>>23835422 >Jokermon's Owner is literally just Harley Quinn
Also how the heck is Gekkomon misremembering his own attack names

Gekkomon malapropisms アナナ開けエッジ (Anana Ake Ejji;) (from アナイアレイトエッジ; Anaireito Ejji - Annihilate Edge) I can only imagine that Anana comes from Ananas (アナナス) which means pineapple, ake 開け is commence/open. I don't know how it was localized, but I'd personally go with Pineapplate Edge
完璧体 (Kanpeki-tai) (from 完全体; Kanzentai). The name of the second-last evolution stage is kanzentai, which literally means Complete/Perfect Body, and is officially simply written into English as Perfect. It's typically localized as Ultimate in the dub, but in Japanese, Ultimate is reserved for the final stage 究極体 (Kyuukyokutai - "Ultimate Body") which is localized as Mega. It may help to think of the Kanzen 完全 as "complete" in the sense of completion of natural growth, which is why it was originally the final stage, and Ultimate as the "pushed to its limits to evolve even further" state, as 究極 individually mean for something polar, extreme, taken to its ultimate, highest. 完璧 (kanpeki) and 完全 (kanzen) both mean perfect, but kanzen is more utilitarian in meaning of literal completion, while kanpeki is more subjective, like "That was perfect!".
バーニアゼンカイ (Baania Zenkai; Vernier Full Throttle). He says it all in katakana which implies that he doesn't know the meaning, but he uses verniers as MonarchLizamon.
>>23836349 That's the joke, Gekkomon can never remember his evolutions' attack names.

>>23836358 Has he done it with actual attack names before? Because it's not like Armalizamon needed to say "dual-wielding" to use his attacks (in fact he's even malapropised about it while evolved)

>>23836356 Also バナナがないとエッジ (Banana ga nai to Ejji - No Banana Edge) And すし かつ (sushi katsu from the foods) for 押し活 (oshikatsu; fandom)
Episode was solid, though it wasn't visually decent until the last 2/5 of the runtime. I'm more intrigued by GIFT than I was by Tactics. The ending reminded me of that Black Mirror episode with the artificial bees and weaponizing social media and online hate. They did the narrative thing where they had to properly establish to the audience that the MC is able to access his new form at will, that it wasn't just a one-time fluke, even if both times featured desperation. I like that they have two versions of the sequence, a Warp Evolution-esque one for Gekkomon and a standard one for ArmaLizamon, though I miss different evolution stages/methods having different names (進化/Evolution > 超進化/Super Evolution > 究極進化/Ultimate Evolution, ワープ進化/Warp Evolution, ジョグレス進化/Jogress Evolution, Matrix Evolution, Spirit Evolution, Beast Spirit Evolution, Double Spirit Evolution, Hyper Spirit Evolution, Ancient Spirit Evolution, Burst Evolution, etc.) I don't know the purpose of not making a verbal distinction since different stages are properly acknowledged unlike in Frontier and Xros Wars, but it feels like a creative decision based on the world.
Something I've been wondering about with all the baby Digimon is if they retain their personalities/knowledge from when they were evil. Feels like they could be a useful source of intel if they could speak.
>>23836375 The first time he does Double Neutron Blade, he says the attack name correctly, but immediately after as he looks at the blades, he calls it ナットー流 Natto-ryuu. When he uses the attacks, he instinctually gives them the correct names, but when he thinks about it while not using them, he messes them up. Like I can imagine Gekkomon calling MonarchLizamon something else.

I love that Gekkomon is so excited to be a dinosaur with rockets attached

>>23836907 >Something I've been wondering about with all the baby Digimon is if they retain their personalities/knowledge from when they were evil. Feels like they could be a useful source of intel if they could speak. We know they retain memories from Punimon (Hyemon) & Bommon (Commandramon). I'd say yes based on those examples.

>>23836938 It feels so weird since they were decidedly evil for a while. Like what is Sunamon going to do there after being with Arab Epstein for 23 years and killing people? I wouldn't be surprised if Klay returns and amends his ways, but it's just really weird to think about these Digimon with serial killer personalities like RedVegimon.
After going through both a traffic accident and one of my aunts passing away from cancer, I'm finally resuming the Xros Wars manga storytime with chapter 3.
>>23837214 >spoiler That is horrendous to read. Genuinely sorry to hear that.

Bros, why is Kaleido (Lazyleido) slacking so bad on their Beatbreak releases? I really like their subs the most (especially because they include options for Japanese Digimon terms) but they've been falling so far behind lately I have to turn to other subs I don't like as much to keep up in a timely manner. It wasn't like this for most of the season from the beginning up until just a few weeks ago. They used to release a day or so after but now it's multiple days or even a whole week or more late.

>>23837084 Digimon personalities do change with each evolution, so while they have the memories there's probably a safe amount of emotional distance from them
Plus getting regular healthy e-pulse from Glowing Dawn and the mushroom guys probably helps sate any violent urges
My guess is that it would require a strong emotional connection to their past selves to get the babies to fully revert to their old forms/behaviors, like when Commandramon saw Haruomi again
Wolvermon evolution odds? I feel like Perfect has been genericized enough by monsters of the week that even as a consistent jobber, the whole "We've been fighting together for years" thing might be enough to justify it without diminishing Tomoro and Gekkomon accomplishing what they did as total newbies. >Murasamemon >Pandamon >Astamon >Gokuwmon >Flaremon >MarineChimairamon >Lilamon >Proganomon >MarinBullmon >Scorpiomon >Azhdarmon >MonarchLizamon >Mummymon >Jokermon >Vamdemon
Ah, who am I kidding, Perfect is already diminished.

>>23839925 I hope Reina and Makoto get Perfect soon and use them for the next cour and a half Hopefully they get all Ultimate in cour 4 and can use them regularly through the last arc
I don't want another Colon where the sidekicks only get to use their Ultimates twice.

With the episode focusing on fandoms, the enemy being a vampire, and Reina having a furry as a partner, I can't help but wonder if this is an elaborate dig on Twilight. >>23839925 Perfect for Wolvermon seems likely next episode since they are introducing Rose's group there as well. I could see it happening later as well, but with the card game and all, sooner is probably more likely. >>23840292 Tomoro seems really likely to get his Ultimate near or at the climax with the other 3 soon after.
>>23844041 >Reina episode where she's the one who has to infiltrate on her own >Reina in physical danger by a Perfect >Art quality up It's an evolution episode
