THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Finally the characters display some emotion other than mild poker face. At the first half I was worried it was gonna be similar to the last Omnimon episode but the second half really came through with Taichi and Hikari showing they care about what they're doing (somewhat). I dunno if it's the animation or what but most of the time it doesn't seem that way.

PS: What is up with Joe and Mimi? Are they going to do anything plot relevant soon or just goof around?

Finally they met, and thus the gang is complete now.

Can't wait to see Angewomon and possibly Nefertimon.

This episode was pretty nice to look at. Looking forward to more. Glad to see the crest of light showing itself before Tailmon shows itself.

Yay all the kids officially have their partners now. That fight sequence was dope, but man those brain creatures were weird as hell.

Quick dumb question, but this is my first time watching Digimon in Japanese. Grew up on the 4Kids version. Has it always been tailmon in Japanese instead of gatomon?

They could've saved the first WGM evolution for this episode and I would've been fanboying all over the floor for it, instead of being this salty prick who just can't let it go.

i was hoping SkullKnightmon ended up being this version’s Wizardmon lol
speaking of, i feel like the original did Hikari’s inclusion a little better. all the bits and pieces like Gatomon’s substory being a henchman turned partner and Wizardmon’s whole deal made it for a more engaging story. this one feels like “oh just drop Hikari here in this world and capture her for a bit”

The battle to take down DarkKnightmon and take back Hikari has begun and it was a fierce one but Taichi did it. He defeated it and took back his sister. That was sweet.

Hikari is finally together with Gatomon. Now I can't wait to see Angewomon.

We're officially halfway there...

DAYUM, the will of Milleniumon is resurrected again...and the battle enlarges on essentially the series' biggest scale so far.

Other than Mimi and Joe whose Digimon surrounding them is goofed up, Taichi, Takeru and Sora has caught onto SkullNightmon and Hikari, albeit the Chosen One for the opposite reason, for Milleniumon. The Vademon though, an echo-chamber if I can describe with careful words.

The fight to take back Hikari, I'd admit its kinda lackluster, but it serves to give the reason why Hikari is the final Chosen One with Tailmon (or Gatomon in the U.S. release) waiting for each other...in DarkKnightmon's stomach? For a lack of better words, I side with @dannymilk on this one.

Now finally, all the DigiDestined have their partners, and I'm particularly interested what will be going on with the 2nd half of the next 33 episodes.

the death of SkullKnightMon or DarkKnightMon is lame he just sacrifice himself for Milleniumon there

I don't get it. Is SkullKnightmon dark-evolved Tailmon? Or is Tailmon 'inside' SkullKnightmon? Whatever it is, her appearance felt sudden and forced. And Hikari was like "I don't give a single fuck about you, Taichi" when she was captured but then "I believe in you" so fast lol

Pegasmon is an "Armor" level Digimon which would normally require a special item called Digimental/Digi-Egg to evolve to it. They didn't disclose this information for some reason. I wonder why.

We saw how powerful Angemon was. So will Angewoman also have super powers in this show as a Holy Digimon?

Also, the crests finally appeared. The crest of light was shining when Hikari met Tailmon. Hikaru’ s name also means light in Japanese. Furthermore, the crest of courage was shining on Metal Greymon. Nice display of sibling courage from Tai rescuing his younger sister.

I imagine a new threat will show up, Angewomon will kick its ass and the rest of the show until like the very end it will be only Nefertimon just like Pegasmon.

The episode was okay. The fight was really boring tho, which is suprising considering this reboot seems to prioritize the fight scenes over everything else. The episode was also visually uninteresting cause the landscape was as plain as could be.

I liked:
- I really like that they gave Patamon a way to fight without bringing out Angemon, especially cause it seems to be even more of a deus-ex-machina in this reboot than in the original. Pegasmon looks cool and is really fitting... too bad they didn't bother to make its appearance make sense
- Tailmon is finally here, yay

I disliked:
- what the hell is wrong with Hikari in this reboot? She's about to be sacrificed and the enemy tries to kill her brother and she's floating there and smiling like "cool stuff dude". She cared more about this random light (she couldn't know it was Tailmon) than her own family and then she suddenly cares again, because she "believed in him"? Huh?
- I'm kinda sad that @Skyguardian wasn't right with his theory of Tailmon being Dark Maildramon cause that would've been really cool and a great idea imo

While the Hikari rescue arc in this was definitely way worse then the one in the original, it was an improvement to the previuos episodes imo. The next episode also looks interesting (the scenery looks really nice!), so I hope it keeps improving from here on.
Hopefully the kids will reunite soon.

Edit: I'm slowly starting to believe the "the kids are the same as in the og, but lost their memories" theory too btw. The way Tailmon talked to Hikari would fit into that narrative.

What @StormxNightmare said about Hikari, I must echo. But, y'know, more passionately. Her character is an even worse plot device than before and I dunno they managed to do it, but they did. She literally has nothing to her than her maybe special ability. Worst yet, we're supposed to feel tense with the whole fight and the courage Taichi displays to save his little sister except...

SHE WENT HER "KIDNAPPER"! Not once did she complain about the situation. Not once did she even THINK about her brother. Not once did she worried over, well, anything. Not once did she try to reassure or signal she believed in Taichi until it was mandatory to give him the spotlight. Not once did she even hint at that the one who was calling her was inside Skullknightmon.

The reboot didn't even TRY to attempt the set-up or foreshadowng for any of this.

So low effort that I found myself more pissed I had to watch this when Mimi's side-adventure looks more exciting.

Speaking of... wtf is this reboot doing? We're gonna get another motherf-ing episode with Taichi and Sora (+ Takeru and now, Hikari) so Tailmon can evolve, but what about the other three? Is this reboot ever going to have them meet up with the others? Or meet up together? Or do much of anything without the plot demanding it? Isn't Yamato supposed to be the co-protag? Does Jyou's character have purpose?

Is Taichi just gonna have batches of episodes with each CC separately before the finale? But it's sure looking like it.

To be fair, it's not like Sora has been getting much spotlight or anything at all. She didn't even have an episode centered around her like Takeru had last week. She just joined Taichi to be in the background (and eliminate the less important enemies) while he does all the actual fighting/important stuff.
It's still better than what Yamato/Mimi/Koushiro/Jyou are getting ofc, but it's still extremely underwhelming. Sora has always been my favorite character (I know you don't really like her haha), but she's so boring in this reboot (and Piyomon/Birdramon is just... useless? She always has to evolve into Garudamon to even get anything done at all and I'm so angry cause of that) :x

I was assuming stopping Milleniummon from ressurecting would be its own arc, but if Taichi can beat super duper DarkKnightmon and almost-revived MoonMilleniummon in one hit then where do we even go from there?
The Rogers at the end going "aw, how lame" was hilarious.

Takeru's ep was an evolution ep, tho. Both times Takeru had spotlight was related to evolution, if I remembering right. And wasn't Yamato more or less doing the same thing before he got ditched? xD Koushiro, too in the beginning. In fairness to Sora, she isn't the outliner this time around.

I totally understand! I don't think Mimi nor Jyou'll have any special role beyond being Taichi's side-jig if they get a chance. I'm just seeing a recent pattern of Taichi + secondary character who helps him out. Sadly, we're pretty much at the point where they're ditching anything pre-Perfect. How they're beefing up Garudamon, at the expense of the other forms, remains me of how the anime beefed up Metalgreymon - maybe Sora's Ultimate ep is soon.

I agree, sora felt so relatable in digimon 1999, she was a nice kid with some mother issues and then later she overcome that cuz she realized her mother care for her, thereford she really was worthy of the love emblem... here, she is nothing... she is a background character for taichi adventure , what was even the porpuse of this remake if is going to be taichi alone doing everthing ?

Oh they finally met. So it seems Tailmon was kinda like a "corrupted" Digimon or something that's why she turned into Darkknightmon and the main reason why Hikari doesn't seem afraid at all of her.

Looks like next episode is gonna be Angewomon time.
