Digimon Series 6
 
http://i42.*.com/52lvk2.jpg

The goggles are back!

Essentially once known as Digimon Around, and now simply Shin Digimon, which is a title that will likely change, the new series will start this summer. Looks like it'll take a different approach to the standard series by only starting out with a single human who has a few different partners that all merge into a single Digimon.

Merge into a single Digimon... Why the hell am I thinking Power Rangers?

Ah well, I've yet to watch all of Savers - But this one looks interesting :3

Taichi April 5th, 2010 9:29 AM

YES! Digimon is back! I'm just sad to see the resemblance between the protag and Davis/Daisuke. And no Female? She'll probably come later...

WKnite April 5th, 2010 9:33 AM

It looks alright, although I hate the look of the beetle and the wolf looks very identical to Tiger from MonsterRancher

EDIT:
I say this as a fan of the series since the beggening, but its gone downhill since the end of Tamers IMO

I was just reading about the older series' today!

Sounds decent. I really really REALLY hope Disney don't foul up the dub.

Combining?

Does this mean there won't be Champion/Ultimate/Mega forms of it? :O

Oh, and YAY GOGGLES! 8DDDDD

If only. :'D

Anyways, I don't know how I feel about the single character approach. Of course, they could have just not conceived other characters yet so they're only showcasing one for now, but I feel the cast should definitely consist of more than one human / Digidestined for me to even bother giving it a glance.

WKnite April 5th, 2010 9:49 AM

Id imagine the digimon stay inside that oddly-resemblind-dinosaur-king digivice otherwise hes walking around with 10-15 digimon lol

...my thoughts exactly >_>;

I'm not to sure what I think about this yet...but what the heck, it's Digimon, they can't do it wrong *inb4FrontierorSavers*. I'll only be watching the subs, though. Disney failed with Frontier and slaughtered Savers-I mean, Data Squad.

Edit: My bad, Studiopolis, not Disney.

Disney didn't dub Season 5, they only had the broadcasting rights.

No, Toei produced it. Disney has nothing to do with the creation of Digimon, anyway.

Disney had nothing to do with the dubbing of Savers, that was all Toei.

Does anyone else think that Starsword is awesome?

Silver April 5th, 2010 12:37 PM

Going by the poster in the first post, that protagonist looks a lot like Tai from season 1. Anyways, interesting to see. Digimon's sorta fallen off my radar since season 3. I should probably go watch the other seasons.

I think the protag looks like Davis/Daisuke from Season 2. You should watch Season 5 aka Digimon Savers. Skip Season 4 or just watch it after 5.

And for the last time people....DISNEY DID NOT DUB DIGIMON SAVERS/DATA SQAUD. TOEI DID IT. DISNEY JUST HAD BROADCASTING RIGHTS!!!

RedJ April 5th, 2010 1:34 PM

First off: I edited my post for a reason. Yes, I originally thought Disney dubbed it. Then I did a bit of research and found that it was, in fact, Studiopolis.

Second: Toei does not dub anime. They produce them, yes. But they are not involved in the dubbing process at all.

Now then, let's get back on topic, shall we?

I wasn't referring to you. Just anybody that thinks Disney actually had something to due with Savers. Yeah your right it was Studiopolis, my fault. They were Sensation Animation or something like that when they had Frontier.

I know I'm not the only one who's mad that they don't see Coronamon there. That's my favorite Digimon! They better have an Olympus Twelve plot then. Atleast I'll see Apollomon them. lol

Toei handled all of the localization involved in the dubbing, things like changing the names of characters and the series itself, that was all Toei and they personally okayed the voice actors. They had a bigger role in the dubbing of Savers than with any other series. I recall someone working on the dub, Nimoy, I think, who said Toei basically controlled the dubbing process outside of the scripts he wrote. Of course I could totally be remembering that last bit wrong, but I know for certain that things like name changes all around were because of Toei.

Ok.


Anyway, I don't like that new lead Digimon there. He looks weird.

If there really is going to be only one main human character, then I'll be less optimistic about this season than I was about Frontier and the whole humans-into-digimon thing. If they remove the team aspect of the show, it'll pretty much get rid of one of the show's few remaining graces: the character dynamics. I don't see how they'll pull this off if the above speculation is correct.

Of course, at this point, it is still speculation. All we have to go on is one early picture, which is hardly anything to derive certainties from. Also:

My knowledge of Japanese is next to non-existent, but I'm pretty sure "Shin Digimon" just means "New Digimon." I don't think anyone's claiming that's the title of the series. If the title actually ends up being "Digimon Around," I hope the future American distributor finds a better one.

Going by the picture, I'm not optimistic about this one, but then again, I hadn't been optimistic about any of the Digimon seasons that followed Adventure 02, and none of them were all that bad. (Tamers was actually my favorite.) I'll still watch this new one, of course.

I feel exactly the same. I really hope they don't go with a single human compared to a team. I also don't like the whole idea of several Digimon merging into one. I liked the 2 Digimon merging into one back in the day, but more than that... meh. Either way, I hope it's better than the last season. I watched one episode and couldn't continue any further. :/

Woot, new Digimon series.

I actually am not keen on the single protagonist thing either, so let's hope that the speculation isn't true. Aside from that, the character design looks better than the last few seasons. However, I must say that I don't really like the look of the new Digimon. If this series can get anywhere close to the awesomeness Zero-Two was, I'll be happy.

MAN, those Digimon are weird -_-
