Far from terrible, but fails to duplicate the appeal of its predecessors

The storyline is better and resembles that of RPG games, but the sprites are not particularly memorable

This installment had a promising start, much like its predecessor, but it felt rushed towards the end. As a result, pacing has always been an issue for me with this franchise.

The intro and outro songs were decent, but not particularly memorable. The character designs, especially for the Digimon, were underwhelming compared to the previous series, though they still have a unique charm in this version. The designs remind me more of RPG characters than traditional Digimon sprites.

One aspect I enjoyed more than in previous installments was the storyline and the adventure elements, which reminded me of Digimon 02, my favorite series. The characters were very likable, and the voice cast was excellent.

I would definitely recommend this series, although it seems more suited for an older audience compared to its predecessor.

Interesting season but kind of stale

This season of Digimon tries to add some more interesting things by completely changing the characters, settings and the rules of the world. It partially succeeds, yet the story is a bit repetitive and there is nothing to recommend.

Very Underrated, Who didn't want to become a Digimon?!

This season was the least liked even more than 02, but i think it's not fair first of all, the English version is trash that's where probably some of the hate came from and the fact that there are no Digimon partners, but what kid who loved Digimon didn't dream about becoming one, i know i did back when Digimon was new we used to play allot pretending to be Digimons during school breaks it was fun doing so, yes it's a shame there are no partners but this season wanted to be based upon kids fantaisies of becoming a Digimon themselves and fighting bad guys which makes it special, at least that's what i think the makers of the show had in mind for this season. Frontier was also like all the others season's mixed in a blender with some added new things, we get countless cameos of the previous Digimons and even there was one who was a mix between a centaour Digimon Lighdramon and Flamedramon that was really cool. Again we have some amazing intro and outro songs by the late Kouji Wada and Aim even a colab between them in the outro of the second part of the season "An Endless Tale". Back in the day i didn't got much the chance to watch this season fully like the others, it aired in a different channel and it was between 07:30 or early 08:00 and we used to wake up right after it ended we just caught a few episodes when we had the chance to wake up early and finally after 16 years has an adult Digimon was able to return to my life again by purchasing the whole series and was able to watch this season until the end. Btw DO NOT!! Watch any of the seasons in English the American dubs are trash and it feels completely like a different series, watch it in Japanese subtitled. Anyway im glad to have watched this season.

The best season ever!

This is the most influential season ever! The action is very daring and pulse-pounding! The animation is truly supreme and the whole layout of the plot is thickening and deep. They are trying to continue the experience of a human turning into a digimon from season 3 when the could bio-merge. What I like is the link of a human's feelings into a digmon's. The characters are perfect and the comedy is hilarious. Let me just say this, action in this season definitely has risen to a new level. Duskmon is an awesome digimon who is corrupted and has a dark past so closely connected to Koji. Very heart-warming and very touching. Especially the episodes from "Home Alone, Takuya Returns" and onward. My best cartoon ever! Digimon rocks!!!!!!!!!!!

Season Four of the series..

This series has recently began to air in Japan. I, myself, have watched most of it. The main people are (Last Name, First Name) Kanbara Takuya, Minamoto Kouji, Orimoto Izumi, Shibayama Junpei, and Himi Tomoki. This time, they themselves turn into Digimon.

This is a pretty good series, and I really like it. I hope it doesn't get ignored beings there has been so many different seasons of Digimon, people think it's old, I hope people like it, because I, myself, enjoyed it very much.

If you're in the Americas, watch for it this fall. I really suggest you watch it when it comes to the U.S., because any TRUE Digimon fan would...

the worst of the Digimon series

And we have now arrived at Digimon frontier it is truly impossible that this one hasn't had any negative reviews either but now I'll take care of it because I'm the first to do it So I consider this series to be the worst anime about Digimon Yes because I didn't like this series it's evenmuch worse than Digimon 2 the story is really very mediocre the characters are not well made the only characters I can save are the one I will do the loners the small child I couldn't stand the limbs but what is really worst of all the characters Izumi and forIt was really hateful to me because the things you do only and also break others will for me be the worst of all the female characters in these series. But the worst thing is if in the previous series we loved these things like a person who had great relationships with Digimon Well not this oneit happens precisely because the characters transform into Digimon Sorry but this is Digimon OR Power Rangers because you can't mix these two things. For this reason I consider Digimon Frontier the worst of all series.

Best season thus far

I gotta say, I don't really understand all of the criticism of this season. Personally, I feel it is far superior to the first three. I love the amount of symbolism and mythological references in it. Plus, it's actually refreshing to move away from the "Digimon Partner" pattern, and have the Chosen Children evolve. This really puts the emphasis on the children's characters, as it truly becomes their quest.

The characters this season are just so much fun. My favourite is Kouji; I definitely think he has the most depth. But the others are great too - Takuya and his energetic ways, Izumi and her "Sexy Dynamite", and Junpei and his cuteness. I'm not a huge fan of Tomoki, but he doesn't subtract from the enjoyment.

The Digimon design (i.e. Spirit Digimon) are also very cool. I especially enjoy Shutumon and Wolfmon.

If you've only seen the dub, definitely try and get your hand on the original Japanese version. While adequate, the dub just doesn't do this season justice.

Reply to above comment...

This series is unique in many ways. You say a "TRUE" Digimon fan would watch this show in America, no? A TRUE Digimon fan would spit on those shoddy American dubs. That is not an opinion, but a fact.

Although the show lost many ratings in Japan, many people are still disappointed to see Digimon be (hopefully temporarily) put to rest. The series is well worth watching in it's original, proper form as this database-profile is dedicated to - as it was supposed to be viewed.

It was great!

I actually found it really great, even though it was different, there were lots of great things about it...

EG: like they were the ones having to make the important decisions, which meant they had to work together more, I actually thought it's one of the best seasons!!!

Also, it is really exciting as well, some parts I couldn't stop watching, i really do hope they make it like that again cos it was awesome.

I'm not sure if that goes with other people, but it was just a really really great season!

Not living up to the spirit

I watched this series from day 1 and never missed an episode and I find myself rather disappointed with the approach they took with this series. The preceded series introduced cards which sort of made it weird but now the kids transforming is just I dare say it blasphemy in the Digimon universe. Basically what Im trying to say it doesn't make sense and it broke all the rules the first 2 seasons set and done it very poorly. In the transformations there are no levels like Rookie, Champion, Ultimate or the very favourite Mega but what makes it worse is now when they beat people up they scan people like grocery tags. they even scan the terrain. last I checked the Digital world doesn't get destroyed by a bar code scanner. All in all like I said I was sorely disappointed by this series
