I think this could be perfect Digimon movie. Boutmon actually look really good in that animation!

And Palmon is OP for breaking BlackWarGreymon's helmet... I guess having 999 stats in the game could be applied in anime lol

Greymon Vs Greymon (Blue) I didn't expect. ALSO evolved to RizeGreymon instead of MetalGreymon!

So it continues I see. I guess RizeGreymon evolving and Palmon evolving will not be the same evos we will predict lol

Looking forward for more eps!

This short series is getting better. C'mon, Bandai, at this point a live action Digimon movie with CGI monsters wouldn't hurt.

A Digimon Toku has potential. Maybe if it’s done like Cyber Sleuth meets Kamen Rider Ryuki.

Ben 10 has had three live action movies. Detective Pikachu proved that the concept can work on a large scale. I know Digimon won't get the same kind of love at all, but these shorts are a fantastic proof of concept. Palmon emerging from the smoke is absolutely hilarious. Really love the evolution scene to Boutmon. Seeing RizeGreymon was a treat.

Kinda annoying the girl wasn't allowed to evolve or do any real fighting (but Digimon's never been the best at that), but Palmon cracked the helmet, so I guess it's something. These shorts are NOT helping my desire for a live action movie.

Not that i don't mind but why was RizeGreymon in there if it's not in the Agumon Dim?

Even though Detective Pikachu was a success there won’t be any sequels any time soon because the profit margins on the cgi were too thin. It’s a shame.

Still no Palmon Dim.

Probably intended to be a tease for a future DiM release I'd bet. Same reason why Palmon is also in there for seemingly no reason.

Like a second Agumon Dim?

I gotta say I love how the Digimon are rendered in these Vital Bracelet shorts, this one especially.

While Sonic and Pokémon were depicted using hyper realism to try to integrate them into the settings or their live action movies, the Digimon are rightly depicted as CG models manifesting in the real world.

This is most evident with the digital effects that occur while the Digimon manifest and Bulkmon's Digivolution to Boutmon being depicted as a model losing its texture map before reshaping and gaining a new one, a depiction of Digivolution that's been around since the original PlayStation Digimon World and was notably seen in Tamers.

You get finer details in the close-up shots to imply a degree realism but not the uncanny hyper realism of Detective Pikachu or the Sonic movie.

for a product I'm not a fan of, the cinematic shorts and seeing the Digimon rosters they come up with + new digimon reveals are honestly all super hype and nice things that came along with the VB. It does make the product seem way better than it actually is, though, evolving in battle and being able to fight your digimon against the rosters of other DIMs. I haven't tried raid battles or the app's online functions yet so I'm not sure how accurately those are depicted

that might also just be Western movie influence at play? It feels like Holywood really likes its hyper realistic live action adaptation CGs. The live action Transformers movies come to mind and I also think of the Pokemon 20th anniversary Super Bowl commercial that used models similar to the ones in the game rather than anything realistic

The Transformers movies at least made sense since they're meant to be robots disguised as real life vehicles so you weren't going to get away with not having that level of detail in a live action setting and the Bumblebee movie seems to have struck the balance between that realistic level of detail and faithfulness to the source material without looking uncanny like Detective Pikachu and Sonic to the point I kinda wish the live action movie series started with the Bumblebee movie in 2007 despite not hating the actual movies we got.

Pretty much. I mean, I could easily see them doing a DiM card that revolves around Savers Agumon. Of course, a DiM that has a different Digimon evolving into Rize is always possible too

I hope they will keep CG Pulsemon's evo line for the future entertainments. Bulkmon and Boutmon CG freaking looks epic!

It'd be weird for them to exclude Kazuchimon after all this buildup.
