Then with seasion two and three and four and five and six.The bloopers are hilarouse!!!! HA HA HA! Why is the power! Can we just call me bob/.Kabuteerimon sounds lik kabuto and kabutops. It's just nice seing the File island seriers agian back in the old days. The last two eps feuture my faverit digimon;Patamon and favrote champion;Angemon.

Summary: Probably The Best Underrated Series
Review:

When it first came out, I was skeptical. I did think it was going to be a Pokemon clone as many other type shows were coming out. However, I was pleasantly surprised. Now with the show spanning four seasons (with only the first two connecting), it makes me appreciate more the greatness that is Digimon. I have to admit that the new seasons just do not live up to my enjoyment of the first two seasons. I felt it had better flow, better depth, and much better characters. The whole cast was very likeable and whether that was due to Saban's part in casting great voices or not, I commend them with that. It is sad to not be able to hear the Japanese counterpart or see it un-edited but it is understandable and I will take what I can get.

More about the show. The first series starts out with seven kids at a summer camp: Tai (Taichi), Izumi (Izzy), Sora, Jo, Mimi, Matt (Yamato), and his brother TK (Takeru). Unknownst to them but that was where they would embark on a journey of epic proportions (to be cliche). They see these lights sparkling in the sky like the aurora borealis and then they get their digivices, mysterious handheld machines that help them with their digimons' evolutions and get transported to the Digital World. They all land in slightly different places and waiting for them were their own respective Digimon. They got no time to rest as one mean digimon was there to put pressure on them. The series goes on with MANY plot twists, new evolutions, and amazing themes of courage and friendship. It might seem cliche and cheesy but it really touched me and it was all done in a very ingenious way.

What compelled me to write this review was seeing that others shared my view on digimon. I really hope what people get out of this review is to at least try watching the series. Rent or borrow this DVD, watch the new episodes on TV on UPN (season 4), which shows some promise. Though now that it seems that nothing is going on DVD, much less any home release, I feel a need to buy this DVD finally so that I can indulge in the nostalgia once again, .. and actually many times more.

Summary: Digimon - Season 1 DVD
Review: A must pick for you digi fans with a DVD player. 13 episodes with 4 that have not been released on video as of this date. I picked up all the video's but there has been a large gap of episodes from one video to the next. This video has all the episodes up to and including Angemon's fight with Devimon. I suppose they will release the crest saga soon after. Get this DVD it is a good buy and great fun for your whole digi family.

Summary: The Show Which Started My Anime Craze
Review: Ah, Digimon! My favorite show growing up!

I will be honest, when the show first popped up, I didn't watch it. It roused my curiousity, and I very much wanted to watch it. However, my elder siblings repeatedly told me not to watch it, because it was Anime, and Anime was (apparently) stupid. And thusly I allowed myself to believe it was so. However, one day while flipping through the channels, I came across Digimon (the episode I now know is called "Home Away From Home"). I was so caught off guard by it, that by the time the episode was over all I could think was "Whoah..." It was more intricate than I had been led to believe. I instantly fell in love with it, and followed it with the intensity of the deranged (lol) afterwards. I managed to drag my sister into it too, unintentionally of course. She spotted me watching it, and wondered what the heck I was watching. On that day, she became as deranged with it as I was.

Seasons three and four were disappointments to me. Season three was one big crying fest (even though Guilomon(sp?) was so darn cute, to me anyway), and Season Four had lost touch with the friendship between human and Digimon partner.

As for Pokemon... that show doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as Digimon. Pokemon is, in a word, SAPPY. Each episode I've seen ends with a WAY too cheesy goodbye, and that really stupid narrator-person. Seriously, it's an insult to Digimon to be called a copy-cat of Pokemon.

So, Digimon, with its intricate storylines and plots in seasons one and two, and the wonderful characters and personalities, is an outstanding show; a rare gem that the world doesn't see much of anymore.

Summary: At last!
Review: An episode collection WORTH BUYING! Most Digimon tapes only carry three episodes, but this carries the ENTIRE DEVIMON SAGA! Along with "Digi-bloopers" which were released during the myotismon saga of the first season! Of course, I think they are missing some... (To bad they couldn't do those things for 02...) If only the snowballmon/snowmanmon commercial was recorded on this thing. Also, to those who think it is, it is NOT a pokemon clone.

I suggest you get this. It has the adventure that started the entire Digimon craze, and will most likely never be seen ever again! And if they ever do start showing these episodes again, It won't be for a VERY long time.

Again, get this! ...

Now if only they included the two apocolamon episodes, the final fight between the digidestined and the forces of evil. Or maybe not, because 02 continues from 01. (03 and 04 do not focus on the digidestined, but tamers and legendary warriors. Those seasons stink.)

Also, if you like this, you'll most likely love the digimon movie. Anyways, I hope you buy this, and have fun!

Summary: Almost
Review: Are late 20 somethings supposed to like digimon?
Well, I do and have been watching it since season one on fox. Great story and pretty good drama.
This DVD is great quality. I don't find any video or audio problems with it, but I AM VERY dissappointed that only the 1st 13 episodes are available on (this) DVD. The end of Devimon only marks the beginning of when it gets really cool. and to have it end with the intro of Geni(?) and stop???? Grr.
Oh, almost forgot. When I watched the show on Fox... I seem to recall the "Digicards" having a little more info on them, including the digimon names in Katakana... this does not have the same character info.
I guess I should reference my old tapes, if I still have them.
I guess I'd actually give this a 3.5 as a DVD release.

Summary: My first DVD...and I'm not sorry I bought it. It's great!
Review: As an avid viewer of all things Digimon, I knew I had to get the DVD even though I didn't have my own DVD player to watch it on. But when I was finally able to see it, I loved every second!

First you've got thirteen Digi-filled episodes, which is good because normally studios never put that much episodes in a DVD that costs the same. So for one thing, you've got a lot to watch. Another is that they're the first thirteen in Season 1 (the four never seen before are eps. 10-13, which were never released on video like 1-9), so anyone who buys it will get a complete, thorough look into Digimon and how the whole show works. I recommend this to parents who want to understand what is so charming about this series around their children.

Another thing is that you get DigiBloopers, which were what Fox Kids created last April Fools as a gag during their Saturday programming. Basically you get the characters in scenes where they have been altered to mess up their lines and accidently crack-up in the middle of shooting an episode. They're cute and hilarious. The DVD also includes captions in English for the hearing-impaired.

With this DVD covering the first story arc in Digimon, it is only a matter of time before they release another containing the 7-episode saga of the tags and crests, and the 19-episode saga of the Eighth DigiDestined child. Trust me, if you want to understand Digimon and come along with the wave, get this DVD!

Summary: ewwwww....
Review: Digimon are so ugly. Now I remeber why i like pokemon, they are sooooo cute and they kickbutt. Patamon looks like a pikachu on crack. Pokemon is 10 times better than digimon. There is no competition.
