You have 3 options here.

Wed, 22 May 2013 20:49:00 -0400

Go someplace you’ve been that you feel in love with. That one place that captured your heart and your spirit entirely, and you feel like no matter how much time you spend there, it;s never enough.
Go someplace you’ve always wanted to travel to. The one at the top of your list. The one you’ve “always wanted to visit, but never really had the time or the money”. You’ll know exactly which one I’m referring to.
Go someplace you end up in. Drive until you run out of road, and then drive a new road. Don’t stop until you get there, wherever “there” is.

Pack your things, say your goodbyes if you’re into that kind of thing, and get up and get out. Don’t worry about what you’re going to do when you get there, just get there. Don’t worry about having enough money to get back, because that’s not what it’s about. It’s about breaking free from familiarity, and ceasing the breeding of contempt. You’ll find out more than you want to know about yourself when you’re your only company. The naked truth is all you’ll know, and every action is going to bare an honest consequence. Don’t wait. Things like this fester with time. It’s a quick decision that will change your life completely, and no matter how long the experience lasts, you’ll carry it in the closest parts of your heart until the day you return to dust.

So after seeing this meme in the Digimon tag for about the billionth time, I’ve decided to actually respond to this critique. Here begins a long and directionless rant.

Although the creator of the image, In-The-Machine(a fan of both franchises), intended this to become nothing more than a light hearted joke and not an attack, it’s taken on a life of it’s own and many people who do post it do so under the false pretense that a) there is only one way to create and design a monster series and b) that Digimon is just a copy of it’s more successful cousin, Pokemon.

Digimon are not biological creatures, but digital, hence it’s name, Digital Monster. The data that they are composed of comes from whatever humans put into their computers and the internet. I can easily see an eight year old kid using the software Paint on his windows 98 computer and drawing an orange dinosaur with wings and guns. That image is then saved and that my friends is how a MetalGreymon is born. Okay, so that’s no necessarily how a MetalGreymon is born, it has to go through a few stages in order to get to that level(Koromon > Agumon > Greymon being one, but not the only evolutionary lines it can take), but that’s not the point. What I’m getting at is that Digimon and the Digital World is a place where anyone’s dreams and hopes can be fully realized, even if they aren’t aware of it. On the flip side, one’s own fears and nightmares can become real. Or at least that’s my pseudoscience behind the designs, there really hasn’t been a canon explanation to where the data comes from, but that seems like a logical jump.

This image completely ignores the Digimon that aren’t just based off of “real life creatures.” Datamon, Poyomon, Apocalymon, Belphemon_Sleep mode), Angewomon, and Puppetmon are just a some off the top of my head. A few of the DIgimon listed are actually derived from stories and myths like Pinocchio, demonology, the bible. Garmmon has actually created an intensive list of Digimon and their corresponding mythologies.

Pokemon, being biological creatures, tend to go on the more natural side, and that’s great and it has clearly worked well for them. Digimon can(but not always) go on the other end of the spectrum when pieces of armor(Chrome Digizoid), metal, and weapons are included into the design, and that’s also great. Do the designers sometimes go a bit overboard with the “missiles, bombs, and knives?” Oh Jesus, of course!

There really is more than one way to create a monster or a monster franchise. It is it’s own genre: Pokemon, Digimon, Monster Ranchers, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and V-Pet(Digimon’s honest predecessor) are just the ones that reached through to the American market. It’s only natural to compare two completely different things that belong in the same genre, but there really is a line. Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura are both magical girl series(and really damn good ones at that), and you may compare the two, but saying one copied the other is stretch, at best.

Again, I have no problem with the image itself. I myself found it humorous the first handful of times I saw it. But when you post it with a “lol digimon sucx it’s a rip off” or a “pokemon is better(but only the first generation”. then you just look like a fucking idiot.
