how did it place

[DarkMaster]

it still does well and they have the green light for a fourth season

[DR. BELCH]

It 's this new darker angle they're taking with the show. I'm rapidly becoming a fan.

Spoiler:

Rika was so adorable when she blushed upon learning that Takato sent her folks e-mail under her name. I wasn't sure whether she'd kiss him or belt him in the jib. "You didn't put little hearts at the end of the message, did you?" (He did.) "Smiley faces? You put smiley faces?!" And Jerri looks closer to a full mental breakdown than ever. Look at her eyes. She practically had to be carried around like an infant, she was so traumatized.

I think season 4's starting this weekend in Japan.... All new group of kids. Goggle Boy, Angst Boy, Nice but Outspoken Girl, Lonely Tot, and the Sempai (older boy)

[SonGoku V3]

Digimon Frontier starts April 7th, the final Tamers is this weekend. FET's site will probably have the full episodes up for the final episode and the new season soon, so keep an eye out for that if you like Japanese Digimon!

[RockItShipper]

Mmmm... I should have the last 3 eps on tape soon, in no more than 2 weeks I think...

And here's a pic of 4/5 of the starting line-up for next season. Kouji's probably holding his own pity party.

The next season sounds like it's gonna be pretty good. I can't wait to see it.

[RockItShipper]

I know! I'll be getting it starting in May....

[SonGoku V3]

Hey, do you order it from Megchan or something? I usually Download the episodes and save them to a disk(though I wouldn't mind watching Japanese tamers on my TV though).

[Chris Sanders MSX]

Any word on what universe the next season is set in(The same as The tamers or another Alternate) ?

And why are they getting rid of the Tamers, I've actually grown to like them.

[SonGoku V3]

Well, Digimon Frontier is supposed to be set in an alternate Universe, kind of like how Tamers was SUPPOSE to be. Yeah, you heard me, because if you've been paying attention to Megchan's Digimon board, then you know that the Tamers world is connected to the other worlds including the Digimon Adventure season I believe. How is all of this possible you ask? One name: Ryo Akiyama. The Ryo in Tamers is the same Ryo that helped Ken before he became the kaiser(Digimon Emperor) and it's also the same guy from the manga version of the series. Oh yeah, it's also been recently announced that Sora and Matt DID get married, ending the year long speculation.

[Momijii]

I'm defiantly set for the new season of Digimon.

Wow! I'm not the only one who thinks that?



No, I don't get Digimon tapes from Megchan.




And finally, I'm sorry to say that Tamers ends badly as well.
Takato is a doctor. "Jeri" is a beauty salon owner with a son that looks like Kenta, but it's not stated if she's married to him. Kenta is an airplane pilot and has a little girl that looks like Juri with his hair color. Hirokazu is the owner of a bilingual bookstore. "Suzie" owns a Chinese catering service. Ryou is a janitor. Impmon's Tamers (dunno dub names): The girl works at a daycare center and the boy is working his way up in Japanese government.
"Rika" is a housewife. "Henry" is her husband, an interior decorator who spends all his free time with the government guy (dunno his dub name). Their kids resemble "Rika" and Ryou.

[SonGoku V3]

Funny how Henry's kid resembles Ryou! I wonder what Rika's been doing while Henry's been gone. She's no Yolei/Miyako obviously....

Anyway, Impmon's Tamers are named Mako and Ai, pretty much the same as the original.

[don Jaime]

Mar, that would be a better ending than the one I've heard about, where they just sort of say, "Well, we're done! Bye!"

[StrangerAtaru]

Um, no. This time around, the ending is left a little more open-ended, or at least that is what's said on Megchan's. The Digimon go back to the Digital World, but the final scene is Takato rediscovering the portal in Guilmon's old home, hinting that they could come back at any time....

Personally, I like the dub that has been done so far by Saban, but I am still beginning to download the eps over at FET. (and saving them onto a CD disk) As for Season 4, while not as deep as Tamers, it looks to be a ton of fun like Season 1 was. Besides, I am already into Izumi.....

[RockItShipper]

ummmm, it was 4/1/2002 when I posted that peeps.

As for the ending, I've gotta say it beats last year by a long shot.

So where's your proof that Takato and "Henry" didn't move to the US as adults and get married?

I thought I scented an April Fool's in the air (now you see why I admire her! )...but, still, I wasn't fully sure. They say American TV keeps women down, but I'm inclined to think we permit female characters to live more outside the box here than, say, Japan (taking season two's ending into account). The female characters slipping easily into traditional sex roles, however demeaning it may appear, may be equated there with maturity...still, it'd be nice to see Jerri or Rika become something along the lines of businesswomen, or writers (I''m presuming there are female authors of note in Japan). At least you didn't say Rika followed in her mother's footsteps and became an underwear model...it would have necessitated another change of pants.
