A bit ago, the official Digimon site put up a poll for (part 1 of) what your favorite Digimon added to the reference book in 2021 was.

Recently the poll closed and we have the results!




And the winner is... Shoutmon EX6!

The Digimon that got the most votes of the 105 Digimon added to the reference book in 2021, Part 1, includes 35 Digimon from Komondomon and RareRaremon, the one that got the most votes was... Shoutmon EX6!

With such a wide number of Digimon chosen the results are at least interesting to look at.




The poll for 'Your Favorite Digimon Web Social Art of 2021' had results announced recently.

The poll for 'Your Favorite Digimon Added to the Reference Book in 2021, Part 2' is currently open.

 

[Strontium]

Guess there a lot of Xros Wars fans out there! Interesting results.

 

[Eitaroutarouman]

Wow, really? Sure hope this helps us get more manga entries in the future.

 

[Notus]

I think this in good part thanks to EX6 being a more rewarding final form for Xros Heart. Everyone evolves, not just the google boy and lone wolf partners, and it's a good design to boot.

 

[e105zeta]

Oh manga guy won!

 

[Digiforlife]

wow I didn't expect Lovelyangemon to be this high...and Mitamamon too...looks like Rearise got a lot of attention too

 

[Muur]

Waifumons in 2 and 3, nice

 

[Bancho]

probably my least favorite came in first but my vote came in second so ay, cool.
Sucks my second choice of Shootmon got 0%, though. Sorry dude, I do really love you but my name is Bancho for a reason

 

[Lord Bearmon]

105 Digimon added to the reference book in 2021

They finally corrected it from 106, took them long enough to notice lol

 

[Yamato-san]

I voted for TorikaraBallmon. As I recall, a few others on this forum also voted for it. Guess we're among the few that did, considering it only got 2%, though even that's rather respectable considering more than half the entries only got 1% and even 0% (not sure if the latter means they all failed to get a single vote, or if some of them at least managed to get a decimal percentage).

At any rate, I'm happy for ShoutmonEX6 getting as much love as it did. Guess the Xros Wars manga is a lot more well-known and fondly-remembered than I was expecting (all the more surprising given how almost anything to come out of the Xros Wars era seems to be generally reviled today, at least among western fans).

 

[Bartz]

Well, my choice landed in the 1%, not too surprised but a little disappointed.

On the bright side, at least Bulkmon and Mitamamon did well.

At any rate, I'm happy for ShoutmonEX6 getting as much love as it did. Guess the Xros Wars manga is a lot more well-known and fondly-remembered than I was expecting (all the more surprising given how almost anything to come out of the Xros Wars era seems to be generally reviled today, at least among western fans).

I wouldn't say XW is reviled, but regardless the manga doesn't share that negativity. In fact, whenever it's brought up it's generally in a positive manner as many feel it makes good use of its concepts and characters (well, aside from Nene).

 

[Mon-Ohma]

Xros’ designs definitely haven’t grown on me.

It's more fondly remembered in hindsight thanks partially to the major non-plot related issue people had with it, the lack of official Levels for the XW debut Digimon, being rectified by the Field Guide thus allowing the aforementioned Digimon to be properly integrated into the larger universe hence their greater presence in media not specifically set in Xros Wars.

 

[Pythia]

My choice came on third place, but I am very satisfied with the final top 3.

 

[Tarama]

Love Shoutmon EX6 won this. Great.

 

[Nightwing]

Hopefully this means more manga original Digimon getting added to the Reference Book in 2022, and just some old ones that were missed years ago too.

 

[Sparrow Hawk]

Pleased to see my favorite Bancho, BanchoLilimon managed to land on 2#! Along with LovelyAngemon?! I guess being magical girl digimon won the most fans' hearts eh?

But I don't understand one thing... How did Guilmon X landed on 3#?! How?! Same thing for MetalGreymon X! Less appearances. So I cannot figure this out... But extremely happy!

Didn't expect Kazuchimon and Bulkmon got same equal votes. Thought Bulkmon'd be slightly above all his evo lines. I'm sad Tempomon got 3% votes.... And Runnermon, too.
But I'm surprised Shootmon got zero votes I thought having Devil version Mamemon/Giromon design surely can win.

I'm saddened Mamemon X got 1%. It could be my vote...
Dobermon 1%... Aghhh at least Runnermon gets 3%.

Burgermon Child got good votes and shockingly popular than some evo forms of Pulsemon.

Glad to see Mitamamon and Komondomon got 6% of course, Rareraremon, I guess there might be a lot of "Horror" fans who love this.

I thought Achillesmon and Shivamon can win but to think Shivamon is slightly above Achillesmon in vote numbers...

Can't wait to see the next one.

 

[Mattman324]

Jesus christ EX6 save some for everyone else, this isn't the most lopsided victory but it definitely feels lopsided.

I think this in good part thanks to EX6 being a more rewarding final form for Xros Heart.

Except in story, EX6 is weaker than X7, and in both versions, neither is the final form.

I wouldn't say XW is reviled, but regardless the manga doesn't share that negativity.

As someone who dislikes the manga, no, Xros Wars being some malignant hated entry is only a thing in the West.

 

[Bancho]

Xros’ designs definitely haven’t grown on me.

same. I have nothing against DigiXros evolutions as a concept and I find the idea of making the designs of the anime characters and the combining toys as 1 to 1 as possible and EX6 as a concept really cool, but the execution.... is so ugly to me. DigiXroses usually feel way more like toys forced together than actually woven together in a cool or appealing way to me, in my opinion, subjectively

 

[Unknown Neo]

Well this is interesting. Didn't expect this. The other 2/3? I could expect that. I wish I had LovelyAngemon. Wonder why it's not Angewomon.
