It's just embarrassing to compare the two.<br /><br />The thing about the original Adventure is that its first quarter is mostly bland and slow, but the series rewarded patience, kicked it up a notch, and hit its peak during the Myotismon arc. It did this by making you care about its characters, by making its villains actual personalities with discernible motives, and by becoming increasingly unwilling to pull its punches and dig deep in the process. It even had a discernible sense of escalation, with occasional breathers. That makes up for a lot of repetitive stock footage and low-budget fight scenes.<br /><br />Whereas the neo-Adventure: is pretty much just flashy visuals and next to nothing else. This series doesn't reward patience at all. It was blatantly written on the fly, and written under a clear "who cares so long as we throw in a new cool Digimon?" outlook. Its characters have no character, all including its finale villains have less personality than a random RPG encounter, and by refusing to do anything with genuine consequences, it robs the fights of all but the most banal "save the world because that's what we do" meaning. Even Patamon and Gatomon don't get anywhere near the development teased here and there.<br /><br />The fact is: it HAS to lean on the nostalgia of its predecessor to get any real credit. There is no way in hell the Digimon series would have taken off if THIS had been the way to start it all.<br /><br />I'm going to go out on a limb and say: I think even Frontier was better than this. It tried more actual storytelling, like Koji and Koichi, the Celestial lore, the spirit-against-spirit scrambles, some feints at character development for its main cast, villains with actual personalities and motives. And while it's not good at depth either, at least its meaningless repetitive fights against boring villains were largely confined to the Royal Knights arc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086806519830822483.post-20548639390408609262021-10-01T18:00:13.121-05:002021-10-01T18:00:13.121-05:00I've already poured much heart into multiple r...I've already poured much heart into multiple rantings. But the animation, simplistic story. And well our characters running into obstacles and being Mary sues are a nice feeling. (For a brief moment). I'll definitely look out for your next set of posts. I promise they won't be anger inducing. Ghost Game will be cool to check.

Essentially it boils down to having an even younger target audience than the previous Digimon series. It's not meant for people our age who expect a little more depth.<br /><br />Personally, I'm okay with it. It had good ratings and if it allowed a new generation of kids to get into Digimon I'm happy.<br /><br />I don't know if I'm alone in this, but I enjoyed the second half of the season a little more than the first. It allowed the cast to bond a little more properly with the Digital World and gave them better motivation to fight for it. Also, it gave us a few enjoyable episodes, even if it got tiresome after a while.<br /><br />I look forward to Ghost Game now. I'll miss your blog posts, but I completely understand your reasons for putting it on hold for now. Like the previous comment said, here's to hoping.

I only popped in whenever I heard a particularly wacky episode happened but even then that was just a small novelty rather than something to get me back into the show proper. If this season was what we had to get to get more (and hopefully better) digimon shows later down the line then I will at least be thankful of it for that.<br /><br />Here's hoping.
