Nice interaction between Koushiro and Taichi.

I don't get how Yamato can be off 'finding himself' at a time like this. What if everyone died? And if he wants to learn the true meaning of friendship, he should be here involved in it.

Geez, Patamon is never gonna get to Perfect level, or when he does it's gonna be for like one episode. It's really kinda unfair, I mean, it took him the longest to digivolve into Adult too and we just started getting to see Angemon more frequently.

Mugendramon's death was kinda anti-climatic considering how powerful and badass he was earlier on. It was like... suddenly Wargreymon just defeated him in one slash? What!?

Aww that was anti-climactic. Machinedramon just gets taken down in one shot :( I was expecting a more balanced battle.

Yeah I agree, it was disappointing since there was little to no action. I hope atleast Piedmon doesn't get hax-killed.

Welp, scratch what I said in the previous episode thread. Kari's presence was finally spectacular.

I also agree Machinedramon got taken out far too easily. He seemed a lot more powerful than that.

It's weird how WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon couldn't even take out VenomMyotismon together, and EACH of the dark masters are meant to be more powerful... now all of a sudden they're whooping their asses single-handedly. seems legit

Am I the only one irritated by Hikari's flawlessness as a character? I mean she's totally a Mary Sue. I wonder if we're gg to get an elaborate explanation for how she becomes a body of light and strengthens a Digimon.

The Mugendramon Arc is the darkest arc in this show but the way he lost was so anti-climatic. Of course when good guys avenge their friends, it's justified but when bad guys do, it's definitely wrong.

On the bright side, I'm glad Andromon didn't die.

But then again, I think they are rushing this arc so that we get to see Piemon fast. Back then when I was younger, I thought this show was a masterpiece but now rewatching it as an adult, it actually has a lot of visible flaws.

You guys do realize that the reason he killed Mugendramon so easily is because he used the Dramon Killer? That, and Hikari restored him to his full power.

It doesn't change the fact that the fight was lacklustre in the end. All the build-up to Machinedramon was solid and I was atleast expecting a hard fight. The way it happened so fast makes it seem like a Deus ex Machina to be honest.

I can quite understand Matt`s decision as he behave like an ass. But what are Mimi and Joe doing is even worse. They just left because she don`t want to fight and don`t want see anyone dying again. She is really super stupid, it is impossible to make her more annoying.


Mugendramon death was anticlimatic. I know what they wanted to achieve but damn. He was the best out of the Dark Masters and they just elimnate him too fast. Yea, I know Dramon-killer and so on. It should be much better though.

What the heck is happening with Numemon. Back then in EP 6 they were described as slime-y, disgusting, stinking and awful Digimons, throwing poo at everyone. And right now it is like they are cute and adorable.

Yeah, i agree with the anticlimatic death of Mugendramon. Even with Dramon Killer. It should have lasted a little bit more the fight. At least half an episode more.
Even with his death, he did well and was one of the best enemies yet.


This is just a theory, but I noticed Numemon's "sacrifice" was in part what Agumon needed to warp-digivolve,
I wonder if Hikari did it on purpose ; then this huge "miss perfect" thing would be cuestionable at best.

Tachi and Koushiro: very well done ; their interaction was much needed

overall great ep. 9/10

This is a pretty mediocre episode. The show has weakened since it became Monster Of The Week. This was mostly them wandering through the sewers before Digimon attacked, and while the fight scenes were good they weren't really enough to make it a good ep.

Top tier bullshit this episode. Also, as I remembered, this don't explain Hikari's powers or even try to at all AND her cold is "suddenly" gone now that the need for it to exist is gone. Heck, she didn't even NEED the medicine. She got over it on her own making the whole last episode pointless!

Years ago, I would have disagreed. Now? I have the same feelings as you.

Plus, it wouldn't make sense since she did the same with the others earlier in the ep and no one died then. It's hinted before that Hikari's Light can give strength back since it did before in another ep, if I'm not mis-remembering.

Andromon.


Taichi was on his "Hikari" shit again this episode because he didn't want to get slapped again.WTF this light come from? Her crest wasn't even glowing. I liked how mature Hikari's eyes looked while glowing. I love that WarGreymon pretty much Zantetsuken'd Mugendramon. Andromon didn't die. Jonouchi voiced WaruMonzaemon. Nice.
If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have).

Yeah, definitely one of the weakest episodes. Hikari is just a super boring character, always was. Mugendramon was disappointing as well. Not just cos he was so easily defeated but also because he is, for the lack of a better term, a fucking moron. He killed WaruMonzaemon saying "I have no more use for you". wtf? What do you mean no more use lol? Killed him for absolutely no reason, and he had absolutely NOTHING to gain from doing that, just lose. I wouldn't even call him evil, he's just a complete incompetent idiot.

Good old too tired to evolve issue, it's been awhile.

Hikari sure is a walking deus ex machina. Whatever power she has needs to be explained asap. I also wish there're more bonding moments between her and the rest of the group, her and Tailmon especially. They got to talk for like 5 minutes before Tailmon was captured by Vamdemon, after that it's just fight after fight after fight.

The part where Machinedramon pit his head into the ceiling and walk was weird af. I can't even tell if it's awesome or stupid lol.
