), DIGIMON ADVENTURE 2, the DIGIMON TRI single season, and DIGIMON LAST EVOLUTION KIZUNA, right? Am I missing something...? The new remake would be an extra as well, but not needed to close the full circle, right...?

This video unlocked so many memories for me lol

It's sad that the American kids grew up with the inferior opening instead of butter-fly.

I've always heard about it for years but now I'm gonna check it out. I'm really gonna hate them being grow up and saying goodbye tho.

I hope Digimon survive come out one day...

Thank you crunchyroll I was actually in kindergarten when the show aired used to watch it with my cousin

Season 3 was my first Digimon season, then 4 before starting back

I liked this video. It was a lot better than I thought it would be.

The vpets are the real deal, i haven't watched any anime beyond the original 2 series, but recently i rediscovered thr vpets, not only i've been raising digimon they've become a part of my daily life i always have one with me running at all times

This video made me want to see it again.

I love tamagotchi's! They're so cool!

I just always thought homie’s gloves and goggles were the coolest. I’ve been trying to pull off that same little ensemble ever since.

I love how they can make anything a digimon from animals, plants, bugs, angels and gods I wonder what new digimon they will make

Loved going to Tamatown

I saw the Digimon the movie that's how I got hooked up too the series and also the Tri series as well

🥰 SO MUCH NOSTALGIA!!! I still have all these games and systems 🥰

Bandai put out a 20th Anniversary version of the VPet recently and it's great. It's like $20 on Amazon.

So a random thought came to my mind once... What if VRV & Crunchyroll were on Switch? Hell Crunchyrolls on the Wii U

The digimon movie and its soundtrack are the definition of my upbringing

I picked up my new digivice vpet today!

I have enjoyed both Pokemon and Digimon. Heck the Digimon Tri movies brought me back into Digimon and is my favorite Bandai Namco series.

I'm just watching this to see how digimon started since I'm watching the remake (which is the first time I'm experiencing anything digimon). And now Crunchyroll is telling me that some digimon will die and the ending. And now I'm crying

I remember going to see the movie with my family. They gave out trading cards.

Kizuna broke my heart but it was really good. We all have to grow up

Just watched Last Evolution Kazuna and I am 29 and cried lmao

Not sure whether or not to hate you or love you for getting that old tune back in my head...still remember Terriormon fighting to that in the old garbage movie... I swear it said "Funk So Rubber" though. Probably just bad sound quality at the time. But...thanks. Love the video, hate you for the moment for reminding of that song. Good work either way, gonna shut up now and keep watching.

Wow now its animated that's cool

Can’t wait for the reboot

Frontier was my favorite, loved Beetlemon. Could never get my card to scan though. Very sad kid days.

im from mexico so i got fox kids as its own channel and the beatiful butter-fly for the first series

Digimon Tamers is unquestionably the best the show had ever been

“The ancient times of 1996” That hurt my soul
