Adventure: (2020) Episode 59: Bolt, HerakleKabuterimon

In this episode, in the deepest, most subtle metaphor imaginable to highlight and empower Koshiro, his crest test turns out to be a literal Test of Knowledge.

Adventure: (2020) Episode 42: King of Inventors, Garbemon

In this episode, if you thought Koshiro was a badass with a computer, wait until you see him with a rubber tube and tempura absorbent.

Adventure: (2020) Episode 36: Operation Satellite Sniper

In this episode, Koshiro waits until the very last minute to deal with his pet crisis in order to make sure BlitzGreymon gets a random cameo.

Adventure: (2020) Episode 26: Break Through the Sea Monster Barricade

In this episode, Koshiro, Hikari, and Taichi do their typical things: hacking a solution to the crisis, magically whisking away to another world, and nearly getting his ass killed again for stupid reasons.

Adventure: (2020) Episode 14: The Kings of the Insects Clash!

In this episode, it’s amazing how quickly getting outmaneuvered and surrounded brings out the real personalities where nobody can think straight, everyone’s whining, and faulty technology leaves you paralyzed.

Adventure: (2020) Episode 05: The Holy Digimon

In this episode, we’re horrified to discover that the cool story that’s been more or less carrying the show really does have essentially the same plot as Digimon Frontier.

Adventure: (2020) Episode 01: TOKYO DIGITAL CRISIS

In this episode, knowing we’d be overcome with the urge to compare and contrast every little thing this reboot does to the original series opener, at least it has the foresight to be objectively better in every single way.

tri. Episode 25: Future, Part Four

In this episode, you’ve seen Hikari’s special ability save the day! You’ve seen Koushiro’s special ability save the day! Now watch what happens when you put them together!

tri. Episode 23: Future, Part Two

In this episode, the subplots with Maki and the 02 kids are reopened en route to the emotionally satisfying conclusions they deserve. Or at least they’re brought up by other characters. Which is an improvement.

tri. Movie #3: Confession [Dub]

In this movie, with everybody too hesitant to speak and everybody else too hesitant to ask questions, no wonder all the pressure’s on Izzy to sort out the answers.

tri. Episode 09: Confession, Part One

In this episode, an important character introduction, light foreshadowing and a surprising amount of talk about the 02 kids get overlooked because Joe apparently got laid.

tri. Episode 03: Reunion, Part Three

In this episode, the gang tries picking up the pieces and making sense of what's happening. They do this by picking fights, crushing on each other, and light software development.

Digimon: The Movie Part 2: Our War Game

In this movie, a malicious bug wrecks the internet and Izzy's in a race against time to stop it. It's basically Summer Wars without that obscure card game.

Adventure Episode 49: The Crest of Light

In this episode, a little girl gets possessed by spiritual forces and entices monsters to do her bidding. Isn't that the plot of The Exorcist?

Adventure Episode 38: Prophecy

In this episode, the ultimate weapons against VenomMyotismon are forged by combining the virtues of hope, light and shounen ai.

Adventure Episode 36: City Under Siege

In this episode, Joe's goddamn action hero act finally pays off. Matt and Sora try it and are far less successful.

Adventure Episode 31: The Eighth Digivice

In this episode, Tai's cat manages to get a nightclub destroyed and throws off everybody's scent at the same time. More importantly- Izzy's mom has got it going on!

Adventure Episode 24: No Questions, Please

In this episode, Izzy turns in his curiosity and loses the ability to question anything. We're still free to ask the one big question- what the hell was that all about?

Adventure Episode 19: The Prisoner of the Pyramid

In this episode, some thrilling plot twists and philosophical questions about digital avatars battle strange dubbing errors and suspect animation. It's a good fight.

Adventure Episode 10: A Clue From The Digi-Past

In this episode, Mimi somehow goes the whole length without slapping anybody. Plenty of deserving candidates, but not one of them gets a glove across the face.
