Digimon

Honestly? Writing wise, Digimon was a much better show than Pokemon.

Of course, most people does not notice that because they are only familiar with the atrocious english dub which was filled with bad jokes and censorship. The great music of the series was replaced with some godawful trashy "rap" songs that feel totally out of place.

I am so glad the dub in my country keep the original songs and music, and also keep almost the same dialogue of the original series.

Watch the original 1999 anime, avoid the english dub.

This series was the best! I loved it more than Pokemon and more than its follow-ups - not that they were bad, but nothing could compare to this. I loved the characters, the Digimon, the battles and the stories.

I grew up in Portugal so i got a dubbed Japanese version, although now has an adult i think the Portuguese dubs are kind of cringy specially in this season, nowadays i watch it in Japanese with English subtitles. This anime is haunting it's emotional you can relate to the characters, feels like you are there with them going trough everything they are going. When i watched the american version most of the serie's soul was gone so i couldn't even watch it anymore. This IMDB page is for the normal Jap version i noticed even has the original voice cast so i give it a 10, the American version got a 4 from me.

So this series is based on a video game that I had played on the PS1 some time ago. But I played that game very little and I hadn't finished. But now that they've made this anime adaptation then I'm sorry because in the title I put I said that this is much betterPokémon Beppe that in the Pokémon anime I liked a few seasons because things were always the same things that is Ash you go around Everywhere you have Pokémon win medals and get beaten cleanly then what were there they were just crazy that anime and the bad guys they were always ridiculousespecially Team Rocket and some characters were really unbearable and above all mixed which for me was the most unbearable of all instead of the Digimon it really had very good things it had a good story some good characters some were very good even the bad ones and then there were really godsgreat bonds between the person and the Digimon but I'll tell you one thing the only characters that aren't done well for me are Thai and the computer child they are the only characters that I didn't like they mirror the ugliest parts and when they make themselves ridiculous instead in group of children nativity scenesthe one that is my favorite because I liked it out of all of them is Sora, she is a character that I like very much because in addition to being beautiful and smart, funny and nice, that's why she is my favorite character and then the Digimon are really channeled much better than Pokémon lethings that do when emotions do it in any way for example the super evolution mega evolution which is very beautiful in via Veneto that I am Italian it is the version that happened in my country it is the original Japanese version because the American one they have called alonethe soundtrack which isn't much if you know the real soundtrack without censorship. Watch the original version with subtitles to conclude rating 8.

Not sure why Pokemon was seen as superior. This show had a new story in every episode and there was a conclusion season after season. Unlike Pokemon who does the somethings in every episode season after season.

The theme song is a treasure. Voice acting was iconic The digivolving visually and audibly was a great experience.
