Poor, poor Tamers. Poor over-achieving, under-appreciated Tamers. Beloved by a small, aggressive, uber-nerdy few and ignored by the masses entirely. You truly are the Deep Space 9 of the Digimon franchise. And I will love you ‘till the day I die.
Seriously, Digimon Tamers is EMBARRASSINGLY good for a merchandise-driven children’s cartoon. This show hits classic Doctor Who levels of trying harder than a kid’s show actually needed to try. Heck, Tamers is probably a better Grown Up Digimon Show than the ACTUAL Digimon for grownups we got years later! On an intellectual level, I can understand all the various reasons why this series never caught on the way Adventure did, but I still think it’s the crowning jewel of the entire Digimon franchise.
…although the first third of Xros Wars is right up there, too!
(Don’t forget to go read all the other Conventional Wisdom comics, and maybe even donate on Patreon if you like what you see!)I like Tamers, but I don’t care for how dark the show go.
And then there’s that ending, which I will neither forgive nor forget...
