This was definitely a reset episode, along with a lot of QUALITY unfortunately, but it's all to get things properly set stage-wise for the Tactics arc.

A nice revisit to the In-Training kiddos and something that could have gone so much worse (even if it was basically at the hands of this show's Team Rocket) if they hadn't intervened.

It's likely too early at this point to be pointing towards Ultimates showing up for our crew, but if anyone needs it (and could be earning it sooner) it would be nice for it to be for Reina and Pristimon so they can get out of jobber territory. (though at the same point, we could just be headed towards a 2-parter instead, who knows!)

I mean realistically even if the in training hadn't stepped in, Kyo would've beaten Redvegimon in short order as soon as he arrived and been able to salvage things, so the danger was never really that great

OkInevitable40952026-01-19 03:35

Correct, but in the moment, if you look at in from the viewpoint of the In-Training mons (since the episode does try to frame it from their point of view in parts), they don't know that. The guy that normally feeds them is gone and the other humans that they know are either 1) also not there and 2) is sort of being frozen right in front of them. The other Rookie mons are also all unable to battle so it's either time to step up or watch everyone that they know either get frozen (the humans) and/or turned into the Ministry (all the Digimon).

(Yeah, as viewers, we know that Kyo and Murasamemon would wipe the floor with the Kinoko Gang but there's just enough added suspense there to make you go "uh, they're really not going to do this, right?" Considering that we just had an episode where a team went and did the "hey, we're gonna send a kid into Cold Sleep to reach our goal" it's probably also supposed to be a parallel to that.)

May just be overthinking it but I do think that an episode like this is also supposed to be a way to get Kyo and Murasamemon back out into the field, since the Kinoko Gang is also now officially on board with helping to guard (and probably help feed ePulse) to the In-Trainings.

Mushroom team leader getting his digimon partner deleted right in front of his eyes and then it just keeps getting worse, it's the Jeri situation all over again.

Good resolution by the end though, they got to see that revenge is bad and we now have three more people to ~~feed~~ protect the in-training digimon.

bustermemesgobrrrrrr2026-01-18 05:39

I like some self contained episodes featuring the supporting cast but spending 4 minutes recapping the Mushroom dudes only for them to seek revenge, fail, and get a second chance was not it.

The real dodgy animation didn't help.

Masterness642026-01-18 05:55

Pretty silly episode with some *quality* animation. I don't really mind though. I'd rather they save the budget for the really important episodes, so a couple of low stakes episodes with worse quality isn't too bad. That's the privilege of an anime with 40+ episodes.

Mushroom gang is back with a vengeance, literally. The fact that the leader's Digimon came back as a Vegimon shows us that deleted Digimon can come back which may or may not be important for later.

Best part of this episode hands down was Vegimon getting the shit beat out of him by babies. Hell yeah Poyomon fuck em up!

Surprised that the mushroom gang are actual gonna stick around, at least as guard duty for the babies when Glowing Dawn cant. Wither they'll actually be effective as guards remains to be seen tho.

We also got a bit of Reina lore which was nice to see, but what's really important is that it was probably set up for next episode which from the preview seems to be focused on her and Granit!

This is really exciting! Reina has desperately needed an episode focused (and a W in battle) for a while and Granit has been the Tactics member I've had the most interest in so an episode about them both is really great. Really hope next episode delivers!

> We also got a bit of Reina lore which was nice to see, but what's really important is that it was probably set up for next episode which from the preview seems to be focused on her and Granit!

Given how we already got to know the backstory for Makoto who used to live in Shangri-La Egg, and Kyou who used to be part of the Five Stars, Reina is quite overdue to get her character exposition episode, that can tie in with how she meet Kyou and that could also cover the formation of Glowing Dawn and him quitting the Five Stars

After that i guess we still need to know how Tomoro's brother knew about Kyou, and their confrontation with the Star of Earth, i don't think we will learn much more about old man Yoshimura this season, or those goons from the blackmarket, or the real project that the ministry is working on, those feel to be more end game

Another guy was talking about Raina getting an ultimate evolution, but i don't see that happening for a good while, given how there's a lot of basic world-building left to be fleshed out

Moxey6162026-01-18 08:02

That Redvegiemon was comically evil what the hell

Doomroar2026-01-18 08:09

Redvegiemon is out there making Puppetmon from adventure look like a saint

Flare_Knight2026-01-18 09:10

Yeah, this was such a weird episode. You'd think after the last one we'd move into actual training, seeing what Tactics are up to, or maybe actually trying to deal with Asuka's case. But this really was just a random episode that could've been inserted anywhere after this sanctuary was introduced. This could've happened before Gekkomon digivolved honestly. It probably was written before that point and they just stashed it away. Beatbreak has kind of made that a habit. This is not the first episode that feels completely dropped into the story.

This was truly a nothing episode. Good for Poyomon I guess that he gets a focus episode. Probably won't go anywhere, but in a vacuum that's fine.

Rammboy_70842026-01-18 13:34

The writer of this episode was the same of the Mimicmon one (and you can tell).

Btw wasn't that worthless of an episode, now at the Nirinso Shelter there are 3 more allies that will feed the baby digimon, so Kyo won't be so tired and will be able to fight with his full energy.

Volfaer2026-01-18 10:34

I thought this would be the calmer lower stakes episode after the long streak of plot related episodes, but it wasn't calm at all. Like we saw previously, the emotion felt at the birth of a digimon shapes it alongside the partner personality, which can led to the same person spawning different digimon. That's interesting.

The kindergarten battle class was really nice to see, they are babies, but not defenseless, and we even got Reina crumbs. All in all, the courage of the little ones brought a very possible victory and more allies to the Glowing Dawn.

Next episode will be Reina focused, alongside with the Ludomon kid, probably paving the path for her perfect level.

Rammboy_70842026-01-18 13:34

A quieter and fillerish episode, certainly from a story point of view, but not for what happens.
We had glimpse of Reina's past, Tomoro almost had a cold heart situation and the most important thing, now we have 3 new allies at the Nirinso that will feed the baby digimon, which means Kyo will no longer be tired and will fight at full force in the future.

bestassinthewest2026-01-18 17:47

First episode I’d genuinely call filler but honestly it’s still pretty nice. Even with the um… quality animation. I do hope Nirinso eventually comes into the larger plot (not any time soon though).

srofais2026-01-19 07:54

Probably the weakest episode so far, but there was gonna be one eventually, at least it was more along the lines of the lows from older series where it was just meh and not the low episodes from Adventure:2020 and Ghost Game which would reach the level of being straight trash at times.

StookieSanchez2026-01-19 22:05

Is this an anime I should hop into? Can I just jump in or should I start from the very first digimon game digital monsters with the OG Ty

theWP2026-01-19 22:52

You can just jump in. Digimon generally has unrelated seasons that allow you to start with any season
