Fall Anime 2015

[Lord Celebi]

Anybody here see the first block of Digimon Adventure Tri? I'm not going to say much to avoid spoilers because I want to blabber my mouth off about it right now as I just finished seeing all four episodes, but to give a three word description: Awesome nostalgia overload. The first four episodes are up on Anime4You and it must be seen to be fully enjoyed.

I feel like I've just met some very old, very dear friends whom I haven't seen in quite a while. I absolutely loved this. It was everything I wanted out of a new Digimon story. I really enjoyed the slower and more thoughtful pacing and how much more cerebral this was. Lot of good references to the original Digmon series as well, which was very welcome.

Spoiler:

I love how the characters are not living up to their crests. Tai isn't courageous, Matt isn't acting like a friend, Joe isn't reliable, etc. They're really fleshing out the characters out.

Also the fight between Omnimon and Alphamon was awesome.
