I love Tamers so much too! :D

Given that Digimon entices such a visceral nostalgic yearning for days long since gone, this beautiful sadness is the perfect emotional overture to begin the series with. Likewise, Tai's anxiety over collateral damage in the real world is a welcome additional layer of maturity that is trying and succeeding to age with its viewer. Like I said in the anime thread, this show is like seeing a very dear old childhood friend for the first time all grown up. It's still the same person, but so much more complex.

Oh and Omnimon vs Alphamon was dope as hell.
Yeah that's a good point. I was much more into Tamers/Frontier than Adventures so I don't feel as emotionally attached, I guess. Things picked up after the first episode, but I get they had to reintroduce everyone and tell us what they'd been up to. I do appreciate the maturity of it and the fact that they're addressing issues like damage/injuries if fights happen in the real world. Stuff kids wouldn't even consider but that we can clearly see as issues now that we're grown up!
