Dejimon Teimâzu (2001)
The best season out of all of them. (Only small spoilers, not really worth noting)
Hey, this is Blackguilmon here. You may know me from such forums as With The Will, The Digiport, and DATS. Now that I have watched the first four seasons, and some of the fifth season with subtitles, I feel I can now truly review this season to compare it to the rest.
First of all, the ending was the best out of all seasons because it was sad but had a silver lining that suggested that Takato got to keep his promise to Guilmon, the one he made saying that he would come play with him again. I was crying during Takato's ending monologue, the voice actor did a wonderful job sounding depressed.
Compared to the other season endings...
Season one is the only ending that comes close to Tamers heart-felt ending. They had to leave their friends behind, and you didn't know if they would ever see each other again. It was sad, but not as sad as Tamers. Why? Because, Tamers not only developed the children, it actually developed the digimon as well as the adults for once.
Season two ended and I was really disappointed with it. It was a really happy ending, but I could have done without them all being grown up. I also didn't like the fact that all the children had digimon, it made the original eight kids seem less special, as if just about anyone could have saved the digital world. They also didn't really develop the characters or digimon real well.
Season Four... I'm indifferent. It wasn't really happy or sad. They developed a bond with their spirits, but the bond didn't really carry through the screen and into my heart like season three and one. I just... Can't decide what I think about this ending...
All in all, Tamers had a darker, more realistic plot. I'm watching the Japanese version now and I'm liking it more and more with each episode. So much was cut out when it was dubbed into the American version, things that are, granted, sometimes not good for children to see. It was, after all, a children's show in America.
My favorite character was Guilmon. Guilmon first won my heart over when he digivolved to Growlmon and defeated Devidramon. Then, afterwords, Takato became scared of Growlmon. You know what Growlmon did? He started crying. A gigantic dinosaur the size of a small condo is crying because he scared a little boy. I also loved his childish personality. So far, my favorite part of the show is in the Japanese version, Guilmon and Renamon are together and Terriermon walks up and sings a Japanese equivalent of "Guilmon and Renamon, sittin' in a tree" or something, and they both beat the stuffing out of him. It was taken out of the American version of course.
Overall, Tamers was the best season in my opinion, and I'm glad that the newly made forums, DATS, is subbing the Japanese version for all to enjoy.
