Meramon's design, the fact that he can actually talk, and the issue with the Black Gear made him instantly more memorable than the generic monsters who endangered our heroes in the previous three episodes. Sora's also a lot of fun to watch in this one. The dub yet again gave a weak script for this one. That "We're lucky kids!" part? Not what Sora originally said. She was DENYING the possibility that the Digimon were their guardian angels, because that was just a silly idea to her. In general, the script fucked up Sora's characterization here - she's very focused on being self sufficient and providing for everyone, all on her own, and she's friendly without being "buddy buddy" with anyone. So Biyomon's differing position and demeanor was constantly annoying her. Turning Sora into a warm, friendly, optomistic team player with no real problem with Biyomon killed the central internal conflict of the episode and made a lot of Sora's later character focus moments make no sense to viewers, you included, as of episode 26. Just...really awful job, Saban.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17081683749635084337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086806519830822483.post-52203005277565959022014-01-20T21:41:47.029-06:002014-01-20T21:41:47.029-06:00Was anyone else ever confused about the number of ...Was anyone else ever confused about the number of Yokomon? The village looks like it could hold a few dozen (maybe a hundred), there's about two hundred who roll out the welcome wagon, well-over a thousand charge off the cliff, and then were back to under two hundred at dinner. Makes writing a rewrite of the battle scene really screwy.JediMasterDraconoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086806519830822483.post-16920574144326114642013-05-10T15:56:37.648-05:002013-05-10T15:56:37.648-05:00Wizardmon's the same right?Wizardmon's the same right?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04983900206176926098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086806519830822483.post-57298725596790615182011-05-29T14:21:59.044-05:002011-05-29T14:21:59.044-05:00Was anyone else FREAKED THE HELL OUT by the fact t...Was anyone else FREAKED THE HELL OUT by the fact that Meramon's mouth was STITCHED SHUT?
