Interesting start, hope it keeps it's pace, considering how the last half of Adventure 2020 really went downhill. But liking what I'm seeing so far.

One think bothers me is that at first episode Rookie beats Champion and next episode it will be against Ultimate, but a bit good part is it only beat that champion just enough make him retreat not completely kill it. Can't wait see future episodes.


I thought the same thing but I get the feeling it's going to be more like Xros Wars with less of an emphasis on levels. The OP showed three different Gammamon forms so maybe they're a new form of evolution how 02 and Frontier introduced armor and spirit evolutions.

These series Digivices are based Vital Bracelets that was released 2021-03-13 in Japan and May in USA, and even new version Vital Bracelet known as Digivice-V- was released 2021-10-02 in Japan too, old ones are know as Digital Monster. Plus all new 3 Digimon has shown are at Rookie stage and all evolutions revealed are at Champion stage, so Stage level concept exist, but probably regular levels concept like RPGs/Story series games of Digimon and even World Digimon games series training concept exists too. Plus they are partner Digimon, so they get extra powers from partners too.

Well, I have to say I am very surprised by this episode. A Digimon that "eats" time from other things and beings? It was kind of creepy when we turned that girl and the boy into old people o.o
I found those moments to be disturbing, but in a delightful way. From the look on the first girl's face to her voice: I honestly felt like I was watching a Digimon Murder someone in cold blood. Now that helps both set the tone and sets some of the stakes for the show.

A solid first episode and I look forward to what is coming down the pipe.

Yeah as seen with the full vitality charge before Gammamon uses Breaclaw.

I really liked the paranormal investigative concept they are using for the show as I think it really works well with Digimon.
It also had a real Digimon Tamers feel to me with it seemingly being set in the real world, the two male and one female protags and the way the enemy digimon are more like mysterious phenomenon rather then just monsters.

I actually didn't noticed Digimon Tamers vibe myself till my 12 years old brother just said that it reminded that for him with Opening and at that point I was actually ashamed as he's oldest brother who introduced him to Digimon as well. xD

Forgot do comment about this last night. I'm very curious about this BlackTailmon in a hoodie.

Thank you for noting it, because I didn't released in that quick moment that it was BlackGatomon and thought it was new Digimon. And looks like these series will give some spotlight for it along side new look (Jacket with Hoodie and Backpack). :)

I just watched Toilet Bound Hanako-kun so I'm already into the "cute but maybe not so cute youkai setup". They're really running ouf ot ideas to come back to this classic trope tho. But... I like this better than appli monsters.

But come on... a digiwatch! could you at least try to not be too Youkai Watch ?...

By that logic Yokai watch stole Yokai medals from Digimon xros wars digimemories. Y'all really need to stop looking at a watch and a monster and scream "Yokai watch!" When other franchises like shin megami tensei already did that. Otherwise we're just going to have the "Pokemon rip-off" problem all over again, an inaccurate accusation based on superficial things. This is really just a digivice with with a wristband.


They could have made the ghost / youkai digimon series with something else than a watch, just sayin'

MC DOESN'T WEAR GOGGLES 0/10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously tho, I'm really loving this already! Seems they're going to recycle some less used old Digimon and give them some nice settings like Clockmon this episode and Mummymon next (which I'm already excited about since I love ancient Egypt stuff in any form).

The opening is super catchy and the artstyle is really to my liking, a bit to the "too childish looking for me" side, but still very far for reaching that border.

The "Digimon posing as an urban legend/ghost" reminds me of those cases from Cyber Sleuth and and I loved the concept there.

Seems Gammamon will have multiple Armor-like evolutions, looking forward to that. And I already want to hug Angoramon so much, he's killing me with cuteness!

Kiyoshirou freaking out so much really cracked me up, I know I'm gonna like this character. Mine character is really interesting too, though they could make his hair look a bit better, but that's just a nitpick.

Speaking of Gammamon again, he's adorable as well! Also I'm really curious about that foreshadowing of Gammon becoming some scary evil Digimon (as implied when Clockmon forwarded his time for a brief moment).

Not a huge fan of the art style, but love the new digidesigns. Also, did he just defeat a champion level digimon as a rookie!? If he's already this absurdly OP, imagine how powerful that future version is him is gonna be damn

I like the slightly more mature take on this one, i like how they used visual cues to convey some important plot points instead of bare exposition, which is something i hadnt liked about recent digimon entries.

I just hope it keeps going for this way and doesnt devolve into repetiveness and that stuff.

I wasn't expecting much from this Digimon series, but I like the first episode so far. Watching this show is like a breath of fresh air after the mediocre Digimon 2020 reboot because we have new characters and some new digimon. It's dark and mature tone really reminds me of Digimon Tamers and I really like Gammamon. This series could not come at a better time with Halloween right around the corner.

Wow Digimon Ghost Game shows a grand improvement over the lazy filler cgi trash that was Apill monsters and even the poorly written reboot.Its like the franchise pulled itself out of its rear end after years of dissapointment.

Actual threats to people even in the first episode.Interesting main leads.Not being too kiddy or shonen with its logic.

Will it mantain its quality?

One thing that crossed my mind: maybe Child level Gammamon was able to defeat Adult level Clockmon, because the first was fully materialized and the latter was not.

Good theory.

I just realized that we kinda already know that in future they may introduce 4th Tamer, because I think they will want introduce mascot of Vital Bracelets Pulsemon in Anime where Vital Bracelets are Digivices and introduce him along side Human partner would be best approach for that.

Yeah, it would be really fitting for Pulsemon to be here and I hope this prediction comes true!

Yeah, i think its been made clear multiple times along the many digimon series that digimons with tamers can become potentially more strong than the average, and also do it at a faster rate, so gammamon defeating clockmon isnt a surprise specially since he did it just after receiving hiro's support.

I rememeber in digimon tamers the whole impmon arc revolved around the idea of him being unable to get stronger, and only after he became friends and teamed with a girl he was able to evolve on belzebumon (from what i barely remember).

More like he came back to the kids that were already his partners (which he left because the brats kinda abused him iirc), but the point is basically the same.

Human designs are very ... typical of today,s children program s but the Digimon look like digimon
The episode is, as expected, very luch what you can expect from 1001 others.

I'm hearing Ishida within minutes of the first episode? Count me in.

Enjoyment: 3/5

I hope they dont drop the horror angle to this, I really like how they treated clockmon's attacks pretty horrifically for a kids anime.

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

I liked this! My friend suggested this to me. I've never watched anything digimon except for that one movie I saw as a kid. I am very interested in the idea of horror stories in a digimon package though. I think this was a nice introduction. Not super exciting, but enough to get me interested in how it will go from here.

I never watched Digimon before but I played it on NDS with the emulator. I think that this one is quite interesting. Let's see what will happen on the next episode :)

I think digimon era is already over..
I will just skip this one 🥴

 I don't want to ruin my own memories and gonna protect it..
They shoud have use other name beside "digimon" and think about new theme about monster..
Like pokemon or monster rancer..
