This episode has not one, not two, but three separate scenes that all serve primarily to emphasize just how cute Gammamon is and how badly you should want one of your own. So what are Hiro and Gammamon up to this week, you ask? Absolutely demanding that you buy Gammamon merch, that’s what. Cute mascot scenes to sell cute mascot merch While it’s Haru and Gammamon who end up taking on the big bad this week, the preview for next week makes me hopeful that Ruli will fully step up to bat soon. Ruli continues to be proactive, searching for evidence of Hologram Ghost activity. We get glimpses of Angoramon following around behind her, and while it’s possible he could just be haunting her I get the sense that they’re already partnered up. (Toei Animation)Īfter she only appeared for mere seconds last week, it’s nice to see a lot more of Ruli this time around. She may not have much screen time, but she makes her time count. There’s an implication that the existence of Hologram Ghosts is freaking him out, and his opposite of a gung-ho attitude should make him a solid contrast to Hiro and Ruli. In Kiyoshiro’s case it’s mainly to emphasize his fearful nature, which makes for an interesting counter to his role as Hiro’s senior. Though the team isn’t all together yet and the episode primarily centers Hiro and Gammamon, Kiyoshiro and Ruli do still get some more screen time here. With that said, two episodes in I think the show is pulling off this slow approach successfully. If I had to choose a single word to describe the pace at which Ghost Game is introducing and uniting its core trio of heroes I would say “leisurely.” It’s easily slower than the likes of Adventure and Frontier that brought almost the entire team together within twenty minutes, and it’s even slower than Tamers in having its characters meet for the first time. Hiro and Gammamon decide to visit the museum to investigate.


There is a rumor that a huge man fully covered in bandages was witnessed kidnapping people in the area.

Not only was episode two better than episode one, it was the best episode of Digimon I’ve seen in a long, long time. In short, it would have been difficult for any subsequent episode to match or surpass the hype I felt last week.
