Digimon Ghost Game, 02 on MAL

Always a pleasure playing this game. Will there be a digimon adventure 3?

Finally something that's not adventure- *sees next picture* ok at least it's not tai and his friends again (?)

maybe i should give adventure reboot a chance though but it seems so boring. the new digimon cameos are cool, sure, but the last plot i enjoyed was appmon. which is not adventure.

I'm hesitantly keen for Ghost Game. The poster is giving me faint Tamers vibes so maybe it'll actually be decent.

I have to say if Ghost Game (just basing it on appearances) has the same tone as Applimon then im already going to think its dogshit lol that show felt like i was watching something made for Nick Jr unironically

The 02 cast finally getting their time in the sun! :D

Ghost Game looks potentially interesting.

I'm in a minority that's really enjoying Adventure 2020, but I'm also glad they're moving on to something new, non-Adventure related after this. I'm just glad there's gonna be a new Digimon series so soon after the current one ends at all.

I'll have to wait and see on the Adventure 02 movie. Didn't like Tri whatsoever, but Last Evolution Kizuna was alright and a fitting enough ending. I have a lot of nostalgia for 02 and its cast though so I am curious about what it will bring.

Yeah I think as it's own thing Adventure 2020 is actually good, people just compare it too much to the original.

They're going to ruin Last Evolution Kizuna's ending, aren't they? I know 02's ending is still canon but I would rather prefer LEK never got a sequel at all since the ending of that movie is already perfect enough for the Adventure series.

Not going to hype about this ghost thing especially after knowing how terrible Xros Wars, Tri., Appsmon and the Adventure reboot was (LEK is the only good Digimon media that were released in recent years).

I'll watch it but my expectations are not high.

At least Ghost Game isn't an Adventure sequel/reboot/bullshit this time around.

If they scrap the 02 ending epilogue or at least hint at it with this movie, then all will be right with the world.

Why the fuck did Yolei end with Ken.

Ghost Game has a chance of being good by virtue of not being Adventure.
My expectations for the movie are low, but I may watch it if it doesn't rely too heavily on nostalgia.

I wasn't a fan of the Digimon Adventure reboot, but I will give Digimon Ghost Game a shot. Digimon Ghost Game kind of sounds similar to Digimon Tamers.

I won't say no to a good Digimon story, but I really hope the new movie finally bridges the gap between the main story and the epilogue from 02. In previous movies, the 02 cast was very underutilized and several plotlines were left unresolved.

Minus adventure tri and this reboot, which is meh.. I haven't watched Digimon since savers, I think imma watch ghost game, and definitely 02s tri

Aug 2, 2021 6:40 AM by EcchiGodMamster

as a new fan i will watch them

I'm always down for a new Digimon series. And I am glad about the new 02 movie too, I think the Tri series did a major dirty on the 02 crew.

Aug 1, 2021 10:41 PM by DiabloAwesome

I'll proly watch I think.
