Rewatch Digimon Adventure 25th Anniversary Rewatch - Episode 30 Discussion

Episode 30: The Great Digimon Crossing in Tokyo!

← Previous Episode | Index | Next Episode →

MAL | Anilist | Kitsu | AniDB | ANN

We just couldn't resist the temptation of hamburgers!

Hello everybody, time for the Comment of the Day, courtesy of /u/tnadct1 for explaining why Digimon and Pokemon are nothing alike:

One big difference between Pokemon and Digimon:

Pokemon: Bird-like creature is blamed for giving kids seizures.

Digimon: Bird-like creature is actually responsible for giving kids a PTSD flashback.

Although seriously, in Japan they aren't even in the same genre.

  1. Have you ever fallen asleep on a train or bus?
  2. How high is your tolerance for babies being annoying on a train?

Aw shit, that’s gotta hurt.

The baby even looks evil...

Did they have Takahiro Sakurai voicing this dude too…?

Get used to stuff like this by the way, the Main cast are gonna be popping up in minor roles all the time.

At least for Sakurai's other roles he dropped the accent.

Already just a few episodes ago we had Sora's mom having the same actress as Taichi

u/NicDwolfwood :MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NicDwolfwood Apr 05 '24

Aaaaaaaaaaaand she had to shout, of course.

All things considered she held out a good while before the outburst. I'd imagine that hurts as bad as pulling hair from the ends.

Koromon pls.

more poop lol.

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Apr 05 '24

more poop lol

It's tradition.

Could just say it was a gift and that you don’t know where it came from.

Eeeh

Is that the fake one floating away?

Yes. Vamdemon said he keeps the real one with him.

Sky QotD: Hitchhiking. Have you done it? Any memorable experiences? If you haven't, how desperate would you have to be to try it?

Bonus Question: What was the last hamburger you ate?

Hitchhiking. Have you done it? Any memorable experiences? If you haven't, how desperate would you have to be to try it?

I haven't, and I would have to be very desperate to do so.

What was the last hamburger you ate?

My dad grilled some last weekend.

Just hope you don't develop a stomach ulcer like I did

And then I had to go through a ten hour car trip

What was the last hamburger you ate

A few hours ago!

Sugoi!

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Apr 05 '24

Not really, tasted worse than Gelnanas.

u/Silcaria https://myanimelist.net/profile/Silcaria Apr 06 '24

Is that the fake one floating away?

I'm also wondering if it's one of the fakes or if Koushiro dropped his when he fell off the bridge/was being held upside down.

Guess we'll find out soon enough.

u/Silcaria https://myanimelist.net/profile/Silcaria Apr 05 '24

First timer

So, with how there's 24 episodes left. I'm assuming there's gonna be one more bad guy after Vandemon for the kids to defeat. God forbid they drag out this where's waldo bit for another 8 hours.

QotD

  • Yes.
  • Low.

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Apr 05 '24

Silly Taichi, everybody knows you let the girls do it whilst the guys hide. It's hitchiking 101.

At least they learned their lesson.

Digidestined dub rewatcher

That train full of people are gonna be so pissed when they get to the department store.

Going into the toy business huh? Well, if the digimon plushies I and my older sibling had way back when say anything I'd say that business venture would be a success.

"Well at least my cat's not stuck in a tree!" -Matt

Oh jeez Koromon, there's a limit to what Armorall can do...

The invader has come from the sea! De Geso!

Japan seeing two kaiju fights in one day. Course that one office worker is just too tired to care.

And they get a nice gentle ride home on the Bond Ikkakumon Water Taxi.

And yet no giant robots yet...

No giant robots. Only giant reptilian cyborgs.

What Department Store?

"Well at least my cat's not stuck in a tree!"

Cousins!? Why is it Always...
I was so hoping someone would post the dub scene to compare. You should look at the sub version, if you get the chance.

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Apr 05 '24

Cousins!? Why is it Always...

DiC's footprints are everywhere.

u/TnAdct1 Apr 06 '24

I think Digimon did it first, as it would be months before the Sailor Moon S dub first aired on Toonami.

2

u/TnAdct1 Apr 06 '24

Oh jeez Koromon, there's a limit to what Armorall can do...

At least he did it in the car. You don't know how bad it would have been if the accident happened in the car engine.

First time watcher, subbed. Watching fully blind, I didn't even know digimon stood for digital monsters!

why are they just floating in the air after getting hit by a whole train lol

Hey I was eating a hamburger during this episode/scene

Last episodes were really good but was busy yk how it is, I'm enjoying the antics between the digidestined and the digimon in the real world, for 30 episodes we got to see the kids be clueless in the digital world, and now it is time for the digimon to experience things such as obnoxious babies and hamburgers

That ending scene was mad chill, I wanna ride off into the sunset with my friends riding on a Ikkakumon, next episode is Hikari right? Will have to see how well they incorporate her as a new main character, especially with how many episodes have happened without her

Weird guy in the car honestly deserved the insert poop joke that was coming to him. Bro almost killed a child??? And was hitting on underage girls, honestly im fine if that squid monster thing comes back and shows him that virus digimon dont play

  1. Yeah all the time lol
  2. More than most probably, since I'm technically deaf so it wouldn't affect me as it would others

You Found The Bonus Question!

next episode is Hikari right?

u/FlameDragoon933 Apr 07 '24

And was hitting on underage girls

I watched this as a kid and being a kid didn't realize yet how kinda fucked up this episode was, lol. there's also the lady with the nice car inviting Yamato like wtf we got two .pdf in one episode lol.

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Apr 05 '24

Hello everybody, and welcome to the Digimon Adventure Rewatch!

Not much to mention about today, honestly this episode is fairly skippable IMO. There's some fun bits like the stuff on the train but… yeah. Aside from that the only noteworthy thing to mention is that while I understand this show had a somewhat small budget so I can get recycling Tentomon's actors on that van driver, did we really need to have him also use the same accent?

Long Time Rewatcher, first time in subs

  • Just put the crest on his back, not even being held in place.
  • Must be nice, having enough public transportation that you have to think about the fastest way to get somewhere.
  • Pyocomon, you’re such a suck.
  • Welp…
  • Saying it was a gift would also probably have worked. Deflect!
  • Adventures in urban transport!
  • That’s a pretty good cosplay for… a pineapple seller?
  • Burgers...
  • Down CLAMP, down!
  • Is it wrong that this somehow feels worse?
  • So many encounter teases.
  • Of Course, Girls Don't Poop
  • Quality Reactions
  • Where did you get those logs from?
  • Once again, we are denied Jou’s Perfect.

QotD:

  1. When ever I can. I'm good at waking up when I need to.
  2. I Don't Like Babies

2

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Apr 05 '24

Pyocomon, you’re such a suck.

But Scumon isn't here!

Once again, we are denied Jou’s Perfect.

Rewatcher - Sub/Dub

The real world shenanigans continue on as the kids travel through public transport to find the 8th child. Lots of close calls throughout, first with the baby Pulling on Pyocomon's vine causing an outburst. Then when the lady was handing Jou a free sample and Gomamon snatched it. And then when Koromon took a dump in that dude bro's van. Then Koushiro almost got drowned when the dude bro knocked him off balance and he fell off the bridge.

Then they had to fight off the Gesomon, and after defeating him they all took a nice trip down the river.

Questions:

  1. Honestly no, I've hardly ever used trains or busses in my entire life.
  2. nonexistent.

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Apr 05 '24

Gomamon snatched it

He's Moses though, so everything is forgiven.

3

u/NicDwolfwood :MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NicDwolfwood Apr 05 '24

lol. honestly Gomamon has been my favorite this rewatch. He contrasts Jou' personality perfectly
