Odaiba Memorial 2017

[MarcFBR]

Lots of various news due to DigiFes, tri. Part 5, and the Stage Play coming up, among other things.

Decided to put up a thread for Odaiba Memorial, the same as last year, to be nice and calm and relaxing (posted a bit early since for many people it's already 8/1.)

I know lots of people do art or other things on 8/1, so if you want to share feel free. Or just share any Digimon memories you have if you want to.


We have a lot of fun stuff coming up soon.


We are also retweeting various Digimon art people are posting today over on our Twitter.


One particularly fun official image thus far...



Megahouse tweeted out a big image of a bunch of the previously released Digimon GEM Figures.


And Bandai Fashion put up a message from Agumon as well!





The Digimon Music Producer also posted a message...

He thought back fondly on memories of Daiba Park on 8/1. He noted the same flag seemed to be flying there as 'back then.' Apparently today the weather isn't good and everyone should take care.


Also, while not strictly for 8/1, a few days ago he found something interesting, and I thought it was worth posting for August 1st...



While preparing to move an old VHS was found. It contains a TV commercial for the Digimon Adventure Cute Beat Club Album. Neither at the house, nor at the company was there a VHS player... so they were unable to play it.



Also, those who like Arby's and their random anime/game/etc tweets will see something familiar today...



And then Tenya Yabuno, the artist of Digimon V-Tamer posted an image on his Twitter...

Haha. Sorry guys, but a part of me can't help but to see ship tease. Daisuke/Ken, Takato/Juri, Hikari/Takeru. It's good to see all of them together. They look really cool. Daisuke and Ken even nearly match what i have on my shelf atm.

 

[Jay Ukyou]

That's really cool. Is that all of the GEM figures currently available?

 

[MarcFBR]

That's really cool. Is that all of the GEM figures currently available?

It seems to include all the 'larger' releases.

It does not include all of the DigiColle figures.

Happy Odaiba Memorial, everybody!

 

[BlankShell]

Happy first, y'all. Glad it's coming in the midst of yet another glut of good Digimon stuff.

I'm currently at my vacation home; I remember coming here as a kid I used to bring a lot of toys (K'Nex in particular, despite being a die-hard LEGO guy) and try and replicate some Digimon designs. I had a particularly good Clockmon going on at one point.

Not sure how many of you all have seen this, but the Arby's Facebook page released something for Odaiba Memorial Day. https://www.facebook.com/arbys/videos/10155687737496812/

You know, even for the fact I don't particularly care about Digimon franchise except for Appmon, the latter still only does exist thanks to it.
For that, by learning this memorial thing I'm painting a little something

Arby's of everyone did a digimon tribute today! I think i'll stop in next time I go near one!

 

[Unknown Neo]

Yay. A good day today. It's been pretty good for Digimon for a while. Let's hope there's another series coming after Appmon. Meanwhile, we wait for Tri so we can see what happens and when there's a version for 02 and then maybe Tamers.

Wada-san, are you watching us?

Ever since that fateful day you have sadly parted ways with us after all those long sweet years of hand-in-hand Adventure with you through thick and thin--- We look forward and press on.

Despite the smiles on our face, we cannot help at times... Feeling that from this point in our still continuing journey in Digimon.. It is now a bit of a lonesome one without you.

But memories of you, especially through your wonderful legendary works and contributions to our beloved franchise sustains, and reminds us on how beautiful it is to be a part of Digimon as fans.

...It truly is wonderful.

For that, we cannot express our heart felt gratitude to you.

Thank you, thank you very much for being with us in Digimon.



You truly are a legend in both this and the Digital World.

Best I can do right now is my US DVD collection, on my Twitter.
