So basically Koji’s dad left his wife, split his twins up, lied to him about being an only child and that his (real) mom, who was actually the woman his dad left his wife for, died, and probably made him feel bad for not accepting his new stepmom fast enough?? Geez Digimon. These storylines are deep.

I used to despise this season when it was airing, but as a 30 year old I think I was just jealous that I couldn’t transform into a lizard with the power of friendship.

This is my favorite season.  Everyone else seems to dog on it, but watching humans becoming digimon on Jetix was awesome to 10 year old me.

Before I watch this, I just want to say and proclaim season 4 had the best theme song in all of digimon

I'm a little sad that this show has had a lot of hate. There were also some missed opportunities, like not seeing the others with their fusion hybrids, or the other 4 kids having the purified spirits. I still love this show for its unique approach.

The moment Takuya and Koji got fusion spirit evolution while no one else go one was the start of the decline in frontiers

I always felt Frontier got too much hate. I really really enjoyed it.  To me the series kinda like digimon / power rangers in a way with spirit evolution.  

I loved how the kids actually have something to do besides stand there and be a digivolution source.

DIgimon Frontier is my favorite of the franchise honestly. And I grew up watching Adventure, 02, and Tamers. The uniqueness of the DigiDestined turning into digimon was so amazing to me. Without digimon partners, it forced the children to not only be more proactive in their journey but think outside the box when transforming wasn't an option to them. And when it was, what would they do? They now had the power to fight other digimon themselves. What I especially loved about it was that it explored the children's own insecurities and how that influenced  their relationships with each other. Instead of having a partner digimon to talk to, the children talked to each other or their guides.

Frontier's biggest weakness is that it has so many great ideas that don't get executed in great ways. The spirit evolutions is fantastic and thry play it out well, but how the digidestined find the spirits is often by chance. I think it would have been more interesting if the team had to work harder to get the spirits through a side quest that leads to a big confrontation. After watching this video I do think I was in the camp that was too hard on the show when it released, its new take is a fresh way to do the series, especially as it was the fourth entry show they probably felt they needed to do something unique.

"like sora, she dons a hat!"
wow sora is so remarkable

In regards to dub differences with Kouji's backstory in the Japanese version his father never told him that his mother had died, but that Kouji hadn't seen her since his parents divorced. Other than some minor censorship there isn't really a whole lot of differences between the sub and dub. Frontier's dub is actually one of the most accurate to the original version.

This has always been my fav season of digimon ever since I was little from the action to the element system to the kids actually being useful instead of just standing on the sidelines everything about this season just works for me especially the opening in the dub was amazing and it has my fav cast of characters and how each character has their own struggle to overcome I also think the cast benefits from being so small cuz it gives each character their own time to shine well atleast it kinda did anyway

I remember being in daycare and watching this along w/ yugioh almost every day. Man what a childhood :))

Still absolutely love this series. Rewatched it a couple years ago and it still holds up along w/ the previous series.

I always did love this season. Great start but when Koji and takuya fused their spirits I started to get mad cuz the others didn't. Those 2 got 2 more forms than the others.

The Hybrid level digimon of the spirit evolutions are meant to be stronger than your average digimon. That is why Agunimon was able to take down Cerberumon at the very first episode. Even then there are large gaps in power between different spirits, and they can all be influenced by their elements and team work. In addition, the fusion spirits such as Aldamon and Beowolfmon possess all the power of AncientGryemon and AncientGarurumon, making them significantly stronger than average megas.

What really ruins the show's powerscaling are EmperorGreymon and MagnaGarurumon, as it makes no sense that these two would have difficulties fighting against the Royal Knights. Overall I think having the entire team unlock double spirit evolutions and learning teamwork, would have made for a much better later half.

JP being the Avatar of Thunder but still being afraid of it really goes with the whole “our greatest fear is that we are powerful beyond imagination” saying

I always thought Seraphimon, Ohphanimon and Cherubimin were such a cool trio ❤ And I love how Ohphanimon and Seraphimon are Mega forms a nod to Patimon and Gatomon from the Season 1 Digi destined’s Digimon.

I like the idea of humans turning into digimon. It gives the humams something to do besides standing on the sidelines.

I don't think I ever gave Digimon enough credit for being another great intro anime for kids Frontier showed just how action packed the Digital World can really be and it made something very unique with the Spirt Warrior Digimon when they let the kids actually transform this time.
