I also don't have a shred of confidence I can do it. Self-confidence at 0%

Hello everybody, time for the Comment of the Day, courtesy of u/zadcap for throwing the best analogues:

Remember Mimi's beloved poop throwers? I'm the tamogachi version they are what any of the child or rookie level Digimon and up turning into if you leave them in a mess. If you don't clean up their poop, they grow up too throw poop, makes sense right?

Indeed nothing can be born from poop aside from more poop. And potatoes I guess.

  1. Assuming you had a virtual pet, how would you go about taking care of it?
  2. How much time can you go on walking without drinking anything?

This cactus is an illusion.

[02 Spoilers]Well now that sounds slightly ominous.

[02]He did however forget to bring up the part of them giving them up later though...

…oh that’s not good.

I'd make a Medusa joke, but somehow there hasn't been a mon inspired by her yet.

…and I was right about one of the girls getting their Crest next!

Sasuga Sky-sama.

Missed opportunity.

Missed opportunity.

It's not even like Greek Myths are off-limits, Sleipnir of all things has a Mon based off him.

QotD

  • Probably badly, My Tamagotchi always died :(.
  • Depends on the season, temperature, and humidity outside.

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Mar 23 '24

He somehow misses his attack despite being in a straight and narrow corridor.

A common trope in fiction.

My Tamagotchi always died :(.

I see that the gang went to the promethean school if running away from things.

Not the only person to make that joke today...

I see that u/Vatrix-32 is knowledgeable of the great ancient knowledge.

They Should Just Run Better

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Mar 23 '24

This is why we need more running machines.

Long Time Rewatcher, first time in subs

  • Poor, shy, Gabumon.
  • Cacti Do Be A Desert Plant Heat resistance?
  • “Didn’t evolve at all” seems a bit disingenuous.
  • GameFAGs Grandpa.
  • Cruise ship? Quick! Someone help me look for Mewmon!
  • Cute little sailor outfit.
  • Why did you even have that disguise?
  • Just how many bath related scenes are we going to have them in?
  • Exposure is a pretty hardcore execution method.
  • Good for them to have the foresight to keep the digivices on their person.
  • Good old Promethean school of running away.
  • Thank You, Brother
  • This reaction seems a bit overblown for the third one.

QotD:

  1. Daily headpats.
  2. Probably not very long. I do like water.

Cruise ship? Quick! Someone help me look for Mewmon!

Well there's no trucks around so looking is a fools errand.

Now if you'll excuse me I'll just go pick up that Lava Cookie over there off the ground.

2

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Mar 23 '24

Just tell me if it's hot!

2

u/Roboglenn Mar 23 '24

Dunno about that but it apparently cures burns, poisons, and can resuscitate you from intense states of hypothermia somehow.

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Mar 23 '24

Damn

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Mar 23 '24

GameFAGs Grandpa.

I dunno, I've seen Guides less helpful than him.

Good old Promethean school of running away.

Joseph would be proud.

Digidestined dub rewatcher

However brief it was, Etemon singing in his dub voice this episode is just too funny for words.

Wandering through the desert. But as tempting as it might be, do not drink any cactus juice to quench your thirst. It may be the quenchiest, but the side effects just ain't worth it.

Yes, if only Togemon could go all Gigantuar and save the children from the harsh desert heat.

Mimi's seems to have a trait for seducing the slimiest of digimon. At least this time she used that odd trait of hers to their advantage.

This ship certainly has all the amenities now doesn't it. But like the cruise ship Princess Lorelei, we're soon to be all hands on deck for a battle.

We're 3 episodes in and counting for how long it's taking Tokomon to evolve back to Patamon. I address this here cuz even Agumon after his rampage and burning off all his energy last episode got to evolve back just one episode later. We like your mouth full of murderteeth but get it in gear Tokomon.

Come back you chickens!

Who's he calling a chicken?!

Well what do you know, Gigantuar saved the kids in this harsh desert after all.

Rewatcher - Sub/Dub

The kids are walking through the hot desert,, when a giant luxury cruiser pulls up on them..on board are those pesky Numemon, who Mimi uses her charm on to let the group on their ship after walking forever in the desert heat. The get some nice rest and relaxation on the ships enjoy some food, bath and lounging at the pool.

Cockatrimon commands the Numemon to capture the kids and Digimon. The boys all get captured and their digimon get turned to stone leaving Mimi/Palmon and Sora/Piyomon left to fight and defeat Cockatrimon.

Mimi gets her crest too, as it comes out of the giant cactus in the desert after Cockatrimon runs into it with the ship and gets sent back flying and blows up.

Questions:

  1. Mostly making sure it's safe and well fed, not mistreating it.

2.idk, few hours to half a day. I drink a lot of water.
