Yay, can't wait for it ^_^

...I need to finish Savers first though, but who was the genius that decided to place the dub in the 10 AM and 1:30 PM time slot  -AC

It really does look like the original Digimon, rather than 4th and 5th series.

So through a comment about this at GFaqs I found out that there's a Digimon Tamers MMO...well, there goes my social life for a while.

Digimon started getting kinda boring after Tamers, but I suppose I'll check it out.

Tamers, honestly, was my favorite series. Still is, honestly. I hope this is as good as that!

And still not good enough. Now if it had Wombatmon, I might be more impressed.... ^_^

Savers (Data Squad for the germans) was my second favourite series. (After the original Adventures)

Frontier was my fav but I liked savers too. :) Anyway, so what digimon will shoutmon digivolve to? shoutgamon? 8D

Shoutmon to Shriekmon to Shoutshriekmon?

Also, in case you didn't notice...
Tai
Daisuke (Davis)
Takato

Masaru (Marcus)

See? The second letter is ALWAYS A! ^_^

Correction:

-Tai(chi)
-Daisuke/Davis

-Daimon Masaru/Daimon Marcus (last name first)

It's always a name with た (ta) or だ (da).

Nah, I bet fans will most likely go with the "TADAH!!" name tradition and swap them around. This should be fun, albiet skipping Savers and Frontier being cut off in the US (Well, half of Frontier, or I missed plenty of it).

I think the card game will also likely get rules revamped.. again. I heard there was also a game to accomidate this too.

Could we have names? I assume that's what it says underneath their pics, and I'm sure someone here can translate.

Also, see: Metalgreymon, Metalgarurumon, Wargrowlmon, etc. for them turning into robots.

And you do have a point, Wily.
Title: Re: New Digimon series this summer, Digimon Cross Wars

DIGIMON: ROBOTS IN DISGUISE
Title: Re: New Digimon series this summer, Digimon Cross Wars
Post by: borockman on May 26, 2010, 02:05:26 PM
Oh you want names ok.

Dorurumon- the brown dog like
Shautomon?- the one on the left red. (someone need to do a better job than me)
Starmon- Self explanatory
Ballistamon- right bug one

Digimon Crossroader?

The megazord is called Shautomon cross four.

The casts:
 
Kudou Taiki
Hinomoto Akari
Tsurugi Zenjirou
Aonuma Kiriha
Amano Nene

From left to right.

Post by: borockman on May 26, 2010, 02:12:39 PM
Unless my katakana skill failed me, yes it's called Starmon or Sutaaaaamon literally.
Title: Re: New Digimon series this summer, Digimon Cross Wars
Post by: Mirby on May 26, 2010, 02:12:57 PM
Shautomon is the previously announced Shoutmon. Which means that he's the basis for the crosses. I'm guessing if only two Digimon are involved, it'll be Shoutmon Cross Two. Also, it seems to be a new take on Jogress, or rather, DNA Digivolution.

And the Starmon you're thinking of is probably this guy:
(http://wikimon.net/images/4/41/Starmon.jpg)
Looks like he got a redesign.

@Blackhook: you're kinda wrong there. There are set Digivolution lines. I'm pretty sure that the Starmons we've seen before were Champion/Adult level or higher; this is obviously a Rookie/Child.

Title: Re: New Digimon series this summer, Digimon Cross Wars
Post by: Mirby on May 26, 2010, 02:19:53 PM
So from what I can tell, that phone thing is obviously the new Digivice. Kihira and Nene are rivals of sorts; we don't know if they're good or bad yet, but the other Digimon (primarily Shoutmon, Dorurumon, Starmon, and Ballistamon) can merge a la Jogress to form Shoutmon Cross Four. Kihira and Nene's might not be a part of it, or maybe their Digimon can merge as well. I'm guessing that there's a fourth kid as of yet unrevealed too, based on the four that merge and only three kids. Starmon is probably Akari's. That leaves either Dorurumon or Ballistamon for Zenjirou.

This is all speculation, mind you.

Xross is the official one though as stupid as it may be. Not like it matters much since chances are it won't keep the subtitle when it airs anywhere else anyways.

Quote from: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2011-09-09/new-digimon-tv-series-to-assemble-franchise-heroes
the upcoming Digimon Xros Wars: Toki o Kakeru Shōnen Hunter-tachi television anime series will bring together the lead characters from the previous entries in the Digimon franchise as Digimon Hunters. Digimon Xros Wars: Toki o Kakeru Shōnen Hunter-tachi will serve as the second year or third season of the Digimon Xros Wars storyline when it premieres on October 2.

TV Asahi producer Tomoharu Matsuhisa, Toei Animation producer Hiroyuki Sakurada will return for the new series, but Yukio Kaizawa (Digimon Tamers, Gegege no Kitarō, Jigoku Sensei Nube) will be the new series director.

Yes, I'm necroposting. But for good reason.

Back on August 15 (I'm a little late with the news, I know), it was confirmed by Ben Diskin (most recently heard as Young Xehanort in Kingdom Hearts 3D) that there will in fact be an Engish dub for this.
(http://rrrotoku.com/files/2012/08/ekgtxc.png)

No idea when it's coming out, but hey, it's news!

I thought he sounded nice. Eh, to each their own.

Also, I may check out the English dub, I may not. I already saw all of Xros Wars (and Hunters for that matter) with subtitles, so I'm good.

Posted on: September 01, 2012, 08:51:17
So the first episode of the localized version aired on Nickelodeon earlier today. Seemed to be a mostly-faithful localization, though some of the names still bug me (at least Mikey means the same thing as Taiki and Angie is somewhat acceptable for Akari, but Zenjirou became Jeremy? What?). I'm aware that's just something that happens with the series though.

But yeah, aside from that it was pretty good. Gonna probably catch as much as I can, for curiosity's sake.

Though apparently Zenjirou's English VA was also Piedmon way back in Adventure. And also Veemon. And Impmon.

Damn he's been with the franchise since the start.

Hm, and Angie was also Sora.

I really should have looked into this more before it premiered.
