    Digimon Tamers is better...

    I think Digimon Tamers is better than the earlier series. The drawings and plot and summaries are better. And it's more like realities. Look at Digimon Adventure 02 and Digimon Adventure, they have DARK CAVES and DARK WORLDS but we don't have that in reality. While in Digimon Tamers, they're just depressed without "darkness" and "dark worlds" appearing around them..so I say it's more realistic. And more imaginative..and detailed..spending more time on it..

    I like it .

    I wasn't too fond of it at first, but it got better. The last show of the first season of Digimon was so very sad though, but then after watching the second season it's not so sad any more.

    The second season was better than the first ( Ken and Wormmon...wormmon sooo cute ) But then it was sooo sad with wormmon and the Digimon Empirer and every thing but in the end it was my favorite season. BUT....

    The third season came out I didn't like this one at all at first but... it changed now it's my favorite season of all.....the ending is WAY too sad though (so far anyway) But I love Terriermon he is sooo cute :) Well anyway every season keeps getting better 1st was okay, the 2nd very good love it, the 3rd better than the second love it too.

    Deffinetly one of FOX's better shows....now if they would just put it back on weekdays. Two thumbs up. 5 stars

    And I don't think Pokemon stands quite up with Digimon though.

    Not as good as the original

    Being a big fan of the first series of Digimon, and then the second, involving all new kids, I thought this show would be great. But I was very disapointed. The show as a whole is lacking. For starters the voices of some of the characters are not too convincing. The human characters are much harder to warm to, one being completely cold hearted, another is just plain dull and the third annoying, although the bad guy does have potential. The Digimon themselves seem wrong. They appear to be more closely related to the first set of Pokemon, or the monsters in Monster Rancher, they are far to humanoid in appearence or not strange enough. It is as if the artists could not be bothered to use their imagination any more after blowing a few cogs on the first two series. The plot is very repetetive and dull, the writers take far too long to explain anything in the story line, there are odds and ends just left floating.

    I would suggest giving this show a try if you are a fan of Digimon or Pokemon and all the modern anime, but it is not at all impressive.

    Better than you first think

    At first glance, "Digimon Tamers" comes off as a barely interesting tale with characters who aren't nearly as easy to sympathize with as those of the original. The saying that first impressions are often wrong has perhaps, never been more right.

    As it progresses, the show reveals itself as an addicting, exciting, and oh-so darker story than the (excellent) original. There are moments when this series suddenly jumps off the 'kiddie' train and presents drama that can surprise, anger, or otherwise touch viewers. Matters such as depression, self-evaluation, and of course, the bonds between the Digimon and the humans are all done quite well as every character becomes a little more interesting. In addition, this incarnation has the best written romance yet, and I found myself rooting for the two key players involved almost the whole time. The directing and battles are also decent, and some of the humor is actually funny.

    When all is said and done, if nothing else, "Tamers" is certainly one of those stories you'll remember--and for good reason.

    The most dramatic season.

    I admit that I had shunned Digimon Tamer at first. I didn't want to see it if it didn't have the original characters. But being the overly faithful person that I am I gave it a try.

    I watched the first episode on Saturday. It really didn't seem as interesting at first. I watched for a while and became more enticed with each episode.

    As the show progressed, it became more dramatic and developed the characters more and more. There was anger, aggression, romance, and love much more developed than in the first two seasons. All the characters changed for the better by the end of the show.

    When the season ended, I found myself much more emotional then I thought I would be. As I felt when season 2 ended, I was just a emotional to see the Tamers going.

    First impressions aren't everything. Give the season a chance and you'll see that it is much more addicting and dramatic that it's predecessors.
