And So It Begins...



Quick Summary (From Wikipedia)
Mysterious climate changes occur around the world, including a blizzard that falls overnight in July at a summer camp in Japan. Seven children at the camp—Tai, Sora, Matt, Izzy, Mimi, T.K., and Joe—are each given a Digivice that falls from an aurora in the sky, and are all swept off by a wave into the Digital World. They are promptly greeted by seven creatures who call themselves Digimon, as well as the children's chosen partners.

What I Remember from this Episode
It's the first episode so I remember that the Digidestined are at a Summer Camp when it suddenly begins to snow. Eventually they are transported to the Digital World and they meet their Digimon partners.

The Good

  • We get an engaging introduction, showing the world in distress: droughts, floods, snow in the summer!
  • Getting to see the Digimon digivolve! They're stronger and are able to burn Kuwagamon!

The Bad

  • After already introducing the viewer to each of the characters at the beginning, we're forced into hearing each character's name and a little about them... AGAIN! Not only the human characters, but the Digimon characters as well!
  • Kuwagamon keeps coming back... Time after time! By his last appearance, his roar/cry has me annoyed! >_<

Funny Quotes

  • "It looks like a radish," Tai when describing Yokomon.
The Cliffhanger
  • Kuwagamon breaks off the part of the cliff where the Digidestined are standing, sending then falling down! Oh no!


Conclusion
A solid start to the series. Despite the annoyance of the introductions and a certain Digimon, this episode is engaging enough to make you watch the next episode. :)
