Etemon! Another old school Digimon that I felt nostalgia from childhood.

Tbh, he is still quite charismatic and has a new friend in the new series. Good for him.

This episode was fucking hilarious bro. The jalapeno attack, the rapping, the over the top training arc for the digimon, lol. I love these slice of life style episodes lately. I would ideally like to get more of the story progression soon tho.

Yeah rap battle!

Is this the first time Ponchomon appear in anime? No one expect this irregular evolution at all!

A huge step up from the past few episodes.

The Digimon losing control of themselves were funny. Mimi continues to be best girl as per usual. Bad guys with actual goal and personality who aren't just moving sandbags (in fact, they aren't bad guys at all). Etemon is exactly like he was in the OG, just not evil.

The 2nd Armor evolution is here. Looks like all 8 of them will be getting one, corresponding to their crest. I can't get enough of Ponchomon's teeth lol.

Things are finally starting to get moving again as well.

I've been laughing for the past 15 minutes at just how stupid the whole concept behind this episode was but damn it was really entertaining. Mimi attempting Spanish words, an over the top rap battle, drugged Digimon, Ponchomon. At this point I don't even care where they are story wise, what the whole deal with the chip was, Tailmon's past, whatever. The series might just save itself by being funny on accident.

Not only was this episode legitimately entertaining, we finally have more personality from the characters, mimi being the best character as usual, an unexpected but very welcome new evolution, digimon that actually have personalities, and the episode was even well animated and consistent during some scenes. Plus this episode was actually funny lol.

This might actually be objectively one of the best episodes so far.

Etemon...one of the memorable OG Digimon. And Volcamon, the pretense of the rap-exercise, was a vastly improved episodic episode.

Seeing the Digimon go out of control was funny, a side-effect from the rap battle between Etemon and Volcamon, plus some data error. Even with their DigiEvolution, the sound waves are prohibiting their movement, so Mimi was smart to play along with both of them to try and diffuse the fight.

For Digimon to have their own unique personality, that's a rarity that you'll only see in small instances of the franchise.

Palmon's irregular evolution into Ponchomon, Yamato looking for Gabumon who left its coat behind, and turning both Etemon and Volcamon against each other, this was a spectacular episode.

With the data and Tailmon's memories lingering, the journey to FAGA continues.

Hahaha, that was one of the weirdest concert/music contest I've ever seen, especially how it bugged most digimons, that was fun to see, but well Mimi did great with Ponchomon, this one is so weird xDD

Mimi was always my favourite of the Digidestined so I absolutely love/ that she is objectively the best written character in this reboot. All of her episodes so far have been well written and emotional - then there was this one where they just threw up their hands and said "let's do the most nonsensical thing possible" xD

Can't be a coincidence the best episodes I remember are centered on Mimi and Palmon.

Great episode, very funny. Good to see Etemon again.

Mimi and Palmon are the best, this has to be my favorite episode, it was also funny to get broken Spanish instead of broken English for a change, we finally got new villains with an actual personality and the irregular evolution was unexpected and somewhat rewarding.

It really becomes a better show when Mimi is the protagonist, it should have been Mimi's Adventure instead of Taichi's Adventure.

Damn, another golden Mimi episode. She must be the writers' favorite since she keeps getting the best episodes.

I didn't comment on this show for a while cuz I wasn't in the mood due to my country's civil war but really, when they're slow, they really are slow with negligible filler episodes, huh? But this is one of the better ones cuz seeing Etemon as not a main villain is refreshing. And I didn't expect Palmon to side-evolve to Ponchomon so that's a plus too. Comedy bit is not that funny but I appreciate it. And wtf Gabumon? Did he just melt down the entire time during data chaos or what?

Checked the other thread about upcoming episodes too. Looks like they'll introduce MetalGarurumon in a non-serious, non-iconic random battle. That's kinda underwhelming...

I liked this episode for a change. All thanks to Etemon.

Then again, that was also the case for the original serie.

What a nostalgia episode. Seeing Etemon back, this time with a friend/rival to make the whole episode "entertainment"! I'm glad they kept his charismatic personality, though I miss his English voice dubbed of him sounding like Elvis Presley, but it was Mimi that stole the show. Palmon absorbing maracas data and gobbling up Patamon give heart of references/hints. Since, Patamon can armor digivolve into Ponchomon as well. Now, Palmon has access to it. Every time Mimi gets her episode, its always a delight. Listening to both her and Palmon speaking Spanish was cute.

Wow a good episode after a long time...
This is how Digimon supposed to be, Antagonist with a Personality.
This is how you write good entertaining story.

Etemon & Volcamon, Rap Battle!!!
I laughed so many times in this episode...

Amigo! Mimigo!
This episode was so ridiculous and hilarious.
I'm having fun.

This was one of the rare great episodes of this reboot :D
I laughed a lot!

I liked:
- the episode didn't take itself too seriously
- both "villains" actually had a personality
- the Digimon acting weird was actually done really well
- the evolution music stopping when Greymon fails to attack
- Birdramon running around was hilarious
- Tailmon actually acting like a normal cat while everything is escalating was really funny as well :D
- so was Palmons head flower eating Patamon
- Palmons "Let's party!"
- Ponchomons appearance

Having said that, this just makes me sad that they missed so many opportunities to give all the Digimon more evolutions. Ponchomon was the one I loved the most, Pegasmon was okay (but weird, cause Patamon just randomly gained access to an armor evolution) and Agumons second ultimate sucked big time imo - why didn't they use all those episodes without any new evolutions to give all the Digimon some irregular evolutions? If they did that, rushing to perfect levels wouldn't have been so bad.

Still a great episode tho! Mimi never disappoints :D

Genuinely fun episode filled with Engrish and Españoru probably one of the best episodes in Adventure:

Nice to see Agumon's Charizard Syndrome ease up here, giving the spotlight to someone else.

I believe so... I've only seen Ponchomon within the games so this is a welcomed irregularity.

I'm pretty sure Ponchomon appeared in the Digimon Tamers movie. The one where Takato visits his cousin.
