I DO NOT OWN DIGIMON ADVENTURE, 02, TAMERS, FRONTIER, OR SAVERS!
Chapter 24: Here We Go!
Adventure Digital World: Location: Gennai's Base
Hiroaki sat at the conference table facing Gennai and the rest of the parents. Saito and their team sat around him while the teens were seated among their parents with their Digimon partners.
"Iramon, huh?" Gennai mused. "Are you sure?"
"That's what Jim and Ninjamon reported," Hiroaki confirmed. "Apparently he has some goon here in our world doing his dirty work building all these control spires."
"There are only three left according to the power banks in the control spires we took down," Saito added.
"Where?" Harry asked, appearing from behind Gennai and heading towards a computer terminal.
"On the coast," Haru said, getting up from his seat to join the digital man and pointed to something on the screen. "And there were plans for more towers for someplace called Server. Nothing appeared to be built yet, but I've got a thumb-drive of what info we could recover. I think there was a message similar to what Jim and Ninjamon found as well. I didn't listen to it though. Just copied the files and got out."
"I'll move the base there immediately," Harry said. "If we take those last few towers out we might be able to finally get in touch with some of the worlds outside our own."
"How long until we arrive?" Gennai asked.
"Within two hours," Harry said.
"Hiroaki, I'd hate to throw you and your friends back into the fray again so soon," Gennai began, but Saito cut him off.
"No worries," the goggle wearing man grinned. "We came here to help get those kids back and if doing this will help us get one step closer, then we're more than willing to act."
"A couple of hours is plenty of time to refresh ourselves," Yumi added. "Don't worry about us."
"We'll be ready too!" Jun added, raising from her seat. Jim nodded while the Inoue siblings voiced their agreement.
"Absolutely not!" Dan Motomiya said. "You all just got back from an actual battle! Some of you even got injured."
"Dad!" Jun and some of the others started to protest, but they were shut down by their parents, with the exception of Jim who was having a rather hushed conversation with his dad. James Kido didn't look happy, but was nodding his agreement. Jim gave his father a grateful look before moving to sit by the adult DigiDestined.
Hiroaki did not envy the other kids who were arguing their continued involvement with their parents.
"Hey guys," Saito said placatingly. "We can handle it. All of the control spires are relatively nearby and if our previous experience from the last twenty-four hours was any indication, only one of the spires is going to pose a problem. The five - sorry, Jim - six of us should be able to handle it. Let your partners recharge as well. Digivolving for the first time can be taxing, so it's important for you and them to be properly recharged. I bet they're all hungry too."
The younger Rookie Digimon in the room let out a chorus of agreement.
"So it's settled!" Haru said cheerfully. "Let's go get something to eat, peeps!"
Hiroaki watched with amusement as Haru and Saito managed to wrangle the anxious teens and their worried parents out of the conference room to get food. Hiroaki was slower to follow, noticing Jim hovering back.
"Something wrong?" Hiroaki asked.
"What? No! I'm fine," Jim said, shifting uneasily on his feet. "But… I do want to ask you something."
"Shoot."
"While I was with Ninjamon and Crabmon in the control room back at our control spire… Ninjamon just… killed a Hagurumon. And Crabmon threatened to harm the other…" Jim said softly. Hiroaki noticed the young man's partner shift nervously. "I know that when Digimon die their data returns to Primary Village to be reborn, but…"
"It is a bit disconcerting to see someone - even Digimon - take each other out," Hiroaki mused. "As a doctor's kid - and someone who once studied to become a doctor yourself - such a disregard for another living being's life must seem… cruel."
"Yeah," Jim said softly, looking away.
"I know that it's unavoidable a lot of the time," Jim said, frowning at the far wall. "A lot of the Digimon that we're going to be facing are out to kill us and won't think twice about ending my own life. Mr. Motomiya wasn't wrong to be worried about us. We're essentially going to war. I… I don't want to hesitate and get someone killed just because I don't want to hurt anyone."
"Hey," Hiroaki said, placing his hands on Jim's shoulders. "Breathe, Jim. It's alright. Taking another life is… not something we should take for granted. Just because a Digimon will be reborn… it doesn't mean that taking their lives should be taken lightly either. A lot of the time they don't remember who they were in their previous lives, so can you really say they're being reborn? A life is still a life whether they remember their previous ones or not. It's not something we should disregard, but you are right about it being unavoidable at times. A bad Digimon isn't just going to stop because we tell him not to. Digimon like Myotismon, Kyushamon, Iramon… they want to wipe us out. It really is kill or be killed, but I'm glad you feel this way, Jim, because taking a life should never be easy.
"We… Saito and our friends… we treated our first adventures here in the Digital World like a video game. There were good Digimon and bad Digimon and it was our job to defeat the bad ones to protect the good ones. We didn't think anything of it at first because… well, they weren't human. We knew that they were just data and would just be reconfigured and be reborn later. But… as we got closer to our partners, became friends with other Digimon… we recognized how alive they were. They have personalities and feelings and lives to live at the end of the day. And when we lost our first friend… it felt life it would if one of our friends back in the human world had died. It didn't matter that they would be reborn, their life as we knew it, as they lived it, was over. It was a big wake up call for us and a life lesson we never forgot. To recognize this from the start, Jim, is something I find quite remarkable. It shows your maturity.
"While I wish I could just tell you not to worry about it, tell you that the lives of the Digimon we'll take are all for some greater good that'll benefit and save so many more lives, including those of my sons and your brother… I can't. You're right. We are essentially at war, and war is never glorious. We can take heart in knowing that our actions will help and save others, but we should never forget about those that end. When we're done taking out these control spires, maybe we can make a memorial of some sort."
"...I'd like that," Jim said softly. "They were just doing what they were told."
Hiroaki wrapped his arm around the young man's shoulders and led him towards the cafeteria.
Frontier Digital World: Location: A Few Kilometers Outside Breezy Village
If the sun was any indication, it was nearing mid-afternoon when Shinya was finally able to make out the hazy green blur on the horizon that was sooner or later going to become the forest that surrounded Breezy Village - their destination for the night.
"How much further?" Umi groaned. "We've been walking all day!"
"Only a few more kilometers to go!" Bokomon said joyfully. "We should be there by nightfall."
"Terrific," Rikuto grumbled.
"Oh come now!" Bokomon scolded. "Cheer up! We're making great time. And we've already found one of your beast spirits! Though if you do want to speed things up, we could see about flying via the beast spirit Yutaka now possesses."
Shinya looked over at their eldest member and saw Yutaka frowning down at his D-Tector.
"Oh!" Umi gasped. "That would be amazing! But… Is that safe? No offence, Yutaka! It's just…"
"The beast spirit was pretty violent," Yutaka agreed, frowning. "I'm not looking forward to turning into it, but… Bokomon does have a point. I need to get used to transforming into this thing if it's going to be of any use and it would speed things up if we could fly."
"Are you sure?" Rikuto asked, seeing the young adult's hesitance.
"Yeah," Yutaka sighed, before waving them all back. "Just keep your distance. I don't want anyone to get hurt while I'm transformed."
"An excellent idea," Bokomon chirped before dragging a protesting Neemon back beyond a nearby rock.
Shinya looked around and found another larger rock formation to hide behind with Umi and Rikuto.
"Here I go!" Yutaka called out in warning. "Execute! Beast Spirit Evolution!"
Shinya could hear the usual sounds of whiring and energy charging that emitted from their transformations before it became quiet. Straining his ears, Shinya could hear the soft clink of armor and the hiss of steam. A low hum sounded before he heard the tread of heavy footfalls and the shiiiiing sigh of meal sliding together. A gust of unnatural air blew over their location making Shinya and his friends flinch, but after a moment of silence he became brave enough to peek around the rock.
Standing there was the great metal dragon from that morning, but unlike before - when it was wild and attacking - the great beast was looking down at it's clawed - hands? - and flexing its wings.
"...Yutaka?" Shinya called out carefully.
The beast let out a grumble before staring the young boy down with silver eyes ringed with copper.
"Shinya," it rumbled, the mechanisms around it's mouth sputtering and hissing softly as it spoke. It sounded like Yutaka's voice if he was speaking through Darth Vader's respirator.
"Oh, wonderful!" Bokomon cried. "You have control, my dear boy! Very impressive. I knew you could do it."
"Wow! You're huge!" Neemon pipped up.
"How does it feel?" Rikuto asked, stepping out from behind Shinya.
"...Wired."
"Wired? Don't you mean weird?" Umi asked.
"No…"
"Are you okay?" Shinya asked, noticing how stiff his older friend moved.
"Heavy," the dragon grunted. "So… much… input."
Then the great beast shuddered and the wings fanned out wide. Shinya watched as the silver-copper eyes flashed red.
"Error."
"That's not good," Rikuto grunted as he pulled Shinya and Umi back behind the rock.
The metal dragon let out a roar that had everyone covering their ears.
"System overload. … Not computing. Error. Error. Err…. RRRRROOOOOOOAAAAARRR!"
Umi shrieked as the rock they were standing behind shuddered with the force of an impact from the other side.
"Crap!" Rikuto said, pulling the younger two away and over to the rock Bokomon and Neemon were behind. From there they could see Yutaka-dragon banging its head against the stone even as it started to crumble from under the force of the blows.
"He's going to have one hell of a headache when he's through," Umi hissed sympathetically.
"I'm just glad he's not attacking us," Neemon whimpered. "Takuya and Koji were terrifying when they were like that."
"And here I thought the lad had it. Oh well. It is a beast spirit. If it were easy, I suppose anyone could do it," Bokomon sighed.
"Is he going to be okay?" Shinya asked.
"Oh yes, I'm sure," Bokomon said. "They all are in the end."
After Yutaka-dragon managed to come back to its senses, Yutaka returned to human form, crouching down and cradling his aching head in his hands.
"I'm going to say that's a hard no on a flight out of here," Rikuto chuckled as he offered the elder teen a hand up.
Yutaka groaned out a laugh before standing back up with the aid offered to him.
"No. I don't think I'm going to be turning into Ginryumon for a while. It's incredibly hard to move in that form. It's not control over the spirit I'm struggling with, it's this weight and operation of the damn thing. It's even worse than when I was trying to manage transforming into Tetsukomon," Yutaka groaned.
"Your age might be what's working against you," Bokomon mused. "I know that there were concerns that you might be too old to wield a Legendary Warrior's spirits, but you were chosen just as the others were."
"What does his age have anything to do with it?" Umi asked.
"That, my dear, is not what I'm completely sure of, but from what I gathered from Lady Ophanimon and Sorcermon, most Digimon have an affinity for human children. The younger you are, the better it seems. Your human logic doesn't seem to apply much here in the Digital World. Of course, we do follow the rules of physics and most forms of logic, but they're more like… guidelines than actual rules as to how things work around here. It is believed that the more grown a child is, the harder it is for them to adapt to the… eccentricities of the Digital World. For Yutaka, as someone on the cusp of adulthood, some aspects of wielding the spirits are more difficult to manage in comparison to someone as young as Shinya, who still has quite the imagination and is more likely to go along with something without wondering how it works even though it might not be what an adult would consider logical."
"Wait… are you saying it's all in my head? I thought I worked out all of those sorts of problems when I was working on transforming into Tetsukomon." Yutaka frowned, glaring down at his D-Tector.
"Perhaps, but the beast spirits are different. It's a new transformation to master," Bokomon argued.
"Different how?" Rikuto asked, also frowning.
Shinya winced, knowing that Rikuto had had the same roadblocks as Yutaka while transforming.
"Emotion," Neemon said. "The Beast Spirits are more emotional. Koji and Takuya were more angry. JP had more fear. Zoe and Tommy were happy. Actually, Tommy was kinda silly when he first transformed, so maybe his was more funny?"
"You mean humorous. Funny is not an emotion you nincompoop," Bokomon snapped.
"Emotion, huh?" Yutaka said, looking more thoughtful.
"What were you feeling when you were transformed into - Ginryumon? Is that what you said your Beast Spirit is called?" Umi asked.
"Yeah, it is," Yutaka mused, before looking contemplative. "It felt like I was wearing weighted clothing and my movements were sluggish so I guess I was… worried? It only seemed to be getting heavier. I may have started to panic a bit, but I was trying not to, not wanting to get out of control and hurt anyone, so I guess I made myself try not to feel anything, really."
""System overload. … Not computing. Error." That's what you said," Rikuto mused. "If the Beast Spirits feed off of our emotions, then the initial overload may have been because you were panicking, but trying to shut down your emotions didn't give Ginryumon anything to process so it started to malfunction."
"Too much emotion, like panic caused it to overload and not enough caused it to malfunction," Yutaka repeated.
"Maybe try it again and stay calm?" Umi suggested.
"It may just be something that'll take time to get used to," Rikuto said, "like our normal transformations."
They continued to debate for a few more minutes before Bokomon suggested that they continue on to Breezy Village if they still wanted to make it there by nightfall.
"At least he didn't go berserk and hurt anyone," Neemon chirped, trying to stay positive.
Tamers Digital World: Level 5: Forest Level
Kai sighed in relief as they finally left the stretch of flatland with those weird glitched out mud pools. They were back in the forest now and Apemon told them that it wasn't much further. Minami and Alice were riding on Monochromon's back. It'd been a long trek and they were all tired, but were determined to press on, taking turns resting and riding on the larger Digimon's backs.
Kai hadn't realized that he'd zoned out until something white flew past his face.
"Whoa! What was that?!"
He came to a halt and looked around.
"Kai? Are you alright?" Minami asked.
"Something just flew past my face!" Kai said, looking round wildly.
Then he heard something that sounded like giggling. He looked to his left and saw a flash of white.
"There!"
Kai hurried towards the white giggling thing but when he got close it vanished into the branches overhead.
"Kai! Don't just run off!" Alice scolded. "Get back here."
"Sorry," he grumbled, glaring up at where he last saw the white thing before Minami let out a shriek.
"Eeeek!"
Kai spun around and saw that Minami's arms were pinwheeling as she started to topple off of Monocromon's back. Alice tried to grab her but Minami had already slid back too far. With a scream Minami fell out of sight behind Monochromon.
"Minami!" Kai cried, racing back towards his friends. "Alice! Is she okay?!"
Alice ignored him, sliding off Monochromon after the other girl. Monochromon was shifting nervously, clearly not wanting to move in case he stepped on the two girls somewhere beside him, but also wanting to make sure that they were alright. Kai gave him a reassuring pat as he moved around him and crouched down next to the girls.
"Minami, are you alright?!" Kai asked.
"I'm fine," the brunette sighed. "Just startled. I think that thing you were talking about flew in front of me too."
That's when they heard the giggle again and two white things flew around them.
"What are they?!" Alice asked.
"DigiGnome." Apemon grunted. "What you do here?"
The white blurs slowed to a stop and Kai took a look at the tiny white figures. Kai had no idea how to describe them as far as what they reminded him of, but their faces were reminiscent of those cute chibi frogs you see on a lot of children's merchandise. He couldn't tell if they were covered in feathers or fur, but they definitely were soft looking.
"DigiGnomes?" Alice repeated.
"Wish makers," Apemon said.
"They're so cute," Minami giggled, cooing at them as the two darted over and swirled around her making that giggling sound. "What are they doing here?"
At her question the DigiGnomes darted away before turning around chittering at them.
"I think they want us to follow them," Minami said, getting to her feet and absently rubbing her bottom where she landed after her fall.
"Are you sure you're alright?" Kai asked, seeing this.
"Yes," Minami said, blushing slightly and quickly bringing her hands together in front of her, "I was just startled. I'm not hurt."
Kai nodded and they all turned to follow the DigiGnomes, who led them to a river where there were four more of them.
"Now what?" Kai asked just as the - now six - little white creatures swarmed them and started tugging them towards the water. Kai struggled for a moment against the two pulling on him.
"Enter the water. The way is open! Come through."
Kai blinked in surprise, glancing at the girls to see if they heard too. If Minami's wide eyes and Alice's contemplating expression was anything to go by, they had.
"They want us to enter the water," Alice explained to the confused group of Digimon behind them.
"Then go," Apemon said, stepping right into the river. A few steps in he disappeared.
The Goblimon and Shamanmon freaked out and raced into the water after their leader, disappearing as well.
"Let's go," Alice said, squaring her shoulders and wading in after them. A pair of Dobermon racing forward to flank her before they all disappeared. Grapleomon, Jijimon and Babamon were the next ones to follow.
Kai looked at Minami.
"Together?" he asked, holding out his hand.
With a shy smile she took his hand in hers. "Together."
Kai beamed. "Let's go, Monochromon!"
"Right, partner," the large dino said. "By the way, why is your face red? Are you getting sick?"
"Huh?!" Kai cried, feeling his cheeks heat up at his Digimon's words. The two DigiGnomes still hovering around him giggled.
Minami only giggled, a bright red flush of her own on her cheeks as she faced forward and pulled him along after her into the water. Kai followed, clutching her hand in his, wondering what was going to happen as they neared the point where everyone was vanishing.
One moment they were wading through the river, and the next they were on solid ground. Looking around, Kai noticed Alice and the others who'd gone through before them, but what really caught his eye was the expanse of… nothingness around them. There was just a flat stretch of rocky ground stretching out for as far as he could see.
"Where… are we?"
Savers Digital World: Location: Unknown
Chika had her eyes clamped shut against the bright light that flashed after the portal was activated. She felt as if she were in a wind tunnel so she tightened her grip on both her brother's hand and Ikuto's arm. She could feel her father's reassuring grip tighten on her shoulder as well. After a disorientating minute, the light softened and everything seemed to settle around her. Tentatively, she eased open her eyes and was met with the sight of a towering purple armored figure standing before them.
"I see you made it back. Well done, Daimon Masaru," the large Digimon said.
"I told you guys," Masaru said, his tone smug. "DATS has smart people, Craniamon."
"So we see," another armored humanoid Digimon said, stepping forward. This one was wearing white armor with a red helm and cape. Several more armored beings came forward then as well, and that is how Chika and the others were introduced to Dukemon and the other seven Royal Knights. Some she recognized from the time the Royal Knights had attacked the human world to destroy it under orders of Yggdrasil when the human and digital worlds had been in danger of colliding. It was interesting to see how they ranged in size from towering two-story building heights like Craniamon, Dukemon and Omegamon, to being the height of a really tall human, like Magnamon and Duftmon. Dynasmon, Lord Knightmon, Kentaurosmon, and Ulforce V-dramon were all somewhere in-between those heights.
Then there was the building she now found herself in. It was like standing in a grand hall that reminded her of an old Roman ruin restored to its glory days with domed ceilings, towering columns and clean marble walls and flooring, but there was a more modern sheen to the place, especially where she could now pick out computer terminals and several screens, many depicting the events happening in the other Digital World that they were trying to reach. She also took note of the various machine-type Digimon that wandered in and out of the grand hall she was standing in. There were also several Pawnchessmon darting around apart from the two accompanying Miki and Megumi.
Chika was so amazed at seeing all of the new Digimon and examining her new surroundings that she zoned out during whatever planning was being made by her father and the other scientists with the Royal Knights.
"Chika," Ikuto hissed. "Come on!"
"Huh?"
Chika turned to her friend in time to see him and Masaru walking away from where everyone else seemed to be going.
"Let the smart techno people do their jobs," her brother added. "We're in charge of getting living arrangements and food sorted."
"Ah. Right!"
She hurried after the two boys and their Digimon partners, following her big brother as he showed her around. Apparently he'd spent some time in the Royal Knight's Unity Hall before he'd made his way back to their home world. Thankfully the layout of the RKUH was fairly straight forward. The building was H shaped. The left part of the H was where they'd arrived and held a lot of the monitoring stations that were normally utilized to keep an eye on and receive reports from the various lands in the Digital World, but were now mostly used for monitoring the situation in the other world. It was also where, apparently, the Royal Knights could get into contact with other Digital Worlds. The Right part of the RKUH was where a lot of the living quarters and spaces were located. It was occupied by a number of other Digimon - most notably Swanmon - who were in charge of keeping the place tidy. The middle part of the H was not only a connecting hallway between the two long sections of the building, but also supposedly held a room only the Royal Knights could access that allowed for travel between worlds outside of their respective Human and Digital Worlds. Masaru told her and Ikuto how he'd only been allowed in there once to see if it was feasible to travel to the other Digital World where the endangered DigiDestined were. Apparently the gateway was functional, but access to the right world was blocked somehow. He really couldn't explain it to her since he didn't really understand what the Royal Knights called the Dimensional Corridor with all it's laws and rules and stuff. That's hopefully what their Dad and the other scientists were going to figure out.
The next several hours were spent getting everything sorted in the human living quarters and running food to the hard working scientists, technicians, and Digimon trying to establish contact with one of the four Digital Worlds they were trying to reach.
Then an alarm began to sound.
A loud wailing claxon echoed throughout the entirety of the RKUH. Digimon were fleeing in terror - screaming at each other to lock down the building while the Royal Knights raced towards the middle corridor of the H, Masaru and Agumon right on their heels - which was impressive since most of them were three times his height and a few of them literally flew. It was as Chika, Ikuto, Falcomon and Piyomon hurried to catch up that they realized that they were heading for the special room with a gateway to other worlds. They managed to slip into the room just before the doors swung ominously shut with a click of finality.
Chika took in the room with a quick sweep of her gaze. It was like something out of an American sci-fi flick, the entire space crammed full of lit up computer tech with a hodgepodge of bulky old 80s computer banks and sleek streamlined modern system towers. In the center of the room was an arch with various dials and odometers with jumping and quivering needles, several blinking lights and a large flasher - like those seen on top of first responder vehicles like cop cars and ambulances - lighting up the room a bright red color. Chika realized that this was where the alarm was issuing. Then the space inside the arch began to grow hazy and liquified until it looked like a pool of water.
"Something's trying to come through from an untraceable path in the Dimensional Corridor!" Dukemon announced as the "water" began to ripple and become agitated.
"Any idea what it is?" Omegamon asked.
"No, but it appears to have the right coordinates and access code, giving it clearance," Duftmon reported. "This is no accidental breech."
"The room is sealed and contained," Magnamon reported. "Whatever is coming is not going to get beyond this room without verification from all of us."
"Daimon Masaru, you and the others must stay back," Craniamon commanded. "Let us handle this."
Masaru only nodded before he and Agumon hurried over to the younger two humans and ushered them and their Digimon partners to a corner behind some of the sturdier looking computer banks.
For a moment everything was still apart from the flashing lights and the rippling coming from the archway. Then with a shudder, the center of the arch expanded as if something was pressing against the "water" from the other side before it started to melt back from what looked like an extended hand.
Chika watched in fascination as the hand (covered in a black glove) was quickly followed by an arm and soon a male hooded figure stumbled out of the arch. The figure was tall and wearing a long navy blue coat that covered him from head to toe. The hood was pulled so far forward over the figure's head that Chika couldn't make anything out about his face, but a glint from inside hinted that he may be wearing some form of eyewear. A heavy duty duffle bag was strapped securely to his back, black gloves covered his hands and black combat boots could be seen peeking out from under the hem of the long coat that came to a stop around his ankles. The only notable thing on the figure was a bright orange symbol over their left peck with red lettering that said-
"Does that say DATS?!" Masaru gasped.
The figure rubbed the back of his head, most certainly taking in the wailing alarm and battle ready Royal Knights before holding both hands up in the universal gesture for surrender.
"Easy there, people," a familiar sounding voice said. "I'm not here to cause trouble. In fact, I've been sent here to help and have come a long way to give it."
After a moment the alarm was finally turned off and all the Royal Knights gathered around, but were still tense and ready to fight if this stranger was lying.
"Who are you?" Omegamon asked.
The figure chuckled before bringing his raised hands up to pull down his hood revealing a familiar thick bush of wild spiky brown hair held back by a blue headband and a grey pair of goggles.
Chika gasped when she saw his face.
"No way," Ikuto whispered.
"My name is Tai Kamiya," the man said, looking to be several years older than the Tai Kamiya they'd been watching from another world (he looked about 25). "Representative of DATS from Earth designatio dash 7. I hear that you could use some help traveling between worlds, and - lucky for you - I have years of experience navigating the Dimensional Corridor and hopefully have a way to solve your problems. So!" the man held out a hand. "Shall we work together to save the universe as we know it?"
It was silent for a moment before Masaru strode forward to shake his hand.
How will things go for Hiroaki and his team when they tackle the coast spires? Will Yutaka get a handle on his new Beast Spirit? Where have the DigiGnomes led the Kai, Minami and Alice? And how is this other Tai Kamiya and will he be able to help DATS and the Royal Knights travel through the Dimensional Corridor? Find out Next Time on Digimon: Digital Monsters!
A LOT has happened to me in the last few years and I'm making no excuses. I could blame it on moving to a new state, finally retiring a computer I've been using for 10 YEARS, getting another new job, buying a house, getting 2 new dogs...
I'm just glad I could get something out in the last little minutes of Odaiba Day. Sorry it wasn't more. I can only promise to try harder, but I think my crappy track record speaks for itself. Happy Odaiba Day everyone!
Anybody else watching the Digimon Adventure 2020 reboot?
