The third part might have been at least better if Ken was there as he was easily the most interesting new character of 02, but even then not likely since the 3rd act was focused almost entirely on new character Willis. Which even with the original Japanese special I'm confused, why did they think a half-hour or so would be enough time to get attached to a character we'll likely never see again afterwards while the actual cast we know are just there to help him with his story? I mean, at least with most shonen filler movies they at least have 90 minutes of screentime to get invested in the new movie-exclusive characters. Usually doesn't work but at least it's more viable.

10:01 You can take classes at a university or college while still going to school. Willis is still in elementary, but he's taking "classes" at Colorado state; which could mean he's either got college courses on the weekend or he goes to the college during the summer for courses. You don't "have" to be at college to take college courses. I know, "don't explain the joke", but this isn't a confusing concept.

The sad thing is that the whole 'virus finding them in the real world' part is ridiculous but in the context of the show...made perfect sense. The problem is in adaptation. In some adaptations you have over-explanations where the movies try to hold your hand and walk you through everything that you should already know from the source material and then you have a movie like this which doesn't even bother. If you watched the shows, you understand, if you didn't then heaven help you. Added on top of that, i'm surprised you didn't mention the fact that the third portion takes place after a season that North America didn't even get. In the US editions we never see angemon and angewoman get their golden digi eggs, or see the evolved forms you see in that movie in the show. Because that portion never actually aired here. So even if you were an avid fan you're left going 'wait..what? When did that happen?'.

I really don't get why people dislike this movie. I love the snarky dialogue and the music and I actually think they improved the plot with the changes. Some examples of what I think was improved: 1. They gave Diaboromon an actual motive for his actions, adding a tragic dimension to his character, and giving a reason for him dialing all those phones, not to mention giving him more lines, and, by extension, an actual personality, along with a reason for him existing in the first place. 2. They provided an actual reason for why Willis/Wallace's digimon got transformed. 3. They cut out the sub-plot of Wendigomon kidnapping and de-aging the season 1 kids. It's especially good considering that they never showed what happened to them afterwards in the original. 4. They improved Cherubimon's death scene with him thanking Willis/Wallace. 5. They improved the scene before Omnimon's creation with this line. Tai to Wargreymon: "I don't have a whistle to wake you." Tying together both shorts and adding more weight to the situation for Tai, perhaps the scene reminded of him what happened with Greymon and Parrotmon. 6. They improved Tai and Izzy's character interaction. Like in the scene where Tai attacks Izzy. In the original, it was just Izzy reading some rather lightly annoying emails, here it was one long and fairly nasty email without Izzy indicating they were someone else's words. They also gave Izzy a reason for needing to use the restroom, with the whole gag of Tai's mom's recipes instead of him just having too much tea. 7. This bit: "I'm Greymon now." "You can be whoever you want...big guy..." Cue roar and epic beatdown 8. This line: Izzy: YOU'VE!!! GOT!!! MAIL!!! followed by Diaboromon: "Connection...terminated..." 9. A lot of the music really helps give the movie more energy, for example: "One Week" because the music really fits the fast montage of daily life events and mirrors Tai and Sora's situation. "Here We Go" adds tension and importance to the situation along with Matt and TK's dialogue, really getting the audience to feel how everyone's hopes are pinned on the heroes and their determination to prevail despite the odds against them. "Let's kick it up." Especially the way the "Yeah!"s in the song synch up with Omnimon's blasting. "Hey Digimon" with the happy childlike feel to it, especially with the random children chasing them. It really adds a nostalgic joy of childhood feel to the scene. The English digivolution theme, during the fight between Parrotmon and Greymon. It sounds triumphant and it especially goes well with the fight, like it's saying "This is who we are and what we do." 10. Kairi's voiceover. While it could state the obvious, especially in the first segment, it mostly provides either humorous commentary on the events, or gives the audience information they wouldn't have had otherwise (e.g. what's with the phone dialing?). Also, I have a crush on Lara Jill Miller's voice... Don't judge me xD Now, I don't think the movie was perfect. They whole "pulling out Golden Digi-eggs from nowhere after suddenly being able to mega-digivolve" thing really makes no sense. I also thought Sora came off as being rather bratty and unfair, not coming to help Tai or even hear what was going on. But I don't think those ruin the movie. If anyone disagrees with me, I respect their opinion, but I think this movie gets an unfairly bad rap from it's critics.

If you think 4Kids is bad, just check out the old school Voltron dub. In that version, in addition to the usual 4Kids styled edits like dumbing down the show, taking out the violence and changing names, Pidge sounded like a gremlin, Sven (Shiro) sounded like the Swedish Chef Muppet, there is a Robeast that sounded like Stewie from Family Guy and to top off all of this weirdness off -- Lotor, one of the villains, is played by the man who voiced Scrappy Doo. It is one hell of a surreal series to watch to say the least. I swear it is like Proto 4Kids with all of the edits made in that version. At least it's fun to riff. Also, the subbed version, Go Lion, is super violent as well, being like a poorly written version of Berserk with blood and guts everywhere, using a lot of mature subject matter. If Go Lion got a FUNimation dub -- it would be rated R, hands down. Also, VLD, the Netflixs reboot, is awesome. xP But yeah, 4Kids is still the worst when it comes to edits. At least the new YGO movie was good and stuck more to the actual anime. They even showed guns in that movie. Never heard of Odex, though. I'm super thankful FUNimation exists.

I know the thing as a whole is a dumpster fire, but what about the individual segments/thirds of this "film"? From what I remember and what I hear most often, the middle segment, "Our War Game" is often considered an incredible piece of animation for the Digimon franchise as a whole.
@cartooncritic70457 жыл бұрын
Foresight616 The first short film, Digimon Adventure, is what helped kickstart the franchise. It's great in Japanese. Watch the subbed version sometime if you can. Our War Game, the second film, is good as a standalone piece, but it's not without its problems. For starters, it doesn't have the same writer as the show, and it shows more than one would think at a glance (more on that in a bit). Also, the plot point about Tai and Matt going into the Internet is dumb no matter the language it's in. If you want to see an anime that takes a similar idea to this film done better, check out Summer Wars if you haven't already. It's written by the same guy, and he basically took the good parts of Our War Game and refined it. The third film, Hurricane Touchdown (or whatever the hell it's called) is just as nonsensical and incoherent in Japanese as it is in English. If you value your free time, just skip it.

Cartoon Critic Yeah the 3rd film was a mess partly because Digimon Adventure 02 was a total mess. Armor Digivolving itself made little sense in its own context. The Digimon became weaker and lamer(seriously, 3 armor digimons could not even give a sweat to Kokomon for 5 whole minutes while Angemon and Angewomon were able to tear its flesh with one blast?) Fusion became way too convenient a plot device(thank god this section doesnt have that. Great job 'movie' you did one thing right!!) that ruined the novelty of fusion we saw with Omnimon(like several other anime action shows). Davis needs to be taped across his mouth(whines WAYYY TOO MUCH), Yolei and that little kid(forgot his name) might as well not exist, TK and Kari get little growth from season 1 and the entire original cast get the shaft, having little relevance to the entire plot after being developed and grown so much that we loved them.

It wouldn't be too much different really. The first segment was just a prologue/promotional film. The second segment was legitimately good, but still took major leaps of logic. And while the dub hacked it into pieces for running time, the third segment was just as bad in Japanese. Probably even worse because most of the deleted scene lacked any explanation or character growth.

for Mushrambo there were two OVA's released that compiled both seasons into two ova's... only in japan. and that was back in 2008. also the english dub is butchered enough on it's own. seriously combining two episodes into one making it a giant mess, i will never let that go. thank god for the dutch dub for those episodes as they kept them separate and aside from minor details those are practically the same as the japanese original episodes. shame the dutch dub is rare to find uploaded on the internet. (dutch dubs tend to be kinda bad so it's not saying much, you heard one, you practically heard them all, they recycle voice actors a lot, especially older dubs.) but glad to see someone here at least remembers that show.

I just noticed, Bennet now has the words アニメ捨てる in his title logo. The first three characters are literally "anime"in katakana. The last three symbols can be romanized as "suteru" which means "to drop," but it can be abstracted to mean abandon or give up. Nice touch.
