Woot the return of Nene and Jet-Mervamon~
Wow if we all could travel to foreign countries without the need of a passport like that, it'd be awesome LOL
Anyways masked stalker controlled by a digimon targetted Nene and Tagiru and co. helped to put an end to him
Love the songs Nene sang, both Twill's New world and Stand Up Nene version XD
Next epi: Tagiru lost his motivation and Gumdramon is in trouble

So, basically gumdramon became X5 by just equipping sparrowmon... and taiki and them where amazed by this?.. ok then.


Also, what happened to the previous episode where yuu stated he hadn't told his sister yet? and yet she sends a digimon to bring them there, and she already had her own digimon back?... Unless wisemon left instructions on how to use his machine, then how would they have their digimon back when it was being kept a secret from them?.. it wouldn't of been a secret if wisemon sent everyone back..

Guess Nene bringing them there as she's worried about the masked guy means she still don't know if Digimon are back to real world and causing problems. Glad to see her still with her Digimon too. With that, seems we're due for a Kiriha episode sometime.

These Xros Wars episodes are fast paced as always but that way, we see a lot of stories. Really fun episode. I wonder if they'd release those songs with Nene's version. :D

Talk about extremes. We have that very fast paced and well animated battle between Arresterdramon and Harpymon followed by a QUALITY gems like this:

I was discussing this with a friend the other day, and possibly the only logical explanation is that there is a reasonable time gap between this episode and the last one. Perhaps an off-screen conversation went something like this? :

Yuu: /beats around the bush. Oh hey by the way yeah we have Digimon and stuff again now

Nene: oh cool wait so I have a problem, can I get my Digimon back and maybe ask for your guys' help?

Yuu: oh sure cool I'll hook you up dawg

...or something along those lines. Obviously not in the way mentioned about, but...well, please account for creative differences.

In any case, I rather disliked the episode. Aside from the aerial battle, I pretty much thought that the entire thing was a waste of twenty-two minutes. While it was all well and good to learn why Nene wanted to become an idol in Hong Kong...wait, no, we didn't even learn that. We just learned that she apparently wanted to sometime before entering the Digital World (based on her attire), and she somehow fulfilled it sometime down the road.

Back to my point, what I was really expecting from this episode was an interaction between Yuu and Nene, perhaps her showing disapproval for her brother getting involved with the Digimon again. Maybe fear of another DarkKnightmon case? But nope! We get...this.

Perhaps my wording is a little harsh, but am I really the only one who is afraid of this season going all Adventure 02 on us? Actually, if I'm not the only one, then I'd urge everyone to go back and re-watch the last few minutes of the last episode of Adventure 02.

Nene sure looked good this episode! She's worthy of being an idol.

Although, I think her singing could use a slight improvement. I like the OP's voice better than Nene when singing.

would love to travel overseas for cheap that quickly with no passport...was anyone talking Chinese in there at all?

Y'know, no matter how many times I see it, GumdraMon's digivolution always looks painful to me.

Everyone going crazy for Mervamon for the obvious reasons lol

Meanwhile hearing Nene singing the old theme made me almost cry.
Can't lose if you don't play

I gotta agree with hakemo; I also feel like this was a waste of an episode. Sure we learned Nene and her Papa love each other and she wanted to be an idol in Hong Kong specifically, but really nothing beyond that. Not why Hong Kong (instead of S.Korea where it would make more sense...), not how, nothing between Nene and Yuu, nothing between Yuu and Papa, how Nene got her Digimon back... Things just happened, Tagiru gets the spotlight, and it's over.

Heck, I do think Nene's purpose was simply to give Tagiru a digimon to xros up with. Look how she didn't even bother to solve the mystery herself, doesn't ask Yuu about anything despite purposely bringing them over, and when she does come in... her digimon get their ass kicked in within a minute. Nothing but a crappy JetMervamon cameo.

Speaking of Mervamon, what this episode did to her was an insult. Quickly knocked out and she disappears off screen once they hit the ground. Ridiculous.

Biggest spit in the face to Mervamon... way to ruin this Digimon within a singular episode.
