Digimon Tamers

This third season of Digimon is my favorite so far. It expands the non-battle portion of the show, focusing instead on character development and interaction. To me this makes for much more interesting viewing than simply concentrating on fighting.

Tamers really explores the relationships between between the Tamers and their Digimon partners, and between the Digimon themselves. The Digimon are presented as actual characters with feelings and motivations of their own, instead of just one dimensional bodyguards and sidekicks.

The English dubbing seems pretty good in this one as well. Guilmon and Renamon in particular sound very close to their original Japanese voices.

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.

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.

This one follows some time after the wonderful season 2,although the plot is not connected.It,s about 3 new kids,each with different purposes with there Digimon,until they meet the true enemys,and it isn't Hypnos,although they are nosy.Very good action,good drama,and a good plot,definetly for Anime or Digimon fans.

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.
