Hello, I am CrestsofDetermination&Loyalty. I have watched Digimon since the first season and I immediately fell in love with it. I have seen every episode of each season (yes including Xros Wars- can't wait for Fusion) as well as all the movies. My favorite seasons in order: Adventure 02, Adventure, Tamers, Xros Wars, Frontier, Data Squad. That may change depending on how good Fusion is. Personally I think Xros Wars overdid digixros and made digimon too powerful (and too similar to Power Rangers). Hunters did better by adding limitations (so you couldn't digixros the entire Digital World) but I wish there would've been more plot. Frontier would've been higher on the list if the Spirits would've been used more like Digi-Eggs and they all had their own digimon who could use the Spirits. Data Squad was just awful all across the board. Every character annoyed me, the music annoyed me, the plot was the exact reason adults weren't allowed into the Digital World in the first 4 seasons, the animation was too much like Naruto (nothing against Naruto but it just shouldn't interfere with Digimon), and worst of all: MARCUS DIDN'T WEAR GOGGLES! Goggles have been proven to be needed by the leader since the days of V-Tamer 01. They shouldn't have gotten rid of them for Data Squad. The only good thing about it was Agumon, Gaomon, Lalamon, and their digivolutions (not the characters [remember they annoyed me] but the species themselves). I have also read all the manga except for Encode and the Adventure/02 manhua (if anyone can help me out there I'd appreciate it). Fav manga in order (excluding manhua): Next, V-Tamer 01, Xros Wars, D-Cyber, Re:Digitize.

I am currently working on two fanfics set in the Adventure universe. The first is Fan:Digimon Adventure: A Tale of Two Heroes and the second is its sequel Digimon Adventure: Double-Crested Warriors. I will post them chapter by chapter as I finish them.

On a side note, I guess I should say a bit about myself. I am a senior in high school and I plan to go to college to become a video game designer. I claim to know everything there is to know about Digimon, but after joining this site I realize just how false that really is. I run cross country as well as track, and I consider myself a pretty good runner. I run 3 miles in 16:16, 2 in 10:21, and 1 in 4:47. It's xc season now so I hope I'll have to update my 3 mile time often. I am Catholic and extremely zealous for God. If there's anyone out there who wants to learn about Christianity or talk about it, I would be extremely happy to do so. If you don't believe in God, I respect your choice, but I still encourage you to ask if you don't understand something. Just be respectful because I'm treating you with respect. Sound fair? I thought so.

Digimon Fusion
Ok I am getting increasingly frustrated with the dubbers of Fusion. Xros Wars to Fusion I can live with. X Loader to Fusion Loader I can live with. DigiXros to DigiFuse I cannot. Xros Heart to Fusion Fighters I cannot. Taiki to Mikey I cannot. Kiriha to Christopher I cannot. Zenjirou Tsurugi the kendo master to Jeremy Tsurgi the gamer I cannot (seriously they took 1 syllable out of his last name). Akari to Angie I cannot. Shoutmon Xros 2 to Shoutmon Times 2 I cannot. Lilithmon to Laylamon I cannot. Baalmon to Reapmon I cannot. ChibiKamemon to Chibitortomon I cannot (and apparently neither can Archelomon- "Is that even your name?"). DigiMemories to DigiCards I cannot. Shoutmon's attacks: Rowdy Rocker to Rock and Roller (could be worse but I still don't like it), Rock Damashi to Fiery Fastball- just awful because Shoutmon is not based on a pitcher. I now understand why G-SANtos prefers to use the original names instead of the dubbed ones. From now on, I am going to use the original names only for Fusion (I'll still use the dub terms for what I'm ok with) but for the other 5 seasons I'm using dub terms because that's what I learned first. Also, I really hate how Mikey's, Ballistamon's, Starmon's, Cutemon's, Laylamon's, Blastmon's and Bagra's VAs sound but I understand it can take a while for a VA to get into their role so I won't go on a rant about that yet (and I used the dub names there because I liked the Japanese VAs- Japan knows what they're doing). They are getting better. However, they made an ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC choice for Nene. On the other hand, Nene dropped a huge piece of plot in episode 4 that no one knew until near the end of Death Generals. Also the jokes are getting much worse. "I've heard the legend of the Code Crown and of Bigfootmon who lives in a loch... oh wait that's not right..." and "I'll squish them like Bugmon." I also wish someone would finally admit that the leader of the Bagra Army is actually a digimon instead of just calling him Bagra over and over.
