A sad parody of Pokemon, although neither of them are good. In futile attempts to capture the minds of little kids, it's corrupt otherwise successful little munchkins, although the subject matter alone will make the person with an iq greater than that of a rock laugh. A bunch of violent chiapets that temporarily evolve into barry bonds and "My little Pony" at the same time when pissed. those who watch it need to get a life, lest ur under the age of 9 (give kids a break, come on. Obviously Chris Rock, etc. are better shows, but they're just little smurf pplz, nothing else to watch). Anywho, it is a show that should be avoided at all costs. Equivilent to day-time television soap operas.

Starting as a way to capitalize on the other massive trend of virtual pets, Digimon didn’t take long before it became what is probably one of the biggest Pokémon rip-offs in existence. Digimon is about digital monsters (get it?) that come in contact with kids who then help them defend their world from evil forces. These Digimon have the ability to evolve into bigger, badder creatures to help them fight. Sound familiar?
It’s almost as if Digimon wears its Pokémon plagiarism on its sleeve. Look at the name! They’re pretty much saying if you like Pokémon, come check us out! Then throw in a ton of adorable monsters that evolve into other forms and are cared for by a group of kids, and you get a recipe for a cash cow built on a pile of unoriginal ideas.

The 3rd installment in the Digimon tv series, Digimon Tamers took place mostly in the Real World (Shinjuku) and revolved mostly around three Tamers (the term digidestined was dropped). Chiaka J. Konaka (author of Serial Experiments Lain, Alice in Cyberland etc) wrote the third season.
Unlike the previous two, there is no connection with Adventure and 02, other than them being ackknowledge as a franchise in the Tamer's universe.
It should be noted that Tamers uses actual locations, using the entire area of Shinjuku for the anime and several buildings, streets, parks, a school and homes. Also to be noted is the sharp difference in the appearance of the digital world. No longer "fluffy and sparkly" the Digital World is beautifully animated, combining CGI's with artistry to create an appealing visual.
Digimon Tamers at its core challenges the existance of Artifical Life and the potential dangers it poses to humanity. It deals with digital genocide, depression, suicide, neglect, hints of addiction, and the maturity of characters. Digimon Tamers is frequently noted as the darkest of the series yet Chiaka J. Konaka makes it enjoyable for all ages and still makes it a series thats truly worth watching.

The last eighty-four episodes of the anime series Digimon Adventure are far better then any equivalent stretch of any television series, though many fools do not realize this.

The fourth season of Digimon Digital monsters.
Although it is highly criticized by fans saying it ruined the formula of Digimon, Frontier still gives us memorable moments.
Season Four features 5 kids Takuya, Tommy, J.P., Zoey, and Koichi.
The Fourth season is criticized because the 5 kids do not get their own partners but yet become a Digimon through a process called "Spirit Evolution."
