Digimon: Digital Monsters

Digimon Adventure is an animated action adventure TV series developed by Toei Animation that follows a group of young children as they are taken into a parallel world called the Digital World as the potential saviors of the two worlds (their reality and the Digital World). With their arrival in this new reality, each of the children are given a Digimon, or Digital Monster, that has been predestined to become their partners in battle, utilizing devices known as Digivices. Uprooted and transplanted in a strange new world with a rather large destiny to uphold, the kids find themselves struggling with their roles while battling the evil Digimon who wants to rule over the Digital World, often controlling the more powerful and evolved Digimon by black gears. Tai Kamiya is a stubborn and thick-headed leader who quickly bonds with his dinosaur-like Digimon, Agumon. Tai often clashes with the caring loner, Matt Ishida, who is protected by the fiercely attached wolf-like Gabumon. Sora Takenouchi, with her funny bird-like Biyomon, remains hidden, watching and helping the others though the girly Mimi with her plant-like Palmon thinks Mimi’s just a figment of her imagination. The young genius and computer expert Izzy often relies on his knowledge of the digital world and his half robotic/half insect Tentomon in order to figure out who the evil Digimon is, though he often clashes with the worrywart and oldest of the group Joe, who calms a little bit with the seal-like Gomamon. It’s an adventurous journey for the six children as they clash with each other and other Digimon in their quest to save two worlds. MORE
