  • Thanks !! I've searched this video for so long (Translatet by Google,because my english is sometimes bad)

  • angewomon is still sexy after a couple of years

  • Ken-chan!!! <3<3<3

  • this brings me back nicely.

    childhood well wasted...

  • Love Japanese openings. :D Always better the english openings. English Translation: The story that has begun to revolve at full speed Dyes the earth red The globe is an empty paradise Let's save it with our hands The endlessly continuing sloping road Now, with all your heart run through it, Far Away Stand up! The hero is within me There's no way i can lose to the towering Target Blaze up! My heartbeat is burning up my chest I'm going to take back the forgotten tomorrow A heated battle begins
  • Youtube didn't space it correctly so here is it more legible.

    The story that has begun to revolve at full speed | Dyes the earth red | The globe is an empty paradise | Let's save it with our hands | The endlessly continuing sloping road | Now, with all your heart run through it, Far Away | Stand up! The hero is within me | There's no way i can lose to the towering Target | Blaze up! My heartbeat is burning up my chest | I'm going to take back the forgotten tomorrow | A heated battle begins

  • they should have changed the opening for the english version

  • i miss digimon, instead, now we have those shitty ass cartoons on tv

  • @ZxTartarusxZ Watch Xross Wars, the latest season of Digimon.

  • WIN!!!

  • I freaking love this song!!! english version sucks -_-

  • Memories....

    (also, anyone else noticed how they just vegas'd/premiere'd ken into the opening?)

  • @Terryracoon They did the same thing to Kari in the english opening of 01. I think the japanese opening too, actually.

  • SO NOSTALGIC!!

  • japanese theme da best!!

  • American theme was MUCH better

  • @BlackPoisonxX HELL NO IT WASN'T. US THEME BLOWS! JAP THEME IS ALWAYS BETTER!

    If they actually TRANSLATED the songs into english, and hired an english singer(s), it would be SO much better.

  • @GalaxyTH yeh it was this theme is still good but I prefer the US Version

  • the japanese song themes are amazing!!!!!!in greece,they kept the same opening theme,i mean butterfly-greek version:))))))))

  • デジモンはデジタルワールドと現実世界がうまくリンクしていると­ころが好き!!

  • Ken barely manages to keep his appearance. lol.

  • and this is why mexico kicked ass, they kept everything original

  • @SushiTVism I seriously wish I was Mexican. I could've seen everything properly the first time instead of having to search it up on YouTube five years later. >n<

  • in my country they translate the song~ believe it or not it's not hard to find singer with similar voice for this song.

  • @AngelofSatire ,I've heard it was licensing issues that made using the original music impossible ,but that could just be a cop-out. In other countries they were uncut and had the OSTs.Tamers was not that bad when it was brought here, in fact I liked the evolution sound ,not the music,because it fit the show. Basically the show in America was the same ,if not for a few minor changes .

    The arabic dub is deprived of all female characters which equals huge plot elements missing.

  • @BigDogLtd You what!?! But that means no Kari and Angewomon, which means they omitted the explanation for Warp Digivolution. The Arabs shouldn't have bothered.

  • @JASpiring Arabic should mabye think for once

  • @BigDogLtd I doubt that we couldn't have gotten correct music if we wanted. We got the animes themselves yes?

    Eh, there were specific changes they did but whatever.

  • @BigDogLtd ya Arabic dub keeps the songs and everything the way it is, but they ruin shinaks ( digivolving ) u knw that digivolve in arabic dub is calling their brother from the digi-base?! lol, they never showed angewomon full digivolving but they keep the stories as it is that's why arabic dub is a lil bit better i guess, i watched digimon adventure - frontier arabic dubbed and orginal with english subbed + savers and now xros

    and digimon adventure 02 english dubbed

    orginal is just the best

  • If they did the dub with the original music score and opening/ending then that would have been great.

    As for script, I may be biased but I love how Ken/Kaizer quotes the Wizard of Oz AND Days of Our Lives in Episode 8.

    "This decision must be done delicately. Delicately. You have until the sand's run out to choose. And it isn't long, pretty boy. It isn't long."

    "Like sands in the hourglass, so are your friends' lives."

    Or so it says in the script I checked. Too lazy to go and see.

  • great upload Miharuchan!!

  • The English Digimon is good dialogue wise - however, take this with a grain of salt as since I don't understand Japanese, I only can compare the dialogue through the Eng subtitles in the original. I've been told that subtitles can't fully represent the dialogue as the translation can sometimes be inaccurate.

    The original version is really good though. Especially in the music department. That's undeniable...

  • The biggest problem with the English Digimon's dialogue is not the translated dialogue but the added dialogue. It's an endemic problem in dubs of children shows to include bad puns and inserting voice work over what were originally silences. This sadly tends to hinder the atmosphere that the makers were trying to make.

    As for inaccuracy of translation not that much is lost in translation in subbed anime, Japanese wordplay is more often built around the written word over the spoken one.

  • its 100000000000000000 good

  • the english dub can't beat the original japanese version no matter what.

  • HAHAHAHAHHAHA, DONT KIDDING ME!

  • nintendo is right, if we didnt see original japanese anime, we wouldnt know how much ours suck. at least they had different openings for each season. until english digimon frontier, we had the same breath of crap (digimon, digital monsters, digimon are the champions x2, chaange into digital champions to.....) regardless i have to agree we strawhatcrew, nice name btw, english dubbers make their own stories out of anime (4kids) (someone pours lighter fluid on themself and strikes a match)

  • im totally AGREE with u... the english version is so annoyyyying that i'll cover my ears each time i hear it...

  • I hate folks who complain about English localization. It's no secret that television production companies are made out of idiots who would bastardize a perfectly good franchise in hopes of avoiding parental support groups but for what Saban did wrong, they did right.

    The series was still Digimon, all the key ideas we needed to know where clear and we weren't deprived of any important plot elements.

    At least it didn't receive the treatment series like Gatchaman, Saint Seiya, and One Piece got.

  • @HyperSonicSquall your totally right, who cares if an anime is missing a 1 second scene where a character punches another.

    The only time U.S localization is bad is when you watch one piece(a certain someone missing a cigar and having smoke come out his mouth) or pokemon(one word: donuts)

  • Ah come on guys, shut up! Until YouTube, you guys were probably pretty into the English Digimon! You can't deny the fact that in the 90s, it was awesome and good and it's still a childhood classic! Show it some respect!

  • Believe me I loved English digimon and while they messed up the song and some dialogue they did improve some of the other dialogue a great example would be genisis of evil but still the english theme song sucks compared to this

  • yaay xdd i think sooo :D xd!

  • The question is not whether the dub was good, the question is whether the original was better. It was.

    The dub is fine and more than that it was quite accurate plot-wise. Most changes were to names, censorship of violence, and removal of cultural references.

    Still The music and voice work weren't nearly as good and some of the name changes are head-scratchers, especially in the dub of Digimon Frontier. Don't even get me started on the hideousness of the layered voices for combined forms.

  • @ilikenintendo2005 - The only issue I had with teh ENGLISH dub version, was that they freaking changed the opening theme and made it into that typical generic random low key, pop rock version. That alone only made the show a bit meh to listen. The voices are fine, but why take this great, dramatic, epic themed out? They should have just changed the lyrics, this is what defined digimon for me over pokemon. IT WAS ALL TOO EPIC.

  • Digimon brings back memory when I was a little kid ^-^

  • the guitar tab i got for this sounds nothin like it...

  • hanahnini: in german it's: ich werde da sein! i don't know in english -.-

  • i love this! i've always preffered the japanese theme songs than the english ones.... i think the english versions don't really fit....

  • cleaning comments

    只是因為中途小賢加入

  • very funny.

    Wormmon is not run but jump.

    ^^

  • i tink dats cuz he gt no legs. he so cute!!

  • Season one opening = Butterfly

    Season 2 opening = Target Akai Shougeki

    thats it

  • It's awesome.

    Akai Shougeki is packed with life, valour and as much emotion as the first OP =D

  • what??

    okay, i'm confused now...

    isn't "Target -Akai Shougeki-" the first opening of digimon 02??

    if it isn't, what's the first opening, then??

    if it's "Butter-FLY", isn't it the 1st season's opening??

  • I feel sorry for Ken. You can just tell he was thrown in there but had to be cut short for time issues.

  • Comment removed

  • i think both is very nice!!!!!!!

  • i think your right but i like both

  • See...No Montines after all...

  • My personal favorites since I've become a member of the Preventers and also for the battle against the Montines dictatorship in Aquinas School.

  • what are you talking about?

  • fox kids ruined the whole damn theme...i love the japanese opening.

  • darn right topsyturvy84, it looks like the american dubbers can't make their own anime, so that they remake it and make it worse and even worst

  • Hi 5 pal,I'm glad that my comment wasnt thumbs down.Whiew.

  • Hahas,it's totally thumbs up.

    Personally,I feel that the best is to just add english subtitles,to retain the original feel of the whole thing.

    But they had to dub,so endure past that.But they had to go change the theme song also.And make it some,urgh,crazy nonsensical wanna-be.

  • @topsyturvy84 i know the only thing they should have done is translated it

  • @topsyturvy84 I will agree the Japanese songs are better, but at teh same time the english ones are nostalgic, as that's what most of us grew up on.

  • What R U guys talking about this song is the same as the first 1 in Mexico and Japan @ least.

  • this song called: targer Akai

  • Thank you very much! From now on I'm not going to forget it!!!

  • I was searching for ages to watch the 2nd opening, so THAN you for uploaded it!!!

  • What is the name of the song?

  • Target-Akai by Wada Koji

  • isn't Ai Maeda singin any of the digimon savers songs??

  • One of my favoutite songs ^-^

    How it is called?

  • target

  • who is the singer?

  • Kouji Wada, he sing most of the digimon songs and he has return to sing for the digimon savers 2nd op

  • they should have revamped the american one to show ken as a good guy.

  • o.o Ken being the Kaiser was an EXTREMELY important part though...He took up half the series!

  • This one is much better then the dubbed! "Digimon digital monsters Digimon are the champions" song was getting REALLY old.

  • Comment removed

  • @USAJAP1 I agree!And even though I got good ears,I heard like this:"Digimon digital monsters digi (garlic) champions" funny right?

  • yay a person that likes digimon and girls bravo thanks miharuchan this was great

  • Awesome! I love this song it Rocks!

  • I like how Japanese opening songs don't necessarily mention the name of the show. Makes a much better song. :)

  • Lol that's true. No more "Digimon Digital Monsters, Digimon are the champions!" Uggh I was so sick of that

  • Hey, that was memorable. "Digivolve...into Champions...Armor Digivolve..." but I wihsed that they had done a second version that had Mummymona nd Arechemon, was disappointed that all they did had was Ken as the enemy.

  • Ummm they WERE. In the jeep that jumped the cliff. They were in their commonly seen "human" forms.

  • wohhh kool. havent heard japanese version for a while.

  • wow da song really fits da video unlike da other songs for dubbed versions
