Lost Tales: Rise of the Banchos

There are 5 Digimon in the Digimon Encyclopedia that carries the name of "Bancho". After their reveal in 2005 with Bancho Leomon it took nearly 10 years until they all gathered in "Digimon Collectors". The story of the Lilimon who fell in love with Bancho Leomon and wanted to prove her own power and become a Bancho, the Mamemon who wanted to free imprisoned Digimon, the story of the Stingmon who couldn't stand seeing friends getting killed.

The Series Composer of Digimon Ghost Game is Masashi Sogo. Let's learn more about him who also worked previously with Digimon Adventure: (2020). Having worked previously in Digimon Adventure: (2020), as talk about the next work was starting, the Series Composer of the current series, Atsuhiro Tomioka, got sick due to overwork. Due to that Sogo having a good relationship with him, he took over Series Composer duties.

I shared this before, but never in a proper thread about it. So some interesting information from the interview with Hiromi Seki for IGN Korea about her work with the Digimon series since she was a producer in the original animes and now as a supervisor for the new movies. Regarding the Digimon that appeared in Adventure, Bandai allowed them to choose whatever they wanted to fit their stories. When the anime series started they documented the settings of the characters and how they would look in the anime, there were 286 to choose in the start.

The ultimate book "DIGITAL MONSTER 25th Anniversary book -Digimon Device & Dot History-" will be released on February 24. Not only it contains details about the various Virtual Pets released in those 25 years with sprite work and more, but it also contains many back settings. The preview pages for it have already been revealed and 4 pages about the back settings of Digimon were shared (We don't know if there are more back settings in the book)

According to "Digimon Device & Dot History" book, the high-school girl character from the original development was a Perfect Level Digimon, and the strongest of them. It was made with the image of the "strong high school girl" that was popular in the 1990s. But since the focus was in monsters for boys, the concept was rejected. Monzaemon ended up taking her place, but since no one knows what is inside of Monzaemon, maybe it's the high-school girl working part-time.

It took some time, but finally, Flymon will evolve into Vamdemon. I spent yesterday the entire day with Monzaemon as a possible evolution, but I wanted Vamdemon. Had to make this Flymon violent for this. Flymon evolves into Vamdemon

The backstory of Digimon will be a focus on the Device History book. The summary of all of the Digimon Research from the early settings in order to create a consistent basis for future research. Starting from the "Life Simulation 'World'" apps on early computers The story continues with the development of Digimon, their ecology, and the creation of various devices that helps to study more Digimon. It's the perfect summary of the original settings.

Lost content is always something that I dislike, and Magical Witches really suffers from that, to the point that we can't be sure if things mentioned in the last Digimon Profile are new, or just a reference to already existing things from the website and the other projects. Just like Tamagotchi and Digimon, Magical Witches also had their own Channel on Lalabit and they even had a special game that acted as Fortune Telling. However, most of the images and flash files from those websites aren't available anymore, so it's basically lost media.

So, what was the thing in Cyber Sleuth that I wanted to talk about? As mentioned before, there were a lot of things that changed in the localization. In the Japanese version of this, for example, Mirei doesn't call the protagonist a "Cyber Sleuth, devoted seeker of truth, savior" She instead says the protagonist swims the waves of cyberspace and basically calls them a "digital slave and faithful servant of a female detective" and that the protagonist is Sayo's "Destined Person" (運命の人).

The Strongest Digimon Part 1: The First Strongest Digimon

The topic of the "Strongest something" isn't uncommon for many franchises, although some have this as being more "important" due to being a focus for the franchise, and Digimon is kinda of one of them. Digimon is a franchise born to be "Fighting Tamagotchi", so the core of it was to expand on Tamagotchi's original growth system to include a fighting mechanic so that multiple "tamers" could train their Digimon and make their evolve into the perfect fighting monsters

"Digimon Adventure:" is very close to its last episode and a new series "Digimon Ghost Game" will take its place, something that didn't happen for the franchise since Tamers-Frontier. It seems that Ghost Game will talk about some concepts that I like, so I'll explain them. Why am I making this ? A number of reasons. Especially because I started to see some people talking about it making no sense for Digimon to talk about some themes, even with them always being a thing for Digimon and the fanbase simply never knowing about them.

Dynasmon doesn't have a lot of time left, but if Taiki and Shoutmon wants other friends to be summoned, it's possible. Shoutmon asks Dynasmon to find Kiriha. Kiriha was sent to another Zone by Dynasmon. Dynasmon tries to summon Kiriha, but it seems that he is outside of what Dynasmon's power can reach.

Not that the Normal Mode has been set they could finally return to the Sky Fort, but before going, Dynasmon says that another Digimon wants to see them, a Digimon that Dynasmon also summoned. That Digimon is Beelzebumon, that is happy to see that both Taiki and Shoutmon are fine.

Dynasmon confirms that Spadamon passed the test, Spadamon got really stronger since the past. Shoutmon is still asking what all of that was, Taiki asks the same. Dynasmon then asks Taiki a question. How much does he knows about the Weapon Digimon ?

Taiki asks if this Digimon was the one who called for them. The Digimon confirms, it's Dynasmon, the one that should have been protecting LS-tou Zone Dynasmon was once the warrior who used the Weapon Digimon in fights in order to protect that Zone. But now all that was still there, was a small memory. Dynasmon is now going to restore the last of Spadamon's memories.

They have fixed 6 towers, but the Protect Field still surrounds the Sky Fort. Parrotmon reveals that there's another system. However as soon as the 6th tower got repaired, Parrotmon saw something in the system of the Earth Fort. And something appeared.

In the "last" tower, Shoutmon sees what appears to be the next Shadow Guard. The Digimon seems to be happy with them there and calls them "Chosen Hero" That Digimon reveals to be the Digital Hazard Dragon, known since ancient times. Now as one of Barbamon's Shadow Guards, Blast Elite, who protects one of the Condenser Towers.

They enter the first Tower and don't see any strong Digimon. Spadamon asks if they should act right now, but Shoutmon says that the bad ines might be hidden and preparing a surprise attack. So far, there's only a little Digimon there. Spadamk suggests that the little Digimon should be protected and leave the room. The Digimon thanks them, they are really good guys.

After the Digimon regained consciousness after the lighting attack, they ask Taiki what happened. Taiki blames himself for what happened, but Shoutmon replies saying that they couldn't do anything with Barbamon, in fact they are only alive because Barbamon wants that. For now they need to return to Sky Fort, but Parrotmon appears. ROG is already going to the City. Spadamon explains that in certain situations the Sky Fort projects a Protect Field

In 1998 a new Virtual Pet was made by Bandai/WiZ known as "Magical Witches: Four Elements Communication Book". With the appearance of a book, the user would take care of a witch using magical items. In the speelbook (魔法書) lives cute and mischievous witches, the user should take care of them so they could turn into good witches. In the end, they could turn into either Sages (賢者) or Demon Lord(魔王), depending on how the user took care of them.
