Infermon killed the villain cliché. No monologues, no waiting for your opponent to get stronger, he did everything right!

[@ZinfinityX]

I guess it was the writers that dropped the ball, they couldn't go without giving him a voice

[@MajoraZ]

He also fucked with telecommunications companies to screw with Tai's internet, IIRC; and as Diablomon launched a god damn nuke at their apartment to get them off his back. Super intelligent villain.

[@Austroid]

The most unrealistic part was that all the kids watching had impossibly-perfect connections for the time lol.

[@canyounotsee]

Actually Japan's infrastructure was a lot better than USA's at the time. Do you remember pokemon crystal? That had online in Japan that worked by tethering to your cell phone's connection, which was 2001 (1 year after this movie came out). This feature wasn't even released in America because we didn't even have casual cell phones much less cell phones with data plans. Though they do touch on slow connection in the movie (Matt was stuck at his grandma's using her slow ass network).

Dude, this guy has to be the smartest villain not just in digimon, but in anime in general, he's like, "should I digivolve to the same level as them to keep the power levels even? Naw fuck that I'll just skip ahead and wreck them!" "Oh man they're gonna digivolve again and get stronger! Naw fuck that I'ma shoot them while they're just standing there!"

I mean, this dude was pretty much born in the Internet.

[@Blazieth]

He was literally created from a collection of computer viruses (in the original... the bit tying him to Willis was part of the English Movie's hackjob to tie the movies together), and exists primarily on the Internet. Navigating the net and identifying his enemy's addresses would be as inherently instinctual as breathing. And in the original japanese, he had no voice; the emails were his ONLY means of communication.

[@svin7987]

Not true. In the Japanese Infermon calls Tai and say "mercy(which apparently means "hello")"@@Blazieth

[@Blazieth]

@@svin7987 Fair. He's saying "moshi moshi", an informal japanese telephone greeting. But it sounds like he's using an automated text to speech thing rather than Infermon itself actually speaking through the phone. I'm not sure I'd count that as "having a voice".

[@QuillsOnWheels]

As cool and smart as it was to see Infermon attack Greymon and Kabuterimon while they were digivolving to Ultimate, it makes you wonder why he's the only villain who has ever done this. I mean this shows that Digivolution isn't instantanious and the Digimon digivolve in complete sight without protection. So do other villains just shit and watch as the Digimon digivolve and Infermon was the only smart one who attacked? Not just this time but he attacks patamon before he can evolve to Angemon in the next scene as well.

Infermon:spider shooter (echoing)

[@Riley-nq3tc]

Man, Infermon's design is a really good example of clean/effective character design. I'm sure some of this is not just the director/team & budget involved but likely just a splash of nostalgia on my end lol. However *Infermon* really does feel like a new strain of villain for our main cast. Not because of his power level but because, ESPECIALLY in its early stages, his design leans less towards (Admittedly fucking radical) toyetic & operatically villainous bad guy and more towards a truly off kilter corruption of the usual franchise designs. It's not some whole new style, but rather a carefully twisted spin that communicates both the fact that this being has been *corrupted* by and now operates as a Virus. Keromon most of all comes across as your usual jovial Digimon but with its crazed eyes and distressed unkempt strands flowing from it like a shock of unkempt hair...The poor guy was hopelessly driven from whatever sanity is for a Digimon by what amounts to *voices in his head* Idk. This turned into a ramble but I really feel like the team involved here really went above and beyond the circumstances/origin of this project to deliver something way more artful than anyone on the executive side had ever intended for

[@blitzer9981]

I definitely agree, Keramon’s entire line hits just the right balance between “yes this is still clearly a Digimon” and “does this guy seem off to you?”. He’s unsettling because it’s not entirely clear exactly what’s wrong about him until his Mega form, which looks more outright villainous than it’s previous ones. Even then, by that point Diaboromon’s already established itself as a threat and gets to really go ham with how powerful and creepy it is. In short, definitely agree with what you’re saying, this guy was so well done.

[@Unversed333]

Keramon could have evolved to its Champion level Chrysalimon, but that form would have put it at a disadvantage as it would be unable to move, despite having high defense. In lieu of waiting it out, it skipped the level so that it could actually fight back. That said, had it not been given the chance to evolve naturally, Infermon would have been more powerful.

[@Luxord5294]

Which is a scary thought in of itself, how strong would Diaboromon have been if he had Digivolved naturally?! Not to mention his multitude of clones that seem just as strong as the original. Even worse, imagine Armageddemon even stronger; he would've been beyond even the Sovereigns in strength...

Y'know, the bit where Infermon blitzes them mid-digivolution makes me think- Everybody's always talking about wanting more stories with villains that do exactly that. But personally, what I want to see is the other side of the same coin: A team of evolving/transforming heroes (digimon, magical girls, etc.) that only transform 1 or 2 at a time, so the rest can cover them while they're vulnerable. Maybe even have a member of the team who specializes in quick-transforming but at the cost of power or longevity or something, so they can have someone at the appropriate power-level running interference right from the start

Looking back it was a shame they didnt introduce herculeskabuterimon in this movie, would've been the perfect time considering how important izzy is in the plot and it wouldve been the first tamer mega we saw outside the protagonists.

[@jdmarsh91]

Honestly, only issue I ever had with this scene was that Agumon didn't Warp Digivolve to WarGreymon and Tentomon Digivolve to MegaKabuterimon right from the start before attacking. He was too busy to notice them and by the time he would have potentially heard them, he'd be a Rookie being bombarded by attacks from a Mega and an Ultimate level

[@coolunusual]

Well that would have just been complete overkill. An ultimate and a mega here would have ended the movie
