About me
I watched the original Digimon as a child and now as an adult, I'm revisiting it. I have yet to watch Data Squad, but plan to (although I've heard less than delightful things about it, alas).

Thoughts on Digimon Adventure
I'm a traditionalist; I can't help but love this season very deeply, even if the start is a little slow. It really picks up by episode 21 and the amount of character development everyone goes through during the Dark Masters saga is amazing.

Thoughts on Digimon Adventure 02
Not as good as the first season, but it gets major points for being much more focused and having a better soundtrack. Two things that frustrate me, however is the fact that they never followed up on the Dark Ocean subplot and that the epilogue was... lame. I felt like it was not only pointless, but also random and dissatisfying.

Thoughts on Digimon Tamers
My favorite season, but not without lots of love for the others. I feel like this one's the most realistic and definitely the darkest of all. I personally love that they essentially set it in our world (that is, Digimon is an anime, card game, etc.) and the directions they took it in feels the most realistic--if digimon really did exist, they would exist like this. This season was heartbreaking, particularly the Beelzemon subplot and the ending. I was also in love with the fact that Takato wasn't a typical goggle-head; he was gentle and uncertain, but he still had the most important trait of his predecessors: he is driven and good-hearted. My only disappointment with the series is that I felt the backstories for our main tamers wasn't as filled out as it should have been and that I felt like the relationships between them weren't sufficiently explored.

Thoughts on Digimon Frontier
This season has a lot of pros and cons. It's not my favorite, but I think that they did several interesting things that makes it worth rewatching. First of all, I'm still skeptical about humans turning into digimon, but the advantage of that is that they've effectively cut the cast in half. In previous seasons, there was a tendency to focus on the relationship between partners rather than between human and human or digimon and digimon (this is particularly true in Tamers). However, since no one has partners in Frontier, I felt like the interpersonal relationships were very well explored. The Kouichi arc/subplot was really well done and was absolutely fascinating. Unfortunately, I felt like the season started to lose steam after Cherubimon was defeated, possibly because it became less character-driven than it was before.

To Do
I try to be fairly active on the wiki and at the moment I'm nesting in Digimon Frontier. I'm trying to find a screencap for each episode in the episode list and for every individual episode I'm trying to fill out summaries, featured characters, and digivolution charts. The info available for Digimon Frontier episodes is pretty sparse, probably because it isn't as popular as the other seasons. Still, I'm a slave to my mild OCD compulsions, so it's a necessary evil.

After I finish Frontier, I'll probably comb through Tamers to fine tune episode pages.
