The strongest elementary school "Digimon"

Clementine 2022-03-23 09:03:32

do you remember? Are those familiar pictures:
"Agumon, you need to eat more, everyone will give you the rest of the food. Now you are the only one who can evolve to be stronger."
"I'm very full, Taichi. I really can't eat it. Go down." The camera saw Agumon's belly swelled very much, and there was a whole pile of food on the ground. It was barely able to eat by itself, but when the enemy attacked, it was unable to fight. As a result, under the urging of Taiyi, he mistakenly evolved into an evil and terrible zombie tyrannosaurus beast, and Taiyi was at a loss.

"Brother, don't go, Agumon too, don't leave me alone." Xiaoguang hugged his brother from the back.
Taichi also knew that his sister felt lonely because she couldn't attend the summer camp because of a fever. "However, I am the only one who has returned to the real world. Akong, Yamato, Kokoro, and others are still fighting in the digital world. I can't be so selfish and forget the mission of saving the digital world."
"Xiaoguang, brother promises you . , I must come back as soon as possible." Taichi turned around and put his hand on his sister's slender shoulder. Xiaoguang lowered his head and answered obediently.

"Mimi."
"Balmon."
"Mimi, Mimi, I'm sorry." "
It's okay, Balmon, thank you, thank you very much. Goodbye.
"
The pink wide-brimmed sun hat wafted in the wind in bursts of farewell, like a Butterfly. The girl's voice gently sent out: "It's my luck to meet you. Thank you..."


The tears that once brought us joy reminded myself not to give up my dreams because of age, and not to forget those beautiful things because of setbacks things.


I believe there are many Hong Kong friends who first got to know the Digimon from the 5:00 pm children's program on TVB in the 2000s. The audience at that time were mainly students from elementary school to junior high school. The common memory of many people was that they rushed home from school to watch it on time. Ten years have passed, and the memory is particularly deep. When I meet people I hate, I still flash the lyrics of Ekin Cheng's Cantonese theme song (Auto-victory Let's Fight) from time to time: "When I meet a monster, I instantly grow bigger, and I am happy when I meet a master. Much more. As soon as it is provoked, I have fire! Decide the outcome as soon as possible, and don't have to think about delaying it. The best thing must be practiced again, and counterattack each other one by two. People always miss the past, and today, when mainstream animations are filled with

a lot of deliberate Sell properties, they often feel inaccessible and unacceptable. Some people say that the previous works also have these settings, why are they excluded now, is it a double standard? My answer is not convincing. In the past, the focus of watching animation is not whether the characters are naturally dull, or the seiyuu lineup is luxurious, or the harem is fragrant and indulgent, but the enjoyment of the overall plot development and the communication between the characters. It may be interesting to spoof the ambiguous, but aside from these, the story is as empty as a blank sheet of paper. Is it a bit of putting the cart before the horse? Of course, it may also be that there were few opportunities to contact animation in the past, and now there are more choices. The strangeness brought by the contention of a hundred schools of thought is just a conservative thinking and an excessively heavy life.

In 1997, Japan's Bandai Company released the portable Tyrannosaurus machine of the first-generation monster game Digital Monster, which achieved good results in the market. In order to increase its popularity, Bandai decided to imitate the national animation Pocket Monsters (Pokemon), taking primary and middle school students as the object, and officially animated it in 1999. The first series of animation (Digimon Adventurer Digimon Adventure, referred to as DA, Muji.) After the broadcast, the response was really enthusiastic, and its popularity was even farther than Europe and the United States and other overseas regions. Since then, different series of animation works have been launched one after another, combining games, cards, comics, novels, and even radio dramas to establish their own brand.

On the day before the animation debut, a short film of about 30 minutes (The Mystery of the Birth of the Roller Beast) greeted the audience first. The plot of this story has a lot to do with the next story, it can be said to be its prequel, explaining that the protagonists and the digital spirits become partners. The children who witnessed the incident were called to participate in saving the digital world in the future.

The beginning of TV animation, abnormal weather phenomena around the world, extremely unusual. A group of Japanese elementary school students participated in a summer camp organized by the school. Seven of them disappeared strangely. They were the sixth-grade Jojo Shiroto, the fifth-grade Taiichi Yagami, Ishida Yamato, Takenouchi Sora, and the fourth-grade Mitsunoro Izumi. , Tachikawa Mimi, and third grade Takeshi Takaishi (nickname Ah Meng). The children opened their eyes and found themselves in a different world they had never heard of before. They each got a partner named Digimon, and they had a Digimon machine. Digimon had the ability to fight. Children do not know why they are here, nor how to return to their own world. Just when they were worried about the problem of food and lodging, the gentle Shellmon suddenly attacked them. Seeing that everyone's life was threatened, Taiyi's Tyrannosaurus glowed, and Agumon evolved into a larger Tyrannosaurus, easily defeating the Shellmon. After the crisis, it brought new confusion: "What is evolution? Can other digital elves also evolve? Are we here purely by chance?" The children believe that as long as they solve these mysteries, they can find their way home. method.

It was mentioned earlier that Taiyi Yagami returned to the real world, the hustle and bustle of the city. Such an ordinary thing made him suspicious and afraid that it was not true. "The experience in the digital world is full of dangers, and all the way to eat and drink, and now I can safely drink Coke and watch TV at home, without worrying about the enemy's pursuit, and without having to argue because of different strategies, how wonderful." He must have I thought so. "However, the others haven't come back, which means they are still in the Digital World. What should I do?" He decided to put it aside for the time being. "Anyway, I'm just a child, saving the world or something has nothing to do with me."
This is exactly what most people think, but the crisis is approaching, will it consider this? Taiyi's decision at this time is in line with normal people's thinking. However, abnormalities have occurred all over the world, and digital spirits have even appeared in the real world. No matter where they escape, it seems that they cannot prevent things from getting worse. "Even I can't stand there, let alone Mimi and the others. My adventure is not over yet." Taichi, probably with such a realization, resolutely returned to the Digital World.

Frankly speaking, Digimon is by no means the first, and similar examples can be found in literary and artistic creations: novels include Alice in Wonderland, The Legend of Navia, animations include Gaoli's Future World, The Legend of Demon Heroes and so on. The work roughly tells the story of the protagonist leaving home and going to an unfamiliar environment, where he/they wants to live and roam. By describing the characters' adventures in foreign countries, the authors hope to bring out the message of respecting others, getting along with others with knowledge, and being independent and brave. Although it is a commonplace, such subjects have always been attractive. People always hope to get different stimulation, in another identity, to leave the social prison of various shackles. But human beings must return to reality after all. The real growth is not escaping difficulties and failures, but trying to accept them. Therefore, no matter what kind of work, the protagonist must return to the starting point. Only those who dare to face the past calmly are qualified to create a better future.

Since I decided to end one chapter, I don't want a sequel, so please bear with the length. And when to revisit it. After sorting out the information at hand, the content of the story can be divided into four stages: the place where the
archive island
first landed, after climbing the highest mountain to watch, it was found to be an isolated island in the center of the ocean. Through fighting, the children found that the evil beasts were the initiators of many good digital spirits on the island, including the righteous lion beasts, flame beasts and so on. The evil monster uses the black gear to control everything, and divides the file island into small pieces in an attempt to expand its sphere of influence. Everyone knew from his mouth that he was the chosen child, and Xuannei, the mysterious old man who knew everything, told them through the video that they had to go to the Information Continent. After all the companions gather together, they declare war on the evil beast, but they are not its opponents. Because Ah Meng is the biggest threat, he is the primary target of attack. At a critical juncture, Batamon finally succeeded in evolving into an Angelmon and defeated the evil beast, but at the cost of devoting all of its power to degenerate into a Digimon, Ah Meng hated the existence of dark powers. With a heavy heart, with the help of the giant whale beast, everyone left the file island and went to the new continent.

Highlights: Episode 11, A-Zhang recites the Buddhist scriptures and defeats the beasts.
Waste UP: I don't know since when, carrying electronic products with you has become a routine action. I remember in the past when mobile phones were not popular, I never dared to ask people to wait when I was out, and I would rather arrive early. When I was a child, I went back to my hometown to visit relatives and took a coal-powered train. It has evolved into today's fully automatic electric train. The uneasy look on the faces of my compatriots is no longer, but more of the "playing phone and listening to songs" that can be seen everywhere.
Some people criticized Mitsuno Lang for bringing a notebook to the summer camp for fun, but I once witnessed a primary school student being forced to enroll in a large number of perfect low-B study courses during the summer vacation, familiar with Shakespeare and other famous works and learning three foreign languages. As a primary school student, Photon Lang can do what he likes, which is actually a kind of happiness.

The enemy of the information continent chapter
, Gokumon, will appear soon. It is a full-body Digimon who likes to show off his fat tiger-like devilish singing voice. From the beginning, he tracks the children through the railway cable network. Taichi became arrogant and arrogant after obtaining the evolution key and the pattern card, and pushed Agumon too much, as a result, he mistakenly evolved into ZombieGreymon. Later, after the training of the fairy beast, he came out of the remorse of self-blame. Gokumon's subordinate Momons betrayed, and kidnapped Akong and Bhikkhumon, and set up a dangerous grid around the periphery. Taichi thought his existence was just a game, but Mitsuro told him that after human beings entered the digital world, they were just a bunch of data. Once they died, they would cease to exist, and they could not start over like a game. Tai Yi hesitated at the entrance of the power grid, but his determination to rescue A Kong was stronger than his fear, and he finally rescued his companions. In addition, Gokumon defeated Molemon, absorbed the computer virus left by it, and became extremely powerful. At this time, Taichi's Courage Badge really shined, causing Agumon to successfully super-evolve into MechaGreymon, and defeating Gokumon. However, due to its excessive destructive power, it distorted the magnetic field of the nearby dark web and swept the Taiga Agumon back to the real world.
Although Tai's stay in the real world is short, the digital world has passed for a few months. The people searched to no avail, lacked the unity of leaders, did not know how to go forward, and all became depressed. In addition to the little evil beasts, the last thing is scattered. Taichi, who returned to the real world, realized that he could not be alone, so he bid farewell to his younger sister, Hikaru, and returned to the Digital World with Agumon. He tried hard to find his scattered friends, knowing that the person who caused everyone to split was a blood-sucking beast, and it was it who was working in secret to sow discord. The purpose was to prevent the children's cards from being activated and prevent it from invading the real world.

Highlights: Episode 25, Karaoke singing performance at the Frog King Castle.
Abandoned UP: After Taiyi disappeared, the first person to understand the conspiracy of the vampire beast was A Kong. She secretly protected her friends, but was unwilling to appear. The reason is that when everyone else's Digimon have successfully super-evolved one by one, she couldn't understand the meaning of the love card, so Bhikkhumon couldn't evolve for a long time, and she felt that she was a burden to the team. A Kong's mother is a traditional woman, and she has more control over her daughter. But Kong only likes to play football and has no love for flower arrangements at all, so she yelled at her mother, "Why don't you know me at all?" and ran out of the house.
This sentence is very familiar, you and I do not know how many times I have said it. Sometimes your parents force you to do things you don't like. The usual explanation is for your own good. Many people don't take this one-sided love seriously. But from another point of view, the method of parental care may be problematic, but the motive is well-intentioned. A Kong's mother worried that her daughter would be easily injured playing football, so she hoped that she would stay at home and borrow flowers to cultivate her temperament. The Bhikshumon still has to fight the enemy even though he is still wounded, and it is also to protect A Kong. This love should not be questioned.

In order to crush the ambitions of vampire monsters, the reunited
children return to the real world together with their digital elf partners. However, they found that the enemy's men were looking for the eighth selected child and wreaking havoc on Tokyo. Both sides have investigated the whereabouts of the unknown child. Dilumon, a subordinate of the vampire beast, discovered that Taiyi's sister, Yashenguang, was most likely the target person. Under the reminder of his friend, the wizard beast, he remembered that his closed heart had been waiting to meet with Xiaoguang, and he was Xiaoguang's digital elf. Pat. This news was known by the vampire beast, it captured Dilu beast and forced Xiaoguang to appear. It also created fog in Tokyo Bay, disrupting local traffic. In the chaos, the wizard beast blocked the fatal blow of the blood-sucking beast on Xiaoguang and disappeared, and the sad and angry Dilu beast super-evolved into a fairy beast under the power of Xiaoguang's light pattern card. And together with Ameng's Angelmon, Agumon and Gabumon evolve into stronger ultimates, defeating the resurrected Ultimate Vampire Beast. Although the battle is over, the digital world appears in the sky, and it is getting closer and closer to the real world, which means that the dark forces still exist. So the children bid farewell to their relatives and friends, and entered the digital world again, vowing to destroy the ultimate enemy.

Highlights: Episode 33, Shibuya-based Digital Spirits Pumpkin Beast and Mineral Beast.
Abandoned UP: The part describing Mitsuro and his adoptive parents is very touching. The author has many brothers, and my parents sometimes prefer one over the other. Looking back now, it is really stupid to be unilaterally jealous because I am not good at expressing my feelings.

The Dark Forces Arc
The Four Heavenly Kings of Darkness, who originally disturbed the order of the Digital World, were busy sealing the Four Holy Beasts and couldn't get away. The enemies the children defeated along the way were nothing but the clown emperor's subordinates. When the vampire monsters are eliminated, they also complete their homework to deal with the selected children. The Four Heavenly Kings are the Iron Seadramon who controls the ocean, the Puppetmon who controls the forest, the Mechanical Evildramon who controls the industrial city, and the Clown King who controls the land. They have their own spheres of influence and subordinates, and they turn the Digital World into the shape of a spiral mountain. Innocent digital spirits suffer as a result.
Taiyi and the others immediately attacked, but the level was too far apart. Fortunately, the goblin beast gave his life to help. They fled to the ocean and were hunted down along the way. Although the battle tyrannosaurus successfully eliminated the steel sea dragon beast, it could not heal the heavy blow of the killing of the giant whale beast.
Then they went to the confused forest area, but were repeatedly fooled by the puppet beasts. Although the enemy was finally defeated, negative emotions such as sadness and confusion still plagued everyone. The conflict between Yamato and Taichi, who had doubts about their own existence value, intensified. Meimei also left the team based on her own reasons, and A-Zhang worried that he decided to follow, and the team that had finally been reorganized was split again.
Small note: The poor Lionmon started his career in the Digimon series.
The rest of the members went to the Steel City, and Xiaoguang fell ill again because of the exhaustion of running around. The panicked Taichi and Mitsuro ventured out to find medicine. In the chaos, everyone fell to the bottom and became separated. The snot beasts rescued by Xiaoguang bravely blocked the enemy's attack, and the encouraged fighting tyrannosaurus easily killed the mechanical evil dragon beast, and Xiaoguang's disease also improved.

Waste UP: I haven't mentioned Yamato, because I don't really appreciate such characters. In general anime works, in addition to an impulsive and reckless hot-blooded fool, there must be another arrogant little white face, who is indifferent to others, but is favored by thousands of girls, and often confronts the first male lead.
In the play, Yamato is separated from his younger brother Ah Meng since childhood because his parents divorced at an early age, so he is very concerned about Ah Meng's safety. He is dissatisfied with Taiyi's lack of thoughtful and sloppy attitude, and is even more jealous of Ah Meng's good relationship with Taiyi, so he leaves the team halfway. Although he grew up in an incomplete family, his father was also busy with work for a long time, growing like a weed. But it can be seen from the story. Most of the misunderstandings are caused by his lack of communication. For example, the restaurant where he and his husband were trapped in the egg beast, since they couldn't leave for a while, why didn't they make a long-term plan, but agreed to stay without saying a word. Helping people is a good thing, but you have to do what you can. If A-Zhang causes more trouble, what should you do? Earlier, I promised Ah Meng to return soon, but it was delayed again and again. If it wasn't for Tai Yi to find him after his return, with Yamato's character, wouldn't he hate the clumsy Ah Zhang. The more stupid thing is more than this, Ah Meng grew up in the adventure, can protect himself, the most appropriate response is to encourage him, and pay more attention to him, looking forward to him. Yamato, the older brother, left the team after suspecting that he was no longer valued. Finding one's own way is a process that everyone must go through, but if you are too persistent, you will get to the bottom of the horns and force yourself into a dead end. The real sense of responsibility is not to take yourself too seriously, but to clearly position yourself. Taiyi knew that the purpose of his return was to defeat the dark forces, so he chose to move forward. So when Yamato challenged him, he would act so angry.
The leader focuses on the development of the major situation, which is his advantage, and the disadvantage is that he ignores the details. Shouldn't the partners who can see this point make more suggestions and suggestions to improve his immature strategy? Of course, the friends who voted Yamato as the popularity king will have opposite opinions, thinking that Taiyi, who makes his own decisions, is the unstable factor for the team. However, a person who refuses to open his heart, has a lot of complaints accumulated in his stomach, only knows how to complain about others, and thinks that the whole world does not understand his own troubles, and he should reflect on himself the most. "My friendship card can't light up on its own, it's up to everyone to make it shine." Fortunately, he realized this, and finally returned to the team, not to the level of a vile dead child like Uchiha Sasuke.

Everyone set off to the base of the last enemy, the Clown Emperor. Taiyi did not immediately launch an offensive as before. Instead, he formulated a strategy to let Akong find his scattered comrades. Accumulate sharp. After a fierce female Digimon battle was over, the Joker King finally appeared and easily knocked down Battle Greymon. At this time, Yamato and others arrived, and the power of the Friendship Badge came into play, making the BattleGreymon stand up again. But the power of combining the two ultimate bodies is still not its opponent. Except for Ameng, Xiaoguang, and Badamon, all the companions are turned into toys by it. Ah Meng remembered the words of his brother Yamato, and he did not give up hope easily even at the last moment. His hope badge thus radiated dazzling light. Angel beast succeeded in becoming the last super-evolved into a more powerful holy angel beast. Let everyone return to their original state, and put the clown emperor and his subordinates into the kingdom of heaven.

However, it is not the Four Heavenly Kings of Darkness who secretly control everything, but the Apocalypse beast that came from the other side of the firewall. It was formed from the resentment of the Digimon who failed to evolve and died, so it hates the children who can make the partner evolve successfully. In addition to destroying their evolution badges, they swallowed the children digitally. The children felt hopeless and depressed for a while, but the digital spirits encouraged them and remembered their love for each other. Everyone cheered up again, and finally the digital badge appeared in the hearts of the children, making the digital elves evolve. Apocalypse Beast was defeated and attempted to self-destruct, but the children's Tyrannosaurus machine emitted digital light and sealed it forever. The dangers of the real world are lifted, and the digital world is reborn.

The crisis in the digital world has been lifted and order has been restored. The first to be recreated is the archive island that first came, then the sky and the ocean, and slowly spread to the mainland. Various digital eggs descend on the founding village, and new life will be born here. Everyone enjoyed a brief silence and reluctantly said goodbye.
Highlights: In the end, when everyone leaves, Balmon once refused to meet Meimei for fear of the pain of separation. Butterfly, which is accompanied by a cappella sung by Koji Wada, is definitely one of the most exciting endings in similar works.


The children and the digital elf partners embarked on an adventurous journey. They laughed, cried, contradicted, and separated together. They went through battles and finally succeeded in saving the digital world. Similar things appear in many animes, but I think this set is particularly meaningful. The selected children each have an Evolution Tyrannosaurus Machine, as well as a pattern card and an evolution key. These tools do not just promote the evolution of digital spirits, but also reflect the various qualities of children:
Taiyi learns what true courage is, and no longer rushes blindly.
Xiaoguang has always thought about people, and would rather sacrifice himself, believing that even a digital wizard, life should be respected on the bright side.
A Kong understands that true love is to hope that the other party will be better.
Yamato understands the true meaning of friendship, which is that even if the ideas are different, they still trust each other.
Although Ah Meng is the youngest, he has never lost his faith and firmly believes that there is always hope in the future.
Meimei left the team for a while because she kept witnessing the death of the digital elves. This was because of her pure and kind character, and she couldn't bear to see anyone shed blood or sacrifice in battle. But in order to bring true peace, there should be no escape, so she decides to return to the war. Inspired by her, many digital spirits volunteered to join the team.
Photon Lang finally understands, don't choose to bow down or even change yourself because of the thirst for knowledge. A true wise man holds a firm and independent heart.
A-zhang is the oldest in the team, and believes that actions should be prudent and cautious, even if he appears cowardly and timid in the eyes of others. He still does what he believes in and is loyal to the idea of ​​helping others, which is also a manifestation of honesty.
Many people sneer at childhood animations, think that they belong to children's audiences, and refuse to lower their heads to touch them and understand them. I think this attitude is wrong. No matter how complicated the world setting and storyline are, going back to the basics is the simplest emotion that touches human nature. The audience of this animation is more than just a kid playing in the mud. A pure and beautiful character should not become a torrent of history, and should not be ridiculed by arrogant and mature elites.

Post-note: After the TV anime ended, another movie version followed (Our War Game). Those who reject Digimon 02 as a sequel will regard this as the final outcome. As one of them, allow me to shout, "A Kong's boyfriend is Taichi, not Yamato."
The story is very simple, a digital egg appeared in the online world, and by devouring data to hatch, it continued to evolve, causing huge chaos. Due to various reasons, Taichi and Mitsuro only contacted Yamato and Ah Meng. As a result, Agumon and Gabumon entered the Internet, and people all over the world witnessed the battle through computers. However, this digital elf is extremely cunning, constantly splitting and complicating itself, and invading the computer system of the US Department of Defense and launching an interstate nuclear bomb. Only by hitting the real body can this crisis be stopped. Taichi and Yamato transform into data and enter the computer to participate in the battle, and the BattleGreymon and Steel Garuru combine to become the majestic Omegamon. In the end, Photon Lang reprinted the e-mail sent by the bystander, which made the enemy slow down. Omega beast eliminated the enemy within the 10-minute detonation period, and the world returned to peace.
Small note: very exciting movie, exciting, no cold scene. Worth revisiting.

Post UP: A person with a single-cell habit should have made a CD-ROM. The reason for writing is very simple, because I couldn't find a new animation suitable for me. This text promised last year that friends would appear, and it has been delayed to this day because of laziness. Of course, I have a very bad excuse. The Digimon was launched in Hong Kong in the millennium. As long as it is completed before 2010, it is not a breach of contract. (Totally ignore the end of the year!) So forcing myself to take the time to persevere, it turns out that this is really fucking tiring.
